英国首相安迪·伯纳姆表示，俄罗斯干涉欧洲政治的企图凸显了英国必须加强与欧盟关系的必要性。
Prime Minister Andy Burnham says Russia's attempts to meddle in European politics highlight why Britain must strengthen ties with the European Union.
吉尔·劳勒斯 伦敦 — — 俄罗斯干涉欧洲政治的企图表明，英国必须与欧盟建立更紧密的关系，首相安迪·伯纳姆周一表示，并认为“现状还不够好”。伯纳姆表示，俄罗斯干涉欧洲各地民主投票的企图，包括英国2016年欧盟成员资格公投，凸显了加强英国与邻国联系的重要性，这些联系在脱欧多年后被削弱。
JILL LAWLESS LONDON — Russia’s attempts to meddle in European politics show why Britain must forge a closer relationship with the European Union, Prime Minister Andy Burnham said Monday, arguing that “the status quo is not good enough.”Burnham said that attempts by Russia to interfere in democratic votes across Europe, including Britain’s 2016 EU membership referendum highlight the importance of strengthening the U.K.'s links with its neighbors, years after they were weakened by Brexit.
他在下议院对议员们表示，不寻求与英国于2020年离开的27国集团建立更紧密的关系将是“玩忽职守”。
He told lawmakers in the House of Commons that it would be “a dereliction of duty” not to seek stronger ties with the 27-nation bloc that the U.K. left in 2020.
此番表态是在伯纳姆上个月在工党年会上表示“脱欧弊大于利”，以及英国与欧盟现有的基本贸易协定正在制约国家发展之后作出的。他表示，他将寻求就新关系达成政治共识，未来选项包括重新加入该集团。
The statement comes after Burnham told the Labour Party’s annual conference last month that “Brexit has done more harm than good” and that the bare-bones trade deal Britain has with the EU is holding the country back. He said he will seek political consensus on a new relationship, with future options including rejoining the bloc.
英国和欧盟周一宣布，将于11月20日在布鲁塞尔举行峰会，作为加强双边关系的一步。伯纳姆表示，双方将讨论食品和饮料的贸易协定、能源和排放交易协议、“新的青年体验计划”以及在移民问题上的更深层次合作。
The U.K. and the EU announced Monday that they will hold a summit in Brussels on Nov. 20 as a step toward strengthening ties. Burnham said the two sides will discuss a trade deal for food and drink, agreements on energy and emissions trading, “a new youth experience scheme and deeper co-operation on immigration.”
他说，峰会之后，英国应就长期关系的不同选项展开“严肃对话”。“如果我们认真促进增长、控制移民、维护我们的价值观和安全，这是我们必须进行的对话，”他说。
He said that after the summit, Britain should have “a serious dialogue about the different options for our relationship in the long-term.”“If we are serious about promoting growth, controlling immigration, upholding our values and security, it is a conversation we must have,” he said.
伯恩汉姆的做法标志着一种转变，此前保守党和工党政府多年来一直避免重新打开痛苦的脱欧辩论。伯恩汉姆仍受其工党前任基尔·斯塔默的承诺约束，即不重新加入欧盟无摩擦单一市场或其关税同盟。
Burnham’s approach marks a departure after years in which both Conservative and Labour governments have avoided reopening the painful Brexit debate Burnham remains bound by the pledge of his Labour predecessor, Keir Starmer, not to rejoin the bloc’s frictionless single market or its customs union.
但这一情况可能在为下届全国大选进行的竞选中发生变化，该大选必须在2029年前举行。
But that could change in campaigning for the next national election, which must be held by 2029.
欧盟欢迎英国态度的转暖，但其领导人警惕英国试图获得仅限成员国才能享有的某些好处。布鲁塞尔峰会原定于7月举行，但因就欧盟“欧洲制造”规则的争执而被推迟，英国称该规则将损害其生产商。
The EU has welcomed Britain’s warmer tone, but its leaders are wary of U.K. attempts to secure some of the benefits reserved for members only. The Brussels summit was initially due to be held in July, but was delayed by wrangling over the bloc’s “made in Europe” rules, which Britain says will hurt its producers.
伯恩汉姆表示，俄罗斯试图影响脱欧。英国立法者和情报机构已警告俄罗斯干涉英国民主机构的威胁日益增加，伯恩汉姆周日表示，莫斯科曾试图影响脱欧公投。
Burnham says Russia sought to influence Brexit U.K. lawmakers and intelligence agencies have warned about the increasing threat of Russian interference in Britain’s democratic institutions, and Burnham on Sunday said Moscow had tried to influence the Brexit vote.
他在接受《政治休息》播客采访时表示，当他在7月成为首相时，他曾询问顾问俄罗斯是否干涉了2016年公投，并被告知答案是肯定的。
Interviewed on “The Rest is Politics” podcast, he said that when he became prime minister in July he asked his advisers whether Russia had interfered with the 2016 referendum, and was told the answer was yes.
政府后来澄清称，莫斯科的干涉尝试未能成功。伯恩汉姆的发言人汤姆·韦尔斯表示，政府认为2016年公投的结果是合法的。
The government later clarified that Moscow’s attempts to interfere were unsuccessful. Burnham’s spokesman, Tom Wells, said the government considers the result of the 2016 referendum to be legitimate.
保守党领袖凯米·巴登诺赫就他所掌握的俄罗斯试图影响公投的证据向他施压，伯纳姆告诉议员们，“有记录表明俄罗斯方面曾试图干涉”英国2019年大选，“这不可能是第一次发生此类事情。”
Pressed by Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch on what evidence he had that Russia had tried to influence the referendum, Burnham told lawmakers that “it is a matter of record that Russian actors sought to interfere” in the U.K.’s 2019 election, and “it is inconceivable that this was the first time.”
俄罗斯长期以来一直声称它不会干涉其他国家的选举或公投。改革英国党领袖、脱欧主要支持者之一的奈杰尔·法拉奇称伯纳姆的说法是“荒唐的”。“根本不存在俄罗斯干涉，而‘俄罗斯骗局’一直贯穿其中，”他在周一的新闻发布会上表示。
Russia has long said it does not meddle in other countries’ elections or referendums. Reform UK party leader Nigel Farage one of the leading backers of Brexit, said Burnham’s claim was “outrageous.”“There was no Russian interference, and the Russia hoax has run all the way through this,” he said at a news conference on Monday.
