8月27日(路透社)——联合国秘书长安东尼奥·古特雷斯周四表示,他预计美国很快将缴纳其拖欠联合国预算的数亿美元摊款。

路透社上周报道称,特朗普政府已向美国国会通报了其计划支付7.25亿美元联合国会费的意向。当被问及这笔款项何时到账时,古特雷斯告诉记者,根据联合国收到的消息,“这笔款项很快就会到账”。

美国国务院在8月4日的信函中表示,将为联合国经常预算拨付总计7.25亿美元资金。

这笔7.25亿美元的款项不到联合国所称美国拖欠该国际组织的逾50亿美元总额的15%,尽管华盛顿方面辩称拖欠总额要低得多。

今年5月,联合国称华盛顿方面的经常预算欠款为20.4亿美元。

古特雷斯今年曾警告称,由于成员国拖欠会费(其中大部分来自美国),联合国面临“迫在眉睫的财政崩溃”,该全球机构已进行了大规模预算削减。

美国总统唐纳德·特朗普政府此前批评联合国未能发挥其潜力,并大幅削减了对多个联合国机构的拨款。一名美国官员上周告诉路透社,任何付款都将取决于联合国持续推进改革,并补充称截至周五美国尚未划转任何资金。

美国驻联合国代表团没有立即回应就古特雷斯最新表态置评的请求。

Aug 27 (Reuters) – United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said on Thursday he expects a new contribution of ​hundreds of millions of dollars the United States owes ‌to the U.N. budget very soon.

Reuters reported last week that the Trump administration has informed the U.S. Congress of its intention to pay $725 million of ​dues it owes to the U.N. Asked when that ​payment was expected, Guterres told reporters that according to ⁠information received by the U.N., “this will be very soon.”

The State ​Department said in its August 4 letter it was obligating a ​total of $725 million for the U.N.’s regular budget.

The $725 million is less than 15% of the more than $5 billion the U.N. says the United States owes ​to the world body, although Washington argues the total figure ​is much lower.

In May, the U.N. said Washington owed $2.04 billion for the ‌regular ⁠budget.

Guterres warned this year that the U.N. faced “imminent financial collapse” due to unpaid contributions from member states, most of which are owed by the United States, and the global body has conducted ​large budget cuts.

The ​administration of ⁠U.S. President Donald Trump has criticized the U.N. for not living up to its potential and slashed ​funding to many U.N. agencies. A U.S. official ​told Reuters ⁠last week that any payments will be contingent on continued U.N. reforms and added that the U.S. had not transferred any funds ⁠as ​of Friday.

The U.S. mission to the ​United Nations did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Guterres’ latest ​remark.
