(回答先: 【これですよね→】 ロシア外相、新決議への拒否権行使の可能性に言及 [朝日] 投稿者 ファントムランチ 日時 2003 年 3 月 02 日 04:12:58)
ロシア外相の記者会見の発言を翻訳してみました。
BEIJING - Russia is ready to veto a U.S.-British resolution under discussion in the U.N. Security Council authorizing war against Iraq if such a step is necessary to preserve "international stability," Foreign Minister Igor Ivanov said Friday.
"Russia has the right to a veto in the U.N. Security Council and will use it if it is necessary in the interests of international stability," Ivanov said at a news conference.
「ロシアは安全保障理事会で拒否権を持っており、われわれは、国際社会の安定性の利益のために必要なら、それを使うつもりだ.」
The foreign minister's comments came a day after China and Russia issued a joint declaration saying war with Iraq "can and should be avoided" and appealing for more time for U.N. weapons inspectors there.
The United States is seeking votes to support a U.N. Security Council resolution authorizing war. France and Russia ― both permanent council members with veto power over U.N. activities ― as well as Germany are pushing a plan to strengthen and continue weapons inspections for at least four more months.
France, which has led the opposition to military action against Iraq, is also strongly opposed to the U.S.-backed resolution. France also has veto power and has hinted it might use it.
"Of course, if you use the veto power you should fully understand the responsibilities of it before using it. It can only be used for international peace and stability," Ivanov said.
「もちろん、もし拒否権を行使するとなると、それを行使する前にそれに伴う諸々の責任似ついて完全に理解する必要がある。拒否権行使は、あくまで、国際平和と安定性確保のためにのみ使うことができる」
"At the same time Russia will not be in favor of any new resolution which allows the use of military force directly or indirectly to solve the Iraqi issue."
「同時に、ロシアはイラク問題解決のために直接的にも間接的にも軍事力を使うことを許容するいかなる新決議にも賛成しない。」
この発言から読み取れることは、米英が新決議案をだしてきても、ロシアとしては、国際社会の安定のために、拒否権発動をするということの態度表明をしているように思えませんか?
