🇺🇸 English

Markwayne Mullin, having assumed the role of Secretary of Homeland Security as the successor to the dismissed former Secretary Kristi Noem, has pledged to insulate the departmentwhich executes the Trump administrations sweeping deportation policyfrom the glare of public scrutiny.

マークウェイン・マリン氏は解任されたクリスティ・ノーム前長官後任として国土安全保障長官に就任しトランプ政権による大規模な強制送還政策執行する同省を公の注目の的から遠ざけることを誓約した

Yet, merely months after Mr. Marins appointment, the department has been thrust back into the crucible of controversy following an incident in which three individuals lost their lives within less than a week due to encounters with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) personnel.

しかしマリン氏の就任からわずか数カ月後一週間にも満たない期間に移民税関捜査局(ICE)職員との接触が原因で三人の死者を出すという事態を受け同省再び論争の渦中に投じられている。

These incidents constitute the first major trial for Marine, who pledged to lead with imperturbable composure an agency that had been driven to the brink of chaos by the actions of his predecessor and the intensification of immigration enforcement under the Trump administration.

これらの事案は前任者の行動トランプ政権による移民取り締まりの強化によって混乱の極みに達した省庁を泰然自若とした手腕をもって統率すると公約したマリン氏にとって最初の重大な試練となる

In the process of addressing the surge in violence, he finds himself caught between the White House's pressure to advance mass deportations and former congressional colleagues demanding explanations, while also being compelled to strike an exceedingly precarious balance by attempting to de-escalate tensions surrounding fatal incidents that have occurred in cities across the United States.

暴力の増加対処する過程において、彼はホワイトハウスからの大量強制送還推進の圧力と、説明を求めるかつての同僚議員たちとの間で板挟みとなり、さらに米国各地の都市で発生した死亡事件をめぐる緊張緩和図らねばならないという、極めて困難な均衡強いられている

During Tuesday's plenary session, Democratic Representative Seth Magaziner remarked, 'Secretary Marin stated upon taking office that he would keep this department off the front page of the news.'

民主党セス・マガジナー下院議員火曜日の本会議において「マリン長官は就任時に、この省庁をニュースの一面から遠ざけると述べた」と発言した

Then, brandishing the newspaper he held, he declared emphatically, 'Well, we are back on the damned front page again.'

そして手にした新聞を掲げながら「さて、また『忌々しい一面』に戻ってきたな」と語気を込めて述べた

Mr. Marin, a former senator from Oklahoma, was selected as an unconventional figure to oversee this vast department following the dismissal of Mr. Noem in the wake of an incident earlier this year in Minneapolis, in which two American protesters were fatally shot by federal immigration officers.

オクラホマ州出身の元上院議員であるマリン氏は今年初頭にミネアポリスで発生した連邦移民職員による米国人抗議者2名の射殺事件を受けてノーム氏が解任された後この巨大省庁を統括する異例の人物として選出された

Ms. Noem, as the official tasked with actualizing the administration's vision of mass deportation, assumed a prominent role and championed an aggressive immigration enforcement approach.

ノーム氏は、政権が掲げる大量強制送還というビジョン具現化する責任者として、前面に立ち積極的な移民執行スタイル推進した

Among her most notable actions was a visit to a detention facility in El Salvador.

その中でも最も著名なのは、エルサルバドルにおける収容施設への訪問である

She promptly articulated her public stance on contentious matters, and regarding the two fatal shootings in Minneapolis, she issued a statement categorizing the slain protesters as instigators.

彼女物議を醸す事態に対して迅速に公の見解表明しミネアポリスで発生した二件の射殺事件関しては殺害された抗議者扇動者断じる声明を発表した

President Donald Trump, having come to champion mass deportation as a central pledge of his second-term administration, ultimately grew increasingly disgruntled with Ms. Noem, citing a $200 million advertising campaign and her handling of the Minneapolis operation as the grounds for his dissatisfaction.

ドナルド・トランプ大統領は、第2期政権中心的公約として大量強制送還を掲げるに至ったが、最終的には2億ドルに及ぶ広告キャンペーンミネアポリス作戦への対応理由にノーム氏に対する不満募らせた

While pledging to execute the president's priorities, Marin promised an approach that would distinguish itself from them.

マリン氏は大統領の優先事項を遂行することを誓約しつつもそれとは一線を画すアプローチを約束した

His first official trip as secretary was not to expedite immigration law enforcement but to inspect hurricane recovery operations in North Carolina.

長官としての初の公式出張は移民法執行の促進ではなくノースカロライナ州におけるハリケーン復興活動の視察であった

Noem frequently accompanied staff on immigration enforcement raids, whereas Marin has refrained from any such actions entirely.

ノーム氏は頻繁に職員と共に移民摘発に赴いていたがマリン氏はそのような行動を一切とっていない。

After he assumed the post of Secretary, the administration, prompted by the violent incidents in Minneapolis, pivoted from immigration policies that had garnered conspicuous unpopularity in urban areas of the United States toward a more subdued enforcement approach that eschewed media attention.

彼が長官に就任したミネアポリスにおける暴力事件を契機として政権は米国都市部で顕著な不評を博していた移民対策からメディアの注目を集めないより静謐な執行手法へと方針転換を図った。

Under Ms. Marin's leadership, ICE has also withdrawn from plans to utilize warehouses for immigrant detention.

マリン氏の指揮下においてICEは移民収容のための倉庫活用計画からも撤退している

Nevertheless, even under Mr. Marin's governance, arrests of immigrants have persisted unabated, with the vast majority of them scarcely attracting public attention.

しかしながらマリン氏の統治下にあっても移民の逮捕絶えることなく続いておりその多くが世間の耳目を集めることはほとんどない

Over a five-day period in late June, ICE arrested 10,000 individuals, amounting to an average of approximately 2,000 arrests per day.

6月下旬の5日間でICEは1万人を逮捕し1日平均約2000件の逮捕に及んだ

Furthermore, new restrictions have been imposed on legal immigration pathways as well.

さらに合法的な移民経路に対しても新たな制限が課せられている

During Marin's tenure, Trump lauded the secretary as "extremely outstanding" and "remarkable," expressing profound admiration for his decision to relinquish a Senate seat in order to lead the Department of Homeland Security.

トランプ氏はマリン氏の在任中同長官を「極めて卓越した」「驚嘆すべき」と称賛し上院議席を放棄してまで国土安全保障省を統率したことを高く評価してきた

Over the course of several months, the transformation in Marin's approach was observed to have become systematically entrenched within the organization.

数カ月にわたりマリン氏によるアプローチの変容が組織的に定着しているように観察された

Although advocacy groups and civil rights activists condemned the department for perpetrating abuses against immigrants under his leadership, Marin's non-confrontational approach had the effect of shielding the department from the brunt of public censure.

擁護団体公民権活動家は、彼の指導の下で省庁が移民に対して虐待行為を行っている非難したが、マリン氏の非対立的なアプローチは、省庁を公衆の批判の焦点から遠ざける効果を有していた

However, the events of last week have presented Mr. Marin with a fresh set of challenges.

しかし先週の出来事マリン氏新たな課題をもたらしている

He is compelled to walk a tightrope, maintaining an exceedingly delicate equilibrium between his own moderate approach and the demands of the president.

彼は自身の穏健なアプローチ大統領の要求の間で極めて微妙な均衡を保つ綱渡りを強いられている

"Addressing conflicting policy objectives is an exceedingly formidable challenge for any cabinet member, yet Mr. Marin finds himself in an even more precarious position compared to the vast majority of his counterparts," remarked Tom Warrick, a former counterterrorism official at the Department of Homeland Security who is currently affiliated with the Atlantic Council.

競合する政策目標対処することは、いかなる閣僚にとっても極めて困難な課題であるが、マリン氏その大半の閣僚と比較しても、より一層厳しい立場置かれている」と、国土安全保障省元テロ対策当局者で、現在はアトランティック・カウンシル所属するトム・ウォリック氏述べた

As far as the Department of Homeland Security is concerned, the White House demands that immigration quotas be met while simultaneously maintaining public trust, a feat that would be an exceedingly formidable challenge even if Ms. Mayorkas were endowed with abundant resources.

国土安全保障省に関して言えば、ホワイトハウス移民割当達成すると同時に国民の信頼維持することを要求しておりその実現方法は、マリン氏潤沢な資金を有していたとしても極めて困難な課題である。

ICE officers in Houston and Maine fatally shot an individual who was inside a vehicle during an immigration-related operation.

In Florida, a man who attempted to flee from ICE officers died as a result of a vehicular accident.

Mr. Marin has refrained from making any public statements whatsoever regarding this series of fatalities, while the ministry's press office has done no more than issue terse statements following each incident.

マリン氏はこれら一連の死亡事例に関して公の場で一切の発言を行っておらず、省庁の広報室は各事件後に簡潔な声明を発表するに留まっている

Beneath the surface, Marine, who frequently asserts that he shares his personal mobile number with legislators and urges them to call him directly, has been engaging in dialogue and information-sharing with lawmakers, having held repeated consultations with both of Maine's senators.

水面下では自身の携帯電話番号を議員と共有し直接電話するよう勧めていると頻繁に語るマリン氏は、議員と対話し情報を共有しておりメイン州の両議員とも協議を重ねた

In the wake of a second shooting incident in Maine, as criticism from protesters and former colleagues of Representative Marin intensified, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) was ordered to cease the majority of its vehicle stops.

メイン州における二件目の銃撃事件抗議者及びマリン氏元同僚議員からの批判激化する中移民関税執行局(ICE)大半の車両停止中止するよう命じられた

This decision incited vehement indignation among Trump's supporters.

この決定はトランプ支持者の間に激しい憤激を引き起こした

Conservative influencer Nick Sorter, in a post on X, denounced this as a 'complete capitulation to the left.'

保守派インフルエンサーのニック・ソーター氏はXへの投稿においてこれを「左翼への完全なる降伏」と断じた

Conservative activist Mike Davis accused Marine of having heeded the counsel of Senator Susan Collins of Maine.

保守活動家のマイク・デイビス氏はマリン氏がメイン州選出のスーザン・コリンズ上院議員の助言に従ったと非難した

Senator Collins stated that she had proposed a temporary suspension of vehicle stops to the Secretary.

コリンズ議員は長官に対して車両停止の一時中断を提案したと述べている

A day later, Trump appeared to contradict his directive to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), posting on social media: 'We must be tough, decisive, and shrewd; under no circumstances may we relinquish traffic enforcement, one of ICE's most vital and efficacious crime-fighting instruments!'

1日後トランプ氏は移民税関捜査局(ICE)への指示に相反するように見受けられソーシャルメディア上で我々は強靭かつ果断かつ賢明でなければならずICEの最も重要かつ効果的な犯罪対策手段の一つである『交通取り締まり』を放棄することは断じて許されない!」と投稿した

Subsequently, Ms. Marine reposted Mr. Trump's remarks, adding that those present within the country would be "arrested and deported, regardless of where they are."

マリン氏はその後トランプ氏の発言を再投稿し国内に所在する者たちはどこにいようと逮捕され強制送還される」と付言した

Furthermore, she declared on X that she held "the same view" as the president.

さらにX上で大統領と同じ見解である」と表明した

Whether the resumption of vehicle operations had indeed taken place was a matter that proved exceedingly difficult to ascertain immediately.

車両運行再開果たして行われたのか否か、その即座の確認困難を極めた

This, however, vividly illustrates the friction between Ms. Marin's endeavor to maintain composure and the president's demand for the mass arrest of undocumented immigrants, whom the administration frequently portrays as criminals.

しかしこれはマリン氏が平静を維持しようとする試みと、政権が多くの場合犯罪者として描写する不法移民大量に逮捕するよう求める大統領の要求との間の摩擦如実に示したものである

The Democratic Party has vehemently castigated the new secretary, caustically pointing out that virtually no substantive transformation is discernible within the ministry under his purview.

民主党は新長官を激しく糾弾し所管省庁において実質的な変革がほとんど認められないと痛烈に指摘している

Congressman Joaquin Castro, a Democrat from Texas, pointed out that Secretary Marin, provided he possesses the requisite will and enjoys the backing of the White House, is fully capable of taking control of ICE and compelling the agency to operate within the bounds of the law.

テキサス州選出の民主党議員ホアキン・カストロ氏は、マリン長官が、その意志を有しかつホワイトハウスの支持を得ているならばICEを掌握し同機関を法の枠組み内で行動させる能力を具えていると指摘した

He consequently concluded that either the Secretary lacks that will, the White House is withholding its support, or the personnel have strayed beyond all control.

同氏は従って長官にその意志が欠如しているホワイトハウスが支援を惜しんでいるか、あるいは職員が統制を逸脱しているかのいずれかであると結論付けた

Republican lawmakers have consistently and unwaveringly maintained their stance in defense of Ms. Marin, articulating their position with unequivocal clarity.

共和党議員らは、マリン氏を擁護する立場を終始一貫して堅持しその姿勢を揺るぎないものとして明確に打ち出している。

"The Secretary perceives that he has fulfilled his intrinsic desire to transform the atmosphere within that organization," declared Congressman Andrew Garbarino, who represents New York State.

長官はあの組織内の雰囲気を変革したいという自身の内的欲求を成就させたと認識している」と、ニューヨーク州選出のアンドリュー・ガルバリーノ下院議員は言明した

As Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, the Congressman is demanding from the DHS a detailed, bipartisan-based explanation regarding the policy on the use of force by ICE.

同議員は下院国土安全保障委員会委員長としてICEによる武力行使に関する方針についてDHSから超党派の立場に基づく詳細な説明を要求している

"No one would welcome ICE becoming the focus of media attention once again," Mr. Garbarino opined.

ICE再びメディアの焦点となることを歓迎する者などいないだろう」とガルバリーノ氏所見を述べた
