“Scary” and “reckless” was the verdict of one European diplomat about the discussion on the Signal messaging app about strikes on Houthi rebels. Neil Melvin, a security expert at defense think tank the Royal United Services Institute, called it “pretty shocking.”
“It’s some of the most high-ranking U.S. officials seeming to display a complete disregard for the normal security protocols,” he said.
某欧洲外交官用"可怕"和"鲁莽"评价此次通过Signal加密通讯软讨论打击胡塞武装的泄密事件。国防智库皇家联合服务研究所（译者注：英国历史最悠久的独立防务智库）安全专家Neil Melvin直指此事"令人震惊至极"。
他说：“这是一些美国高级官员似乎完全不顾正常的安保协议。”

Beyond the security concerns raised by the leaked chat, U.S. officials addressed the country’s trans-Atlantic allies with disdain as Vice President JD Vance complained about “bailing out” Europe and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth slammed “pathetic” European “freeloading.”
除安全隐忧外，美国官员对跨大西洋盟友的轻蔑态度更引发震动。副总统万斯抱怨"又要为欧洲买单"，国防部长Pete Hegseth则抨击欧洲“可悲的”“搭便车”行为。

The criticism is another blow to a long-standing relationship already strained by President Donald Trump’s blunt “America First” approach and disregard for friendly nations.
这些批评言论给本已因特朗普"美国优先"政策和对友好国家的忽视而受损的同盟关系再添新伤。

Britain could be particularly exposed by U.S. security breaches. Its intelligence network is entwined with the U.S. in the Five Eyes alliance, and the countries’ militaries work more closely than those of almost any other nations.
英国可能特别容易受到美国安全漏洞的影响。其情报网络与美国在“五眼联盟”中交织在一起，两国的军事合作比几乎任何其他国家都更加紧密。

Trump has gone much further than his predecessors in upending the decades-old security arrangements. He has long contended the U.S. needs to completely rethink its relationship with the rest of the world, saying other countries have been “taking advantage” of the nation’s military might by not paying enough for their own defense.
特朗普在颠覆几十年的安全安排上走得比他的前任更远。他长期主张美国需要彻底重新思考与世界其他国家的关系，称其他国家通过不为自己的防务支付足够的费用，是正在“利用”美国的军事力量。

It's not ACCIDENTLY LEAKED... they knowingly knew they were using a private group chat to communicate their plans.
There's no accident here... they got caught doing something they weren't' supposed to.
这不是“不小心泄露”……他们明明知道在用私人聊天群组密谋计划，却故意为之。
这里没有意外……他们只是被当场抓住了本不该做的事。
