🇺🇸 English

On Tuesday, British Prime Minister Andy Burnham stepped onto the world stage to face a dual test: he was to meet with US President Donald Trump and also deliver a speech at the United Nations General Assembly.

英国首相安迪·伯纳姆于周二登上世界舞台,迎来一场双重考验:他既将会晤美国总统唐纳德·特朗普,又将在联合国大会上发表讲话。

For this newly minted leader, the experience amounted to nothing less than a baptism by fire.

对于这位新晋领导人而言此番经历无异于一场战火的洗礼

Within the space of a few short weeks, he had vaulted from being the mayor of Manchester, a city in north-west England, to leading a Group of Seven nation.

短短数周之内他便英格兰西北部城市曼彻斯特的市长,一跃而成为七国集团国家的领导人

He is poised to press Trump to bolster America's support for Ukraine, while hoping to avert criticism from Washington over Britain's decision to ban trade with Israeli settlements in the West Bank.

他势将敦促特朗普强化美国对乌克兰的支持,同时期望规避美方就英国决定禁止与以色列在约旦河西岸定居点通商一事提出批评。

He will also endeavour to convey a message: that Britain can play a pivotal role in tackling the world's most formidable challengesfrom the conflict in the Middle East to the dizzyingly rapid evolution of artificial intelligence.

他亦将力图传递一则讯息英国能够应对全球最严峻挑战——从中东冲突到人工智能令人目眩神迷的演进——中扮演关键角色

He will furthermore seek to turn the page on a decade of acrimony precipitated by Brexit, mending fences with Britain's European neighbours.

他并将力图翻过英国脱欧所引发的十年龃龉篇章与欧洲邻国修好关系

As he flew to New York to attend the annual summit of world leaders, Burnham announced that he had authorised the provision of limited military support to Saudi Arabia to defend against attacks launched by the Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen.

在飞赴纽约出席年度世界领导人峰会之际,伯纳姆宣告他已授权向沙特阿拉伯提供有限度的军事支援以抵御伊朗所扶植的也门胡塞叛军发动的袭击

He claimed that an RAF aircraft would provide aerial refuelling for Saudi warplanes engaged in "defensive" operations to intercept Houthi missiles.

他声称一架皇家空军飞机将为参与“防御”行动拦截胡塞导弹沙特战机实施空中加油

Burnham declared that he would confer with Trump on ways to bring an end to the intermittent war between the United States and Irana conflict that has impeded oil tankers passing through the Strait of Hormuz and triggered a sharp surge in global fuel prices.

伯纳姆宣称他将与特朗普磋商终结美伊之间那场时断时续的战争之途径——此役已致使途经霍尔木兹海峡的油轮受阻并引发全球燃料价格急剧攀升

The Houthi attacks on Saudi energy infrastructure have rendered the situation increasingly grave, and have likewise made Burnham's pledge to alleviate the cost-of-living pressures on British voters ever more difficult to fulfil.

胡塞武装对沙特能源基础设施的袭击令事态愈发严峻亦使伯纳姆纾解英国选民生活成本压力的承诺愈发难以兑现

"We are eager to bring this conflict to an end at the earliest opportunity, and we stand ready to contribute our own strength," Burnham said.

“我们亟盼尽早终结这场冲突,且随时准备贡献自身的力量,”伯纳姆如是说。

He will also urge the American president to supply Ukraine with air-defence missiles before Russia launches another winter offensive.

他亦将敦促美国总统,赶在俄罗斯再度发动冬季攻势之前,向乌克兰提供防空导弹。

Burnham told reporters that he would endeavour to seek "common ground" with Trump.

伯纳姆向记者表示他将致力于与特朗普探寻共同点”。

Trump had once described this centre-left British leader as "a good man" but, "unfortunately", a liberal.

特朗普曾将这位中左翼英国领导人称作是个好人”,不幸的是是个自由派

The Prime Minister stated that, since Burnham assumed office in July, he and Trump had "found common ground" in two phone calls.

这位首相表示,自伯纳姆于7月履新以来,他与特朗普在两次通话中“找到了联系”。

Burnham intends to strike a note of "hope" when he addresses the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday evening, even as he warns that the world is confronting "clouds of instability."

伯纳姆拟于周二晚在联合国大会发表讲话时奠定“希望”之基调,尽管他同时警示世界正面临“不稳定的乌云”。

Burnham declared that he would place his focus on artificial intelligence, holding that both the benefits and the risks of this technology could be approached with a "clear-eyed understanding."

伯纳姆宣称其将把重心置于人工智能之上,认为对这项技术的裨益与风险均可秉持清醒认识”。

He will argue that Britain is well positioned to serve as an "honest broker" in the pursuit of a global consensus to govern its development, given that London maintains sound relations with both the United States and Europe, and keeps up a "robust dialogue" with Beijing.

他将力主英国具备条件在谋求全球共识以规导其发展方面充当诚实中间人”,盖因伦敦与美欧均维系着良好关系且与北京保持着强有力的对话”。

He will also make clear that Britain is gradually emerging from the decade of turbulence that began with its decision in 2016 to leave the European Union.

他亦将表明英国正逐步走出自2016年决定脱离欧盟以来长达十年的动荡期

He will suggest that Brexit was the turning point at which the country was led astray by disinformation.

他暗示脱欧乃是该国因虚假信息而误入歧途的转折点

The Labour government under Burnham aims in its policy to seek a closer relationship with the European Union, while not reversing the decision to leave the bloc that now comprises 27 nations.

伯纳姆所领导的工党政府其政策旨在于寻求与欧盟建立更为紧密的关系同时不逆转脱离这一如今由27国组成的集团的决定。

Burnham has hinted that he may adopt a more assertive stance in the next general election, which is to be held no later than 2029.

伯纳姆暗示他或将在下一届全国大选中采取更为进取的立场而该选举最迟将于2029年举行

He told reporters that over the past decade, Britain had endured "the turbulence that arises when external actors seek to manipulate, distort facts, and influence the country's democratic processes."

他告诉记者在过去十年间英国历经了外部行为者试图操纵歪曲事实影响英国民主进程之际所涌现的动荡”。

"As we enter the next decade, we must remain clear-eyed about this and confront it with greater vigour and a more proactive stance," he said.

“步入下一个十年,我们必须对此保持清醒的认知,并以更为强劲、更为主动的姿态对其发起挑战,”他如是说。

"We may as well harbour hope for the course that lies ahead," Burnham added.

我们不妨对前进的航向怀抱希冀,”伯纳姆补充道

"We can draw a line under the decade that has passed and declare: 'The next decade will be utterly different.'"

我们能够为逝去的十年画上句点并宣告:‘下一个十年将迥然不同。’”
