🇺🇸 English

NATO's supreme military commander declared that, should an attack occur, the alliance is "prepared to fight tonight."

北約最高軍事指揮官宣稱,一旦遭受攻擊,北約「準備今晚就開戰」。

Concurrently, European officials have warned that Russia may resort to further covert attacks or a limited military incursion in order to probe NATO's defences.

與此同時,歐洲官員示警,俄羅斯恐藉由更多暗中攻擊或有限度的軍事入侵,藉以試探北約的防禦。

In recent months, European nations have been repeatedly unsettled by an escalation of Russia's covert operations, whose methods have included an arson attack on an Estonian defence firm and an abortive attempt to assault a Ukrainian aircraft at a German airport.

近月以來,歐洲諸國迭遭俄羅斯隱蔽行動升級之擾,其行徑包括對愛沙尼亞一家國防企業縱火,以及企圖於德國一座機場襲擊一架烏克蘭飛機而未遂。

Speaking in Warsaw on Monday, US Army General Greenkiewicz, the Supreme Allied Commander Europe, made it clear that should Russia resolve to launch an attack on NATO, the Alliance would respond with sensors, autonomous systems, and military force, thereby deterring any offensive.

北約盟軍最高司令、美國陸軍上將格林凱維奇週一於華沙闡明,倘若俄羅斯決意對北約發動攻擊,北約將以感測器、自主系統及軍事力量予以回應,從而遏止任何攻勢。

Addressing the Warsaw Security Forum, Greenkiewicz expounded the essence of what he termed NATO's "theory of victory."

格林凱維奇於華沙安全論壇致辭,闡發其所謂北約「勝利理論」之要義。

The NATO commander stated that he did not regard conflict as imminent or inevitable, and that the most effective means of preserving peace was none other than preparing in advance for war while keeping channels of communication open, so as to "dispel misunderstandings."

這位北約指揮官表示,他並不認為衝突迫在眉睫或勢所難免,而維護和平最為有效之途,莫過於為戰爭預作綢繆,同時保持溝通管道暢通,以「化解誤解」。

Greenkiewicz did not furnish specific details as to what kind of attack NATO is preparing to counter, where that attack would occur, or what forces would be committed.

格林凱維奇並未提供具體細節,說明北約正著手準備應對何種攻擊、該攻擊將於何處發生,或將投入何種部隊。

However, in outlining NATO's possible response to a Russian attack, he stated that the alliance's combined land, sea, and air forces would be brought into action to prevent Moscow from seizing territory and to deny Russia the ability to entrench itself in position.

然而,他在概述北約對俄羅斯攻擊可能採取的回應時表示,北約的陸海空聯合部隊將付諸行動,以阻止莫斯科奪取領土,並使俄羅斯無法固守陣地。

"My theory of victory is, so to speak, concise and to the point," he remarked at the Warsaw conference.

「我的勝利理論可謂簡明扼要,」他在華沙會議上如是說道。

"We shall check their initial offensive.

「我們將遏止其初始攻勢。

Should the offensive persist, we shall attrit it and forestall any enemy advance.

倘若攻勢持續,我們將予以削弱,遏阻任何敵軍推進。

If necessary, we shall utterly crush the enemy forces and the operational system they employ against our dispositions."

必要時,我們將徹底擊潰敵軍及其用以對我方部署之作戰體系。」

He made it clear that this encompasses not only the attacking forces but also every element that supports, sustains, and controls them.

他闡明,此不僅涵蓋攻擊部隊,亦囊括一切支持、維持及控制該部隊之要素。

In recent weeks, senior European officials and intelligence agencies have issued successive warnings: following a spate of sabotage incidents sweeping across the European continent, Russia may be plotting to test the limits of the NATO alliance through more covert attacks, or even invasion.

近數週以來,歐洲高階官員與情報機構相繼示警:在一連串破壞事件席捲歐洲大陸之後,俄羅斯恐正謀劃以更多隱蔽攻擊,甚或入侵之舉,試探北約聯盟之底線。

Denmark's Defence Intelligence Service has cautioned in particular that Russia may exploit such tactics to sow division within NATO.

丹麥國防情報局尤為告誡,俄羅斯或將藉此類戰術分化北約。

Yet, at the same time, President Trump also gave his approval to an agreement to purchase diesel from Russia, with the aim of suppressing American fuel prices before the midterm elections — a move that stirred up a considerable uproar in Europe.

然而,與此同時,川普總統亦首肯了一項自俄羅斯採購柴油之協議,意在期中選舉前壓抑美國油價,此舉在歐洲激起軒然大波。

Earlier this year, the American president had already made clear that he was withdrawing US troops from Europe, and his war against Iran has likewise plunged Europe into an acute shortage of advanced air-defence missiles.

今年稍早,這位美國總統即已表明正自歐洲撤離美軍,而其對伊朗所發動之戰爭,亦已致使歐洲先進防空飛彈陷入嚴重短缺。

Greenkiewicz stated that the deployment locations of the troops "ultimately hinge on political decisions", yet "no one should call into question the commitments the United States bears toward the alliance".

格林凱維奇表示,部隊之部署地點「最終取決於政治決斷」,惟「任何人皆不應質疑美國對聯盟所肩負之承諾」。

Greenkiewicz stated that the alliance's member states must coordinate a "unified" response strategy in order to address Russia's various actions, so that the Moscow authorities may know unequivocally "exactly where our red lines are drawn".

格林凱維奇表示,聯盟各成員國務須協調出一套「一致」的回應方略,以因應俄羅斯之種種行徑,令莫斯科當局明確知悉「我們的紅線究竟劃於何處」。

He further pointed out that, in the face of Russia's increasingly rampant malicious activities and acts of sabotage, our response ought to be to redouble our support for Ukraine.

他並指出,面對俄羅斯日益猖獗的惡意活動與破壞行為,吾人所作之回應,理應是加倍支持烏克蘭。

Poland's Prime Minister, Donald Tusk, issued a warning that Russia is plotting to escalate drone or rocket attacks against European allies that support Ukraine, while other countries, by contrast, are calling for calm.

波蘭總理圖斯克示警,指俄羅斯正謀劃升級對支持烏克蘭之歐洲盟友的無人機或火箭襲擊,惟其他國家則呼籲保持冷靜。

The Danish Defence Intelligence Service has stated that the risk of Russia launching a limited military attack on one or more of its neighbouring NATO member states is "very low, yet steadily increasing."

丹麥國防情報局指出,俄羅斯對一個或多個與其接壤之北約成員國發動有限度軍事攻擊之風險「甚低,然正與日俱增」。

Greenkevich stated that NATO has no intention of engaging in hostilities with any party, but that it will detect military attacks in advance, and therefore it is "unlikely to be caught off guard."

格林凱維奇表示,北約無意與任何一方交戰,惟將預先偵悉軍事攻擊,故「不太可能措手不及」。

Although Greenkevich proclaimed that NATO would, by dint of a network forged from sensors and autonomous systems, fend off any Russian offensive, several NATO member states had previously appeared woefully inadequate in exercises simulating drone warfare, and likewise confronted formidable challenges in detecting and responding to drones intruding upon their airspace.

儘管格林凱維奇宣稱北約將憑藉感測器與自主系統所構築之網絡抵禦俄羅斯的任何攻勢,若干北約成員國此前在模擬無人機作戰的演習中卻顯得力有未逮,於偵測並回應侵入其領空之無人機方面亦面臨嚴峻挑戰。

Several attack drones have already crashed within the territory of NATO member states bordering Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus.

多架攻擊型無人機已於與俄羅斯、烏克蘭及白俄羅斯接壤之北約成員國境內墜毀。

In May of this year, residents of Vilnius, the Lithuanian capital, were instructed by the authorities to take shelter after a drone deviated from its flight path and violated Lithuanian airspace.

今年五月,立陶宛首都維爾紐斯居民因一架無人機偏離航線、侵入立陶宛領空,而獲當局告知避難。

When asked whether NATO could deter Russia along the lines sketched out by Greenkevich, its spokesperson Colonel O'Donnell stated that NATO countries are increasingly deploying ground-based sensors and other technologies to detect and counter drones.

當被詢及北約能否循格林凱維奇所勾勒之途徑嚇阻俄羅斯時,其發言人歐唐納上校表示,北約諸國正日益部署地面感測器及其他技術,以偵測並反制無人機。

He asserted that a network interlinking drone-downing systems with sensors is gradually being constructed, although no drone has yet been shot down.

他聲稱,串聯擊落無人機系統與感測器之網絡正逐步建構中,儘管迄今尚未擊落任何無人機。

In September, Germany accused Russia of being the mastermind behind a plot at Leipzig Airport, a conspiracy that sought to attack a Ukrainian aircraft using drones laden with explosives.

9月,德國指控俄羅斯為萊比錫機場一起陰謀之幕後黑手,該陰謀企圖以裝載爆裂物之無人機襲擊一架烏克蘭飛機。

British officials likewise stated that they had thwarted a Russian plot targeting a drone facility on the outskirts of London, while Estonian officials asserted that Russia was the mastermind behind a fire at a defence company.

英國官員亦表示,彼等已挫敗俄羅斯鎖定倫敦郊外一處無人機設施之陰謀,而愛沙尼亞官員則稱俄羅斯為一起國防公司火災之幕後黑手。

Since Moscow launched its invasion of Ukraine, Western officials have attributed at least 211 incidents to Russia, and journalists have continued to track the relevant records.

自莫斯科對烏克蘭發動入侵以來,西方官員已將至少211起事件歸咎於俄羅斯,相關紀錄並由記者持續追蹤。

In an assessment published earlier in September, the Danish Defence Intelligence Service intimated that Russia might seek to procure Ukrainian drones and use them to attack Europe, thereby concealing any Russian involvement.

丹麥國防情報局於9月早些時候發布的評估中暗示,俄羅斯或將試圖取得烏克蘭無人機,並以其攻擊歐洲,藉此掩蓋任何俄方之參與。

Tusk hinted that Russia would very likely feign that any attack was an "accident", in order to "paralyse, or at least weaken, NATO countries'" willingness to come to the aid of an attacked member state.

圖斯克暗示,俄羅斯極有可能佯裝任何攻擊均屬「意外」,以「癱瘓或至少削弱北約國家」馳援遭攻擊成員國之意願。

The Danish intelligence agency pointed out that the aim of any such attack is to divert European resources away from support for Ukraine and to sow division within NATO.

丹麥情報機構指出,舉凡此類攻擊,其鵠的皆在於促使歐洲資源自對烏克蘭之支持中轉移,並於北約內部製造分裂。

However, both the Danish intelligence agency and O'Donnell stated that, at a time when Russia is already fighting in Ukraine, mounting a full-scale attack on NATO would be exceedingly difficult.

然丹麥情報機構與歐唐納均表示,值此俄羅斯正於烏克蘭作戰之際,欲對北約發動全面攻擊,實屬困難。
