Italy and the EU vote for US missiles in Europe
意大利和欧盟投票支持美国在欧洲的导弹

Near the United Nations Glass Palace in New York, there is a metallic sculpture entitled “Evil Defeated by Good”, representing Saint George transfixing a dragon with his lance. It was donated by the USSR in 1990 to celebrate the INF Treaty concluded with the USA in 1987, which banned land-based short- and mid-range nuclear missiles (a reach of between 500 and 5,000 km). Symbolically,the body of the dragon is in fact made with pieces of US Pershing-2 ballistic missiles (originally based in West Germany) and Soviet SS-20 missiles (originally based in the USSR).
在纽约联合国玻璃宫附近，有一座名叫“被善良打败的邪恶”的金属雕塑，代表圣乔治用长矛刺龙。1990年，苏联捐赠了它来庆祝1987年与美国缔结的《中程导弹》条约，该条约禁止陆基中短程核导弹（射程在500到5000公里之间）。象征性的是，这条龙的身体实际上是由美国的潘兴-2弹道导弹（最初位于西德）和苏联的SS-20导弹（最初位于苏联）制作而成的。
But the nuclear dragon, which in the sculpture is shown as dying, is now being reborn. Thanks to Italy and other countries of the European Union, which, at the United Nations General Assembly, voted against the resolution presented by Russia on the “Preservation and Implementation of the INF Treaty”, rejected by 46 to 43 with 78 abstentions.
但是，在雕塑中表现为死亡的核龙，现在正在重生。这是因为意大利和欧洲联盟其他国家在联合国大会上，以46票赞成，43票反对，78票弃权的投票结果，反对俄罗斯提出的“保存和执行《中程导弹》条约”的决议。
The European Union – of which 21 of its 27 members are part of NATO (including the United Kingdom, which is currently leaving the EU) – has thus taken a uniform stance with the position of NATO, which in turn has taken a uniform stance with that of the United States.
欧盟27个成员国中有21个是北约成员国（包括目前正在退出欧盟的英国），因此对北约的立场采取了统一的立场，而北约又与美国采取了统一的立场。
The Obama administration first, followed by the Trump administration, have accused Russia, without any proof, of experimenting with a missile from the forbidden category, and have announced their intention of withdrawing from the INF Treaty. At the same time, they have launched a programme aimed at renewing the installation of nuclear missiles in Europe to guard against Russia, while others will also be based in the Asia-Pacific region against China.
首先是奥巴马政府，其次是川普政府，在没有任何证据的情况下，指责俄罗斯试验了一种被禁止的导弹，并宣布他们打算退出中程核武器条约。与此同时，他们还启动了一项计划，旨在更新欧洲的核导弹安装，以防范俄罗斯，而其他国家也将在亚太地区针对中国。
The Russian representative at the UN has warned that “this constitutes the beginning of a full-blown arms race”. In other words, he warned that if the United States should once again install in Europe nuclear missiles pointed at Russia (as were the Cruise missiles based in Comiso in the 1980's), Russia would once again install, on its own territory, similar weapons pointed at targets in Europe (but which would be unable to reach the USA).
俄罗斯驻联合国代表警告说，“这是全面军备竞赛的开始”。换句话说，他警告说，如果美国再次在欧洲安装指向俄罗斯的核导弹（就像20世纪80年代在科米索的巡航导弹一样），俄罗斯将再次在自己的领土上安装指向欧洲目标的类似武器（但这些武器将无法到达美国）。
Ignoring all that, the EU representative at the UNO accused Russia of sabotaging the INF Treaty, and announced the opposition vote by all the countries of the Union because “the resolution presented by Russia avoids the question under discussion”. Essentially, therefore, the European Union has given the green light to the possible installation of new US missiles in Europe, including Italy.
尽管如此，联合国的欧盟代表指责俄罗斯破坏了《中程导弹》条约，并宣布了欧盟所有国家的反对投票，因为“俄罗斯提出的决议避开了讨论中的问题”。因此，从本质上讲，欧盟已经为可能在欧洲（包括意大利）安装新的美国导弹开了绿灯。
On a question of this importance, the Conte government, like its predecessors, has abandoned the exercise of national sovereignty and aligned itself with the EU, which, has in turn adopted the position of NATO, under US command. And across the entire political arc, not one voice has been raised to request that it should be the Parliament which decides how to vote at the UNO. And similarly, no voice has been raised in Parliament to request that Italy observe the Non-Proliferation Treaty, which requires that the USA must withdraw its B61 nuclear bombs from our national territory, and must also abstain from installing here, as from the first half of 2020, the new and even more dangerous B61-12's.
在这个重要的问题上，现政府和其前任一样，放弃了行使国家主权，并与欧盟保持一致，而欧盟又在美国的指挥下采取了北约的立场。在整个政治圈内，没有一个声音要求议会决定如何在联合国毒品和犯罪问题办公室投票。同样，议会也没有提出要求意大利遵守《不扩散条约》的声音，该条约要求美国必须从我国领土上撤回其B61核弹，并且必须从2020年上半年起，禁止在这里安装新的甚至更危险的B61-12。
So this is a new violation of the fundamental constitutional principle that “sovereignty belongs to the people”. And since the politico-media apparatus swaddles Italians in the ignorance of these questions of such vital importance, it is also a violation of our right to information, not only in the sense of the freedom to inform, but also the right to be informed.
这是对“主权属于人民”基本宪法原则的新的违背。由于政治媒体机构，把意大利人蒙蔽在对这些至关重要的问题的无知中，这也侵犯了我们获得信息的权利，不仅在信息自由的意义上，而且在被告知的权利上。
We must do this now, or else tomorrow there will be no time to decide – a mid-range ballistic missile can reach and destroy its target with its nuclear warhead in between 6 and 11 minutes.
我们现在必须行动起来反对这件事，否则明天就没有时间来决定 —— 一枚中程弹道导弹可以在6到11分钟内用核弹头达到并摧毁其目标。
