美国国务院官员10月15日表示，前美国国土安全部长克里斯蒂·诺姆不再担任特朗普总统“美洲盾牌”倡议的特使，其任命已于上个月到期。诺姆将继续以国务卿克里斯托弗·兰道的高级顾问身份参与该倡议的工作。
Former US Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is no longer serving as President Donald Trump's special envoy for the Shield of the Americas initiative, with her designation expiring last month, a State Department official said on October 15. Noem will continue working on the initiative as a senior adviser to Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau.“Kristi Noem's envoy status expired last month and she is no longer in the role,” the State Department official told CBS News.
“克里斯蒂·诺姆的特使身份已于上个月到期，她不再担任该职务，”国务院官员对CBS新闻表示。“她现在是兰道副国务卿的高级顾问，并继续参与‘美洲盾牌’项目的工作。”
“She is now a senior advisor to Deputy Secretary Landau and continues to work on the Shield of the Americas portfolio.”
此举标志着诺姆的外交职责发生变化，尽管她仍参与政府在西半球协调安全合作的努力。
The development marks a change in Noem’s diplomatic responsibilities, although she remains involved in the administration’s efforts to coordinate security cooperation across the Western Hemisphere.

Noem’s envoy role expires after diplomatic engagementsNoem’s designation reportedly expired shortly before the United Nations General Assembly in New York last month. Despite the change, she continued participating in diplomatic meetings linked to the initiative.
9月22日，她与厄瓜多尔总统丹尼尔·诺博亚会面，后者政府曾将她确认为“美洲盾牌”倡议的特使。
On September 22, she met Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa, whose government identified her as the special envoy for the Shield of the Americas.
她还出席了特朗普主持的该倡议领导人聚会，特朗普在会上公开赞扬了她的工作。“我要感谢克里斯蒂·诺姆出色地完成了工作，”特朗普在讲话中表示。诺姆于三月被任命为特使，此前特朗普因对她管理国土安全部的方式及其顾问科里·莱万多夫斯基的影响力的审查，将其解除国土安全部长职务。她转任外交角色的时间与三月对拉丁美洲和加勒比海五国的巡访重合，其中大部分访问是在她完成国土安全部任期期间进行的。
She also attended a gathering of the initiative’s leaders hosted by Trump, who publicly praised her work.“I want to thank Kristi Noem for doing a really terrific job,” Trump said during his remarks. Noem had been appointed special envoy in March after Trump removed her as homeland security secretary amid scrutiny of her management of the department and the influence of her adviser, Corey Lewandowski. Her transition to the diplomatic role coincided with a five-country tour of Latin America and the Caribbean in March, much of which took place while she was completing her tenure at the Department of Homeland Security.US military weighs using 'mother of all bombs' against Iran in future strikes: ReportLewandowski appeared in photographs taken during some of those visits.

The State Department later clarified that he did not hold a formal position at the department. What is the Shield of the Americas? The Shield of the Americas is a coalition established by the Trump administration earlier this year involving the United States and several countries across Latin America and the Caribbean. The initiative aims to promote cooperation on economic matters, anti-cartel enforcement and other regional issues.
诺姆的工作包括与地区官员会面，包括在华盛顿与厄瓜多尔和哥伦比亚外交官在九月的讨论。她作为特使的公开活动似乎有限，参与活动主要集中在地区外交会议以及联合国大会期间的边会讨论。诺姆的角色现在会怎样？虽然诺姆不再是该倡议的特别特使，但国务院已确认她将继续以兰道的高级顾问身份参与“美洲盾牌”项目的工作。
Noem’s work included meetings with regional officials, including discussions with Ecuadorian and Colombian diplomats in Washington in September. Her public activities in the envoy role appeared limited, with engagements concentrated around regional diplomatic meetings and discussions on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly. What happens to Noem’s role now? Although Noem is no longer the initiative’s special envoy, the State Department has confirmed that she will continue working on the Shield of the Americas portfolio as a senior adviser to Landau.
该部门未提供她职责调整后的具体范围的更多细节。此变动紧随诺姆今年早些时候离开国土安全部之后，随后她转入政府在西半球的外交努力。她的持续参与意味着她将继续参与该倡议，但不再担任特别特使的职务。
The department has not provided further details about the scope of her revised responsibilities. The change follows Noem’s departure from the Homeland Security Department earlier this year and her subsequent move into the administration’s diplomatic efforts in the Western Hemisphere. Her continued involvement means she will remain engaged with the initiative, but without the special envoy designation.
