特朗普表示,他并未参与对福特胡德杀手尼达尔·哈桑以枪决方式处决并进行直播的计划,同时强调他理解将其作为“榜样”的决定。
President Trump said he wasn’t involved in the plan to livestream the execution by firing squad of Fort Hood killer Nidal Hasan, while stressing that he understands the decision to make an “example” of him.
“他们想这么做是因为他们想树立一个榜样。我没有参与那个决定,但我理解这个决定,”特朗普在周五前往锡拉丘兹期间对CNY Central表示,当时他正在为拿骚县行政长官布鲁斯·布拉克曼的州长竞选活动造势,当被问及他是否批准直播该事件时,他如此说道。
“They want to do that because they want to set an example. I wasn’t involved in that decision, but I understand the decision,” Trump told CNY Central on Friday during his trip to Syracuse, where he campaigned for Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman’s gubernatorial bid, when asked if he approved live-streaming the event.
当被问及他是否批准该处决本身时,他更为直接:“我批准了,”特朗普说。
He was more direct when asked if he approved of the execution itself. “I did,” Trump said.
特朗普的言论似乎与他之前表示支持直播处决计划的言论有所背离。
Trump’s comments appeared to be a step back from earlier remarks that he approved the plan to livestream the execution.
随后,特朗普与CNY Central讨论了尼达尔·哈桑的可怕袭击事件,该事件促使军方宣布自1945年以来首次以枪决方式处决。战争部长皮特·赫格塞斯表示,该处决将于12月3日进行现场直播。
Trump went on to discuss with the CNY Central the horrific Nidal Hasan attack that prompted the military to announce its first execution by firing squad since 1945. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said it would be broadcast live on Dec. 3.
“他冲进去杀死了14人。他严重地、严重地伤害了22人——走进一个房间,就开始对所有人开火,喊出他不该喊的话。所以,我想他们希望借此树立一个榜样,我对此理解得非常透彻,”特朗普说。
“He went in and killed 14 people. He badly, badly wounded 22 people — walked into a room, just started firing at everybody, screaming things that he shouldn’t be screaming. So, I guess they want to have it serve as an example, and I understand that very well,” Trump said.
就在几小时前,当他离开白宫时,似乎支持直播处决的计划。“我批准了吗?绝对批准,”他说。
Hours earlier, while leaving the White House, Trump appeared to endorse the plan to broadcast the execution live. “Did I approve? Absolutely,” he said.
白宫快速反应账号发布了特朗普的最新言论,且表述更为完整,暗示直播问题仍未解决,称他将“对此作出决定”——同时坚持哈桑将以枪决方式处决。“他将通过枪决被处决……我真的不在乎他是如何离开的,只要他离开就好。我认为死刑对他来说是一种非常值得的方式。”哈桑在2009年11月5日得州基地医疗楼内的大屠杀中造成13人死亡、32人受伤。
The White House rapid response account blasted out Trump’s latest and more fulsome language on Trump also suggested the livestream question remained unresolved, saying he would “make a determination” on it — while insisting Hasan would be executed by firing squad“He will be through firing squad. … I really don’t care how he goes as long as he goes. And I think that the death penalty is a very worthy way of going for him.”Hasan killed 13 people and wounded 32 others during his Nov. 5, 2009 massacre inside a medical building at the Texas base.
副总统万斯周五在俄亥俄州举行竞选活动时表示,如果处决过程被广播,他不会观看。
Vice President JD Vance, who held a campaign event in Ohio Friday, said he wouldn’t be watching the execution if it is broadcast.
“我不知道那实际上是否会发生,”他说。“如果最终被直播,我不会去看。”
“I don’t know that that’s actually going to happen,” he said. “If it’s ultimately livestreamed, I’m not going to be watching it.”
