联合国，10月29日——希腊总理基里亚科斯·米佐塔基斯周四表示，利比亚东部议会与土耳其最近签署的海事协议“公然违法，无效且作废”，并补充说该协议“完全无视地理事实”。米佐塔基斯在希腊结束联合国安理会主席国任期之际对路透社发表上述言论，他还呼吁紧急达成“国际休战”，以保护黑海的航运——此前周三一艘希腊所有的集装箱船沉没。
UNITED NATIONS, Oct 29 - Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said on Thursday that the recently signed maritime deal between Libya's eastern parliament and Turkey was "blatantly illegal, null and void," adding that it "completely disregards the geography." Mitsotakis, speaking to Reuters as Greece ends its UN Security Council presidency, also called for an urgent "international truce" to protect shipping in the Black Sea after the sinking of a Greek-owned container vessel on Wednesday.
利比亚东部议会上周批准了与土耳其的海上边界协议，招致雅典的谴责，埃及、巴林和阿联酋也予以谴责，称其威胁地区安全和国际法律秩序。
Libya's eastern parliament last week approved a maritime boundaries deal with Turkey, drawing condemnation from Athens, but also Egypt, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates, as a threat to regional security and international legal order.
“它完全无视地理事实，无视希腊岛屿存在这一现实——在土耳其和利比亚的思维中，这些岛屿似乎完全消失了，”米佐塔基斯说，并指责他们试图制造一个无视《联合国海洋法公约》的“既成事实”。
"It completely disregards the geography, the reality that there are Greek islands -- they seem to completely disappear in the thinking of Turkey and Libya," Mitsotakis said, accusing them of attempting to create a "fait accompli" that ignores the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea.
土耳其总统塔伊普·埃尔多安曾表示，欧盟及其他方面对该协议获批的反应没有合法依据，并为安卡拉在东地中海的政策辩护。该协议最初于2019年达成。
Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan has said that reactions from the EU and others to the approval of the agreement, originally agreed in 2019, had no legitimate basis, defending Ankara's policy in the eastern Mediterranean.
自2019年利比亚-土耳其协议以来，希腊已向雪佛龙牵头的一个财团发放许可证，在克里特岛附近勘探天然气，并寻求与利比亚就划定两国海上区域另行达成协议。
Since the 2019 Libya-Turkey deal, Greece has awarded a license to a consortium led by Chevron to look for gas off the island of Crete and has sought a separate agreement with Libya on demarcating their maritime zones.
米佐塔基斯保证，“这些勘探活动没有任何受到任何形式挑战的风险。”米佐塔基斯将利比亚和希腊称为“天然邻国”，他于2019年首次出任总理，目前处于第二个任期，他敦促这个非洲国家直接与雅典谈判，并“非常、非常认真地”对待相关讨论。
Mitsotakis assured "there's no risk that these explorations will be in any way challenged."
黑海船只遇袭事件58岁的米佐塔基斯是在主持一场关于海上安全的安全理事会辩论后对路透社发表上述言论的，而就在数小时前，一艘希腊集装箱船在保加利亚附近海域被海上无人机击中后沉没，这是本月黑海西部船只遭遇的最新一起袭击。
Referring to Libya and Greece as "natural neighbors," Mitsotakis, who first became prime minister in 2019 and is in his second term, urged the African country to negotiate directly with Athens and take the discussions "very, very seriously." ATTACKS ON SHIPS IN THE BLACK SEA Mitsotakis, 58, spoke to Reuters after chairing a council debate on maritime security, only hours after a Greek container ship sank after being hit by naval drones off Bulgaria in the latest strike on ships in the western Black Sea this month.
希腊运营的船只属于世界上最大的油轮船队之列，对黑海地区的贸易至关重要。黑海沿岸国家包括保加利亚、格鲁吉亚、罗马尼亚和土耳其，以及交战的俄罗斯和乌克兰——莫斯科于2022年2月入侵了乌克兰。
Greek-operated ships are among the world's largest fleets of tankers and are pivotal for trade across the Black Sea region, whose waters are shared by Bulgaria, Georgia, Romania and Turkey, as well as warring Russia and Ukraine, which Moscow invaded in February 2022.
“在航行自由问题上，我们确实需要某种国际休战，”米佐塔基斯说，并补充说，允许该地区的粮食通过黑海出口到世界各地是“最优先的事项”。
"We do need some sort of international truce when it comes to the freedom of navigation," said Mitsotakis, adding that it was of "utmost priority" to allow for exports of grain from the region into the world through the Black Sea.
“假设安全通行得到保障，希腊船东将是第一批恢复在黑海——包括从乌克兰——进行贸易的人，”他说，并强调随着租船和保险费用“涨上了天”，航运成本不断上升。目前尚不清楚是谁实施了此次袭击，这加剧了人们对俄罗斯在乌克兰的战争对该地区商业航运影响的日益担忧。
"Greek shipowners would be the first to resume trading in the Black Sea, also from Ukraine, assuming a safe passage is guaranteed," he said, stressing the rising costs of shipping as chartering and insurance expenses have "gone through the roof." It was not immediately clear who had carried out the attack, which added to growing concerns about the impact of Russia's war in Ukraine on commercial shipping in the area.
米佐塔基斯说，乌克兰在经济上依赖其产品的出口：“他们获得了丰收，但粮食现在堆在筒仓里，有腐烂的危险。”“不幸的是，目前俄罗斯似乎对进行实质性讨论不感兴趣，”他说。
Mitsotakis said that Ukraine was financially dependent on exports of its products: "They had a bumper harvest, but the grain is now sitting in silos, in danger of rotting." "Unfortunately, for the moment, Russia doesn't seem to be interested in engaging in a substantive discussion," he said.
红海安全、俄罗斯 米佐塔基斯还呼吁欧盟加强其名为“阿斯皮德斯”的海军护航任务，以保护红海航运。该任务于2024年启动，旨在防范也门与伊朗结盟的胡塞武装的袭击。
RED SEA SECURITY, RUSSIA Mitsotakis also called on the European Union to bolster its naval mission to protect shipping in the Red Sea called Aspides, which was launched in 2024 to protect from attacks by Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthis.
胡塞武装与沙特阿拉伯之间敌对行动加剧，已扰乱石油供应，并加剧了地区冲突扩大的风险。此时距美国和以色列打击伊朗已过去八个月。
Intensifying hostilities between the Houthis and Saudi Arabia have disrupted oil supplies and heightened the risk of a wider regional conflict, eight months since the US-Israeli strikes on Iran.
米佐塔基斯对路透社表示：“我的论点很简单：欧盟有兴趣在世界这一地区以实实在在的资产保持具体存在，我们需要更多国家参与‘阿斯皮德斯’行动。”
"My argument is simple: the European Union has an interest in having a concrete presence with hard assets in this part of the world, and we need more countries to participate in Aspides," Mitsotakis told Reuters.
他说，希腊、意大利和法国已作为该任务的一部分部署了“资产”，但这“显然不够”。外交官对路透社表示，截至9月下旬，该行动有六艘军舰参与。
He said Greece, Italy and France have deployed "assets" as part of the mission and that was "clearly not enough." Diplomats told Reuters as of late September there were six warships operating as part of the operation.
胡塞武装本周表示，他们袭击了沙特军用飞机，并在曼德海峡附近击退了沙特支持部队的推进。曼德海峡是红海重要航运通道。
The Houthis said this week they had attacked Saudi military aircraft and repelled an advance by Saudi-backed forces near the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, an important Red Sea shipping route.
米佐塔基斯说：“如果我们真的想向海湾国家发出信号，表明我们认真对待他们的安全，同时我们也保护对欧洲贸易绝对不可或缺的关键动脉和水道，我们就应该愿意向世界这一地区部署更多资产。”
"If we really want to send the message also to the Gulf countries that we take their security seriously, but we also protect the critical arteries and waterways that are absolutely indispensable for European trade, we should be willing to deploy more assets to this part of the world," Mitsotakis said.
在被问及美国总统唐纳德·特朗普本月早些时候取消对俄罗斯柴油出口制裁的举动时，米佐塔基斯重申希腊支持对莫斯科实施制裁。
Asked about US President Donald Trump's move earlier this month to lift sanctions on Russian diesel exports, Mitsotakis reaffirmed Greek support for sanctions on Moscow.
他说：“我们认为，我们需要对俄罗斯施加经济压力，让其承受更多财政痛苦，以发出非常明确的信号：只要他们延长这场战争，就将承受非常具体的经济后果。”
"We believe that we need to put economic pressure and impose more financial pain on Russia to send a very clear signal that as long as they prolong this war, they will suffer very specific economic consequences," he said.
