EU外交政策负责人卡雅·卡拉斯周四表示,对乌克兰施压让其投降不是结束与俄罗斯战争的正确方式,她强调应将压力转向莫斯科。
EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas on Thursday said pressuring Ukraine to surrender is not the right approach to ending the war with Russia, stressing that pressure should instead be directed at Moscow.
卡拉斯在布鲁塞尔即将举行的欧洲理事会峰会前强调,欧盟致力于支持基辅,认为应将压力对准俄罗斯而非乌克兰以结束战争。
Speaking ahead of a European Council summit in Brussels, Kallas underlined the EU's commitment to supporting Kyiv, arguing that pressure should be directed at Russia rather than Ukraine to end the war.
关于新的美俄协议允许莫斯科出售柴油燃料,卡拉斯表示:“我们对这场战争的做法截然不同。我们认为必须对侵略方施压使其停止战争,而不是对受害方施压让其投降。”她指出,“挤压乌克兰不是正确做法,因此欧洲一直站在乌克兰一边。”
Asked about the new US agreement with Russia greenlighting diesel fuel sales by Moscow, Kallas said: "We definitely have a different approach to this war. We see that we have to pressure the aggressor to stop the war, not the victim to surrender. " "Squeezing Ukraine is not the right approach, and that's why Europe is standing by Ukraine," she said.
卡拉斯表示,欧盟仍致力于通过制裁对俄罗斯施加压力,她指出该集团正在筹备第22个制裁案。
Kallas said the EU remains committed to maintaining pressure on Russia through sanctions, noting that the bloc is working on its 22nd sanctions package.
她还强调,关于冻结的俄罗斯资产及可能解除制裁的决定权在欧洲各国手中。
She also stressed that decisions concerning frozen Russian assets and the possible lifting of sanctions rests with European countries.
在欧洲理事会峰会的更广泛议程上,卡拉斯表示,欧盟领导人将讨论竞争力、能源、经济失衡、扩大规模以及中东局势。
Turning to the broader agenda of the European Council summit, she said EU leaders would discuss competitiveness, energy, economic imbalances, enlargement, and developments in the Middle East.
关于中东,卡拉斯重申欧盟在该地区作为安全提供者的角色,并呼吁成员国向“阿斯皮迪行动”(Operation Aspides)部署更多舰艇,以加强通过 Bab el-Mandeb 海峡和红海的商船护航。
On the Middle East, Kallas reiterated the EU's role as a security provider in the region and called on member states to deploy additional ships to Operation Aspides, the bloc's naval mission in the Red Sea, to strengthen the escort for commercial vessels through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait and the Red Sea.
卡拉斯还表示,欧盟外长已决定开辟黎巴嫩新任务,但关于黎巴嫩南部在联合国临时黎巴嫩部队(UNIFIL)任务结束后的安全安排仍存疑。
Kallas also said EU foreign ministers had decided to open up a new mission for Lebanon, while questions remain about security arrangements in southern Lebanon following the end of the mandate for the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL).
在欧盟扩大问题上,该集团的外交政策负责人警告不要将进程双边化,认为欧洲国家需要共同努力以加强整个大陆,并表示这样做“非常重要”。
On EU enlargement, the bloc’s foreign policy chief warned against bilateralizing the process, arguing that European countries need to work together to strengthen the continent, saying that doing so is “really important.”
