加利福尼亚州长加文·纽森周六表示，美国对以色列的军事援助“必须附加条件”。他在新罕布什尔州为可能参加的2028年总统大选拉票时形容，这一立场正日益成为民主党的共识。
California Governor Gavin Newsom said Saturday that US military aid to Israel "has to be conditioned," describing the position as increasingly becoming the Democratic Party's consensus as he campaigns in New Hampshire ahead of a potential 2028 presidential run.
纽森在接受《华盛顿审查员报》采访时表示：“援助必须附加条件。”他提到了被占领约旦河西岸的定居者暴力事件以及以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡的政策，他称这些政策破坏了“两国方案”的前景。
"Aid has to be conditioned," Newsom told the Washington Examiner, citing settler violence in the occupied West Bank and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's policies, which he said undermine prospects for a two-state solution.
纽森说：“比比·内塔尼亚胡在将自己与世界其他地区以及美国人民日益隔绝方面做了一项‘卓越’的工作。”他补充说，“他造成的损害是无法估量的。”纽森将以色列在加沙的战争称为一场“道德灾难”，但拒绝具体说明哪些形式的军事援助应面临条件限制，同时指出了“铁穹”等防御系统与进攻性武器之间的区别。
"Bibi Netanyahu has done a remarkable job of really isolating himself from the rest of the world and increasingly from the American people," Newsom said, adding that "the damage he's done is incalculable." Newsom called Israel's war in Gaza a "moral catastrophe" but declined to specify which forms of military assistance should face conditions, noting the distinctions between defensive systems such as Iron Dome and offensive weapons.
他表示，美国的援助应推进人权原则，包括在莱希框架下——这是一项1997年的联邦法规，禁止美国政府资助与严重侵犯人权行为的“可靠信息”相关联的外国军事单位。
He said US aid should advance human rights principles, including under the Leahy framework -- a 1997 federal rule prohibiting the US government from funding foreign military units linked to "credible information" of severe human rights violations.
这番言论发表之际，民主党人对向以色列转让武器的反对情绪日益高涨。
Democrats oppose His remarks come amid growing Democratic opposition to arms transfers to Israel.
大多数参议院民主党人在春季投票阻止了一项武器出售，而100多名众议院民主党人在7月反对了一项单独的法案。
Most Senate Democrats voted in the spring to block a weapons sale, while more than 100 House Democrats opposed a separate measure in July.
以色列计划于10月27日举行选举，纽森表示这可能会影响这场辩论。
Israel is scheduled to hold elections on Oct. 27, which Newsom said could influence the debate.
纽森此前曾批评内塔尼亚胡，同时也表达了对以色列的支持，包括在2023年访问该国会见哈马斯袭击的幸存者。
Newsom has previously criticized Netanyahu while expressing support for Israel, including visiting the country in 2023 to meet survivors of the Hamas attack.
今年3月，他称自己曾将以色列描述为“种族隔离国家”是“一种遗憾”。
In March, he called his description of Israel as an "apartheid state" a "regret."
