时间:2018-11-29 作者:英语课 分类:VOA标准英语2016年(十二月)
The United States has partnered with the countries of East Africa to counter violent extremism. On a recent trip to Kenya and Djibouti, U.S. Deputy Coordinator 1 for Counterterrorism Michael Ortiz met with senior government officials, local and county officials, and members of civil society who are working to counter terrorism and violent extremism.
Kenya fulfilled its pledge to host a regional countering violent extremism or CVE Summit in June 2015 and is emerging as a regional leader on this issue. In recent months, the Kenyan government introduced a national countering violent extremism strategy and appointed a senior-level diplomat 2 to lead and coordinate 3 implementation 4 of the strategy's action plan. During his trip, Deputy Coordinator Ortiz discussed with Kenyan officials the importance of partnering with communities and civil society.
He also emphasized President Barack Obama's and Secretary John Kerry's message that protecting human rights and building trust in security forces is essential to preventing and countering radicalization. Mr. Ortiz underscored that Kenya can benefit greatly by working closely with civil society, religious leaders, and its international security partners to end violent extremism.

Local communities on the front lines in the fight against violent extremism must be empowered to stop the process of radicalization to violence. That is why the United States has helped establish organizations like the Strong Cities Network and the Global Community Engagement and Resilience Fund and launched initiatives such as the Global Counterterrorism Forum's Initiative to Address the Lifecycle to Radicalization to Violence. Just this year, the State Department and the U.S. Agency for International Development started implementing 5 a $7.5 million effort to support the Counterterrorism Partnership 6 Fund in Kenya.
The U.S. will continue to assist it partners in East Africa to tackle terrorism and violent extremism and stands ready to lead in this fight.
美国已与东非国家开展合作,以打击暴力极端主义。在最近去往肯尼亚和吉布提的出访中,美国反恐怖主义助理协调员迈克尔奥尔蒂斯与两国高级政府官员以及当地市县官员会晤,后者也正在积极打击恐怖主义和暴力极端主义。
2015年6月,肯尼亚履行了举办反恐怖主义的地区峰会(亦称反暴力极端主义CVE- Countering Violent Extremism峰会)的承诺,在反恐怖主义的问题上,肯尼亚处于地区领先地位。近几个月以来,肯尼亚政府引进了国家反暴力极端主义战略,并任命了一位高级外交官来为该战略行动方案的实施做牵头和协调。美方协调员奥尔蒂斯在出访过程中与肯尼亚官员探讨了与社群和民间社会进行合作的重要性。
奥尔蒂斯还重申了总统奥巴马和国务卿克里的观点,即保护人权和重建对安保力量的信任对于阻止和打击极端主义很重要。奥尔蒂斯强调,与民间社会、宗教领袖及国际安全合作伙伴密切合作能极大地帮助肯尼亚结束暴力极端主义。
在线招募恐怖组织成员以及暴力极端主义始终是严峻挑战。对此奥尔蒂斯强调,我们必须付出更多努力来教育家长、老师和其他社群领袖,使其学会在悲剧发生前对青年人形成良好的影响。
处于反暴力极端主义战场一线的各个当地社群要有足够能力阻止暴力极端主义的进程。美国正是出于这个原因,助力成立了“城市强网络”、“全球反恐社群会”、“反恐恢复基金会”等组织,还创办了诸如全球反暴力极端主义论坛等活动。就在今年,美国国务院及美国国际开发署斥资750万美元,以支持肯尼亚的反恐合作基金。
美国将继续协助其东非伙伴打击恐怖主义和暴力极端注意,并愿意引领这场战斗。
