卡塔尔即将宣布一项新的国防合作协议，副首相谢赫·沙特·本·阿卜杜勒拉赫曼·阿勒萨尼周一表示。同时，他呼吁与伊朗进行对话并加强经济联系，以防止进一步冲突。作为国防事务国务大臣的谢赫·沙特在多哈举行的全球安全论坛上指出，卡塔尔正从与伊朗的战争中吸取经验，以更好地保护自身安全，并与邻国共同制定新的国防计划。
Qatar will soon announce a new defence partnership, Deputy Prime Minister Sheikh Saoud bin Abdulrahman Al Thani said on Monday, while also calling for talks and closer economic ties with Iran to prevent further conflict. Sheikh Saoud, also minister of state for defence affairs, told the Global Security Forum in Doha that Qatar was using lessons from the Iran war to better protect itself and develop new defence plans with its neighbours.
他表示，这项新的国防合作协议将有助于卡塔尔应对弹道导弹、无人机攻击以及网络攻击，同时也会重点关注水资源安全问题。他还透露，卡塔尔将很快建立一个本地国防生产基地，通过本地制造或投资国防企业来实现这一目标；该计划将与包括美国、英国和法国在内的地区合作伙伴共同推进。他指出，由于数十年来美国在军事上的投资、培训以及经验交流，海湾地区成功抵御了伊朗对地区的“90%以上”的攻击；此外，位于中东的最大美军基地——乌代德空军基地的扩建工作也将继续按照他们的需求进行。
The planned defence partnership would help Qatar counter ballistic missiles, drones and cyberattacks, he said, also focusing on water security. He also said Qatar would soon announce a local defence production hub, with local manufacturing or investments in defence companies, working with a regional partner and allies including the United States, Britain and France. He said that “more than 90% of (Iran’s) attacks” on the region were countered successfully by the Gulf region due to cooperation with the US, through decades of military investments, training and shared experience and that developments of Al Udeid airbase — the biggest US base in the Middle East — would continue in line with their needs.
谢赫·沙特还表示，尽管伊朗发动了攻击，多哈仍与德黑兰保持着在不同层面的沟通。“我们从未停止过交流，”这位副首相说。他同时呼吁，在美国和伊朗达成和解后，伊朗应与海湾合作委员会（GCC）的六个成员国以及巴基斯坦和土耳其展开对话。
Sheikh Saoud told the Global Security Forum that Doha had stayed in contact with Tehran at different levels despite Iran’s attacks. “We never stop our communication,” the deputy prime minister said. The deputy prime minister called for talks between Iran and the six Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, as well as Pakistan and Turkey, once the US and Iran reach a settlement.
国际盟友也应当被咨询，他说。在此之前，他说卡塔尔正在与巴基斯坦和阿曼合作进行调解，将其比作一场需要决心和韧性的长距离赛跑。卡塔尔警告能源中断谢赫·萨乌德表示，海湾国家可能在冲突后拥有更强的经济和新的伙伴关系，就像他们在之前的危机中所做的那样。“伊朗是我们的邻居，”他说，认为更紧密的经济联系有助于防止另一场冲突，而谈话应建立信任并解决双方的安全关切，互不侵犯协议可能是下一步的选项之一。
International allies should also be consulted, he said. Until then, he said Qatar was working with Pakistan and Oman on mediation, comparing it to a long-distance race that requires determination and resilience. Qatar warns of energy disruptionSheikh Saoud said that the Gulf countries could emerge from the conflict with stronger economies and new partnerships, as they had after previous crises.“Iran is our neighbour,” he said, arguing that closer economic ties could help prevent another conflict and that the talks should build trust and address security concerns on both sides, with a non-aggression agreement among the possible next steps.
他以法国和德国在空客上的合作为例，说明各国如何建立经济联系。卡塔尔副总理表示，卡塔尔和伊朗还共享一个主要的近海天然气田，这使得两国都有兴趣避免进一步的中断。他还警告称，能源领域的持续中断继续向全球发送冲击波，该地区的危机可能会扰乱“从东到西以及从西到东”的供应链。“我们尚未达到能源方面的峰值，”并警告在“未来几天和月份”中可能出现更多困难。
He pointed to France and Germany’s joint work on Airbus as an example of countries building economic links. Qatar’s deputy prime minister said that Qatar and Iran also share a major offshore gas field, giving both countries an interest in avoiding further disruption. He also warned that ongoing disruptions in the energy sector continue to send shockwaves worldwide, and that crises in the region can disrupt the “chain of supply from east to west and also from west to east”.“We haven’t reached the peak with respect to energy,” and warned of more difficulties “in the coming days and months”.He also rejected transit fees in the Strait of Hormuz and said uncertainty over shipping would raise costs for consumers.
他还反对霍尔木兹海峡的过境费，并表示航运的不确定性将增加消费者的成本。谢赫·萨乌德表示，能源中断和其他地区冲突对卡塔尔和海湾国家构成持续威胁，而地区不稳定可能影响海湾国家对欧洲的投资。
Sheikh Saoud said energy disruptions and other regional conflicts pose an ongoing threat to Qatar and the Gulf countries, and that regional instability can affect Gulf investment toward Europe.
