On Friday, the Trump administration announced that it had imposed sanctions on a Turkish financial institution as part of its latest measures to sever what it termed the Iranian government's 'vital financial lifeline.'

特朗普政府於週五宣布作為切斷伊朗政府關鍵金融命脈之最新舉措的一部分對一家土耳其金融機構實施制裁

These sanctions against Golden Global Yatirim Bankasi Anonim Sirketi were imposed following Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's launch of 'Operation Economic Exile' last week.

針對黃金環球投資銀行(Golden Global Yatirim Bankasi Anonim Sirketi)這些制裁行動是在財政部長斯科特·貝森特(Scott Bessent)上週發起「經濟放逐行動」實施的

This move represents Washington's latest effort, after more than six months of conflict, to isolate Iranalready under severe sanctionsalong with its remaining trading partners, and to compel it to capitulate to American demands.

此舉華盛頓在超過六個月的戰爭後,為隔離已受嚴厲制裁的伊朗及其剩餘貿易夥伴試圖迫使其屈服於美國要求而採取的最新行動

The Treasury accused the Turkish bank and its affiliated entities of being established to enable Iran to transfer oil revenues from China to Turkey, where they were converted into cash and gold.

財政部指責這家土耳其銀行及其相關實體是為了讓伊朗能將石油收入從中國轉移至土耳其並在當地轉換為現金和黃金而設立。

The Treasury further stated that the institution "knowingly" provided banking services to Iranian financial entities, including those sanctioned by the U.S. government in 2022 for channeling Tehran's oil sales.

財政部還表示該機構「知情地」向伊朗金融實體提供銀行服務包括那些在2022年因輸送德黑蘭石油銷售而被美國政府制裁的實體。

Earlier this week, Bessent indicated that another bank would face economic sanctions.

貝森特本週稍早曾表示另一家銀行將面臨經濟制裁

He stressed that financial institutions linked to Iran would 'continue to discover, in a difficult manner, that we are serious about the 'Economic Exile Operation.'

他強調與伊朗有關聯的金融機構繼續以艱難的方式發現我們‘經濟放逐行動’是認真的。’

"While we hope that no further banks will need to be sanctioned, this ultimately hinges on whether the international community can come to its senses promptly and cease its support for this brutal Iranian regime," he stated in a press release on Friday.

雖然我們希望不會再有銀行需要受到制裁這最終取決於國際社會能否儘快清醒過來停止支持這個殘暴的伊朗政權,」他在週五的一份新聞稿中表示

"We know who you are and where you are, and we will continue to take action alongside our allies and partners until the head of this venomous Iranian serpent is completely eradicated."

我們知道你們是誰也知道你們在哪裡我們將繼續與盟友和夥伴採取行動,直到徹底剷除伊朗這條毒蛇的頭顱。」

Yet the objective of compelling those nations still engaged in economic exchanges with Iran to sever financial ties, under threat of American retaliation, has not yet been achieved.

目前迫使那些與伊朗有經貿往來的國家切斷金融聯繫否則便會遭受美國報復的目標,尚未實現。

The promised 'economic D-Day' for certain countries, potentially including China and India, swiftly morphed into warnings and negotiations directed at Iran's trading partners.

可能包括中國和印度在內的一些國家所承諾的『經濟D日』迅速轉變為對伊朗貿易夥伴的警告與談判

Bessent previously told reporters that he hoped nations would have the opportunity to adjust their positions before the situation became irreparable, thereby averting a disruptive impact on the global financial system.

貝森特先前向記者表示,他希望各國能在局勢不可挽回之前有機會調整立場,以免對全球金融體系造成顛覆性衝擊。

The Trump administration's reluctance to penalize major trading partners that still conduct business with Iran became evident last week: the United States imposed restrictive measures on an Egyptian bank's operations in the United Arab Emirates, yet stopped short of imposing direct sanctions.

特朗普政府不願懲罰那些與伊朗有業務往來主要貿易夥伴,此點在上週已見端倪美國對一家埃及銀行在阿拉伯聯合大公國的營運採取了限制措施未直接施加制裁

The United States has also recently resumed military strikes, prompting Iran to retaliate across the region.

美國近期恢復了軍事打擊行動促使伊朗在該區域展開報復

It remains difficult to predict what consequences this dual-pronged strategy will have for President Donald Trump.

目前尚難斷言這種雙管齊下的策略總統唐納德·特朗普會產生何種後果

He has been striving to end an unpopular war, confronting an intransigent Iranian government, while rising energy prices are causing considerable trouble for the Republican Party ahead of the November midterm elections.

他一直戮力終結一場不得民心的戰爭面對頑固不化的伊朗政府同時能源價格持續攀升在十一月中期選舉前夕共和黨帶來諸多困擾

The latest US sanctions have targeted Golden Global Investment Bank.

最新美國制裁的矛頭指向黃金環球投資銀行

According to its official website, the bank was established in 2019 and is Turkey's first investment bank to offer foreign enterprises "banking services and alternative financing channels."

根據其官網該銀行成立於2019年,是土耳其首家為外國企業提供「銀行服務及替代性融資管道」的投資銀行

This Istanbul-headquartered bank remains largely unfamiliar to the Turkish public, with its core strategy hinging on channeling growth momentum into Turkey's foreign trade through targeted markets in neighboring countries.

這家以伊斯坦堡為總部的銀行對多數土耳其民眾而言可謂相當陌生其核心策略在於透過鄰近國家的目標市場為土耳其的對外貿易注入成長動能

A day before the finance ministry issued its statement, Turkey's state-owned Halkbank announced that it had reached a settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice over a case that had been litigated for nine years and involved violations of sanctions against Iran.

財政部發表聲明的前一日土耳其國營的Halkbank銀行對外宣布其已一樁纏訟九年牽涉違反伊朗制裁規定的案件與美國司法部達成和解協議

In this case, senior executives at Halkbank are alleged to have been involved in the illicit transfer of approximately $20 billion in Iranian oil proceeds.

在此案中據稱Halkbank的高層主管涉嫌非法轉移約200億美元伊朗石油收益

US prosecutors have alleged that high-ranking officials within the Turkish government accepted millions of dollars in bribes in order to shield the scheme from scrutiny.

美國檢方指控土耳其政府的高級官員收受了數百萬美元的賄賂以包庇該計畫的運作

The Halkbank case has caused a significant rift in bilateral relations between the United States and Turkey, prompting Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan to personally intervene and lobby the White House to abandon prosecution of the case.

Halkbank案致使美土雙邊關係出現顯著裂痕土耳其總統雷傑普·塔伊普·埃爾多安親自出面向白宮展開遊說,力促其放棄對該案的追訴
