President Donald Trump is expected to announce on Wednesday that South Korea intends to invest approximately $54 billion in a project to export natural gas from Alaska.

總統唐納·川普預計於週三宣布,南韓擬投資約540億美元於一項自阿拉斯加出口天然氣的項目。

The proposal has long enjoyed the backing of Republican Senator Dan Sullivan, who is currently engaged in a fiercely contested re-election campaign in that state.

該提案長期以來一直獲得共和黨參議員丹·蘇利文(Dan Sullivan)的支持,而蘇利文目前正在該州投入一場競爭激烈的連任選戰。

This investment would mark the second time this week that the Republican president has sought to highlight the foreign investment prospects generated by his administration's trade policy in a state where a Republican Senate candidate is locked in a tight race.

這項投資將標誌著本週第二次,這位共和黨總統試圖在共和黨參議院候選人選情膠著的州,凸顯其政府貿易政策所帶來的外國投資前景。

On Monday, he made a similar announcement in the Oval Office regarding a large steel plant in Iowa.

他週一曾在橢圓形辦公室就愛荷華州一座大型鋼鐵廠發布了類似宣布。

The investment in Alaska stems from a commitment made when a trade agreement was reached with South Korea in 2025, under which South Korea pledged to invest 350 billion US dollars in the United States in exchange for reduced US tariffs on South Korean cars, auto parts, and other products.

阿拉斯加的投資,源自2025年與南韓達成貿易協議時所作的承諾,其中包括南韓承諾在美國投資3500億美元,以換取美國降低對南韓汽車、汽車零部件及其他產品的關稅。

This announcement was initially disclosed by Bloomberg and was subsequently confirmed by the White House on Wednesday.

這項宣布最初由彭博社率先披露,隨後於週三獲得白宮方面的證實。

Sullivan has long been an advocate of Alaska's natural gas projects and has encouraged South Korean investment.

蘇利文長期以來一直是阿拉斯加天然氣項目的倡導者,並鼓勵南韓投資。

As a two-term senator, he is currently facing a competitive challenge from former congresswoman and Democrat Mary Peltola.

作為兩屆參議員,他目前面臨前國會女議員、民主黨人瑪麗·佩爾托拉(Mary Peltola)的競爭挑戰。

The White House stated that the project includes an 807-mile (1,300-kilometer) natural gas pipeline connecting Alaska's North Slope to a liquefied natural gas export terminal in southern Alaska, which will ultimately lower energy costs for the state's residents by providing a reliable and secure supply.

白宮表示,該項目包含一條全長807英里(1300公里)的天然氣管道,連接阿拉斯加北坡與阿拉斯加南部的一座液化天然氣出口終端,最終將透過提供可靠且安全的供應,降低該州居民的能源成本。

On Monday, Trump announced plans for a Minnesota-based company owned by an Indian industrial conglomerate to build a $15 billion steel plant in Iowa.

川普週一宣布,計劃由一家印度工業集團旗下的明尼蘇達公司,在愛荷華州興建一座價值150億美元的鋼鐵廠。

In Iowa, Republican U.S. Representative Ashley Hinson is engaged in a fierce race for the U.S. Senate against Democratic State Representative Josh Turek, competing for the seat being vacated by two-term Republican Joni Ernst, who is about to retire.

在愛荷華州,共和黨聯邦眾議員艾希莉·辛森(Ashley Hinson)正與民主黨州眾議員喬許·圖雷克(Josh Turek)展開激烈的美國參議院選戰,角逐即將退休的兩屆共和黨人喬尼·恩斯特(Joni Ernst)留下的席位。

Hinson delivered remarks in the Oval Office during the announcement.

辛森在宣布期間於橢圓形辦公室發表了講話。

Alaska and Iowa have long been states that Trump has won with ease in every presidential campaign, and they are also among the states where Democrats are aiming to capture Republican-held Senate seats in the 2026 midterm elections, with less than five weeks remaining until the vote.

阿拉斯加和愛荷華州向來是川普每次競選總統都能輕鬆取勝的州,同時也是民主黨在2026年期中選舉中力圖奪取共和黨-held參議院席位的目標州之一,而距離選舉已不足五週。

The Democratic Party must achieve a net gain of four seats in the 100-member Senate in order to surpass the Republican majority.

民主黨必須在由100席組成的參議院中淨增四席,才能超越共和黨的多數地位。

At the time Trump made these announcements, voters were expressing concern about fuel prices that, linked to the unresolved war with Iran, were approaching historic highs, while the Republican majority in Congress also faced voters' dissatisfaction with Trump's handling of the economy.

川普宣布這些消息之際,選民正對與伊朗未解決戰爭相關、逼近歷史高點的燃料價格表達擔憂,而國會多數共和黨人也面臨選民對川普經濟處理方式的不滿。

In a poll conducted by the NORC Center for Public Affairs Research in late July, only about one-third of Americans approved of how Trump was handling the economy, while roughly seven in ten respondents described the economic situation as poor.

在NORC公共事務研究中心7月底的一項民調中,僅約三分之一的美國人認可川普對經濟的處理方式,而約七成受訪者則形容經濟狀況糟糕。
