当地时间周六晚间，一场武装袭击扰乱了在华盛顿特区举办的白宫记者协会晚宴，总统唐纳德·特朗普未受受伤，全球各国领导人迅速对此类政治暴力行为予以谴责，并对特朗普的安全状况表示放心。
一名携带枪支和刀具的男子突袭华盛顿希尔顿酒店大堂，并冲向特朗普、议员、记者和外国政要聚集的宴会厅，引发特勤局特工开枪还击，宾客纷纷躲到桌子底下。事件发生后，各国领导人纷纷在X平台上发表回应。
这名嫌疑人后来被确认是来自加利福尼亚州托兰斯的31岁科尔·艾伦，已被逮捕，特朗普被迅速带离现场且未受伤。官员表示，该嫌疑人是晚宴举办地华盛顿希尔顿酒店的住客，并在现场被逮捕，预计将于周一出庭受审。
各国领导人在回应中既强调了对美国的声援，也表达了对日益严重的政治暴力的担忧。

欧洲各国领导人也表达了类似立场。英国首相基尔·斯塔默称自己对现场场景“感到震惊”，称必须“以最强烈的言辞”谴责此次袭击，尤其是因为袭击目标是一场备受瞩目的民主活动。

此次袭击是2024年以来针对特朗普的一系列安全威胁中的最新一起，预计将加剧外界对涉及总统的大型公开活动安保规程的审视。同时，这也可能重新引发关于美国境内政治暴力愈演愈烈的讨论。
当局表示，嫌疑人单独行动，目前尚未确定作案动机。联邦调查局和当地执法部门于周六晚间突袭了嫌疑人在托兰斯的住所。

World leaders condemn ‘unacceptable’ violence after armed attack disrupts WH Correspondents’ Dinner
Leaders from around the globe shared their concern over what happened and opposition to political violence

World leaders across the globe swiftly condemned political violence and expressed relief that President Donald Trump was unharmed after a chaotic armed attack Saturday night disrupted the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner in Washington, D.C.
Their responses poured in on X after a man armed with guns and knives stormed the lobby of the Washington Hilton and charged toward the ballroom, where Trump, lawmakers, journalists and foreign dignitaries were gathered, prompting Secret Service agents to open fire and guests to dive under tables.
The suspect — later identified as 31-year-old Cole Allen of Torrance, California — was taken into custody, and Trump was rushed offstage unharmed. Officials said the suspect was a guest at the Washington Hilton, where the dinner was being held, and was taken into custody at the scene. He is expected to appear in court on Monday.
In their reactions, world leaders emphasized both solidarity with the United States and concern over rising political violence.

French President Emmanuel Macron called the incident “unacceptable,” writing that “violence has no place in a democracy” while expressing “full support” for Trump.
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni echoed that sentiment, warning against political extremism.
“No political hatred can find space in our democracies,” she said, adding that democratic nations must not allow “fanaticism to poison the places of free debate and information.”

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said he was “relieved” Trump, the first lady and Vice President JD Vance were safe, stressing that violence “must be unequivocally condemned.”
Leaders across Europe struck a similar tone. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said he was “shocked by the scenes,” calling the attack one that must be “condemned in the strongest possible terms,” particularly given it targeted a high-profile democratic event.

UK Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper said she was “appalled,” adding that democracies must “stand together against political violence.”

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte framed the incident as a broader threat to democratic systems, calling it “an attack on our free and open societies” and reaffirming solidarity with the United States.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described the incident as an “attempted assassination,” though U.S. authorities have not publicly characterized it as such, saying he and his wife were “shocked” while praising U.S. security forces for their “swift and decisive action.” He also wished a speedy recovery to a police officer who was shot in a bullet-resistant vest during the confrontation.

From the Western Hemisphere, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said he was “relieved” all attendees were safe but called the episode a “disturbing event,” while Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum said simply, “Violence should never be the way.”
WORLD LEADERS SPLIT OVER MILITARY ACTION AS US-ISRAEL STRIKE IRAN IN COORDINATED OPERATION
Argentine President Javier Milei issued one of the strongest statements, condemning what he described as a “new assassination attempt,” and linking the attack to “violent rhetoric of the left all over the world.” His characterization has not been confirmed by U.S. officials.

Leaders from beyond the traditional Western alliance also weighed in. Venezuela’s acting president, Delcy Rodríguez, said her government “strongly condemns” the attack and emphasized that “violence is never an option,” while European Commission Vice President Kaja Kallas highlighted the symbolism of the venue, noting that “an event meant to honour a free press should never become a scene of fear.”

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese praised U.S. law enforcement and Secret Service agents for their “swift action” in containing the situation.

The attack marks the latest in a string of security threats against Trump since 2024 and is likely to intensify scrutiny over security protocols at major public events involving the president. It is also likely to renew conversations about rising political violence in the U.S.
Authorities say the suspect acted alone and have not yet identified a motive. FBI and local law enforcement officials descended on the suspect’s Torrance home Saturday night.
