俄亥俄州共和党众议员迈克·特纳呼吁对乌克兰军队上周暂时失去使用星链军用版的情况展开调查。
Rep. Mike Turner (R-Ohio) called for an investigation into Ukrainian forces losing access to a military version of Starlink temporarily last week.
在CBS《面对国家》节目中,特纳被问及国务卿马尔科·卢比奥称该故障“某种程度上发生”是否足以向武装服务委员会的议员们作出解释。
Appearing on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” Turner was asked if Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying the outage “sort of happened” was sufficient explanation for lawmakers on the Armed Services Committee.
“绝对不行。我的意思是,这件事需要进行调查。需要进行国会调查,”他说。“需要进行调查。我们需要弄清楚这些人是谁,因为生命正面临风险,生命正因这些事情而丧失。”
“Absolutely not. I mean, this is something where there needs to be an investigation. There needs to be a congressional investigation,” he said. “There needs to be an investigation. We need to find out who these people are because lives are at risk and lives are lost over these things.”
特纳——众议院武装服务委员会成员——还引用了有关报道,称服务仍然不稳定,特别是在乌克兰“他们试图自卫”的地区。“这对美国在乌克兰防御俄罗斯真实的侵略性攻击中的支持至关重要,这一点需要得到恢复,”他说。
Turner – a member of the House Armed Services Committee – also cited reports that alleged service is still spotty, specifically within the area of Ukraine “where they’re trying to defend themselves.”“This is essential to the United States’ support of Ukraine in defending real aggressive attacks by Russia within Ukraine, and this needs to be restored,” he said.
主持人玛格丽特·布伦南随后追问特纳,他对管理星链访问的SpaceX创始人埃隆·马斯克的看法,马斯克在社交媒体上断言他不希望星链被用于进攻性军事行动。
Host Margaret Brennan followed up with Turner, asking his thoughts on SpaceX founder Elon Musk, who manages over Starlink access, asserting on social media he did not want Starlink used for offensive military action.
“但这是在乌克兰境内。这是在乌克兰境内防御乌克兰免受侵略,”特纳表示。“并且应该进行调查,弄清楚原因,并且应该完全恢复。”本周早些时候,乌克兰军方报告称其对星盾——基于卫星的系统的军用版——的访问受到限制。一位熟悉此事的消息人士向《国会山报》透露,星链服务被专门切断了针对时速超过100英里的物体,这影响了乌克兰无人机、飞机和直升机的能力。
“But this is within Ukraine. This is defending Ukraine against aggression within Ukraine,” Turner stated. “And there should be an investigation as to why and it should be completely restored.”Earlier this week, the Ukrainian military reported restricted access to Starshield, the military version of the satellite-based system. A source familiar with the matter told The Hill that Starlink services were specifically cut off for objects that traveled more than 100 mph, impacting the capabilities of Ukraine’s drones, airplanes and helicopters.
马斯克几乎立即将故障问题推给了特朗普总统,而特朗普则声称他本人以及SpaceX创始人均未导致该故障。
Musk almost immediately deferred to President Trump regarding the outage, while the president claimed he nor the SpaceX founder caused the outage.
“我没有做那件事。不,我们根本没有做那件事。事实上,我甚至不认为它被减速了,至少是根据我所了解的情况。因为我刚刚今天早上检查过了,”特朗普周五离开白宫前往佐治亚州参加竞选集会时对记者说。
“I didn’t do that. No, we didn’t do that at all. In fact, I don’t even think it was slowed down from what I understood. Because I just checked this morning,” Trump told reporters Friday as he left the White House en route to a campaign rally in Georgia.
乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基在布鲁塞尔的周五新闻发布会上驳斥了特朗普的说法,称这些系统已恢复正常功能。
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky disputed Trump’s claims that the systems had been restored to normal function at a Friday news conference in Brussels.
“它们是否恢复到了之前的速度限制?没有。但它们是否在恢复?是的,”他这样说,据美联社报道。
“Have they returned to previous speed limits? No. But is it coming back? Yes,” he said, according to the Associated Press.
