“西方正在变弱” 慕尼黑会议彰显华盛顿与其欧洲盟友之间的深刻分歧

蓬佩奥试图让担忧的欧洲合作伙伴感到安心(路透社)

由于美国总统特朗普政府采取的政策,在德国举办的慕尼黑安全会议引发了美国和欧盟这两个传统盟友之间未来关系上的深刻分歧,特朗普政府认为欧洲人有损美国人利益。

当地时间2月15日,美国国务卿蓬佩奥反驳欧洲有关美国退出国际舞台的悲观看法,称有关跨大西洋关系已死的说法过分夸大实情。

在慕尼黑安全会议上的讲话中,蓬佩奥诗图缓解欧洲对特朗普时代跨大西洋关系的担忧,蓬佩奥表示,“西方正在取得胜利,我们正在一起取得胜利。”

但是法国总统马克龙直接发表矛盾声明,警告“西方正在变弱”。

在面对中国和俄罗斯影响力增强情况下,西方势力下降的担忧主导了世界领导人以及高级军事和外交领导人举办年度安全会议,该会议旨在讨论安全挑战。

德国总统弗兰克-沃尔特·斯坦迈尔在慕尼黑安全会议开幕式上发表讲话中指出,美国“甚至拒绝国际社会的概念”,并且行事“以牺牲邻国和伙伴利益为代价”。但蓬佩奥反驳说,“这些声明并没有反映事实,”他并表示,“我很高兴报告,关于跨大西洋联盟已经死亡的说法被过分夸大了。”

蓬佩奥指出,美国在维护欧洲安全方面发挥了关键作用,加强了北约东部靠近俄罗斯边界的部分,并领导了多国行动打败了ISIS极端组织。

蓬佩奥提出质疑,“这是美国拒绝国际社会概念吗?”他并补充道,“西方国家比自由选择者拥有更好的未来。”他呼吁美国盟友对跨大西洋关系表示“信心”。



蓬佩奥还通过慕尼黑会议宣布,美国将资助东欧国家的能源项目,以减少对俄罗斯天然气的依赖。

在2017年“三海倡议”峰会上,特朗普提议向中东欧地区提供液化天然气,以免这些国家成为俄罗斯供应的“人质”。

北约秘书长延斯·斯托尔滕贝格在慕尼黑会议上发表的讲话中也向蓬佩奥表达了自己的声音,对会议所采取的悲观态度表示遗憾。

斯托尔滕贝格表示, “在许多领域和许多不同的参与者之间存在竞争,但是仅仅抱怨我们迷失了方向并不能为我们提供前进的道路。”

他强调说,“欧洲和北美是必不可少的伙伴。”

但是马克龙重申了德国的担忧。他表示,美国“正在审查与欧洲的关系”,并强调说,欧洲必须控制自己的命运。

马克龙补充说,“我们需要一种能够使我们复兴并将其转变为战略政治力量的欧洲战略。”

"The West is weakening" Munich conference highlights deep divisions between Washington and its European allies

Pompeo tries to reassure worried European partners (Reuters)

As a result of the policies adopted by the US President Trump administration, the Munich Security Conference in Germany triggered deep divisions in future relations between the two traditional allies of the United States and the European Union. The Trump administration believes Europeans are detrimental to American interests.

On February 15, local time, US Secretary of State Pompeo countered Europe's pessimistic view of the United States' withdrawal from the international stage, saying that the claim that the transatlantic relationship was dead was an overstatement.

In a speech at the Munich Security Conference, Pompeo Osto eased European concerns about Trump-era transatlantic relations. Pompeo said, "The West is winning, and we are winning together."

But French President Macron directly issued a contradictory statement warning that "the West is weakening."

Concerns about the decline of Western power in the face of China and Russia's increasing influence have led world leaders and senior military and diplomatic leaders to host annual security conferences designed to discuss security challenges.

German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier said in a speech at the opening ceremony of the Munich Security Conference that the United States "even rejects the concept of the international community" and acts "at the expense of the interests of its neighbors and partners". But Pompeo countered that "these statements did not reflect the facts," he also said, "I am pleased to report that the claim that the transatlantic alliance has died is overstated."

Pompeo pointed out that the United States played a key role in maintaining European security, strengthened the eastern part of NATO near the Russian border, and led a multinational operation to defeat ISIS extremist groups.

Pompeo questioned, "Is this the United States rejecting the concept of the international community?" He added, "Western countries have a better future than free choice." He called on US allies to show "confidence" in transatlantic relations.



Pompeo also announced through the Munich conference that the United States will fund energy projects in Eastern European countries to reduce dependence on Russian gas.

At the "Three Seas Initiative" summit in 2017, Trump proposed to provide LNG to Central and Eastern Europe to prevent these countries from becoming "hostages" of Russian supply.

NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg also expressed his voice to Pompeo in the speech delivered at the Munich conference and expressed regret at the pessimistic attitude adopted by the conference.

Stoltenberg said, "There is competition in many areas and with many different players, but just complaining that we have lost our way does not provide us with a way forward."

He emphasized that "Europe and North America are essential partners."

But Macron reiterated German concerns. He said the United States "is reviewing relations with Europe" and stressed that Europe must control its own destiny.

Macron added, "We need a European strategy that will restore us and transform it into a strategic political force."

‘Is the democratic system so fragile?’ Audience applauds as Pelosi’s Huawei scare session prompts rebuke from Chinese delegate

Nancy Pelosi, who brought a squad of US lawmakers to Munich, argued passionately that dropping Huawei technology is about keeping democracy, until an unorthodox intervention by a Chinese diplomat left her facing a tough argument.
“National security, economy and values all come together on the Huawei issue,”Pelosi proclaimed during the third day of the Munich Security Conference (MSC), devoting the bulk of her press briefing to Huawei and Beijing’s “digital autocracy.”

Adopting or not adopting Huawei solutions – particularly their 5G products – “is about choosing autocracy over democracy on the information highway,”she insisted, likening the process to “putting the state police in the pocket of every consumer in these countries.
As someone who helped renew the NSA’s spying powers two years ago, Pelosi wisely chose to refrain from mentioning US mass surveillance, famously exposed by Edward Snowden and other whistleblowers.
She also failed to say what makes America’s surveillance more democratic than that which is attributed to Huawei. Her subsequent remarks, however, shed some light on America’s rationale behind targeting the Chinese tech giant.
“Why would we give license to the Chinese to direct the traffic on that information highway of the future?” the speaker asked bluntly, adding, “There’s a big price to pay.”
Pelosi took aim at Huawei the day before, when she was a keynote speaker at MSC Saturday’s panel. Her passionate speech, delivered from an autocue, went awry when Fu Ying, a former Chinese envoy to the UK and a career diplomat, stole the show.
“I think my knowledge about how the world works is that technologies are tools,” Fu said, speaking in a quiet, reproving voice.

She pointed out that China had used all kinds of Western technologies – including those of Microsoft, IBM, and Amazon – but had “maintained its political system, the system led by the Communist Party; it’s not threatened by the technologies.”
How come if Huawei technologies, with 5G, are introduced into Western countries, [they] will threaten the political system? Do you really think the democratic system is so fragile that it could be threatened by this single hi-tech company, Huawei?
Pelosi wasn’t the only US official in Munich to stir up fears over China. Defense Secretary Mark Esper and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo had even stronger words to say on the issue, claiming that Huawei’s 5G technology is part of Beijing’s “nefarious strategy” of undermining Western infrastructure and serves as the “Trojan horse” of Chinese intelligence.

Speaking after the US top brass, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi used the floor to hit back. Calling the US allegations “lies not based on facts,” he offered: “But if we [change] the subject of the lie from China to America, maybe those lies become facts?”
