美国总统唐纳德·特朗普当地时间周五驳斥了有关亚伯拉罕·林肯号航母上军人家属担忧舰上生活条件的说法。该航母已部署近九个月,支援中东地区行动。

特朗普反而称,这艘船的长时间部署实际上还不够长。

当安德鲁斯联合基地的记者被问及舰上人员家属对亲属的心理健康和生活条件表示担忧时,特朗普回答:“不,他们没有(担忧)。”

他表示,林肯号很快将离开该地区,将由“另一艘非常相似的舰艇”接替。

但当被问及林肯号在海上停留的八个半月是否过长时,特朗普称事实恰恰相反。

“不,不,不。远远不够,”他说完便径直转身登上空军一号。

多名民主党议员呼吁做出回应,此前林肯号上的水手家属提出担忧,称在这艘航母创下纪录的部署期间,舰上生活条件不断恶化,心理健康状况愈发糟糕。

据参议员理查德·布卢门撒尔透露,自去年11月林肯号离开圣迭戈母港以来,这艘航母已部署超过250天。该舰此前被调往中东,支援美国对伊朗的作战行动,目前战事已进入第六个月。舰上搭载约5000名水手和海军陆战队员,已有200多天未进行港口停靠,创下了现代海上连续部署天数的纪录。

一名美国官员周四对CNN表示,已于8月5日完成越南港口访问的乔治·华盛顿号航母打击群,目前正前往中东接替林肯号。该官员称,此次换防此前已计划妥当。目前尚不清楚华盛顿号何时抵达。

周四,国防部长皮特·赫格斯瑟在中美洲之行中接受记者采访时表示,林肯号上的生活条件被“完全歪曲”,但他未具体说明对相关报道的不满之处。

“我们确保每一艘舰艇、每一名船员、每一位舰长在任何时候都能获得我们所能提供的一切物资,”他说,“有些部署时长确实比其他部署更长,我比任何人都更尊重和感激这些水手。他们在公海严苛的环境中,靠港次数极少,却完成了任务,这太了不起了。”

Trump says USS Lincoln’s deployment was ‘not nearly long enough’

President Donald Trump on Friday dismissed claims that families of service members aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln have concerns about conditions aboard the aircraft carrier, which has been deployed for nearly nine months supporting operations in the Middle East.

Instead, Trump claimed the ship’s lengthy deployment had in fact not been long enough.

“No, they’re not,” Trump said when asked by reporters at Joint Base Andrews about relatives of those aboard the ship expressing worry about mental health and living conditions for their relatives.

He said the Lincoln was moving out of the region soon, and would be replaced by “another, very similar, ship.”

But asked whether the Lincoln’s eight-and-a-half months at sea was too long, Trump claimed the opposite was true.

“No, no, no. Not nearly long enough,” he said before turning abruptly to board Air Force One.

Several Democratic lawmakers are calling for answers after concerns were raised by families of sailors aboard the Lincoln about the deteriorating living conditions and worsening mental health during the ship’s record-breaking deployment.

Since the Lincoln left its home port of San Diego last November, the aircraft carrier has been deployed for more than 250 days after being redirected to the Middle East to support US operations in the war with Iran, now entering its sixth month. With roughly 5,000 sailors and Marines aboard, it has not made a port call in more than 200 days, setting a modern-day record for consecutive days at sea, according to Sen. Richard Blumenthal.

The USS George Washington carrier group, which finished a port visit in Vietnam on August 5, is currently headed to the Middle East to replace the Lincoln, a US official told CNN on Thursday. The official said that the swap had been previously planned. It was not immediately clear when the Washington would arrive.

On Thursday, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said that conditions on the Lincoln had been “completely misrepresented” while talking to reporters on a trip to Central America, though he did not specify his concerns with the reporting.

“We make sure every ship, every crew, every captain has everything we can provide them at every single moment,” he said. “Some deployments are longer than others, and ⁠I have more respect and gratitude for those sailors than anybody. What they do in those high seas in those austere conditions with less port calls — it’s incredible.”
