摩莉·奎尔 海牙，荷兰 — — 上周获诺贝尔和平奖的南非出生的法学家纳维·皮莱周一在接受美联社采访时表示，作为一名法官，她必须先看到获奖的证据，才能相信这一消息。
MOLLY QUELL THE HAGUE, Netherlands — Navi Pillay, the South African-born jurist who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize last week , told The Associated Press in an interview Monday that, as a judge, she had to see the evidence of her win before she could believe the news.
“我收到了书面信件……所以现在我亲自读了一遍，这是真的，”85岁的皮莱说，她因在国际法体系遭受攻击时推动国际法而获奖。
“I received the letter in writing … so now I have read it for myself, and it’s true,” said Pillay, 85, who won the award for promoting international law at a time when the system is under attack.
她的职业生涯从为被囚禁的纳尔逊·曼德拉辩护权利，到领导一个认定以色列在加沙犯有种族灭绝罪的小组，再到在三个国际法庭担任法官。
Her career has ranged from defending the rights of an imprisoned Nelson Mandela to leading a panel that found that Israel committed genocide in Gaza to serving as a judge on three international courts .
“因这种工作受到表彰是非常了不起的，不仅对我而言，也是对我所有同事而言，”皮莱说。
“To be honored for that kind of work is tremendous, not only for me, but for all my colleagues,” Pillay said.
在诺贝尔奖设立125周年之际，挪威诺贝尔委员会旨在“提醒世界，国家和国际法治是我们建立的维护和平、以非暴力方式解决冲突的体系的基础。和平需要正义。”委员会主席约尔根·沃特内·弗里德内斯说道。
On the 125th anniversary of the prize’s inception, the Norwegian Nobel Committee sought “to remind the world that the rule of law, national and international, underpins the system we have set up to ensure peace and resolve conflicts nonviolently. Peace requires justice,” committee Chairman Jørgen Watne Frydnes said.
皮莱的获奖被视为对美国总统唐纳德·特朗普和以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡的高调斥责，因为他们都否定了她所领导的联合国委员会关于加沙的调查结果。这些领导人也一直对国际法院和国际刑事法院持高度批评态度，而皮莱曾在这两个法院担任法官。
Pillay’s win is seen as a high-profile rebuke to U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu , who have both rejected the findings of the U.N. commission she led on Gaza. The leaders also have been highly critical of the International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court, both of which have had Pillay on the bench.
“我重视选委会将焦点放在这一重要领域，因为如果法治不被尊重，这将影响整个世界，”她说。
“I value the focus of the selection committee on this important area, because it does affect the whole world if the rule of law is not respected,” she said.
皮莱对特朗普尖锐地表示批评，特朗普多年来一直渴望获得诺贝尔和平奖，她称华盛顿对国际刑事法院的攻击“完全非法”，同时也是“消极和残酷的”。“国家元首有特殊责任阐明原则，那就是你要尊重法律，尊重国际法，”她说。
Pillay had sharp words for Trump, who has coveted the peace prize for years, calling Washington’s attacks on the International Criminal Court “completely unlawful” as well as “negative and cruel.”“Heads of countries have a particular responsibility to spell out the principles, which is that you respect the law, you respect international law,” she said.
奥斯陆宣布她获奖几小时后，美国国务卿马尔科·卢比奥宣布对国际刑事法院实施广泛的新制裁，该法院曾由皮莱担任法官，此举是其旨在瓦解该机构运动的一部分。
Hours after the announcement of her award was made in Oslo, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced sweeping new sanctions on the ICC, where Pillay once sat as a judge, as part of a campaign to dismantle the institution.
这位八十多岁的老人呼吁各国捍卫法院及更广泛的国际法律秩序，她说她希望看到“集体行动，而不仅仅是言论”来自世界其他地区。
The octogenarian called on countries to defend the court and the international legal order more broadly, saying she would like to see “collective action, not just words” from the rest of the world.
皮莱表示，免于惩罚在各地都不受欢迎，公众渴望正义。她说，人们对俄罗斯和美国等强国既不是国际刑事法院成员，却坐拥联合国安理会席位并能否决任何追究其责任的尝试感到震惊。
Pillay said that impunity is unpopular everywhere and that the public wants justice. People are dismayed, she said, that powerful countries like Russia and the United States are not members of the International Criminal Court but sit on the United Nations Security Council and can reject any attempt to hold them to account.
她因主持联合国加沙委员会的工作而遭到以色列的强烈批评，该委员会去年得出结论，认为以色列在加沙犯有种族灭绝罪，且具有明确意图摧毁加沙的巴勒斯坦人。皮莱驳斥了以色列的回应，称只有美国和以色列对该结论持异议。
She faced strong criticism from Israel for her work chairing a U.N. commission on Gaza, which concluded last year that Israel was responsible for genocide in Gaza with a specific intent to destroy Palestinians in Gaza. Pillay dismissed the Israeli response, saying only the U.S. and Israel took issue with the conclusions.
“我们只是因为他们是我们认为应负责任的一方，才受到以色列的谴责，”她说。人权组织和许多种族问题专家也得出了类似结论。
“We just have this condemnation by the state of Israel because they are the ones that we have held responsible,” she said. Human rights groups and many experts on genocide have reached similar conclusions.
国际刑事法院已对内塔尼亚胡发出逮捕令，指控其在加沙犯有战争罪和反人类罪。以色列强烈否认这些指控。
The ICC has issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. Israel strongly denies the allegations.
皮莱表示，虽然当前世界形势可能看来充满挑战，但她指出，国际法对人类而言是相对较新的发展。“正义来得慢，所以我们不能急躁，”她说。
Pillay says that while things in the world may seem challenging at the moment, she said that international law is a relatively recent development for humanity. “Justice is slow, so we must not be impatient,” she said.
但她敦促人们不要自满，并以法官的视角看待世界。“不要被假宣传欺骗或只是重复口号，”皮莱说，她呼吁大家确保核实证据。
But she urged people not to be complacent and to see the world a bit more like a judge would. “Don’t fall for false propaganda or just repeat slogans,” Pillay said, urging everyone to make sure they check the evidence.
