Trump Threatens to Cut Aid to UN Members Over Jerusalem Vote

川普威脅對在耶路撒冷問題反美國家減少援助

U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened to stop giving financial aid to countries that vote in favor of an emergency United Nations resolution this week.

美國總統(tǒng)川普威脅要停止向本周投票支持聯(lián)合國一項緊急決議的國家提供財政援助。

The draft resolution calls for the United States to withdraw its decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital.

該決議草案要求美國撤回承認(rèn)耶路撒冷為以色列首都的決定。

Trump told reporters at the White House Wednesday, "They take hundreds of millions and even billions of dollars, and then they vote against us. Well, we're watching those votes."

"Let them vote against us. We'll save a lot. We don't care," the president added.

川普周三在白宮對記者表示：“他們拿了(美國)數(shù)億乃至數(shù)十億美元(的援助)，然后他們投票反對我們。好吧，我們會盯著那些表決票。”川普還補充說，“讓他們投票反對我們吧，我們會省下很多錢。我們不在乎”。

The 193-member U.N. General Assembly will hold the rare emergency special session on Thursday. Arab and Muslim countries requested the special session. Egypt drafted the resolution.

擁有193個成員國的聯(lián)合國大會將于周四舉行罕見的緊急特別會議。阿拉伯和穆斯林國家請求舉行這次特別會議。埃及起草了決議。

The United States vetoed the draft resolution on Monday in the 15-member U.N. Security Council. The remaining 14 Security Council members voted in favor of it. The draft resolution does not directly mention Trump or the United States. But it expresses "deep regret at decisions concerning the status of Jerusalem."

美國周一在由15國組成的聯(lián)合國安理會上否決了該決議草案。其余14個安理會成員國都投了贊成票。該決議草案沒有直接提到川普或是美國，但是該草案對“有關(guān)耶路撒冷地位的決定深表遺憾。”

Nikki Haley, the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, said in a letter to several U.N. states that Trump had asked her to "report back on those countries who voted against us."

美國駐聯(lián)合國大使尼基·黑利(Nikki Haley)在一封寫給幾個聯(lián)合國成員國的信中表示，川普要求她“匯報那些投票反對我們的國家。”

She repeated that warning in a Twitter post, writing, "The U.S. will be taking names."

她在一則推文中重申了這一警告：“美國將會記下這些國家的名字。”

Bolivia's U.N. Ambassador, Sacha Sergio Llorentty Soliz, said of Haley's message: "The first name that she should write down is Bolivia." He added that the message was disrespectful and arrogant.

玻利維亞駐聯(lián)合國大使薩沙·塞爾吉奧·羅倫蒂蒂·索利茲(Sacha Sergio Llorentty Soliz)談到了黑利的警告，他說，“她第一個應(yīng)該寫下的名字就是玻利維亞。”他補充說，這個警告是對其它國家的不尊重和傲慢。

Several senior diplomats said Haley's warning was not likely to change many votes in the General Assembly, where such public, direct threats are rare.

一些高級外交官員表示，黑利的警告不太可能會改變聯(lián)合國大會上的很多選票。聯(lián)合國大會上的這種公開、直接的威脅非常罕見。

Miroslav Lajcak, the president of the General Assembly, did not comment on Trump's threat. But he did say, "It's the right and responsibility of member states to express their views."

聯(lián)合國大會主席米羅斯拉夫·拉杰克(Miroslav Lajcak)對川普的威脅沒有作出評論。但他表示：“大會成員國有發(fā)表意見的權(quán)利和責(zé)任。”

A spokesman for U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres also did not comment on Trump's remarks.

聯(lián)合國秘書長安東尼奧·古特雷斯(Antonio Guterres)的發(fā)言人也沒有對川普的言論作出評論。

Trump reversed US position on Jerusalem

川普扭轉(zhuǎn)美國對耶路撒冷立場

Trump suddenly reversed years of U.S. policy earlier this month when he recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. The decision led to anger and protests from Palestinians and across the Arab world, as well as concern among Western allies of the United States.

川普本月初突然扭轉(zhuǎn)了美國多年的政策，承認(rèn)耶路撒冷為以色列首都。這一決定引起了巴勒斯坦人和整個阿拉伯世界的憤怒和抗議，也引發(fā)了美國西方盟友的擔(dān)憂。

Trump has said he plans to move the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem from Tel Aviv. The draft U.N. resolution calls on all countries to not establish diplomatic missions in Jerusalem.

川普曾表示，他計劃將美國大使館從特拉維夫遷往耶路撒冷。聯(lián)合國決議草案呼吁所有國家不要在耶路撒冷建立使館。

Israel considers Jerusalem its indivisible capital and wants all embassies based there. Palestinians want the capital of an independent Palestinian state to be in the city's eastern area, which Israel captured in the Six-Day War in 1967. The move was never recognized internationally.

以色列認(rèn)為耶路撒冷是該國不可分割的首都，并希望把所有使館設(shè)在該地。巴勒斯坦人希望未來獨立的巴勒斯坦國把首都設(shè)在耶路撒冷的東部地區(qū)。以色列在1967年的六日戰(zhàn)爭中占領(lǐng)了東耶路撒冷，但是這一舉動從未得到國際上的承認(rèn)。
