馬克宏表示，法國將派軍保護沙烏地阿拉伯紅海石油路線

巴黎，9月24日（路透社）——法國總統艾曼紐・馬克宏（Emmanuel Macron）週四表示，法國將向沙烏地阿拉伯派遣部隊與防禦系統，協助保護紅海港市延布（Yanbu）。延布是能源運輸的關鍵城市。PARIS, Sept 24 (Reuters) - France will send troops and defence systems to Saudi Arabia to help protect the Red Sea port city of Yanbu, which is key for energy transport, French President Emmanuel Macron said on Thursday.

馬克宏也表示，美國若禁止柴油出口，對全球與美國經濟都將是「災難性」的；白宮已否認正在考慮這項措施。Macron also said a US ban on diesel exports, which the White House has denied is under consideration, would be "catastrophic," both globally and for the US economy.

馬克宏是在一場黃金時段電視專訪中談及國際情勢時發表上述談話。這場訪問涵蓋議題廣泛，他也在訪問中警告俄羅斯可能攻擊法國領土。Macron was speaking in a wide-ranging primetime television interview on the international situation, in which he also warned about possible Russian attacks on French soil.

面對國內因能源價格高漲而日益升高的壓力，馬克宏試圖向法國民眾保證，隨著冬季將至，法國擁有充足的天然氣與石油供應。他說，巴黎正積極努力確保供應流通不受干擾。Facing growing pressure at home over high energy prices, Macron sought to assure the French that France had adequate gas and oil supplies as winter approaches. He said Paris was actively working to ensure flows were not disrupted.

近期原油價格大幅上漲，原因是沙烏地石油出口經由延布的主要替代路線，遭到葉門境內受伊朗支持的胡塞武裝發動飛彈攻擊。Crude oil prices have surged recently as the main alternative route for Saudi oil exports through Yanbu has come under missile attacks from Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis.

馬克宏告訴TF1與France 2電視台：「我們將派遣軍事資源，也就是士兵、雷達系統與防禦系統，來保護這處設施——不是為了讓我們捲入任何衝突，而是為了保護這處設施。」"We are going to send military resources, that is to say, soldiers, radar systems and defence systems, to protect this site - not to get us involved in any conflicts, but to protect this site," Macron told TF1 and France 2 TV.

俄羅斯威脅RUSSIAN THREAT

西班牙報紙《世界報》（El Mundo）報導稱，美國中央情報局曾警告歐洲各國政府，地中海可能出現無人機攻擊威脅。馬克宏駁斥了這項報導。Macron dismissed a report by Spanish newspaper El Mundo that the US Central Intelligence Agency had warned European governments about the threat of potential drone attacks from the Mediterranean.

他說：「我可以否認這件事。CIA並未通知法國部門。」"I can deny it. The CIA did not inform French services," he said.

不過，馬克宏表示，俄羅斯正加倍對歐洲國家採取敵對與犯罪行動，法國可能面臨類似萊比錫未遂攻擊的打擊。德國表示，俄羅斯應對8月針對萊比錫機場的未遂無人機攻擊負責。Still, Macron said Russia is multiplying hostile and criminal acts against European countries, and France could face strikes similar to the failed attack in Leipzig. Germany said Russia was responsible for an attempted drone attack in August on the Leipzig airport.

馬克宏上週在艾里賽宮召集法國各政黨領袖，向他們說明來自俄羅斯的威脅日益升高。他隨後表示，已命令政府擬定計畫，保護關鍵基礎設施免受無人機與網路攻擊。Macron gathered French party chiefs at the Elysee last week to brief them on the growing threat from Russia. He later said he had ordered his government to draw up a plan to protect critical infrastructure against drone and cyber attacks.

馬克宏表示，莫斯科正試圖恫嚇歐洲，並瓦解歐洲大陸支持烏克蘭的決心。Macron said Moscow was seeking to intimidate Europe and break the continent's resolve in supporting Ukraine.

俄羅斯表示，歐洲有關混合攻擊的指控毫無根據，是反俄歇斯底里的結果。Russia says European allegations of hybrid attacks are baseless and the result of anti-Russian hysteria.

然而，法國本週以國家安全疑慮為由，讓俄羅斯—烏茲別克金屬業大亨阿利舍爾・烏斯馬諾夫（Alisher Usmanov）獲得歐盟制裁豁免，震驚其他歐盟成員國，也削弱了馬克宏對俄羅斯的立場。此舉促使亞塞拜然赦免一名因間諜罪入獄的法國公民。Yet Macron's position on Russia was weakened this week after France shocked other EU members by getting Russian-Uzbek metals tycoon Alisher Usmanov exempted from EU sanctions, citing national security concerns. That prompted Azerbaijan to pardon a French national jailed for espionage.
