9月15日（路透）——5名熟悉此事的消息人士表示，美國官員上週末在阿曼會見葉門胡塞武裝代表；數日前，這支受伊朗支持的民兵組織才發動大規模攻勢，擊潰沙烏地阿拉伯支持的部隊，奪取紅海沿岸一段具戰略意義的地帶。Sept 15 (Reuters) - U.S. officials met representatives of Yemen's Houthis in Oman over the weekend, five sources familiar with the matter said, days after the Iran-backed militia seized a strategic stretch of the Red Sea coast in a sweeping offensive that routed Saudi-backed forces.

3名不願具名的消息人士表示，這場尚未公開的會面是在位於馬斯喀特的美國大使館舉行。2名消息人士表示，長期擔任區域調停者的阿曼政府協助安排了這場會面。The meeting, which has not been made public, was held at the U.S. Embassy in Muscat, three of the sources said on the condition of anonymity. Two sources said that Oman's government, a longtime regional mediator, helped organise the meeting.

川普政府2025年3月將胡塞武裝列為「外國恐怖組織」，將支持該組織定為犯罪。但華府此後仍與其談判，並在去年5月達成停火；在此之前，美方轟炸該組織兩個月，以制止其攻擊紅海航運的行動。The Trump administration designated the Houthis a "foreign terrorist organization" in March 2025, criminalising support for the group. But Washington has negotiated with them since, reaching a ceasefire in May last year after bombing the group for two months to halt a campaign of attacks on Red Sea shipping.

美國總統唐納・川普週六表示，胡塞武裝曾致電他的政府，要求美國不要介入葉門戰爭。副總統JD・范斯週一表示，美國正與該組織直接接觸，但未提供細節。President Donald Trump said on Saturday that the Houthis had phoned his administration asking the United States to keep out of the Yemen war. Vice President JD Vance said on Monday the United States was in direct contact with the group, without giving details.

2名消息人士表示，在這場會面中，胡塞武裝告訴美國官員，他們無意攻擊美國船隻，並承諾遵守2025年與美國達成的停火協議。其中1名消息人士稱，會面是在週日舉行。In the meeting, which one source said took place on Sunday, the Houthis told U.S. officials that they had no intention of attacking American vessels and that they were committed to the 2025 ceasefire with the U.S., two sources said.

其中1名葉門籍消息人士表示，這個民兵組織也說，他們不會攻擊以色列船隻或任何商船，但屬於沙烏地阿拉伯的船隻除外。One of the sources, a Yemeni, said the militia group also said they would not attack Israeli ships or any commercial vessels, except those belonging to Saudi Arabia.

據其中2名消息人士說法，美方由使館人員代表出席。According to two of the sources, the U.S. side was represented by embassy personnel.

其中1名消息人士表示，胡塞武裝代表團包括一名駐馬斯喀特、受到美國制裁的高階官員穆罕默德・阿卜杜勒薩拉姆。另1名消息人士證實阿卜杜勒薩拉姆出席，並表示另一名胡塞武裝高階官員阿卜杜勒馬利克・阿吉里也在場。One of those sources said the Houthi delegation included a senior official based in Muscat who is under U.S. sanctions, Mohammad Abdulsalam. Another source confirmed Abdulsalam's presence along with that of another senior Houthi official, Abdelmalik al-Ajiri.

被問及美國是否曾在阿曼與胡塞武裝會面時，美國國務院一名發言人未證實這場會面，但表示維護紅海航行自由，以及防止恐怖主義從中東輸出，是美國的核心利益。Asked whether the U.S. had met with the Houthis in Oman, a State Department spokesperson did not confirm the meeting, but said safeguarding freedom of navigation in the Red Sea and preventing the export of terrorism from the Middle East were core U.S. interests.

阿曼駐美大使館及胡塞武裝高階官員阿卜杜勒薩拉姆未回應採訪請求。Oman's embassy in the U.S. and senior Houthi official Abdulsalam did not respond to a request for comment.

胡塞武裝上週實際控制了葉門整條紅海海岸線，包括歷史悠久的摩卡港，以及位於紅海入海口曼德海峽——又稱「淚之門」——的佩里姆島。The Houthis last week seized effective control of Yemen's entire Red Sea coastline, including the historic port of Mocha, and Perim Island in the Bab el-Mandeb, or "Gate of Tears" strait, at the sea's mouth.

胡塞武裝於2014年奪取葉門首都，並與沙烏地阿拉伯領導的聯軍交戰超過10年。近年來，這場戰爭在停火之下趨於平靜，但7月胡塞武裝為回應沙烏地阿拉伯封鎖葉門港口，宣布封鎖紅海上的沙烏地船運後，戰事再度爆發。The Houthis, who seized Yemen's capital in 2014, have fought against a Saudi-led coalition for more than a decade. The war had quietened under a ceasefire in recent years, but fighting resumed in July when the Houthis declared a blockade on Saudi shipping in the Red Sea in response to a Saudi blockade of Yemeni ports.

沙烏地阿拉伯實質統治者、王儲穆罕默德・沙爾曼上週致電川普，因胡塞武裝大幅推進而尋求美國軍事支援。路透已報導，華府告訴利雅德，美國不會直接介入。Saudi Arabia's de facto ruler Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman called Trump last week seeking U.S. military support amid the dramatic Houthi advances. Reuters has reported that Washington told Riyadh it would not get directly involved.
