美国总统唐纳德·特朗普在一条关于南美国家巴西总统大选的社交媒体帖子中，将印度误认为巴西。他声称“今天有1.25亿人在印度总统大选首轮投票中投票。”
US President Donald Trump confused India for Brazil in a social media post about the South American nation's presidential election. He claimed that "125 million people voted today in the first round of India’s presidential election."
特朗普的最新口误是在抨击美国选举制度时出现的。他在周日的 Truth Social 帖子中表示：“今天有1.25亿人在印度总统大选首轮投票中投票。投票结束后不久，结果当天就出来了。”
Trump's latest gaffe came while attacking the American election system. In a Truth Social post on Sunday, he said, “125 Million People voted today in the first round of India’s Presidential Election. The results came out shortly after the vote closed, on the same day."
随后，他将此与底特律、费城以及加利福尼亚州等地的投票情况进行比较，并声称美国大选“腐败”。关于印度的提述在不止一个方面都是不准确的。印度总统并非通过直接全国选举产生，而是由选举团选出。选举采用比例代表制下的单记可转移投票制，通过无记名投票进行。
He then compared that with voting in places including Detroit and Philadelphia, as well as California, and claimed that US elections are “corrupt.”The reference to India was inaccurate on more than one count. India's President is chosen through a direct nationwide vote but is elected by an electoral college. The election is conducted through proportional representation using the single transferable vote, with voting taking place by secret ballot.
特朗普的帖子发布之际，巴西正在举行总统大选首轮投票。右翼巴西参议员弗拉维奥·博索纳罗将于10月25日与左翼总统路易斯·伊纳西奥·卢拉·达席尔瓦进行决选，因为博索纳罗之子在周日的首轮投票中表现超出预期。弗拉维奥·博索纳罗是前总统雅伊尔·博索纳罗之子，他在首轮投票中获得47%的选票，卢拉获得45%。“他睡够觉了吗？”
Trump's post came as Brazil held the first round of its presidential election. Right-wing Brazilian Senator Flavio Bolsonaro is set to face leftist President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva in a run-off on October 25 after Bolsonaro Jr outperformed expectations in Sunday's first round. Flavio Bolsonaro, son of former President Jair Bolsonaro, secured 47 per cent of the vote against Lula's 45 per cent.'IS HE GETTING ENOUGH SLEEP'Trump's latest gaffe drew a wave of hilarious reactions on social media, with some users even questioning whether the US President was getting enough sleep.“The president doesn’t get enough sleep. He thinks there are 125 million voters in India, a country of 1.4 billion. Brazil bro,” one X user wrote.
特朗普的最新口误在社交媒体上引发了一波幽默反响，甚至有用户质疑美国总统是否睡眠充足。“总统睡眠不足。他认为印度有1.25亿选民，一个拥有14亿人口的国家。是巴西啊，”一位 X 用户写道。另一人开玩笑说，“他明天可能会把巴西改名为印度。”指出特朗普帖子中另一个错误的一位用户写道，“更大的问题是，印度人不直接投票选总统。”
Another joked, “He gonna change the name of Brazil to India tomorrow.”Pointing out another error in Trump's post, a user wrote, “Even bigger problem. Indians don't directly vote for the President. India has a parliamentary form of governance, not a presidential form.”“Brazil is just India with a different filter,” another social media user quipped.
印度实行议会制，而非总统制。“巴西就是换了个滤镜的印度，”另一位社交媒体用户调侃道。特朗普早期的失言这并非特朗普首次因疑似混淆国家而登上头条。
TRUMP'S EARLIER GAFFESThe latest mix-up is not the first time Trump has made headlines for appearing to confuse countries.
7月，他在北约峰会上与乌克兰总统泽连斯基会晤期间，讨论美军行动及与德黑兰的紧张关系时，将伊朗称为“日本伊斯兰共和国”。
In July, he referred to Iran as the “Islamic Republic of Japan” while discussing US military operations and tensions with Tehran during a session with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the NATO summit.
在赞扬“爱国者”导弹系统时，特朗普回忆了“亚伯拉罕·林肯”号航母遭袭事件。
As he praised the Patriot missile system, Trump recalled an attack on the USS Abraham Lincoln."
“我们遭到了日本伊斯兰共和国发射的111枚导弹袭击。这些导弹在约一小时内向航母发射，”特朗普说。
We had 111 missiles shot by the Islamic Republic of Japan. They were shot at the aircraft carrier over a period of about one hour," Trump said.
更早些时候，1月，特朗普在达沃斯世界经济论坛演讲时，多次将格陵兰岛称为冰岛，尽管他在谈论格陵兰岛时是关于其领土野心的背景下。
