爱尔兰最高外交官员表示，欧盟在乌克兰对俄战争中的援乌资金应由所有成员国共同承担。此时各国领导人正齐聚讨论融资问题。
Ireland’s top envoy said European Union funding for Ukraine in its war against Russia should be shouldered by every member state as leaders gather to discuss financing.
外交部长海伦·麦肯蒂表示，她支持德国总理弗里德里希·默茨，后者已加大力度要求所有欧盟成员国都必须为乌克兰提供资金。
Foreign Minister Helen McEntee said she supported Chancellor Friedrich Merz, who has stepped up his demand that all bloc members must provide Ukrainian funding.
“我们希望看到所有成员国都做出贡献——这是我们的优先事项，”麦肯蒂周四在都柏林对彭博电视台表示，当时欧洲领导人正聚集都柏林参加峰会。
“We would like to see all member states contribute — and that is our priority,” McEntee told Bloomberg Television on Thursday as European leaders gathered for a summit in Dublin.
欧盟领导人将讨论明年的对乌资金以及更长远安排，这个饱受战争摧残的国家正准备迎接又一个在俄罗斯攻击下的冬天。成员国在批准了一笔900亿欧元（998亿美元）的贷款、用于覆盖基辅今年和明年的融资需求后，再次探讨联合借贷的方案。
EU leaders will address Ukrainian funding for next year and beyond as the war-battered country braces for another winter under Russian attack. Member states are again exploring an option for joint borrowing after approving a €90 billion ($99.8 billion) loan to cover Kyiv’s financing needs for this year and next.
“这笔钱正在提供给乌克兰，但我们知道缺口要大得多——尤其是明年，需要在那个基础上大幅增加，”麦肯蒂说。爱尔兰目前担任欧盟为期六个月的轮值主席国。
“That money is being provided to Ukraine, but we know the gap is much wider — and next year in particular there is going to need to be a substantial increase on that,” McEntee said. Ireland holds the EU’s rotating six-month presidency.
默茨本周加大了对资金的施压，将其作为批准欧盟多年期预算的条件，这一挂钩引发了东欧成员国的抵制，这些国家去年选择不参与该贷款方案。
Merz ratcheted up his demand on funding this week, making it a condition for approving the EU’s multi-year budget, a linkage that triggered resistance from eastern European members that opted out of the loan package last year.
匈牙利总理彼得·马扎尔本周在柏林会晤德国领导人后，对默茨的立场提出反对。斯洛伐克总理罗伯特·菲佐称德国的立场是“赤裸裸的敲诈”。
Hungarian Prime Minister Peter Magyar pushed back on Merz after meeting the German leader in Berlin this week. Slovakia’s prime minister, Robert Fico, called the German position “blatant blackmail.”
捷克总理安德烈·巴比什表示，德国的立场“不合适”，他在抵达都柏林时对记者说，“我们不从属于默茨先生。”由于比利时继续阻挠动用被冻结的俄罗斯央行资产的努力，另一笔贷款是最有可能的选项。乌克兰表示，其预算缺口明年可能达到700亿欧元。
Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babis said the German stance was “inappropriate,” telling reporters as he arrived in Dublin that “we are not subordinate to Mr. Merz.”Another loan is the likeliest option as Belgium continues to block efforts to deploy frozen Russian central bank assets. Ukraine has said its budgetary gap could hit €70 billion next year.
德国领导人抵达都柏林出席欧洲政治共同体会议时强化了自己的立场，称“显而易见，这是一项共同的欧洲任务。”爱尔兰外交部长表示，该问题关乎欧洲安全。
The German leader reinforced his position as he arrived in Dublin for the European Political Community meeting, saying it’s “obvious that this is a joint European task.”Ireland’s foreign minister said the issue is a matter of European security.
“我们需要探讨各方以何种形式为保护乌克兰作出贡献，”马丁说。“这不仅关乎保护乌克兰，更关乎保护欧盟——关乎更广泛层面的安全。”
“We need to look at ways in which everyone is contributing in some shape and form to protect Ukraine,” said McEntee. “It is not just about protecting Ukraine, this is about protecting the EU — this is about protecting security more broadly.”
