欧洲领导人本周将最后一次努力说服美国总统唐纳德•特朗普(Donald Trump)坚守他威胁要放弃的、具有里程碑意义的《巴黎气候变化协定》。
French president Emmanuel Macron and his counterparts intend to seize on the US leader’s first visit to Europe to salvage the agreement to tackle global warming struck in 2015 after months of painstaking negotiation.
法国总统埃马纽埃尔•马克龙(Emmanuel Macron)及其他领导人想抓住特朗普首次访问欧洲的机会，来挽救这份经历了数月艰苦谈判而于2015年达成的对付全球变暖的协议。
“It has to be a collective effort,” a French official said yesterday, ahead of Mr Trump’s appearance at a Nato summit in Brussels today and a G7 meeting in Sicily on Friday. “Everybody is going to try to push the US president towards the same direction.”
“这必须是一项集体努力，”法国一名官员昨日表示，“大家将试着把美国总统往同一方向推。”特朗普今日将出席在布鲁塞尔举行的北约(NATO)峰会，周五将前往西西里参加七国集团(G7)会议。
Mr Trump signed an executive order in March rolling back climate change policies that will make it hard for the US to meet its commitments under the Paris accord, but he has not yet decided whether to follow through on his campaign pledge to ditch it altogether.
3月，特朗普签署一道行政命令、逆转了一些气候变化政策，这将使美国难以履行其在巴黎协议中的承诺，但他尚未决定是否兑现彻底撕毁巴黎协议的竞选承诺。
Rex Tillerson, secretary of state, told reporters en route to Brussels that the US “hasn’t made a final decision” on the agreement and probably will not until “after we get home”.
美国国务卿雷克斯•蒂勒森(Rex Tillerson)在前往布鲁塞尔的途中向记者们表示，美国对该协议“尚未作出最终决定”，而且很可能在“我们回国”之前不会做出决定。
The issue was raised at the Vatican yesterday, where Mr Trump met Pope Francis for the first time. The pontiff handed the US leader a copy of his 2015 encyclical on environmental protection, and Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican secretary of state, specifically urged the US to stay in the Paris accords.
该问题昨日在梵蒂冈被提起，特朗普在那里首次会晤教皇方济各(Pope Francis)。教皇交给这位美国领导人一份2015年他就环境保护发表的通谕的副本，梵蒂冈国务卿、红衣主教彼得罗•帕罗林(Cardinal Pietro Parolin)特别敦促美国坚守巴黎协议。
