Senior US military and intelligence officials gathered in Colorado this week for the third annual USNORTHCOM Counterterrorism Summit to assess evolving terrorist threats and strengthen efforts to protect the American homeland.
北美航空航天防御司令部（NORAD）和美国北方司令部（USNORTHCOM）司令格雷戈里·吉洛特上将，以及美国特种作战司令部（USSOCOM）司令弗兰克·布拉德利海军上将，于周四在彼得森太空军基地共同主持了此次峰会。
Gen. Gregory Guillot, commander of North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and US Northern Command (USNORTHCOM), and Adm. Frank Bradley, commander of US Special Operations Command (USSOCOM), co-chaired the summit Thursday at Peterson Space Force Base.
会议汇集了国防部和美国政府各机构的高级领导人和专家，包括国家安全委员会、国家反恐中心、国土安全委员会以及联邦执法合作伙伴。
The meeting brought together senior leaders and experts from across the Department of Defense and US government agencies, including the National Security Council, National Counterterrorism Center, Homeland Security Council and federal law enforcement partners.
讨论重点在于评估长期存在和新出现的恐怖主义威胁，改善情报共享，并协调政府各项能力，在恐怖分子网络抵达美国边境前将其瓦解。
Discussions focused on assessing both longstanding and emerging terrorist threats, improving intelligence sharing and coordinating government capabilities to disrupt terrorist networks before they reach US borders.
吉洛特表示：“有效的美国非对称防御需要的不仅仅是军事能力”，他强调了整合情报、执法、法律授权、作战准备和国际伙伴关系的重要性。
“Effective asymmetric defense of the United States requires more than military capability,” Gen. Guillot said, stressing the importance of integrating intelligence, law enforcement, legal authorities, operational readiness and international partnerships.
与会者还探讨了加强军方与民间机构合作、统一战略优先事项，以及解决美国分层本土防御体系中存在的漏洞等途径。
Participants also examined ways to strengthen cooperation between military and civilian agencies, align strategic priorities and address gaps in the country’s layered homeland defense system.
布拉德利则警告称，恐怖主义仍然对美国本土和海外的美国人及美国利益构成威胁。
Bradley, for his part, warned that terrorism remains a threat to Americans and US interests both at home and abroad.
