法國梅斯9月28日(路透社)——教宗良十四世週一表示,尋求終結歐洲衝突的談判代表,必須願意為實現和平犧牲部分立場;目前終結俄羅斯對烏克蘭戰爭的努力仍持續失敗。METZ, France, Sept 28 (Reuters) - Pope Leo said on Monday that negotiators seeking to end conflict in Europe must be willing to sacrifice some positions to achieve peace, as efforts to end Russia's war in Ukraine continue to fail.
這位首位美國籍教宗在歐盟創始元老羅伯特・舒曼的故鄉梅斯,向歐洲領袖發表談話時表示,「戰爭已經回來了,甚至回到歐洲:一場新的、毫無意義的屠殺,每天奪走無數平民生命」。The first US pope, speaking to European leaders in Metz - home of Robert Schuman, a founding father of the European Union - said "war has returned, even to Europe: a new senseless slaughter, claiming countless civilian lives every day".
良十四世也提出了迄今最清楚的歐洲政治願景。在極右翼勢力於歐洲各地壯大的此刻,他讚揚整合與多元文化主義。Offering his clearest political vision yet for Europe, Leo also praised integration and multiculturalism at a time when the far right is gaining strength across the region.
他以法語發表演說,敦促歐洲人回想歐盟的創始價值,包括法治,以及所有人不分種族、膚色、階級或職業一律平等。他的演說獲得全場起立鼓掌。Speaking in French, he urged Europeans to recall the founding values of the EU, including the rule of law and the equality of all people without distinction of race, colour, class or profession. His speech received a standing ovation.
良十四世週五展開四天訪問時警告,聯合國及其他多邊機構正陷入危機,國際對話恐淪為一場「鬧劇」。Leo had begun his four-day visit on Friday with a warning that the United Nations and other multilateral bodies were in crisis and international dialogue risked becoming a "charade".
教宗呼籲透過對話終結戰爭POPE CALLS FOR DIALOGUE TO END WAR
週一在梅斯,良十四世把焦點轉向烏克蘭戰爭,但未直接提及烏克蘭。On Monday in Metz, he turned his attention to the war in Ukraine - without mentioning it directly.
他說:「我們需要……在談判中展現勇氣,並願意為了和平這項更大的善,放棄部分立場。」他並援引教宗本篤十五世在1917年第一次世界大戰殺戮期間發出的類似呼籲。"We need … to show courage in negotiation and to be willing to give up some positions for the greater good of peace," he said, invoking a similar 1917 appeal from Pope Benedict XV amid the carnage of World War One.
良十四世也重申,他反對歐洲軍費支出增加。在美國總統川普施壓以及俄羅斯態度強硬之下,歐洲軍費去年創下冷戰結束以來最大增幅。Leo also reiterated his opposition to rising European military spending, which grew last year by the highest amount since the end of the Cold War amid pressure from US President Donald Trump and Russian assertiveness.
他說:「我們也必須警惕,以為重新武裝就是答案的錯覺。」"We must also guard against the illusion that rearmament is the answer," he said.
「今天,我們必須自問,我們是否真正以創意努力推進世界和平,或者只是試圖『阻擋戰爭浪潮』,並讓自己更充分準備好迎接我們以為仍將到來的戰爭。」"Today we must ask whether we are truly making creative efforts to advance world peace, or whether we are simply seeking to 'stem the tide of war' and better prepare ourselves for wars that we assume are still to come."
烏克蘭總統澤倫斯基上週在紐約會晤川普,討論終結戰爭的方法。俄羅斯於2022年發動全面入侵,挑起這場戰爭,並已奪取烏克蘭五分之一領土。雙方都未展現任何讓出土地的意願。Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy last week met Trump in New York to discuss ways to end the war, which Russia began in 2022 with a full-scale invasion that has seized a fifth of Ukraine. Neither side has shown any willingness to concede land.
良十四世敦促歐洲接納移民LEO URGES EUROPE TO WELCOME MIGRANTS
良十四世站在法國總統馬克宏身旁,敦促歐洲領袖讓抵達歐洲大陸的移民融入社會,並像對待家人一樣給予他們機會。Standing next to French President Emmanuel Macron, Leo urged European leaders to integrate migrants arriving on the continent and offer them opportunities as if they were family members.
教宗經常敦促各國領袖以更人道方式對待移民;他再次呼籲為移民提供「合法且安全的途徑」,並透過國際合作打擊人口販運。The pope, who frequently urges leaders to treat migrants more humanely, repeated his call for "legal and safe pathways" for immigration, and international cooperation to fight human trafficking.
他說:「接納一個人,意味著把他們像自己家庭的一分子那樣納入其中,給予他們發展天賦、能力和感受力的機會。」"To welcome a person means to integrate them as if they were part of one's own family, offering them the opportunity to develop their gifts, abilities and sensibilities," he said.
良十四世發表談話前數小時,週一有三名移民在試圖從法國橫渡英吉利海峽前往英國時喪生,其中包括一名兒童。Three migrants including one child died on Monday, hours before Leo spoke, attempting to cross the Channel from France to Britain.
良十四世也批評過川普政府的美國反移民政策。他敦促歐洲維護法治,並接納多元文化主義。Leo has also criticised Trump's US anti-immigration policies. He urged Europe to maintain the rule of law, and welcome multiculturalism.
他說:「歐洲之所以繁榮進步,是因為它能汲取自身過去最好的面向,並透過與他者相遇,以新的、有創意的方式重新詮釋。」他同時也強調歐洲的基督宗教根源。"Europe has flourished and progressed when it has been able to draw on the best aspects of its past and reinvent them in new and creative ways through encounters with others," he said, also stressing Europe's Christian roots.
「今天,人與人、國與國之間的關係正變得愈來愈不文明。信守承諾的價值被棄之不顧;取而代之的是,人們炫耀謊言與欺瞞。歐洲可以藉由它學會培養並保存的對他人的尊重,協助打破這個循環。」"Today, relations between individuals and states are becoming increasingly uncivilised. The value of keeping one's word is dismissed; instead, people boast of lies and deceit. Europe can help to break this cycle through the respect for others that it has learned to cultivate and preserve."
良十四世隨後在梅斯13世紀哥德式大教堂,與數千名當地天主教徒一同舉行彌撒,並在彌撒中讚揚歐洲的多元文化身分。他說:「歐洲的未來不在於一致,而在於差異中的和諧。」Leo later celebrated a Mass with thousands of local Catholics at the 13th-century Gothic cathedral in Metz, where he praised Europe's multicultural identity. "Europe’s future does not lie in uniformity, but in the harmony of differences," he said.
31歲企業主史蒂法諾・蒙塔納說,良十四世造訪梅斯是「一生僅有一次的經歷」。Stefano Montana, a 31-year-old business owner, said Leo's visit to Metz was "a once-in-a-lifetime experience".
蒙塔納說:「梅斯曾是戰爭之地,而現在他帶來和平的訊息;這對歐洲的未來很重要。」"Metz was a land of war, and now he brings a message of peace; it is important for the future of Europe," Montana said.
