纽约——在《贝尔法斯特协议》改变北爱尔兰局势近30年后，爱尔兰总理米歇尔·马丁表示，在唐纳德·特朗普总统表态支持爱尔兰统一后，美国有可能在未来推动爱尔兰统一的进程中发挥作用。
马丁所在的共和党（Fianna Fáil）支持爱尔兰统一。他表示，这项1998年具有里程碑意义的协议在很大程度上结束了北爱尔兰长达30年的宗派暴力冲突，即“麻烦时期”，该协议为决定北爱尔兰的宪法未来建立了和平机制，但他同时警告称，首先必须弥合北爱尔兰民族主义者和统一主义者群体之间的深刻分歧。
“我相信统一，我的政党也相信统一，但我们必须为此付出努力，”马丁在接受福克斯新闻数字频道的独家专访时表示。“我们必须在爱尔兰岛的不同传统群体之间构建和解。”
“美国对爱尔兰和平与冲突解决的成功至关重要，”马丁补充道。

马丁在纽约联合国大会期间接受了福克斯新闻数字频道的采访，他将当前的全球局势描述为一个全球性的“十字路口”：乌克兰战火纷飞，中东冲突不断，伊朗与霍尔木兹海峡问题的谈判正在进行中。
在整个采访过程中，他多次提到爱尔兰自身的冲突与和平经历，将其作为该国应对海外危机的指导方针，同时为爱尔兰长期以来的军事中立政策辩护，尽管爱尔兰对乌克兰的支持与日俱增。
爱尔兰统一的宪法问题在特朗普上月近期访问爱尔兰期间重新引起关注，当时特朗普表示他将“乐见”爱尔兰实现统一，并预测统一终将实现。
当被福克斯新闻数字频道问及，如果爱尔兰最终走向统一，华盛顿是否可以再次发挥作用时，马丁回答：“在一定程度上或许可以，有可能，是的。”
马丁的此番言论发表在加瓦希路最新对峙事件爆发于波塔当之前，该事件重新引发了北爱尔兰最激烈的游行争端之一，凸显了民族主义者与统一主义者之间的分歧依然尖锐。
游行委员会上月批准了奥兰治治下协会（Orange Order）一场有限制的游行，时隔28年首次在主要为民族主义者聚居的加瓦希路举行。居民和支持者封锁了路线，而警方因担心出现严重骚乱，未强行推进游行。
奥兰治治下协会是一个新教组织，其成员普遍支持北爱尔兰继续作为英国的一部分，而加瓦希路社区主要为天主教徒，他们中的许多人支持爱尔兰统一。
这场对峙随后升级至法庭和北爱尔兰议会斯托蒙特，各方仍在努力促成妥协方案。
根据《贝尔法斯特协议》，如果北爱尔兰多数民众似乎支持统一，即可举行全民公投。但马丁表示，需要开展更多工作来明确统一后的爱尔兰将是什么样子，并加强爱尔兰岛两岸的互动。

爱尔兰总理称爱尔兰“未被移民淹没”，合法移民与经济成功挂钩
乌克兰与寻求和平
但对马丁而言，北爱尔兰和平进程的教训远不止于爱尔兰岛。
“正因我们在北爱尔兰经历过冲突，我们认为自己可以为冲突解决路径做出贡献，”马丁说。
他表示，爱尔兰结束数十年暴力的经历，如今影响着该国应对俄罗斯对乌克兰的战争、中东冲突以及欧洲日益不确定的安全环境的方式。
“我们感觉俄罗斯在当前这个阶段并不真正感兴趣，”马丁在谈及结束乌克兰战争的努力时表示。
马丁前一日晚间会见了乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基，但他仍认为，华盛顿与莫斯科之间保持沟通渠道至关重要。

当被问及现实的和平解决方案最终是否需要乌克兰向俄罗斯割让领土时，马丁驳斥了这一前提。
“俄罗斯在四年的战争中都未能占领的领土，乌克兰不能割让，”马丁说。
但他表示，以现有战线实现停火可以作为谈判的起点。
“如果我们能先在现有战线实现停火，然后开启谈判，”马丁补充道，基辅需要得到保护，以防俄罗斯再次发动侵略。“乌克兰需要安全保障。”
马丁还指出，乌克兰加入欧盟的道路可能会提供额外一层安全保障，并表示欧洲与俄罗斯之间更广泛的安全架构最终必须在谈判中得到解决。
“在我们看来，任何人都无权进入另一个国家并夺取其领土，”马丁说。

爱尔兰的中立性究竟几何？
然而，爱尔兰对基辅的广泛支持在国内引发了一个更具争议的问题：一个军事中立的国家在支持战争一方的同时，能在多大程度上保持其中立性？
自2022年俄罗斯全面入侵乌克兰以来，爱尔兰已向乌克兰提供了超过7.54亿美元的人道主义援助、军事培训和其他非致命性支持，但并未提供致命性武器。
福克斯新闻数字频道就此询问马丁，这种程度的支持是否损害了爱尔兰的中立性。
“不，因为我们没有提供致命援助，我们没有提供军事武器，但我们提供了非致命性援助，比如训练等，还有对乌克兰的人道主义援助，”马丁说。
爱尔兰还接收了大量逃离战争的乌克兰人。马丁表示，最多时有超过12万人抵达爱尔兰，采访时约有8万人仍留在该国。
“这不是选边站，而是对战争做出人道主义回应，”马丁说。“其中许多人做出了贡献，许多人在经济中工作。”
爱尔兰的中立性也因其香农机场长期被美军使用而受到审查。
北约最高军事指挥官亚历克苏斯·格林基维奇将军在8月将香农机场描述为美国“非常重要的物流枢纽”，并表示取消美国的军事通行权可能会损害美伊关系。
该机场的角色长期以来一直遭到爱尔兰中立主义活动人士的抗议，他们认为允许美国军事人员和飞机通过民用机场过境，破坏了该国的中立地位。
尽管在乌克兰和中东冲突的处理方式上存在分歧，但马丁几乎用家人之间的关系来形容美伊关系。
“爱尔兰和美国之间有着非常牢固的纽带，”马丁说。
他指出了爱尔兰领导人长期以来在圣帕特里克节访问白宫的传统，以及他估计约有3000万人口的庞大爱尔兰裔侨民群体。
“这就是家人，有着血缘关系，”马丁说。
中东
马丁表示，爱尔兰的和平进程经验也影响了其对中东的政策，爱尔兰在中东已成为以色列最严厉的欧洲批评者之一。
他谴责了哈马斯10月7日的恐怖袭击，为以色列的安全权辩护，但同时认为以色列随后在加沙的军事行动“完全不成比例”。
“我们支持两国方案，”马丁说。“我们认为，以色列当然有权在安全的环境中存在，其人民需要得到安全保障。但同样，巴勒斯坦人也有权在自己的家园和平生活。”
马丁表示，爱尔兰强烈的反以色列立场部分源于其自身的历史，以及他所说的“对是非正义与公平的感知”。

欧洲的安全
爱尔兰目前担任欧盟理事会轮值主席国，这使马丁处于欧洲应对数十年来最大安全挑战的谈判中心。
“欧洲有了深刻的认识：我们必须付出更多努力，为欧洲提供更强的安全保障，尤其是因为俄乌战争，”马丁说。
他特别提到了波罗的海和北欧国家，这些国家的政府因对俄罗斯的担忧而增加了国防开支。
“许多国家对俄罗斯存在生存恐惧，”马丁说。
马丁表示，欧洲也在收紧移民政策，呼应了他在采访其他部分发表的言论，即爱尔兰的庇护申请数量有所下降，欧洲各国政府正在应对日益增加的政治压力。

对马丁而言，这些挑战——从乌克兰和中东到爱尔兰自身尚未解决的宪法未来——最终都回到了他认为本国从数十年冲突及随后的和平进程中汲取的教训。
“世界需要努力翻开新的一页，走向更和平的共存，”马丁说。

NEW YORK — Nearly three decades after the Good Friday Agreement transformed Northern Ireland, Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin said the United States could potentially play a role in a future push for a united Ireland following President Donald Trump’s backing for reunification.
Martin, whose Fianna Fáil party supports Irish unity, said the landmark 1998 agreement – which largely ended 30 years of sectarian violence in Northern Ireland known as “the Troubles” – created a peaceful mechanism for deciding Northern Ireland’s constitutional future, but cautioned that the deep divide between Northern Ireland’s nationalist and unionist communities must first be bridged.
“I believe in unity and my party believes in unity, but we have to work on it,” Martin told Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview. “We have to build reconciliation among the different traditions on the island of Ireland.”
“The U.S. were critical to the success of peace and conflict resolution in Ireland,” Martin added.

Martin spoke to Fox News Digital during the U.N. General Assembly in New York at what he described as a global “crossroad,” with war raging in Ukraine, conflict across the Middle East and negotiations underway over Iran and the Strait of Hormuz.
Throughout the interview, he repeatedly returned to Ireland’s own experience of conflict and peace as a guide to how the country approaches crises abroad, while defending the country’s long-standing policy of military neutrality despite its growing support for Ukraine.
The constitutional question of Irish unity gained renewed attention during Trump’s recent visit to Ireland last month, when the president said he would “love” to see Ireland unified and predicted it would eventually happen.
Asked during the Fox News Digital whether Washington could play a role again if Ireland eventually moves toward reunification, Martin replied: “To a degree maybe, potentially, yeah.”
Martin spoke before the latest confrontation over Garvaghy Road erupted in Portadown, reviving one of Northern Ireland’s most bitter marching disputes and underscoring how potent nationalist-unionist divisions remain.
The Parades Commission last month approved a limited Orange Order march along the mainly nationalist Garvaghy Road for the first time in 28 years. Residents and supporters blocked the route, while police declined to force the parade through amid fears of serious disorder.
The Orange Order is a Protestant organization whose members generally support Northern Ireland remaining part of the United Kingdom, while many residents of the mainly nationalist Garvaghy Road community, who are predominantly Catholic, favor a united Ireland.
The standoff has since spilled into the courts and Stormont, where parliament meets, as efforts to broker a compromise continue.
Under the Good Friday Agreement, a referendum can be called if it appears a majority in Northern Ireland would support reunification. But Martin said more work is needed to define what a united Ireland would look like and deepen engagement on both sides of the border.

IRISH PM SAYS IRELAND ‘NOT OVERRUN’ BY IMMIGRANTS, LEGAL MIGRATION TIED TO ECONOMIC SUCCESS
UKRAINE AND THE SEARCH FOR PEACE
For Martin, however, the lessons of Northern Ireland’s peace process extend far beyond the island.
“Because of our conflict in Northern Ireland, we feel we can make a contribution to that conflict resolution pathway,” Martin said.
He said Ireland’s experience ending decades of violence now shapes how it approaches Russia’s war in Ukraine, the conflict in the Middle East and Europe’s increasingly uncertain security environment.
“We don’t get a sense that Russia is really interested at this particular stage,” Martin said of efforts to end the war in Ukraine.
Martin, who had met Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy the previous evening, nevertheless argued that continued channels between Washington and Moscow were important.

Asked whether a realistic peace settlement would ultimately require Ukraine to surrender territory to Russia, Martin rejected the premise.
“Ukraine can’t cede territory that Russia hasn’t even conquered, despite four years of war,” Martin said.
But he said a ceasefire along existing battle lines could provide a starting point for negotiations.
“If we even could get a ceasefire on existing lines, and then negotiations to start,” Martin said, adding that Kyiv would need protections against renewed Russian aggression. “Ukraine needs security guarantees.”
Martin also pointed to Ukraine’s path toward European Union membership as potentially providing an additional layer of security and said the broader security architecture between Europe and Russia would ultimately have to be addressed in negotiations.
“From our perspective, no one has the right to go into another country and take its territory,” Martin said.

HOW NEUTRAL IS IRELAND?
Ireland’s extensive support for Kyiv, however, raises a more contentious question at home: how far can a militarily neutral country support one side in a war while maintaining that neutrality?
Ireland has committed more than $754 million in humanitarian assistance, military training and other non-lethal support to Ukraine since Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022 while stopping short of providing lethal weapons.
Fox News Digital asked Martin whether that level of support undermined Ireland’s neutrality.
“No, because we don’t give lethal aid, we haven’t given military weaponry, but we have given non-lethal assistance in terms of training and so on like that, and also humanitarian aid to Ukraine,” Martin said.
Ireland has also taken in large numbers of Ukrainians fleeing the war. Martin said more than 120,000 had arrived at one point, with roughly 80,000 remaining in the country at the time of the interview.
“That’s not taking sides, that’s taking a humanitarian response to a war,” Martin said. “And many are contributing, many are working in the economy.”
Ireland’s neutrality has also faced scrutiny over the long-standing use of Shannon Airport by the U.S. military.
NATO’s top military commander, Gen. Alexus Grynkewich, described Shannon in August as a “very important logistics hub” for the United States and said withdrawing American military access would probably damage U.S.-Irish relations.
The airport’s role has long drawn protests from Irish neutrality campaigners, who argue that allowing U.S. military personnel and aircraft to transit through a civilian airport undermines the country’s neutral status.
Despite differing approaches to conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, Martin described the U.S.-Ireland relationship in almost familial terms.
“There’s a very strong bond between Ireland and the United States,” Martin said.
He pointed to the long-standing tradition of Irish leaders visiting the White House on St. Patrick’s Day and the enormous Irish American diaspora, which he estimated at roughly 30 million people.
“It’s just family, there’s kinship ties,” Martin said.
MIDDLE EAST
Martin said Ireland’s peace-process experience also informs its approach to the Middle East, where Dublin has emerged as one of Israel’s strongest European critics.
He condemned Hamas’ Oct. 7 terrorist attack and defended Israel’s right to security while arguing that the subsequent Israeli military campaign in Gaza had been “absolutely disproportionate.”
“We believe in a two-state solution,” Martin said. “We believe that Israel, of course, has a right to exist in security and its people need to be guaranteed of security. But likewise, Palestinians should have a right to live in their homeland in a peaceful way.”
Martin said Ireland’s strongly anti-Israel position was shaped partly by its own history and what he described as a “sense of right and justice and fairness.”

EUROPE’S SECURITY
Ireland currently holds the rotating presidency of the Council of the European Union, placing Martin at the center of negotiations as Europe confronts its biggest security challenges in decades.
“There’s a big realization in Europe that we have to do more to provide greater security to Europe, particularly because of the Russian-Ukrainian war,” Martin said.
He pointed particularly to Baltic and Nordic countries, whose governments have increased defense spending amid fears about Russia.
“Many have an existential fear of Russia,” Martin said.
Martin said Europe was also tightening its approach to immigration, echoing comments he made elsewhere in the interview that asylum applications had fallen across Ireland and that governments across the continent were responding to mounting political pressure.

For Martin, those challenges — from Ukraine and the Middle East to Ireland’s own unfinished constitutional future —ultimately return to the lessons he believes his country learned through decades of conflict and the peace process that followed.
“The world needs to try and turn a page toward a more peaceful sort of coexistence,” Martin said.
