Bill Browder: 我认为特朗普对乌克兰的政策并非出于战略考量,而是基于他对泽连斯基的个人厌恶和对普京的个人好感。这与美国民众和两党的普遍共识相悖。我不认为俄罗斯掌握着可以用来要挟特朗普的‘不利信息’,因为他本身就极端且财务状况复杂,难以被任何一方完全控制。特朗普对乌克兰的态度可能源于其个人偏见,而非基于国家利益或战略考量。他的行为已经满足了普京的许多愿望,并可能进一步损害美国与乌克兰的关系以及北约的稳定性。他的行为体现了美国的软弱,而非其自诩的强大,他只关心自己的利益和叙事,不顾及国家利益。特朗普对俄罗斯的态度可能导致共和党内部出现裂痕,但其对外交政策的权力不受国会限制。我认为美国与乌克兰之间的矿产协议是不可取的,它更像是对乌克兰资源的剥削,而非真正的安全保障。应该立即没收被冻结的俄罗斯资产来资助乌克兰的防御,因为美国已经停止援助,而乌克兰需要资金来继续抵抗俄罗斯的侵略。除了没收俄罗斯资产外,欧洲还应该加强国防合作,形成有效的威慑力量,以应对来自俄罗斯的潜在威胁。美国对乌克兰政策的转变可能促使欧洲更加重视来自俄罗斯的威胁,并增加国防开支。没收被冻结的俄罗斯资产是让克里姆林宫感到恐惧的最有效方法之一。 James Hansen: 作为主持人,我没有表达个人观点,而是引导Bill Browder阐述其观点,并就相关问题进行提问。
