美国国务卿马可·卢比奥将于周三在希腊发表演讲,呼吁重振西方文明,并敦促盟友与美国一道抵制西方的衰落。
重振西方一直是卢比奥执掌国务院期间的核心议题。他时常抨击他所认为的西方文明赖以建立的价值观正在遭到侵蚀。
周三的演讲将延续这一主题。演讲将于美国东部时间上午11:30、希腊当地时间下午6:30开始,地点设在雅典卫城的古代遗址中。
“国务卿卢比奥将在西方文明的发源地发表演讲,呼吁美国人和欧洲人共同携手,大力重振西方精神——这份精神遗产从雅典和罗马延伸至基督教世界,再到美利坚合众国的建立,”美国国务院全球公共事务助理国务卿迪伦·约翰逊告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。

“在卫城的背景下,卢比奥国务卿将追溯古希腊的历史,这里是后来定义西方特质的所有品质的首次完整体现:好奇心、勇气、雄心,以及永不停歇的探索和发现未知的精神,”约翰逊补充道。
“他将警告,我们的文明已经遗忘了太多这些 essential 品质,并敦促西方各国盟友与美国一道抵制衰落,捍卫我们共同的遗产,共同应对大国竞争的新时代。”
在访问期间,卢比奥宣布了美国与希腊之间的新反恐伙伴关系。
他在周三强调了希腊的战略重要性,称其为“动荡世界中的稳定之源”。
“当你看到世界正经历这些 destabilizing 事件时,你会意识到与希腊的联盟对美国有多重要,”卢比奥说。“它是动荡世界中的稳定之源。”

今年2月在德国慕尼黑安全会议上,卢比奥发表了相关主题的演讲,赢得了欧洲领导人的起立鼓掌,并在网上获得了数百万的观看量。一名热门X平台用户称其为“几十年来国务卿发表的最伟大演讲之一”。
许多人认为,这场演讲提升了卢比奥2028年总统竞选的胜算。
在美国建国250周年之际,我们最精彩的篇章仍在前方
卢比奥回顾了二战结束前的五个世纪,当时西方将势力扩张至全球,建立了“庞大的帝国”。但他表示,战后欧洲满目疮痍,欧洲境内的“无神论共产主义革命”让人们相信西方的主导地位已永久终结。
“在那样的背景下,如同如今一样,许多人开始认为西方的主导时代已经结束,我们的未来注定只能是过去的微弱而无力的回声。但我们的前辈们意识到,衰落是一种选择,而他们拒绝做出这种选择,”他说。

卢比奥敦促欧洲领导人重振这种精神。
“这就是为什么我们不希望盟友被愧疚和羞耻束缚,”他继续说道。“我们希望盟友为我们的文化和遗产感到自豪,明白我们同属这一伟大而高尚的文明,并愿意与我们一道捍卫它。”

“这也是为什么我们不希望盟友为破碎的现状找借口,而是正视解决问题的必要举措。因为美国无意成为西方可控衰落的彬彬有礼、井然有序的守护者。我们不寻求分离,而是要重拾旧日友谊,重振人类历史上最伟大的文明。”

Rubio to deliver urgent plea to save Western civilization during speech in its birthplace

Secretary of State Marco Rubio will deliver a speech in Greece on Wednesday calling for the renewal of Western civilization and urging allies to join the United States in rejecting the decline of the West.
The renewal of the West has been a theme during Rubio’s tenure at the helm of the State Department. He has often railed against what he views as an erosion of the values upon which Western civilization was built.
And his speech Wednesday will build on that. The remarks will commence at 11:30 a.m. ET, 6:30 p.m. local time in Greece, and is set in the ancient ruins of the citadel Acropolis.
“Secretary Rubio will deliver an address from the birthplace of Western civilization, where he will call upon Americans and Europeans alike to join together in a great renewal of the Western spirit – an inheritance stretching from Athens and Rome to Christendom to the founding of the American Republic,” Dylan Johnson, the State Department’s assistant secretary for global public affairs, told Fox News Digital.

TRUMP’S COUNTERTERRORISM STRATEGY SCORES BIG WINS AGAINST GLOBAL TERROR THREATS
“Against the backdrop of the Acropolis, Secretary Rubio will look to the history of ancient Greece as the first full expression of the qualities that would come to define the West: curiosity, courage, ambition, and a restless spirit of exploration and discovery of the unknown,” Johnson added.
“He will warn that too much of our civilization has forgotten these essential qualities and urge our allies across the West to join the United States in rejecting decline, defending our shared heritage, and confronting a new era of great-power competition together.”
During his visit, Rubio announced a new counterterrorism partnership between the U.S. and Greece.
He emphasized the strategic importance of Greece on Wednesday, calling it a “source of stability in an unstable world.”
“As you see a world that faces these destabilizing events, you recognize how important this alliance with Greece is to the United States,” Rubio said. “It is a source of stability in an unstable world.”

At the Munich Security Conference in Germany in February, Rubio delivered a speech on the topic that earned him a standing ovation from European leaders, and racked up millions of views online. One popular X user described it as “one of the greatest” speeches by a Secretary of State in decades.
Many others insisted the speech upped Rubio’s potential 2028 presidential chances.
AS AMERICA MARKS 250 YEARS, OUR GREATEST CHAPTERS ARE STILL AHEAD OF US
Rubio described the five centuries before the end of World War II, a time when the West had expanded across the globe, building “vast empires.” But, he said, after the war, Europe was in ruins, and “godless communist revolutions” in Europe caused people to believe that the West’s dominance was forever finished.
“Against that backdrop, then, as now, many came to believe that the West’s age of dominance had come to an end, and that our future was destined to be a faint and feeble echo of our past. But together, our predecessors recognized that decline was a choice, and it was a choice they refused to make,” he said.

Rubio urged the European leaders to reinvigorate that spirit.
“This is why we do not want out allies to be shackled by guilt and shame,” he continued. “We want allies that are proud of our culture and our heritage, and understand that we are heirs to the same great and noble civilization and who together with us, are willing and able to defend it.”

“And this is why we don’t want allies to rationalize the broken status quo, rather than what is necessary to reckon with what is necessary to fix it. For we in America have no interest in being polite and orderly caretakers of the West’s managed decline. We do not seek to separate, but to revitalize an old friendship and renew the greatest civilization in human history.”
