独家报道：智库称英国致力于履行全球责任实为“过时的外交政策”的表现。
一份智库报告警告称，目前英国军方过于侧重全球事务而忽视了国内防御，因此政府计划增加的国防开支很可能造成更大的资源浪费。
Exclusive: Thinktank says Britain’s drive towards global commitments is symptom of ‘outdated foreign policy’ The UK’s military is too focused on global commitments at the expense of domestic defence, meaning the government’s planned increase in defence spending is likely to result in even greater waste, a thinktank report has warned.
据“过渡安全项目”研究人员的分析，在欧洲各国中，英国的军队最为注重海外事务，其国防预算中近四分之一都用于五大洲的各项军事任务。
According to an analysis by researchers at the Transition Security Project, Britain has the most overseas-oriented military among European nations, with almost a quarter of the defence budget spent on commitments across five continents.
