俄美在联合国就叙利亚问题相互指责

Russia and the US have clashed at an emergency UN Security Council debate into the military strikes President Donald Trump launched against Syria in response to the chemical weapons attack that killed more than 70 people.

俄罗斯与美国在联合国安理会紧急会议上激烈辩论，就美国总统唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump ）启动对叙利亚进行军事打击相互指责。特朗普此举是对叙利亚化学武器杀害70多人做出的回应。

In his first major military action, Mr Trump authorised the launch of 59 Tomahawk missiles at a Syrian airfield after a gas attack that the US and its allies blamed on Syrian president Bashar al-Assad.

在特朗普首次启动军事行动的指令下，美军向叙利亚空军基地发射了59枚战斧导弹。此前，美国及其盟国指责叙利亚总统巴沙尔?阿萨德(Bashar al-Assad)须对毒气袭击负责。

Russian prime minister Dmitry Medvedev on Friday said the strikes had “completely ruined relations” between the US and Russia and that the two countries were now “on the verge of a military clash”.

俄罗斯总理德米特里·梅德韦杰夫（Dmitry Medvedev ）在周五表示，美国军事打击“完全破坏了（美国和俄罗斯）的关系”，而且两国现在“处于军事冲突的边缘”。

Speaking at the UN Security Council, Vladimir Safronov, Russia’s representative, said the strikes on Shayrat, an Assad regime-controlled air base, could spark “extremely serious” consequences for regional and international stability. “The aggression by the US has only facilitated the strengthening of terrorism,” he warned.

俄罗斯驻联合国代表弗拉基米尔?萨福诺夫（Vladimir Safronov）在安理会表示，打击阿萨德政权控制的谢拉特(Shayrat)空军基地，可能对该地区和国际稳定造成“极为严重”的后果。他警告：“美国的侵略只是促进增强了恐怖主义。”

“Assad did this because he thought he could get away with it. He thought he could get away with it because he knew Russia would have his back. That changed last night,” Nikki Haley, the US ambassador to the United Nations said on Friday.

美国驻联合国大使尼基?黑利（Nikki Haley）在周五表示，“阿萨德这样做，是因为他以为有俄罗斯支持就可以不受惩罚。从昨晚开始，不再是这样了。”

In a blistering speech against Moscow, Ms Haley said Russia bore “considerable responsibility” for the chemical weapons attack, suggesting that Moscow was either “knowingly” allowing chemical weapons to remain in Syria, “incompetent” or being made “a fool” of by the Assad regime.

黑利严厉指责莫斯科，她表示俄罗斯对化学武器袭击负有“相当大的责任”，并表示莫斯科或者“有意”允许叙利亚保留化学武器，“无能”，或者被阿萨德政权所“愚弄”。
