A | Kenny 报道 5月1日,新西兰外交部长Winston Peters在惠灵顿发表演说,称新西兰应考虑加入奥库斯第二支柱所带来的技术收益。他还批评前工党政府对奥库斯协议的突然转变立场。

B | Colombo, Oct 17 (UNI) Coats International Global CEO Rajiv Sharma says he is confident that Sri Lanka’s apparel industry will rebound and the economy will bounce back.
“It’s actually happening as we speak, despite the last three months of unrest and confusion,” the Daily FT newspaper on Monday quoted him as saying.
Sharma, who was on a flying visit to Sri Lanka to meet customers and employees, says the vibe was very good in the country. “You could never get a Sri Lankan down or depressed because there’s always happiness, optimism and a belief that tomorrow will be better than today."
The CEO says the support the country gets internationally was clearly seen, owing to the goodwill Sri Lanka has built over several decades.
“I meet customers in Europe and the US who are empathetic and are genuinely willing to support Sri Lanka and its apparel industry. Everyone wants to go the extra mile with their support. The way I see it, this crisis is just a bump along the road to greater prosperity for Sri Lanka.”
Sharma also spoke positively about the global market.
“There is no demand destruction happening at a large-scale. So I believe the world economy will continue to be resilient. While there will be intermittent shocks, if you break it down into its components, I think the US and the Americas broadly, will be less impacted by what’s happening globally.”
He added that Europe was in a difficult spot and would remain an area of concern as the chances of a recession have increased, but says Asia was looking relatively strong.
The Coats Global CEO says Sri Lanka is special for the industry and Coats because of its people.
“It is the human capital in this country that allows it to punch above its weight. When you meet people in the industry, there’s optimism, expertise, courage and specialisation based on a track record of delivery. There are industry giants that have originated from Sri Lanka.”
Sharma says the kind of garments manufactured locally were very complex and cannot be transported or made in Africa or some other country, adding that Sri Lanka has the skill, modern machinery and good management that is needed for delivering this complexity, in abundance.
The CEO says his wish to have more employees from Coats Sri Lanka taking on regional and global roles in Coats.

尽管演说被一位佩戴口罩的女性抗议者打断,但Peters仍然确认了两点:新西兰没有收到加入该协议的邀请;政府离做出决定“还有一条很长的路要走”。

C | Advertise with us 他说新西兰政府正在就是否加入奥库斯协议进行”信息收集讨论”,新西兰必须更好地了解与该协议进行技术合作的潜在机会,权衡经济和安全利益,才能决定是否符合国家利益。 Peters在国会新西兰国际事务研究所发表的这段演说被认为是联合政府的官方表态。 (图源:Getty) 奥库斯协议是由澳大利亚、英国和美国在2021年9月宣布成立的军事外交安全合作伙伴关系,其首要目的是由英美武装澳大利亚,帮助其在南太平洋建立一支核动力潜艇舰队。 外界多认为奥库斯协议的目的是为了对抗影响力不断上升的中国,而中国一直强烈批评奥库斯破坏地区和平与稳定。 奥库斯协议的第二支柱主要是分享先进的非核军事技术。美英澳三国现已提出接收其它国家加入第二支柱的可能性。

D | 被认为可能收到邀请的潜在合作伙伴包括日本、韩国、新西兰和加拿大。 Peters在演说中批评了工党在奥库斯协议上前恭后倨的态度转变。他说工党早在2021年10月也就是奥库斯协议“官宣”后不久就开始讨论第二支柱事宜。 “让我们明确一点,第二支柱的讨论是……之前由工党发起的,这就是为什么我们一直声称是在延续前工党政府发起的进程。” “部长们在2021年10月首次收到关于新西兰与奥库斯合作可能性的建议。

E | ” “2023年,经过近两年的仔细权衡,工党总理与外交部长和国防部长一起,批准官员与奥库斯合作伙伴开启第二支柱范围和架构的对话。堪培拉、伦敦和华盛顿的信息收集讨论并不是自发进行的。” “工党政府授权官员进行的这些活动,该选择与前总理Hipkins去年的声明一致:’我们身处在一个战略性地区’,”Peters说。 Peters强调新西兰的无核立场不变,并且构成任何参与的“关键先决条件”。

F | 工党一直称政府对奥库斯的官方措词已经从中立转变为支持,但Peters澄清了这一点。

G | 他说政府的“信息收集仍处于初期阶段,而评论员和反对者在第二支柱上的立场远远超前于政府”。 “批评者完全否定第二支柱,他们声称我们因为意识形态原因正在放弃独立外交政策。

H | ” 但Peters说这样的声音带有反美主义倾向,“独立对他们来说就只意味着对美国说不”。 (图源:NZ Herald) 这次演说中就出现了一位高举“要民主不要奥库斯”牌子的抗议者。 “我再说一次,请您坐下,对其他听众表现出一些尊重,”Peters在台上说。 “能帮我一个忙吗?可以离开房间吗?” 抗议者摇摇头,然后被保安护送离开。 “就像猫王唱的,’如果你想找麻烦,那么你来对地方了’,”目送抗议者离开后,Peters点评道。
