五名众议院共和党议员周四签署了一封信，敦促特朗普总统取消他上周宣布的俄罗斯柴油交易。
Five House Republicans signed on to a letter Thursday urging President Trump to cancel the Russian diesel deal he announced last week.
共和党众议员唐·培根（内布拉斯加州）、布莱恩·菲茨帕特里克（宾夕法尼亚州）、迈克尔·麦考尔（德克萨斯州）、丹·纽豪斯（华盛顿州）和乔·威尔逊（南卡罗来纳州）与17名民主党同僚一起在信中表示，他们“对该交易特别担忧”。
GOP Reps. Don Bacon (Neb.), Brian Fitzpatrick (Pa.), Michael McCaul (Texas), Dan Newhouse (Wash.) and Joe Wilson (S.C.) joined 17 of their Democratic colleagues in writing they were “particularly concerned” about the deal.
特朗普表示，俄罗斯同意“立即”向全球市场供应30万吨柴油，另50万吨将于11月到货。
Trump said Russia agreed to “immediately” supply 300,000 tons of diesel to the global marketplace, with another 500,000 tons on the way in November.
他补充称，根据协议，如果俄罗斯炼油厂在乌克兰袭击下仍具备能力，将在11月之后再供应400万吨柴油。
Under the agreement, Russia would supply another four million tons after November, if its refineries are capable of doing so amid attacks by Ukraine, the president added.
就在特朗普宣布之际，财政部海外资产控制办公室（OFAC）发布了一项豁免，授权俄罗斯生产商向美国进口柴油燃料。该豁免有效期至2027年4月6日。
In conjunction with Trump’s announcement, the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) issued a waiver authorizing Russian producers to import diesel fuel into the U.S. The waiver is effective through April 6, 2027.
两党议员敦促特朗普重新考虑，并将信件抄送财政部长斯科特·贝森特和国务卿马尔科·卢比奥。
The bipartisan group of lawmakers pressed Trump to reconsider and copied Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Secretary of State Marco Rubio on the letter.
他们写道：“我们敦促政府撤销此许可证，且不再发放进一步的一般许可证，以重启俄罗斯能源交易并为克里姆林宫的战争基金恢复收入。”
“We urge the Administration to revoke this license and not issue further general licenses that reopen Russian energy transactions and restore revenue to the Kremlin’s war chest,” they wrote.
议员们还要求特朗普解释他如何能够“协调”财政部的许可证与现有的对俄能源进口禁令。
The lawmakers also asked Trump to explain how he can “reconcile” the Treasury’s license with an existing ban on Russian energy imports to the U.S.
财政部发言人将《国会山报》引向该部门在社交平台X上上周的帖子，该帖子称该许可证“与OFAC之前采取的类似行动一致”，“并符合所有适用法律”。《国会山报》还联系了白宫和国务院以获取评论。
A spokesperson for the Treasury Department referred The Hill to the department’s Office of Terrorism and Financial Intelligence writing on social platform X last week that the license “is consistent with similar actions previously taken” by the OFAC and “is in compliance with all applicable laws.”The Hill has also reached out to the White House and State Department for comment.
前众议院外交事务委员会主席麦考尔在一份声明中表示，他理解特朗普“降低柴油价格”的愿望，尽管伊朗战争导致柴油价格仍然高于每加仑6美元。
McCaul, the former chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said in a statement that he understands Trump’s “desire to bring down diesel prices,” which remain above $6 per gallon amid the Iran war.
但这位即将离任的议员补充说，他“担心”这笔柴油交易“只会助长克里姆林宫的暴力和破坏”，并指出俄罗斯军队本周已对乌克兰能源基础设施发动袭击——就在特朗普表示双方同意实施“能源停火”之后。在信中，共和党人还敦促总统强力执行旨在加强对俄制裁的立法。
But the outgoing lawmaker added he was “concerned” the diesel deal “will only fuel the Kremlin’s violence and destruction,” noting Russian forces have attacked Ukrainian energy infrastructure sites this week — after Trump said the two sides agreed to an “energy ceasefire.”In the letter, the Republicans also encouraged the president to forcefully apply legislation aimed at boosting sanctions on Russia.
该法律以已故参议员林赛·格雷厄姆（R-S.C.）命名，去年9月在参议院和众议院以强大的两党多数通过。
The law, named for the late Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), passed the Senate and House with strong bipartisan majorities in September.
“制裁应覆盖指挥和融资战争的官员、寡头、银行和国有企业，以及帮助俄罗斯规避制裁的外国银行、影子船队运营商和中介，”立法者们写道，这封信是在特朗普须在三天内对进口俄罗斯产品的国家设定次级关税并指定俄罗斯实体实施制裁的截止日期前三天发出的。
“Designations should reach the officials, oligarchs, banks, and state enterprises directing and financing the war, as well as the foreign banks, shadow fleet operators, and intermediaries that help Russia evade restrictions,” the lawmakers wrote, three days before a deadline for Trump to set secondary tariffs on countries that import Russian products and designate Russian entities for sanctions.
“我们准备好与您的政府合作，确保这部法律实现国会制定它的目的，”信件最后写道。
“We stand ready to work with your Administration to ensure this law achieves the purpose for which Congress enacted it,” the letter concluded.
