트럼프의 최근 '배신' 이후 미국인들은 '완전히 기분이 상했다': 상원의원

Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) didn’t mince words while launching into a forceful condemnation of President Donald Trump’s sudden shift on Ukraine in a CNN interview where he blasted the administration as a historic disgrace.

 

The criticism came Wednesday in response to remarks Trump made during the first cabinet meeting of his second term, where he ruled out offering U.S. security guarantees – or NATO membership – for Ukraine and President Volodymyr Zelensky.

애덤 쉬프 상원의원(민주당-캘리포니아)은 CNN 인터뷰에서 도널드 트럼프 대통령의 갑작스런 우크라이나 정책 바뀐 것에 대해 강력한 비난을 시작하면서 행정부를 역사적인 수치라고 맹비난했다.

 

이 비판은 수요일 트럼프가 두 번째 임기의 첫 번째 내각 회의에서 우크라이나와 볼로디미르 젤렌스키 대통령에 대한 미국의 안전 보장 또는 NATO 가입을 제안하는 것을 배제한 발언에 대한 응답으로 나왔다.

 

 

“This is an effort to pressure Zelensky into giving up something for nothing,” Schiff said when CNN’s Wolf Blitzer asked how the California lawmaker interpreted the president’s latest message in the fluid situation.

CNN의 울프 블리처(Wolf Blitzer)가 캘리포니아 의원이 유동적인 상황에서 대통령의 최신 메시지를 어떻게 해석하는지 묻자 쉬프는 "이것은 젤렌스키가 아무 대가 없이 무언가를 포기하도록 압력을 가하려는 노력"이라고 말했다.

 

“And I have to say this, on top of the resolution at the United Nations – where the United States sided with Russia, betrayed Ukraine – is one of the most shameful incidents in modern history,” Schiff told Blitzer. “I think millions and millions and millions of Americans watching this not only disagree with the president, but maybe for the first, time are just downright ashamed of the president because we have betrayed an ally.”

"유엔의 결의안 - 미국이 러시아의 편에 섰고, 우크라이나를 배신한 - 은 현대사에서 가장 부끄러운 사건 중 하나라고 말해야 한다"고 쉬프는 블리처에 말했다. "이 광경을 지켜보는 수백만의 미국인들은 대통령에 동의하지 않을 뿐만 아니라, 어쩌면 처음으로 우리가 동맹국을 배신했기 때문에 대통령을 완전히 부끄러워하고 있다고 생각한다."

 

But Schiff was just getting his dressing down of Trump started.

 

“We not only betrayed an ally, but we betrayed our principles,” he said of the Ukraine situation. “Are we to be nothing except transactional now? We have no commitment to democracy, no commitment to our allies. It’s all going to be about the money. That seems to be Donald Trump's orientation.”

He added: “But what a sad chapter of our history.”

 

Later in the interview, Schiff called Trump a “hostile U.S. president, who seems so beholden to Vladimir Putin." On the other hand, Zelensky, according to Schiff, “has been really Churchillian in his leadership through these three years of war.”

 

“Ukrainians have made just tremendous sacrifices and to be reduced to this by his most important ally, the United States, coming hat in hand with some kind of fig leaf offer of the mineral wealth of his country in exchange for little or nothing," Schiff concluded. "It is really just tawdry, but it is, you know, what this administration has reduced our allies to."
