  • But if Europeans were concerned about Russia's violation of the accord,
  • 但如果欧洲人关心俄罗斯违反协议的行为,
  • they feared that the Trump Administration's response would distract from it,
  • 他们就会担心特朗普政府对此会做出其他反应,
  • said Kingston Reif, director for disarmament and threat reduction policy at the Arms Control Association.
  • 军备控制协会裁军与减少威胁政策主任金斯顿·赖夫如是说。
  • The last thing Europeans want is Moscow and Washington launching a new arms race in Europe.
  • 欧洲人最不希望的就是俄罗斯和美国在欧洲展开新一轮军备竞赛。
  • "There is no indication that NATO supports a new (missile),
  • “北约没有流露出任何支持新研发的(导弹)的姿态,

  • 试图强行让欧盟接受这一武器极有可能造成不和,“赖夫说。
  • "It is thus a weapon to nowhere."
  • “所以这个武器是没有任何出路的”
  • Three days after Trump signed the defense bill,
  • 特朗普签署国防开支法案三天后,
  • NATO issued a statement touting the INF treaty as "crucial to Euro-Atlantic security"
  • 北约就发表声明,宣称《中程核力量条约》“对欧洲 - 大西洋安全至关重要”,
  • and reiterated that "full compliance" was essential.
  • 还重申,美俄双方“完全遵守条约”至关重要。
  • NATO also called on Russia "to address these concerns in a substantial and transparent way."

  • Arguments over U.S.-Russia nuclear deployments are not new.
  • 对美国和俄罗斯核部署的争论并不新鲜。
  • Strategists have long disagreed about whether to counter Moscow's nuclear threat with escalation or restraint.
  • 针对是否以升级或克制来应对莫斯科的核威胁一事,战略家们一直是各执一词。
  • It's a high-stakes game of nuclear poker.
  • 这是一场高风险的核扑克游戏。
  • The Trump Administration, in its aggressive approach, is betting on coercion.
  • 特朗普政府,以积极的态度,赌强制手段。

  • the Trump Administration is not willing to engage on future arms agreements with Russia.
  • 特朗普政府未来就不会愿意再与俄罗斯达成军备协议。
  • That's a particular problem, because New START, a linchpin armscontrol agreement, will expire in three years.

  • whose bipartisan partnership was crucial to gaining ratification of nuclear-weapons treaties in the chaotic years following the Cold War,
  • 两人的跨党合作对于冷战后的混乱时期核武器条约能够得以通过至关重要,
  • fear an end to arms control altogether.
  • 担心军备控制的时代会彻底终结。
  • "We have severe erosion," Nunn says.
  • “我们的条约已经被严重侵蚀了,”纳恩说。
  • "We are going into a period of much greater risk in the nuclear arena."
  • “我们正在进入一个核竞技场风险大为上升的时期。”
  • Says Lugar: "The trend has been moving away from these sorts of international agreements,
  • 卢格说:“大家纷纷背离国际协议,
  • which is deeply troubling—and frankly dangerous."
