巴勒斯坦民族倡议组织秘书长穆斯塔法·巴尔古提周三表示，巴勒斯坦事业在共和党于美国国会失去多数党地位、被民主党取代的过程中“发挥了重要作用”。
The Palestinian cause “played a major role” in the Republican Party’s loss of its majority in the US Congress to the Democratic Party, Mustafa Barghouti, secretary-general of the Palestinian National Initiative, said Wednesday.
据美国媒体报道，初步结果显示，民主党在国会两院——众议院和参议院——均赢得多数席位，这对总统唐纳德·特朗普及其共和党而言是一次重大的政治挫折。
Preliminary results showed Democrats winning majorities in both chambers of Congress – the House of Representatives and the Senate – in a major political setback for President Donald Trump and his Republican Party, according to US media.
巴尔古提在一份声明中表示，周二美国中期选举的结果反映了特朗普、共和党与以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡之间结盟的后果。
In a statement, Barghouti said the results of Tuesday’s US midterm elections reflected the consequences of the alliance between Trump, the Republican Party and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
他还表示，这些结果也反映了“为以色列继续对加沙地带发动种族灭绝战争及其在被占领的约旦河西岸的袭击提供掩护”所带来的影响。自2023年10月8日以来，以色列在加沙发动了一场种族灭绝战争，造成超过7.4万名巴勒斯坦人死亡、近17.6万人受伤，其中大多数是妇女和儿童，同时摧毁了该地区90%的基础设施。
He added that they also reflected the repercussions of “providing cover for the continuation of Israel’s genocidal war on the Gaza Strip and its attacks in the occupied West Bank.”Israel has waged a genocidal war in Gaza since Oct. 8, 2023, killing more than 74,000 Palestinians and injuring nearly 176,000 others, most of them women and children, while destroying 90% of the territory’s infrastructure.
与此同时，以色列军队的袭击和占领者对巴勒斯坦人的暴力行为在被占领的约旦河西岸（包括被占领的东耶路撒冷）不断加剧。
Meanwhile, Israeli army attacks and occupier violence against Palestinians have intensified in the occupied West Bank, including occupied East Jerusalem.
自2024年以来，内塔尼亚胡因涉嫌在加沙对巴勒斯坦人犯下战争罪和反人类罪而被国际刑事法院通缉。
Netanyahu has been wanted by the International Criminal Court since 2024 over alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity against Palestinians in Gaza.
对伊朗的战争巴尔古提表示，对伊朗战争的经济影响，以及由此对该地区国家和全球经济造成的损害，“构成了选举结果的另一个主要因素”。2月28日，美国和以色列对伊朗发动攻势，据德黑兰方面称造成数千人死亡，伊朗则通过袭击以色列和阿拉伯国家的美国军事设施进行回应。
War on Iran Barghouti said the economic repercussions of the war on Iran, along with the resulting damage to countries in the region and the global economy, “constituted another major factor in the election results.”On Feb. 28, the US and Israel launched an offensive against Iran, killing thousands, according to Tehran, which responded by attacking Israel and US military facilities in Arab countries.
华盛顿与德黑兰于6月18日签署了一份谅解备忘录并开始谈判，但谈判因在霍尔木兹海峡航行自由与安全保障问题上的分歧而破裂。霍尔木兹海峡是能源和货物供应的战略水道。
Washington and Tehran signed a memorandum of understanding on June 18 and began negotiations, but the talks collapsed over disagreements concerning guarantees for freedom of navigation and security in the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic waterway for energy and goods supplies.
巴尔古提表示，巴勒斯坦事业“在美国各地多个地区的选举中都有强烈体现”，公众对“巴勒斯坦事业的正义性”给予了前所未有的支持。他说，在广大美国公众眼中，这已成为一个“共同的人道主义议题”。
Barghouti said the Palestinian cause “was strongly present in elections across various US regions,” amid unprecedented public support for "the justice of the Palestinian cause," which he said had become a “shared humanitarian issue” in the eyes of broad segments of the American public.
在加沙战争持续之际，民主党候选人已对华盛顿支持特拉维夫表示反对，并呼吁停止向以色列供应武器。
Democratic candidates have voiced opposition to Washington’s support for Tel Aviv amid the ongoing war in Gaza and called for an end to arms supplies to Israel.
