Michelle Kellerman: 作为NPR的国务院记者,我正在与鲁比奥国务卿一同出访中美洲。这次访问的重点是移民和贸易问题。在危地马拉,鲁比奥赞扬了该国重新安置被驱逐者的方式,并宣布了基础设施建设计划。然而,美国国际开发署(USAID)的解散引发了争议,该机构的官员们对此感到震惊,许多当地雇员对自己的未来感到不确定。鲁比奥表示,这是因为美国国际开发署没有给予足够的合作,甚至在命令发布后仍有人试图强行支付款项,所以不得不采取这种方式。总的来说,鲁比奥希望通过这次访问表明美国对该地区的重视,并加强在该地区的领导地位。他还视察了从巴拿马驱逐到哥伦比亚的移民航班,并与萨尔瓦多总统讨论了接收移民帮派成员和罪犯的提议。此外,巴拿马运河也是一个重要议题,但巴拿马总统表示,对运河的控制权不容讨论。
Marco Rubio: 不幸的是,美国国际开发署没有给予我们应有的合作。事实上,即使在命令下达之后,仍然有人试图强行推动付款。这种行为是对命令的公然违抗。因此,我们不得不采取与最初设想的相反的方式来处理这个问题。这并不是我们最初想要的方式,但现在我们不得不这样做。
