Greg Myre: 我报道了迈克·沃尔兹被免去国家安全顾问一职的事件。特朗普总统表示,他将提名沃尔兹担任美国驻联合国大使。这表明特朗普对沃尔兹的表现并不满意。沃尔兹将记者意外添加到Signal群聊中,以及他的一些政策立场与特朗普不一致,可能是导致他被免职的原因。他被免职可能是对他某些行为的惩罚,而且他需要经过参议院确认才能担任新的联合国大使职位。鲁比奥将暂时接替沃尔兹的职位,但他同时担任国务卿和国家安全顾问两个职位,在实际操作上存在挑战,因为这两个职位需要在不同地点工作。 此外,国防部长皮特·赫格塞斯也卷入了Signal群聊事件,但他目前似乎仍然安全,但五角大楼内部仍然存在动荡。特朗普政府目前面临着多项棘手的对外政策问题,包括俄乌战争、以巴冲突和也门战争。 Asma Khalid: 就目前而言,我们还没有听到特朗普总统就此事发表评论,解释他做出这一决定的原因。副总统试图淡化这一事件的争议性,声称这与Signal群聊无关。国家安全顾问的职位比联合国大使的职位更有影响力,而且沃尔兹的新职位需要参议院确认,这可能会带来新的问题。鲁比奥同时担任国务卿和国家安全顾问两个职位,在实际操作上存在挑战。特朗普总统任命官员同时担任多个职位的做法并不常见,这在特朗普的第二个任期中似乎成为一种趋势。
