英國駐美國大使的外交電報泄露后,英美關(guān)系惡化。泄露的備忘錄于周日發(fā)表在一家英國報紙上。大使金·達羅克對特朗普總統(tǒng)的白宮發(fā)表了高度負面和批評的評論。達羅克在談到白宮時寫道:“我們真的不相信本屆政府會變得更加正常;更少的功能失調(diào);更少的不可預(yù)測的;更少的派系分裂;在外交上少些笨拙和無能。”他將特朗普對伊朗的政策形容為“不連貫”和“混亂”。溫斯頓·丘吉爾爵士的孫子稱這次泄密是“不可原諒的背叛行為”。
The United States and the UK are traditionally strong partners on the international stage. They each describe their friendship as a "special relationship". The UK needs to nurture this friendship following its leaving the European Union after Brexit. It needs a trade deal with America. The United Kingdom's Prime Minister Theresa May said she had "full faith" in Sir Kim as ambassador but did not agree with his comments. Her spokesman described the leak as being "absolutely unacceptable". Donald Trump retaliated to the comments, saying Sir Kim "has not served the UK well." On Twitter, he wrote: "I do not know the Ambassador, but he is not liked or well thought of within the US. We will no longer deal with him."
美國和英國在國際舞臺上歷來是強有力的伙伴。他們每個人都把他們的友誼描述為一種“特殊的關(guān)系”。英國脫歐后退出歐盟,需要培育這種友誼。它需要與美國達成一項貿(mào)易協(xié)議。英國首相特蕾莎·梅(Theresa May)表示,她“完全信任”金爵士擔(dān)任大使,但不同意他的言論。她的發(fā)言人表示,泄密是“絕對不可接受的”。唐納德•特朗普(Donald Trump)對這些言論進行了回擊,稱金正恩“沒有很好地為英國服務(wù)”。他在推特上寫道:“我不認(rèn)識這位大使,但他在美國不受歡迎,也不受好評。我們再也不對付他了。”
