亚特兰大,10月31日——美国国务卿马尔科·鲁比奥周六表示,国际社会对在黑海推行有限停火的兴趣日益浓厚,以确保俄罗斯和乌克兰的能源与粮食运输畅通无阻。

ATLANTA, Oct 31 - US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Saturday said there was growing interest by the international community in facilitating a limited ceasefire in the Black Sea to ensure unfettered energy and grain shipments by Russia and Ukraine.

鲁比奥在新闻发布会上表示,美国正在审议土耳其和印度提出的让粮食运输恢复运行的方案,同时美国仍在推动通过谈判达成更广泛的战争解决方案,这场战争现已进入第五年。

Rubio told a news conference that the US is reviewing proposals by Turkey and India to get grain shipments moving, even as the US continues to press for a broader, negotiated settlement of the war, which is now in its fifth year.

俄罗斯对乌克兰的全面入侵成为二十国集团外长为期两天会议的焦点议题,部分原因是俄罗斯外长拉夫罗夫出席了会议,尽管欧洲和加拿大领导人提出反对,认为邀请他将使俄罗斯的侵略行为常态化。

Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine took center stage at a two-day meeting of foreign ministers from the Group of 20, in part due to the participation of Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov over the objections of European and Canadian leaders, who argued that including him normalized Russia's aggression.

会议结束时未能就世界最大经济体面临的无数问题达成联合声明或协议。

The meeting ended without a joint statement or agreement on the myriad issues facing the world's largest economies.

鲁比奥为邀请拉夫罗夫辩护,称如果不与俄罗斯对话,就不可能以外交手段结束战争,但他承认这种协议短期内不会出现。他表示,美国经常与乌克兰领导人沟通,尽管乌克兰外长未获邀请。

Rubio defended the invitation of Lavrov, saying it would be impossible to end the war diplomatically without talking with Russia, but admitting that such a deal was not on the immediate horizon. He said the US spoke frequently with Ukrainian leaders, although Ukraine's foreign minister was not invited.

他说,在停止袭击黑海运输粮食、在某些情况下运输能源的船只等局部协议方面,兴趣正在增长——如果不能说是势头的话。

He said there was growing interest - if not momentum - in partial deals such as halting attacks on ships carrying grain and, in some cases, energy, in the Black Sea.

鲁比奥在世界20大经济体外长为期两天的会议后对记者说:“这正在威胁世界的粮食安全,在某些情况下也威胁能源安全。”会议暴露了各国在乌克兰战争和中东战争问题上的巨大分歧。

"This is threatening the world for food security and some energy security as well," Rubio told reporters after a two-day meeting of foreign ministers from the world's 20 largest economies, which revealed big rifts over the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East.

鲁比奥说:“我们希望达成这一点。这解决不了战争,但至少解决了战争的一个独特方面。”他补充说,尽管尚未实现,但通过谈判达成解决方案仍然是美国官员的首要任务。

"We'd like to achieve it. It doesn't solve the war, but at least it solves a unique aspect of it," Rubio said, adding that a negotiated settlement remained a top priority for US officials, despite the failure to get there yet.

“目前正在进行一场非常恶劣的战争,一场非常具有破坏性的战争,”鲁比奥说,并补充称,鉴于破坏活动和误入北约领空的无人机袭击等非正规手段,这场战争已经威胁要升级蔓延到其他国家。

"There's a very nasty war going on, a very destructive war," Rubio said, adding that the war was already threatening to escalate to other countries given irregular efforts at sabotage and drone strikes that wandered into NATO airspace.

加拿大外长阿南德在接受路透社采访时表示,她本不会选择邀请拉夫罗夫,但她利用这个机会直接当面质问他关于俄罗斯于2022年2月发动的全面入侵乌克兰一事。

Canadian Foreign Minister Anita Anand told Reuters in an interview that she would not have chosen to invite Lavrov, but she used the occasion to confront him directly about Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

“我直视他的眼睛,指责俄罗斯进一步非法入侵乌克兰、绑架乌克兰儿童、袭击黑海上的乌克兰船只,所有这些都是令人发指的,所有这些都违反国际法和国际人道法,”阿南德说,并引述了她在周五闭门全体会议上的发言。

"I stared him in the eye and called out Russia's further illegal invasion of Ukraine, the stealing of Ukrainian children, the targeting of Ukrainian ships in the Black Sea, all of which are reprehensible, all of which are contrary to international law and international humanitarian law," Anand said, citing her remarks during a closed-door plenary session on Friday.

阿南德表示,她已与乌克兰外长西比哈以及印度外长讨论过在黑海实施有限停火,以及暂停袭击乌克兰电力基础设施的事宜。

Anand said she had spoken with Ukraine's foreign minister, Andrii Sybiha, as well as her counterpart from India, about enacting a limited ceasefire in the Black Sea and putting a moratorium on attacks on Ukraine's electrical infrastructure.

阿南德说,许多对话方都在推动某种形式的停火,高度关注巩固粮食供应链,并在即将到来的冬季前促成停止袭击乌克兰电网和能源基础设施的协议。

Anand said a number of interlocutors were pushing for some kind of ceasefire, with a huge focus on shoring up food supply chains and brokering an end to attacks on Ukraine's electrical grid and energy infrastructure before the coming winter.

“随着乌克兰进入冬季,我们必须立即解决这些问题,”她说,并指出自9月联合国大会以来,加拿大一直在就黑海停火进行重大且具体的磋商。

"We have to address these issues now as Ukraine approaches the winter," she said, noting that Canada had been engaged in significant and specific talks about a Black Sea ceasefire since the United Nations General Assembly in September.

她说,印度和埃及是受影响严重的两个国家,它们希望确保本国船只和水手的安全。乌克兰全力参与了这一议题,但俄罗斯尚未表现出愿意推进的意愿。

India and Egypt were two countries that were heavily affected, and wanted to ensure that their own ships - and sailors - remained safe. Ukraine was fully engaged on the issue, but Russia had not shown it was willing to move ahead, she said.

据俄罗斯通讯社报道,拉夫罗夫周五对记者表示,莫斯科在乌克兰冲突问题上的立场没有改变,俄罗斯不能接受乌克兰成为“俄罗斯联邦合法安全利益的军事威胁”。

Lavrov on Friday told reporters that Moscow's position on the Ukraine conflict was unchanged, and Russia could not accept Ukraine as a "military threat to the lawful security interests of the Russian Federation," according to Russian news agencies.

鲁比奥周五敦促二十国集团参与者在可能的领域开展合作,因为几乎每个国家都面临着错综复杂的经济和地缘政治挑战。

Rubio urged G20 participants on Friday to cooperate where possible given the complex web of economic and geopolitical challenges facing nearly every country.

“因为我们都面临这些挑战,所以我们必须共同努力加以应对,”他说。“我们国家的未来取决于我们是否愿意理解这样一点:虽然我们的利益并不总是一致,但我们应当始终寻求在利益一致的时刻和领域共同推进这些利益。”鲁比奥对记者表示,他在会议间隙与拉夫罗夫简短交谈了美国总统特朗普和俄罗斯总统普京下个月在亚太经合组织会议期间以及12月在特朗普位于迈阿密的多拉尔高尔夫度假村举行的二十国集团领导人峰会上会晤的机会。

"Because we all face these challenges, we must all work together to address them," he said. "The future of our nations depends on our willingness to understand that while our interests may not always align, we should always seek to work together to advance them when and where they do align." Rubio told reporters that he spoke briefly with Lavrov on the sidelines of the meeting about the opportunity for US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin to meet at the APEC meeting next month and the G20 leaders summit to be held at Trump's Doral golf resort in Miami in December.

鲁比奥表示,普京出席二十国集团峰会尚无定论。他说不会排除特朗普邀请乌克兰总统泽连斯基的可能性,特别是“如果他出席能带来积极结果的话。” 罗伊特

Rubio said there was no firm commitment for Putin to attend the G20 summit. He said he wouldn't rule out the possibility that Trump would invite Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, especially "if something positive could happen as a result of him attending." REUTERS
