@Pippa Crerar : 我认为特朗普改变了全球对话,这为乌克兰争取和平创造了机会。但我们必须确保乌克兰参与谈判,因为任何协议都不能缺少乌克兰。国际政治形势复杂多变,难以预测,最近一周的事件就充分说明了这一点。特朗普与普京的通话打破了西方国家对俄罗斯的孤立,使得俄乌战争的国际局势更加复杂。特朗普与泽连斯基之间的言语冲突加剧了紧张局势,泽连斯基甚至表示愿意为了和平或北约成员资格辞职。美国在联合国就俄乌战争的决议草案立场转变,不再谴责莫斯科的行为。英国政府在应对特朗普言行时采取谨慎态度,避免直接冲突,更关注特朗普的实际行动而非言论。欧洲正在适应美国可能不再是友好国家的事实。我认为特朗普与普京之间存在某种程度上的共鸣,他们都对西方的道德观念持批评态度。意大利总理对特朗普的策略是指出普京并非他的对手,特朗普比普京强大得多。乌克兰已经为特朗普可能采取的行动做好了准备,并寻求持续的盟友支持。 @Kieran Stacey : 我同意Pippa的观点,当前的国际局势非常复杂。英国政府在处理与特朗普的关系时,采取了一种谨慎的策略,避免直接冲突。我们更关注特朗普的实际行动,而不是他的言论。Starmer即将访问华盛顿,他需要在与特朗普会面时,直截了当,避免冗长,并展现出对国家利益的维护。同时,Starmer需要将英国的要求与美国的利益结合起来,以符合特朗普的“美国优先”外交政策。英国驻华盛顿大使正在为与特朗普团队建立更紧密的经济关系铺路。与印度的贸易谈判非常困难,因为印度并非一个非常开放的经济体。与国会议员建立联系的关键在于主动联系,并展现出对他们工作的兴趣。
