特朗普簽署行政令 美國版長城計劃正式上線
特朗普25日簽署行政命令，下令加強移民管控，在美墨邊境修建隔離牆。特朗普曾在競選中許諾，一旦當選總統，將在美國和墨西哥邊境修建隔離牆，並且費用須由墨方承擔。不過目前來看，美墨隔離牆終究還得由美國人“自掏腰包”。
Donald Trump has signed an executive order calling for a "large physical barrier" between the US and Mexico - the order will jump-start the process of building the wall, which was one of the President's primary campaign promises.
特朗普已經簽署一項行政命令，要求在美國和墨西哥之間修建一座“巨型物理屏障”。該命令將啓動造牆工程，這是他的主要競選承諾之一。
"So badly needed. You folks know how badly needed it is as a help... I believe the steps we will take, starting right now, will improve the safety of both of our countries," Mr Trump said at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). "A nation without borders is not a nation. Beginning today, the United States gets back control of its borders - gets back its borders."
特朗普在國土安全部表示：“我們迫切需要一堵牆，你們都知道自己是多麼需要它的幫助……我相信從現在開始，我們即將採取的措施將改善兩國的安全狀況。沒有邊境的國家不算是一個國家。從今天開始，美國將重新擁有並控制自己的邊境。”
In addition to the wall, Mr Trump signed an action to strip federal funding from "sanctuary cities", that do not prosecute undocumented immigrants. He has mobilised on most of his controversial campaign promises - including directives against the Affordable Care Act, a greenlight to contentious oil pipelines, withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific trade agreement, and the renewal of the "Global Gag Rule", which prevents US funding for global family planning NGOs that are linked to abortion.
除了造牆，特朗普另外簽署的一項命令要求撤銷對“移民庇護城市”的聯邦資助，在那些地方非法移民不會被起訴。特朗普還開始兌現其最具爭議的競選承諾——包括關於《可支付醫療法》的指令、給受到爭議的石油管道開綠燈、退出《跨太平洋貿易協定》以及恢復反墮胎禁令，這一政策禁止美國向與墮胎相關的國際非政府組織提供資金支持。
He is also expected to take actions this week to limit legal immigration - including more rigorous restrictions to refugee acceptance and blocking the issuance of visas to people from Muslim-majority countries in the Middle East and North Africa.
特朗普本週還有可能採取行動限制合法移民——包括限制接收難民並禁止向中東北非地區穆斯林人口占多數的國家的人們發放簽證。
"Big day planned on national security tomorrow," Mr Trump tweeted on Tuesday night. "Among many other things, we will build the wall."
特朗普24日晚發推特稱：“明天將是有關國家安全的大日子，最主要的是，我們將建起這堵牆！”
"As soon as we can, as soon as we can physically do it," he told ABC News. "I would say in months, yeah. I would say in months - certainly planning is starting immediately."
特朗普對ABC News表示：“我們會盡快執行這一計劃。我認爲幾個月內吧，對，幾個月。當然我們已經立即開始規劃了。”
Mr Trump added that US taxpayers will fund the wall, but claimed that they will be "reimbursed" by Mexico. He did not explain how. A Mexican official said the President Enrique Pena Nieto was considering cancelling his meeting with Trump at the White House next week following the order.
特朗普表示，美國納稅人將出資修牆，但是他稱墨西哥將來會“償還”他們。他沒有解釋如何償還。一位墨西哥官員表示，因爲這項命令，墨西哥總統恩裏克•培尼亞•涅託正在考慮取消與特朗普下週在白宮的會面。
Mr Trump has previously estimated the wall would cost $8bn although some experts have said it could twice that amount.
此前，特朗普估算造牆費用爲80億美元，不過有些專家認爲實際花費將是其兩倍。
"All it is, is we'll be reimbursed at a later date from whatever transaction we make from Mexico," he said.
特朗普稱：“我們將來一定會以某種形式從墨西哥那裏得到補償。”
Immigrant rights campaigner and director of the Southern Border Communities Coalition, Christian Ramirez, rebuked the border wall as "political theatre at the expense of civil liberties".
移民權利活動家兼南部邊境地區聯盟主席克里斯蒂安•拉米雷斯斥責美墨高牆是一場“以公民自由爲代價的政治秀”。
"It is not national security policy. Border communities are among the safest in the nation and patrolling them with tens of thousands of heavily armed, poorly trained, unaccountable agents puts lives at risks," Mr Ramirez added. "This will turn these communities into de facto military zones."
“這並非一項國家安全政策。邊境地區是全國最安全的地區之一，讓上萬全副武裝、缺乏訓練、無法負責的巡邏人員在此巡邏會威脅到人們的人身安全。這將使這些地區變成事實上的軍事區。”
Despite Mr Trump's countless claims that undocumented immigrants are flooding into the US from Mexico, there is only evidence to the contrary.
儘管特朗普數次表示，非法移民正從墨西哥涌入美國，但是證據卻與此相反。
According to Pew Research data, migration flows from Mexico have been negative since 2008, indicating that Mexicans are leaving the US rather than entering.
根據皮尤研究中心的數據顯示，自2008年以來，來自墨西哥的移民爲負數，這意味着墨西哥人正在撤離美國而不是進入美國。
