后卡扎菲的利比亚非洲投资何去何从?
肯尼亚的邻国乌干达至今还没有承认利比亚反叛力量。
Ugandan government spokesperson Fred Opolot explains that decision.
乌干达政府发言人欧波洛特解释说:
“First and foremost, the government of Uganda has really continuosly reiterated that the Uganda's foreign policy is built on the principles of relations with states and not with individuals," he said. "And indeed, Uganda has maintained cordial relations with Libya and shall continue.”
“首先,也是最重要的是,乌干达政府一直重申,乌干达的外交政策建立在跟国家的关系,而不是跟个人的关系。的确,乌干达已经维持了跟利比亚的真诚关系,将来也会如此。”
Libya has invested $375 million in Uganda through the multi-billion dollar Libyan Africa Investment Portfolio. And Libyan companies have taken shares in the Ugandan telecom and banking sectors.
利比亚通过有几十亿美元资产的利比亚非洲投资公司在乌干达投资了3亿7千5百万美元。利比亚的公司拥有乌干达的电信和银行业股份。
Given a long and lucrative history with Libya, Uganda's reluctance to recognize the NTC is not unexpected.
乌干达长期以来从与利比亚的商业往来中获得丰厚利润,因此乌干达不愿承认全国过渡委员会并不令人感到意外。
Uganda's position is also in line with the African Union, which has been waiting for the prospective Libyan government to take shape before acknowledging its authority.
在利比亚问题上,非洲联盟采取了跟乌干达相同的立场。非洲联盟在等待利比亚新政府的形成,然后才承认新政府。
But Pham of the Atlantic Council says that policy may hurt future relations with Libya's new leadership.
但是美国智库大西洋理事会的彼得.法姆认为,这样的政策可能伤害到未来与利比亚新领导层的关系。
“There's going to be a lot of resentment to Africa, both because of money that's been spent there and secondly because the African Union and many African leaders, with a few notable exceptions, stood by Gadhafi instead of with the Libyan people,” said Pham.
法姆说:“今后利比亚对非洲会有很大的愤恨情绪,因为钱都花在那里了,其次是,除了少数非洲领导人以外,非洲联盟和大部分非洲领导人都支持卡扎菲,而不是支持利比亚人民。”
Pham says that it is also possible Libya will focus its foreign policy more on the Arab League, which supported the NATO air campaign backing rebel fighters.
法姆说,利比亚也有可能把外交政策重心放在阿拉伯联盟上。阿拉伯联盟支持北约为帮助反叛力量所进行的空袭行动。
Whatever the outcome of the war, it seems unlikely that the new Libyan leaders will envision as strong a kinship with the continent as a man who once declared himself Africa's "king of kings."
不论战争结果如何,利比亚新领导层看来不太可能会对非洲大陆有强烈的归属感,因为卡扎菲曾经扬言,他是非洲的“王中之王”。
