美国一名特使表示，俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京周四同意让欧洲代表参加下一轮乌克兰和平谈判，但这位俄罗斯领导人表示，华盛顿必须与其欧洲盟友合作，以了解他们希望在乌克兰实现和平还是战争。
President Vladimir Putin agreed on Thursday to let European representatives join the next round of Ukraine peace talks, a U.S. envoy said, though the Russian leader said Washington must work with its European allies to understand if they want peace or war in Ukraine.
美国特使史蒂夫·威特科夫在会谈后宣布，让欧洲在下一轮谈判中获得谈判桌席位，此举可能标志着突破。但普京的表态凸显了谈判可能变得多么艰难，因为莫斯科与欧洲各国首都在战争应如何结束的问题上存在尖锐分歧。
The move to give Europe a seat at the negotiating table at the next round of talks, which U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff announced after the talks, could mark a breakthrough. But Putin’s comments underlined how difficult the negotiations could become, given sharp differences between Moscow and European capitals over the way the war should end.
威特科夫在克里姆林宫与普京会面后对俄罗斯国家电视台表示：“欧洲人将参加下一次会议，我们认为这是一个非常重要的时刻，因为他们是我们的伙伴，他们的参与对我们很重要。”
“The Europeans will join at the next meeting, which we consider to be a very important moment because they are our partners and it’s important to us that they take part,” Witkoff told Russian state TV after meeting Putin in the Kremlin.
但乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基表示，新的限制正在影响基辅在战场上使用的美国制造的卫星通信，他还说自己认为美国与俄罗斯讨论新的欧洲安全秩序的做法“有点奇怪”，这显示出紧张局势再度升温。威特科夫和美国特使贾里德·库什纳预计晚些时候将在都柏林与泽连斯基会面。泽连斯基在本周早些时候于阿布扎比举行为期两天的三方会谈后发出警报。
But in a sign of renewed tensions, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy — whom Witkoff and U.S. envoy Jared Kushner were expected to meet later in Dublin — said new restrictions were affecting the U.S.-made satellite communications Kyiv uses on the battlefield, and that he found the U.S. approach of discussing a new European security order with Russia “a bit strange.”Zelenskiy voiced alarm after two days of trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi earlier this week — the first direct U.S.-mediated negotiations between Russia and Ukraine in nine months — at which Kyiv and Moscow said there had been some progress but that major differences remained, including on territorial issues.
那是九个月来美国首次直接斡旋俄罗斯与乌克兰之间的谈判，基辅和莫斯科称会谈取得了一些进展，但重大分歧依然存在，包括在领土问题上。俄罗斯控制着乌克兰约五分之一的领土，基辅拒绝放弃其东部顿巴斯地区的其余部分。
Russia holds about one fifth of Ukraine and Kyiv refuses to give up the rest of the Donbas region in its east.
泽连斯基表示，“星盾”卫星通信服务的中断情况严重，影响了整个前线以及俄罗斯控制的乌克兰部分地区。“星盾”是SpaceX“星链”卫星通信服务的军用版本，乌克兰上个月也遭遇过类似的中断。
Zelenskyy said disruptions to the Starshield satellite communications service were significant, however, affecting the entire front line and Russian-controlled parts of Ukraine. Starshield is the military version of SpaceX’s Starlink satellite communications service, and Ukraine suffered similar disruptions last month.
他说：“到目前为止，（关于星盾限制）我们知之甚少。但有些事情已经很清楚：如果美国有人在做决定时，基本上把乌克兰领土当作不是乌克兰的领土，那就告诉我们事情正走向何方。”
“So far we know very little (on the Starshield restrictions). But some things are already clear: if someone in America is making decisions that basically treat Ukrainian territory as if it is not Ukrainian, then it tells us where things are going,” he said.
他在Telegram上发帖称，系统性限制正在制约星盾的使用速度。他说，因此乌克兰的拦截弹无法达到足够速度，击落俄罗斯的喷气动力无人机。SpaceX拒绝置评。
In a post on Telegram, he said that systemic restrictions were limiting the speed at which Starshield could be used. As a result, Ukrainian interceptors could not reach sufficient speed to down Russian jet-powered drones, he said. SpaceX declined to comment.
在克里姆林宫的会谈中，库什纳告诉普京，华盛顿已察觉到他所称的欧洲方面的“巨大变化”，并有信心将欧洲人纳入和平谈判不会阻碍进展。
During the Kremlin talks, Kushner told Putin that Washington had detected what he called “a big change” in the European side and was confident that expanding peace talks to include the Europeans would not hinder progress.
普京表示，莫斯科一直对与欧盟讨论乌克兰问题持开放态度，但暗示存在严重的未解决分歧。
Putin said Moscow had always been open to talking to the EU about Ukraine, but signaled serious outstanding differences.
他说：“就欧洲人而言，我们从未反对与欧洲接触对话，我们也从未中断过这一对话。是他们中断了与俄罗斯联邦的对话。”
“As far as the Europeans are concerned, we have never been opposed to engaging in dialogue with Europe, and we have never broken off that dialogue. It was they who broke off the dialogue with the Russian Federation,” he said.
随后他警告说，欧洲方面提出在和平协议达成后向乌克兰派遣西方军队的想法，将引发战争重启，因为俄罗斯会将其视为对自身安全的威胁。
He then warned that the European idea of sending Western troops into Ukraine once a peace deal was concluded would trigger a resumption of the war because Russia would see that as a threat to its own security.
普京说：“我们非常希望你们各位先生，以及整个美国政府，与你们的欧洲盟友合作，让他们最终下定决心：在乌克兰要和平还是战争。”
“We would very much like you, gentlemen, and the U.S. administration as a whole, to work with your European allies so that they can finally make up their minds as to what they want: peace or war in Ukraine,” said Putin.
会谈后的简报会上，克里姆林宫助理尤里·乌沙科夫没有确认欧洲人将参加下一轮和平谈判，并称他们目前对乌克兰的立场无异于“无休止战争的配方”。普京告诉美国特使，俄罗斯提议俄乌联合向乌克兰东部的康斯坦丁尼夫卡派遣一支人道主义任务，他称莫斯科控制着该地。乌克兰过去曾对这一说法提出异议，称其仍在该地保持存在。
In a briefing after the talks, Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov did not confirm that the Europeans would join the next round of peace talks and said their current stance on Ukraine amounted to “a recipe for endless war.”Putin told the US envoys that Russia was proposing a joint Russian-Ukrainian humanitarian mission to Kostiantynivka in eastern Ukraine, which he said Moscow controlled, an assertion Ukraine has taken issue with in the past, saying it retains a presence there.
普京表示，该任务可参照上月底允许居民撤离俄罗斯控制的乌克兰东南部城镇奥列什基、并为选择留下的居民提供援助的倡议。
Putin said the mission could be modeled on an initiative that allowed residents to leave the Russian-controlled town of Oleshky in southeastern Ukraine at the end of last month and for aid to be brought in for those who chose to remain.
普京说，俄罗斯需要五天时间清除康斯坦丁诺夫卡附近地区的地雷，并称该市仍有400至500名居民。他补充说，该任务将让世界了解谁控制着这座城市。
Russia needed five days to clear the area near Kostiantynivka of mines, Putin said, saying there were 400 to 500 residents of the city who were still there. The mission would allow the world to understand who controlled the city, he added.
克里姆林宫助手乌沙科夫表示，美国特使欢迎普京的想法，并将就此与俄罗斯保持联系。
Ushakov, the Kremlin aide, said the U.S. envoys had welcomed Putin’s idea and would be in touch with Russia about it.
基辅此前曾表示担心，莫斯科可能希望利用此类任务的停火契机，让其军队重整旗鼓。
Kyiv has previously expressed concerns that Moscow might wish to use ceasefires for such missions to enable its military to regroup.
今年莫斯科未取得重大领土进展，但对乌克兰基础设施发动了猛烈袭击，而基辅频繁用无人机袭击俄罗斯炼油厂，导致夏季出现燃料短缺，据当地官员称，该问题本周在一些地区再次出现。
Moscow has not made major territorial gains this year, but has heavily attacked Ukrainian infrastructure, and Kyiv has frequently struck Russian oil refineries with drones, causing fuel shortages over the summer, a problem which has resurfaced in some regions this week according to local officials.
普京没有表现出准备缩减其领土要求的迹象，这些要求包括在俄罗斯未正式宣称拥有主权的乌克兰部分地区设立缓冲区。他在周四表示，俄罗斯视为其国家边界的界线应是与乌克兰唯一有意义的分界点，此番言论似乎表明他决心追求全面控制他宣称于2022年吞并的四个乌克兰地区的目标。
Putin has shown no signs of being ready to moderate his territorial demands, which include a buffer zone in parts of Ukraine which Russia has not formally claimed as its own. He said on Thursday that what Russia considers as its state border should be the only meaningful demarcation point with Ukraine, in comments which appeared to signal his determination to pursue his aim of taking full control of all four Ukrainian regions he said he had annexed in 2022.
他的助手乌沙科夫似乎也重申了俄罗斯的要求，即北约放弃在东欧和乌克兰的任何军事活动。
Ushakov, his aide, also appeared to restate Russian demands that NATO give up any military activity in eastern Europe and Ukraine.
