美國總統川普與俄羅斯達成柴油供應安排以期降低燃料價格,但遭共和黨內反對並引發烏克蘭批評。
美國總統川普與俄羅斯總統普廷達成柴油供應安排,宣稱有助降低燃料價格,卻引發共和黨內反彈。賓州共和黨籍聯邦眾議員菲茨派翠克(Brian Fitzpatrick)10日表示,將提出以美國前總統雷根「以實力求和平」理念命名的法案,試圖阻止購買俄羅斯石油,並透過特殊國會程序,繞過眾議院領導層,迫使法案交付表決。
美國政治新聞網站《Axios》報導,菲茨派翠克是國會烏克蘭核心小組共同主席。他準備提出《雷根以實力求和平法案》(Ronald Reagan Peace Through Strength Act),並運用「解除請願書」(discharge petition)推動表決。內布拉斯加州共和黨籍眾議員培根(Don Bacon)已表示,他同意簽署請願。
218人連署才能繞過眾院領導層
解除請願書是美國眾議院的一種議事程序,允許議員在法案被委員會扣留、或未獲多數黨領導層與委員會主席支持時,強行將法案從委員會「釋放」並送上院會進行討論與表決,必須取得218名議員簽署。
菲茨派翠克在社群平台X表示,法案將透過這項程序交付院會表決,並預測將以壓倒性票數通過。不過,請願尚未達到連署門檻,法案也還沒有經過表決。
川普9日表示,俄羅斯將立即向美國及全球市場供應逾30萬噸柴油,後續還會有更多貨運。川普將這項安排宣傳為降低燃料價格的手段,但能源分析人士懷疑,新增供應能否實質壓低價格。烏克蘭總統澤倫斯基則強調,這項交易「不公平,也不誠實」,形同送給普廷一份禮物。
川普10日還呼籲烏克蘭更換澤倫斯基,改由願意與俄羅斯達成協議的領導人接任。柴油交易因而不只涉及能源價格,也牽動美國對俄羅斯及烏克蘭的政策。
菲茨派翠克與培根今年稍早曾推動涉及援助烏克蘭、以及對俄制裁的法案交付眾院表決。當時法案雖在眾院通過,後續卻在參議院停滯,顯示眾院表決並不代表法案就能完成立法。
這次法案同樣面臨時間壓力。美國眾院預定在11月3日期中選舉後才恢復表決,本屆國會則將於明年1月結束。即使法案在眾院過關,仍須取得參議院批准,也可能遭川普否決。白宮尚未回應該媒體對這項法案的置評請求。
