伦敦,11月4日电——欧洲极右翼政客周三开始与唐纳德·特朗普划清界限,此前民主党在美国中期选举中获胜——但他们大多避免直接批评总统本人。
LONDON, Nov 4 - Europe's far-right politicians on Wednesday began to distance themselves from Donald Trump following the Democrats’ victory in the US midterm elections – but mostly avoided directly criticising the president himself.
这种重新调整值得注意,因为许多领导人在特朗普2024年获胜后曾庆祝与他的意识形态联系,此后其中一些人访问了华盛顿特区,并获得了他的亿万富翁盟友埃隆·马斯克的支持。
The realignment is notable as many of the leaders celebrated their ideological ties with Trump following his victory in 2024, with some of them visiting Washington DC since then and receiving backing from his billionaire ally Elon Musk.
法国国民联盟领导人若尔丹·巴德拉,民调显示该党最有可能组建下一届政府,他典型地体现了这种政治转向。
Jordan Bardella, leader of France’s National Rally, which most polls suggest could form the next government, typified the political shift.
巴德拉表示,特朗普的第二个任期比2017年至2021年的第一个任期更少孤立主义色彩。“美国对伊朗的干预给世界各地的经济带来了非常沉重的后果,”他补充道,但没有提及特朗普是这场干预的幕后推手。
Trump's second term was less isolationist than his first from 2017 to 2021, Bardella said. "American intervention regarding Iran carries very heavy consequences" for economies around the world, he added, without mentioning Trump as being behind that intervention.
在德国,极右翼另类选择党(AfD)联合主席爱丽丝·魏德尔也将失利归咎于伊朗。“特朗普曾向选民承诺不推行干预主义外交政策……这一违背承诺的行为如今反噬了共和党,”她对新闻媒体T-Online表示。
In Germany, Alice Weidel, co-leader of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, also attributed the loss to Iran. "Trump had promised his voters not to pursue an interventionist foreign policy ... This broken promise has now come back to haunt the Republicans," she told news outlet T-Online.
特朗普承认与伊朗的战争在其党派失利中发挥了作用,但表示他坚持自己的决定。
Trump acknowledged the war with Iran had played a role in his party's losses but said he stood by his decision.
生活成本压力 在意大利,执政联盟成员、极右翼联盟党领袖马泰奥·萨尔维尼表示:“美国的选举结果主要受战争、国际紧张局势以及生活成本上涨的影响,其后果直接落在家庭身上。”“希望这次投票能代表着加速结束冲突、重返和平的进程。”
COST OF LIVING PRESSURES In Italy, Matteo Salvini, leader of the far-right League party, which is part of the ruling coalition, said "the American result was influenced above all by the wars, international tensions and the increase in the cost of living, the consequences of which fall directly on families."
意大利前将军、极右翼“国家未来党”领袖罗伯托·万纳奇表示,美国大选结果显示了未能兑现竞选承诺的政治危险。万纳奇此前曾表达过对特朗普“美国优先”民族主义政治路线的赞赏,但此后因外交政策批评过这位总统。
"The hope is that this vote can represent an acceleration towards the end of the conflicts and a return to peace." Roberto Vannacci, a former Italian general who leads the far-right Futuro Nazionale party, said the US result showed the political dangers of failing to deliver on electoral promises. Vannacci has previously expressed admiration for Trump's "America First" brand of nationalist politics but has since criticised the president over foreign policy.
万纳奇对意大利通讯社ANSA表示:“特朗普辜负了期望,未能结束俄乌战争,并发动了针对伊朗的战争。”他认为,由此导致的能源价格上涨以及经济和股市动荡损害了美国中产阶级,并促成了此次选举结果。
"Trump failed to live up to expectations, was unable to bring the war between Russia and Ukraine to an end and launched a war against Iran," Vannacci told ANSA news agency, arguing that the resulting rise in energy prices and economic and stock market turmoil had hurt the US middle class and contributed to the election result.
与特朗普的关系可能成为“选举累赘” 欧亚集团政治风险咨询公司董事总经理、分析师穆吉塔巴·拉赫曼表示,欧洲极右翼领袖出于显而易见的政治利益,正在与特朗普保持距离。他对路透社表示:“他日益增长的不受欢迎程度,尤其是在生活成本问题上,有可能将曾经的政治资产变成选举累赘。”
TIES WITH TRUMP COULD BECOME AN 'ELECTORAL LIABILITY' Europe's far-right leaders were distancing themselves from Trump for obvious political advantage, according to analyst Mujtaba Rahman, managing director of political risk consultancy Eurasia Group. "His growing unpopularity, particularly over the cost of living, risks turning what was once a political asset into an electoral liability," he told Reuters.
拉赫曼表示,极右翼领袖似乎想两全其美:既想收割“特朗普主义的意识形态势头”,又不想被“他总统任期内的混乱和经济动荡”所玷污。
Rahman said far-right leaders appeared to want it both ways: to reap the "ideological momentum of Trumpism" without being tarred by the "chaos and economic disruption of his presidency".
他补充道:“风险在于,特朗普及其‘让美国再次伟大’盟友将欧洲极右翼视为其对抗欧洲建制派斗争中的意识形态伙伴,可能会通过撤回政治支持,甚至反戈一击来做出回应。”
"The risk is that Trump and his MAGA allies, who see Europe's far right as ideological partners in their struggle against the European establishment, could respond by withdrawing their political support or even turning against them," he added.
在少数试图淡化共和党败选规模的人中,有反对派强硬右翼政党“罗马尼亚人团结联盟”的副主席丹·敦加丘。他辩称,有关特朗普“政治死亡”的报道“被严重夸大”。他还说:“唐纳德·特朗普不会自动变成一位没有权力的总统。相反,他将从一位得到共和党多数支持的总统,转变为一位行政与立法机构将更加强烈地相互制衡的总统。”在西班牙,极右翼政党Vox的领导人圣地亚哥·阿巴斯卡尔几乎没有试图缓和其与特朗普拉开距离的举动,他告诉记者,他“在西班牙,而不是在密歇根”。
One of the few to play down the scale of the Republicans' defeat was Dan Dungaciu, vice-president of the opposition hard-right Alliance for Uniting Romanians, who argued that reports of Trump’s "political death" were "greatly exaggerated". He added, "Donald Trump does not automatically become a powerless president. Instead, he moves from a presidency backed by Republican majorities to one in which the executive and Congress will check each other much more intensely." In Spain, the leader of the far-right party Vox, Santiago Abascal, made little attempt to temper his move away from Trump, telling reporters he was "in Spain and not in Michigan".
阿巴斯卡尔说:“我相当不在乎其他地方发生的事。”他过去曾吹嘘自己与特朗普和MAGA运动的结盟。
"I care quite little about what happens in other places," said Abascal, who has in the past touted his alliance with Trump and the MAGA movement.
极右翼政党“恢复英国”的领导人鲁珀特·洛也将共和党的败选归咎于袭击伊朗的决定,称这是一个“灾难性错误”。他还说:“这场战争取得了什么成果?绝对没有任何有价值的东西。”不过,洛在X平台的长文中并未提到发动这场战争的总统的名字。
Rupert Lowe, leader of the far-right Restore Britain party, also blamed the decision to attack Iran for the Republicans’ defeat, calling it a "catastrophic mistake." He added, "What has this war achieved? Absolutely nothing of worth." Lowe did not though include in his lengthy X post the name of the president who launched the war.
