Saagar: 我认为马可·卢比奥关于乌克兰战争的言论代表了即将上任的政府的政策转变,他们不再坚持乌克兰必须收复所有失地,而是更现实地看待冲突的解决。这标志着美国政策的重大转变,基辅方面可能会对此感到不安。 此外,卢比奥被提名为国务卿,这与特朗普政府的反战倾向相悖。克里斯·墨菲对卢比奥关于特朗普的腐败和与中东政府的经济纠葛的质问至关重要,这揭示了特朗普的财务纠葛对其外交政策的潜在影响。 《纽约时报》呼吁对委内瑞拉采取军事干预,以及卢比奥可能采取的政策,是特朗普政府面临的最大风险之一。我们需要密切关注委内瑞拉局势,因为这可能导致严重的地区冲突。 Krystal: 我认为结束乌克兰战争很困难,因为美国对俄罗斯的制衡能力有限,而对乌克兰的完全控制又需要俄罗斯的配合。卢比奥的观点虽然现实,但也反映了美国在乌克兰问题上的复杂立场。 此外,帕姆·邦迪对2020年大选结果的回应是典型的,而图尔西·加巴德的确认听证会则显得最为不确定,这反映了美国政治的复杂性和不确定性。 我认为特朗普的财务纠葛对他的外交政策有重大影响,克里斯·墨菲的质问揭示了这一点。《纽约时报》呼吁对委内瑞拉采取军事干预,这令人担忧,这表明美国在拉丁美洲政策方面可能存在激进倾向。
