多米尼加共和国三名男子正恳求从俄罗斯获救,他们声称自己因虚假的工作承诺被诱骗至该国,随后被送往俄乌战争的战场。

Three men from the Dominican Republic are begging to be rescued from Russia, where they claimed they were lured by false promises of jobs — and then sent to the battlefield in the war with Ukraine.

上周,这三名未透露姓名的男子在社交媒体发布的一段视频中指称,他们被征召入俄罗斯军队,并被派往这场已持续四年的战争的前线。

In a video posted on social media last week, the three unnamed men alleged they were conscripted in the Russian military and sent to the front lines of the four-year-old war.

“我们受到了欺骗,这与外界所说的相反,我们并非知情前来,”其中一名士兵说。“那是谎言。我们是依据雇佣合同被带到这里——来工作的。”根据法律规定,多米尼加国民若想加入他国武装部队,必须寻求政府许可,否则可能丧失公民身份。

“We were deceived, contrary to what is being said, that we came here knowing what we were getting into,” one of the soldiers said. “That’s a lie. We were brought here under an employment contract – to work.”Dominican nationals are required by law to seek permission from the government if they wish to join another country’s armed forces and could lose their citizenship if they do so without approval.

这些多米尼加男子未透露他们何时首次抵达、在俄罗斯待了多久;接受了何种训练(如有);是如何被招募的,或获得了多少报酬。他们也没有说明原本以为在俄罗斯会从事什么工作。

The Dominican men did not reveal when they first arrived or how long they have been in Russia; what, if any, training they had received; how they were recruited, or how much they were paid. They also didn’t share what jobs they thought they would be doing in Russia.

其中一名士兵描述了战场生活的惨状,指控俄罗斯方面将他们视为“奴隶”,且他们面临乌克兰部队的无人机袭击。

One of the soldiers described the grim reality of life on the battlefield, alleging the Russians have treated them as “slaves” as they face drone attacks by Ukrainian forces.

“当那些人把我们送上前线时,有无人机对任何人都不留情面,”他说。“当其中一架撞上你时——轰!它把你炸得粉碎,撕成一小块一小块的碎片。”这些多米尼加男子声称,平均每100名执行任务的士兵中,只有两人能存活。

“When those people send us to the front, there are drones that show no mercy to anyone,” he said. “When one of them crashes into you – boom! It blows you to bits, shredding you into tiny, bite-sized pieces.”The Dominican men claimed that on average, only two out every 100 soldiers survive their missions.

视频中,一名士兵称,来自秘鲁、巴拿马和印度的战斗人员已被从俄罗斯撤出并遣返回国。

One of the soldiers said in the video that fighters from Perú, Panamá and India already were pulled out from Russia and repatriated to their home countries.

巴拿马外交部已安排17名巴拿马人返回,其中包括11名曾为俄罗斯作战的人员;秘鲁已设法让50名本国公民返回,其中包括4名从俄罗斯训练中心逃出的年轻人。印度政府已确保139名前往俄罗斯参军的本国公民获释。

Panama’s Foreign Relations Ministry was able to arrange the return of 17 Panamanians, including 11 who fought on the Russian side, while Peru has managed the return of 50 of it citizens, including four young men who escaped a Russian training center. The Indian government has ensured the release of 139 nationals who went to Russia to join the army.

视频中的士兵敦促多米尼加总统路易斯·阿比纳德尔采取同样的行动。他说:“唯一得不到人们怜悯的就是我们——多米尼加人。”

The soldier in the video urged Dominican President Luis Abinader to do the same. “The only ones who don’t have the benefit of people having mercy on us are us – the Dominicans,” he said.

多米尼加共和国外交部长维克托·伊托·比索尼奥周四表示,他会见了俄罗斯驻多米尼加大使阿列克谢·谢列金,并透露已有30名多米尼加人签署合同参战。

Dominican Republic Foreign Relations Minister Víctor Ito Bisonó said Thursday he met with Alexey Seredin, Russia’s ambassador in the Dominican Republic, and revealed that 30 Dominicans had signed contracts to join the war.

比索尼奥说:“我们已指示驻俄罗斯大使聘请俄罗斯法律顾问,以便在签署个人合同所依据的法律框架内,探讨潜在的后续选项和可能的解决方案。”

“We have instructed our ambassador in Russia to retain Russian legal counsel so that – within the framework of the laws under which the individual contracts were signed – we can explore potential options for follow-up and possible solutions,” Bisonó said.

东部度假城拉罗马纳的代表卡洛斯·德·佩雷斯于9月17日表示,该地区至少有13名年轻人通过社交媒体收到“虚假工作邀约”,如在俄罗斯当厨师、焊工或机械师。

Carlos de Pérez, a representative for the eastern resort town of La Romana, said on Sept. 17 that at least 13 young men in the area were contacted via social media with “false job offers,” such as cooks, welders or mechanics in Russia.

他说:“他们已经掌握在俄罗斯人员手中;正在接受准备、体检,并将被送往前线。”

“They are already in the hands of Russian personnel; they are being prepared, undergoing examinations, and will be sent to the battlefront,” he said at the time.
