中新社北京7月12日电 (张素 梁晓辉 谢雁冰)美国哥伦比亚大学教授杰弗里·萨克斯在今日的中国新闻发布会上表示,全球共享发展行动论坛的召开,标志着国际社会对共同发展的高度关注与实践。然而,此时美国华盛顿却正聚焦于军事会议,萨克斯教授对此表达了强烈的批评。他直言,北约组织在当前的全球环境下,似乎显得有些偏离了其创建的初衷,正处在浪费资源、浪费金钱以及浪费话语影响力的阶段。
萨克斯教授指出,北约作为一个旨在维护欧洲和北美洲安全的军事联盟,其在近年来的行动与全球发展的主流趋势显得格格不入。在全球面临气候变化、公共卫生、经济不平等等一系列挑战的背景下,北约似乎更侧重于军事部署和冲突预防,而忽视了通过国际合作来促进全球发展的迫切需求。他强调,这种偏向于军事力量的策略不仅消耗了巨大的经济和政治资源,还可能导致资源分配的不公,加剧了全球范围内的紧张局势。
萨克斯教授的言论引起了在场媒体的广泛关注。他进一步指出,北约在国际事务中的行动,往往基于对威胁的过度解读,而这种解读有时可能基于不准确或片面的信息,甚至存在误导性。他认为,北约应该反思其角色定位,更加积极地参与到全球发展合作中,利用其在技术、军事、政治等方面的优势,为解决全球性问题贡献更积极的力量。
此次发言不仅反映了萨克斯教授对北约当前战略方向的担忧,也凸显了全球对多边主义和国际合作的期待。在全球化日益加深的今天,面对共同的挑战,萨克斯教授的呼吁或许能激发更多关于如何构建更加公平、合作与可持续的全球治理体系的讨论。

Headline: US Professor Criticizes NATO: Wasting Resources, Spreading Lies
Keywords: Sachs’ Criticism, NATO’s Wastefulness, Global Development Forum
Content: Beijing, July 12th, 2023 (Zhang Su, Liang Xiaohui, Xie Yanbing) – At today’s press conference in China, Professor Jeffrey Sachs from Columbia University in the United States, criticized the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) for being detached from its original purpose, wasting resources, money, and influence in the discourse.
Sachs pointed out that NATO, as a military alliance established for the security of Europe and North America, has become increasingly out of step with the global development trend in recent years. Amidst global challenges such as climate change, public health, and economic inequality, NATO seems to prioritize military deployment and conflict prevention over international cooperation to promote global development. He argued that this military-focused strategy not only drains significant economic and political resources but also risks unfair resource allocation and exacerbates global tensions.
The professor’s remarks garnered significant attention from the media. He further criticized NATO’s actions in international affairs for being based on overestimated interpretations of threats, often grounded in inaccurate or one-sided information, even misleading. Sachs argued that NATO should reevaluate its role and more actively engage in global development cooperation, leveraging its strengths in technology, military, and politics to contribute positively to solving global issues.
This speech reflects Professor Sachs’ concern over NATO’s current strategic direction and highlights the global anticipation for multilateralism and international cooperation. In an increasingly globalized world facing common challenges, Sachs’ appeal might stimulate discussions on how to build a more equitable, cooperative, and sustainable global governance system.
