意大利日报《共和国报》周二报道,意大利总理梅洛尼政府正等待下周美国中期选举结果出炉,该国最新一揽子对乌军事援助计划因此仍处于搁置状态。
Italy’s latest military aid package for Ukraine remains on hold as Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s government awaits the outcome of next week’s US midterm elections, Italian daily La Repubblica reported Tuesday.
报援引政府消息人士称,第13批援助方案已准备就绪,但尚未获得最终批准。据报道,意大利上一次向乌克兰运送援助物资是在去年12月。
The 13th package is ready but has yet to receive final approval, the newspaper said, citing government sources. Italy’s previous aid shipment to Ukraine was last December, according to the report.
罗马此前曾向法国总统马克龙和乌克兰总统泽连斯基保证,将在10月批准该援助计划,预计导弹交付将在月底前完成。
Rome had assured French President Emmanuel Macron and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that it would approve the package by October, with missile deliveries expected by the end of the month.
然而,截至周一晚间,负责监督情报机构的议会委员会(Copasir)尚未召开会议审议该法令。
However, the parliamentary committee overseeing intelligence services, known as Copasir, had not convened to examine the decree as of Monday evening.
该援助计划包括乌克兰寻求的“阿斯特尔30”防空导弹,用于保护基辅等城市免受俄罗斯袭击。
The package includes Aster 30 air defense missiles sought by Ukraine to protect Kyiv and other cities from Russian attacks.
该法令需要国防部长克罗塞托、外交部长塔亚尼和经济部长焦尔杰蒂联署。
The decree requires signatures from Defense Minister Guido Crosetto, Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani, and Economy Minister Giancarlo Giorgetti.
报道称,克罗塞托和塔亚尼支持批准,但一些政府消息人士透露,焦尔杰蒂因担心联盟党领袖萨尔维尼可能反对而犹豫不决。
Crosetto and Tajani support approval, while some government sources suggested Giorgetti was hesitating over potential opposition from League leader Matteo Salvini, the report said.
最终决定权在梅洛尼手中,克罗塞托曾私下警告存在需要化解的政治障碍。
The final decision rests with Meloni, and Crosetto had privately warned of a political obstacle that needed resolving.
批准工作已多次推迟,预计时间从7月推至9月,又推至联盟党党代会之后。
Approval has already been delayed several times, with expectations shifting from July to September and then until after the League’s party congress.
政府消息人士现在倾向于等到下周二美国中期选举结束,以评估华盛顿未来的政策走向,并相应调整意大利的立场。
Government sources now favor waiting for the US midterm elections next Tuesday to assess Washington’s future approach and adjust Italy’s position accordingly.
国内政治考量也导致了延宕,包括前总理孔特反对提供武器,以及担心给万纳奇提供政治动力。据报道,意大利官员已非正式要求乌克兰方面保持耐心。
Domestic political considerations are also contributing to the delay, including opposition to arms supplies from former Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte and concerns about giving political momentum to Roberto Vannacci. Italian officials have informally asked their Ukrainian counterparts to remain patient, according to the report.
