阿布扎比,阿拉伯联合酋长国——美国斡旋的俄乌会谈官员周三表示,双方已同意进行大规模战俘交换。
ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates — Officials at U.S.-mediated talks between Russia and Ukraine said Wednesday that the sides have agreed a large exchange of prisoners of war.
“积极的一面是,我们同意进行最大规模的人道主义战俘释放,我们将在明天敲定具体人数,”美国总统特朗普的女婿贾里德·库什纳在阿布扎比为期两天的会谈结束后表示。
“One of the positives is we agreed that we’re going to have the biggest humanitarian release of prisoners, which we’re going to finalize the numbers tomorrow,” Jared Kushner, U.S. President Donald Trump’s son-in-law, said after the two days of talks in Abu Dhabi ended.
俄罗斯代表团团长弗拉基米尔·梅金斯基和率领基辅代表团在阿布扎比会谈的卢斯滕·乌梅罗夫确认了这项计划中的交换。
Vladimir Medinsky, the head of the Russian delegation, and Rustem Umerov, who led Kyiv’s delegation in Abu Dhabi, confirmed the planned exchange.
双方代表团时隔九个月首次会面,外界对任何重大突破都不抱希望。在持续近五年的战争中,俄乌之间不时进行战俘交换。
Hopes were low for any major breakthrough in the first meeting in nine months between the delegations. Russia and Ukraine have from time to time swapped prisoners during their nearly five-year war.
美国官员表示,他们决心重振此前未能取得重大成果的华盛顿和平努力。
U.S. officials say they are determined to revive Washington’s peace efforts that so far have failed to deliver significant results.
库什纳表示,他和美国特使史蒂夫·维特科夫将于周四前往莫斯科,与俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京会面,随后飞往都柏林,与乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基会面。
Kushner says he and U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff will travel to Moscow on Thursday to meet with President Vladimir Putin, then fly to Dublin to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
自去年2月在日内瓦举行上次会谈以来,谈判背景已发生变化。特朗普政府必须考虑到,民主党可能在11月美国中期选举后于明年1月接管美国国会,并可能要求对乌克兰提供更多支持。
The context of the negotiations has changed since the last meeting in February in Geneva. The Trump administration has to reckon with Democrats, who could demand more support for Ukraine, taking over the U.S. Congress in January following the U.S. midterm elections.
此外,俄罗斯的战时经济承受着巨大压力,乌克兰则因对其电网的毁灭性空袭而陷入困境。乌梅罗夫表示,基辅代表团预计周三将与欧洲官员会面。
Also, Russia’s wartime economy is under heavy strain, and Ukraine is reeling from devastating aerial attacks on its power grid. Umerov said Kyiv’s delegation is expected to meet Wednesday with European officials.
莫斯科不希望那些担心俄罗斯在欧洲大陆的行为和更广泛意图的欧洲国家参与直接谈判。然而,官员表示,欧洲各国政府、欧盟和北约的代表在阿布扎比,并与乌克兰代表团进行磋商。
Moscow doesn’t want European countries, which are concerned about Russia’s conduct and broader intentions on the continent, involved in the direct negotiations. However, representatives of European governments, the European Union and NATO were in Abu Dhabi and were consulting with the Ukrainian delegation, officials said.
乌克兰总统泽连斯基周二表示,当天的会谈是“具有建设性且相当实质性的”。会谈主要围绕人道问题展开,包括可能的俘虏交换、将在乌克兰被俘的平民归还,以及被从该国带走的儿童,他指出。
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Tuesday’s session was “constructive and quite substantive.”The talks were largely about humanitarian issues, including possible prisoner exchanges and returning Ukrainian civilians in captivity, as well as children taken from the country, he said.
安全保障也在会谈中被提及。然而,俄罗斯和乌克兰在满足各自诉求方面均未表现出妥协的意愿。
Security guarantees also were discussed, he said. However, Russia and Ukraine have shown no sign of a willingness to compromise on their demands.
美国国务卿马可·鲁比奥称会晤“非常有成效”,但也提醒,结束战争的突破将需要时间。
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio called the meeting “very productive,” while cautioning that a breakthrough on stopping the war will take time.
阿布扎比会谈正在持续的前线交战背景下进行,这场交战此年期间几乎没有领土发生变动。与此同时,双方都在使用远程导弹和无人机互相猛烈攻击。
The Abu Dhabi talks are being held against the backdrop of continued fighting on the front line, where little territory has changed hands this year. Meanwhile, both countries are battering each other with long-range missiles and drones.
据报道,俄军在当晚袭击了南部扎波罗热地区以及东部哈尔科夫市,造成七名平民受伤并损毁财产。
Overnight, Russia struck the southern Zaporizhzhia region and the eastern city of Kharkiv, wounding seven civilians and damaging property.
俄罗斯国防部表示,当晚俄方防空系统击落了627架乌克兰无人机,其中150架在圣彼得堡附近地区被击落,据该地区州长亚历山大·德罗兹登科称。
Russia’s Defense Ministry said that air defenses downed 627 Ukrainian drones overnight, 150 of them over the region around St. Petersburg, according to the regional Gov. Alexander Drozdenko.
他补充说,这些无人机引发了位于乌普斯-卢加港口的火灾,该港口是俄罗斯油气出口的主要设施,并导致三名工人受伤。
He said that the drones started a fire at the port of Ust-Luga, one of the main facilities for Russian oil exports, injuring three workers.
