美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周六表示,伊朗实际上已放弃研发核武器的计划。这一立场也是其政府在与伊朗的冲突中所强调的核心目标之一,该冲突至今已持续八个月。
US President Donald Trump suggested on Saturday that Iran has “virtually given up” any plans to develop nuclear weapons, one of his administration’s most frequently stated objectives in the war with Tehran, now in its eighth month.
特朗普还称,自2月28日以色列和美国对伊朗发动打击后一直居高不下的油价如今正在下降。
Trump also claimed oil prices were currently decreasing, long elevated after Israel and the US launched strikes against Iran on Feb. 28.
特朗普在离开白宫前往俄亥俄州参加集会时对记者说:“油价正在下跌。目前油价比拜登执政时期还要低。当时他们却对伊朗不得拥有核武器这一事实置若罔闻。”
“Oil is coming down. Oil is right now lower, and it's been lower than it was under the Biden administration, and they did nothing about the fact that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon,” Trump told reporters as he departed the White House to attend a rally in the state of Ohio.
他补充道:“顺便提一下,如各位所知,伊朗实际上已放弃研发核武器的计划。”
“By the way, Iran, as you know, has virtually given up any plans of a nuclear weapon,” he added.
长期以来,伊朗一直否认美国和以色列关于其试图研发核武器的指控。伊朗总统马苏德·佩泽希齐扬在上个月出席联合国大会期间也重申了这一立场。
Iran has long denied accusations by the US and Israel that it seeks to develop nuclear weapons, a position reiterated by President Masoud Pezeshkian during his visit last month to New York for the UN General Assembly.
佩泽希齐扬指出,出于宗教禁令的考虑,伊朗无意发展核武器,并提议在国际监督下稀释现有的浓缩铀储备。
Pezeshkian said Tehran is not seeking nuclear weapons because of a religious prohibition, and offered to dilute its enriched uranium stockpiles under international verification.
不过,伊朗方面也强调,除非美国解除经济制裁,否则该国绝不会在和平民用核计划问题上做出让步或作出结构性妥协。
Iran, however, has maintained that it will not compromise on its peaceful civilian nuclear program or make structural concessions unless the US lifts economic sanctions.
