梵蒂岡應對新冠疫情委員會:更多醫療經費,減少武備開支

WUHAN, CHINA - FEBRUARY 13 2020: Two medical staff work in the negative-pressure isolation ward in Jinyintan Hospital, designated for critical COVID-19 patients, in Wuhan in central China's Hubei province Thursday, Feb. 13, 2020. The city reported 13,436 new cases of COVID-19 Feb. 12, a big jump after the city combed communities for patients and expanded the capacity to take them in.- PHOTOGRAPH BY Feature China / Barcroft Media (Photo credit should read Feature China/Barcroft Media via Getty Images)

梵蒂岡應對新冠疫情委員會7月7日召開記者會,提到在2019年軍備投資達到1.9萬億美元。

圖爾克森樞機在發言中指出,需要“使團結互助全球化”;斯梅里利修女則表示,新冠疫情揭示了“在許多醫療系統的核心為醫治傳染病提供的經費不足”。

(梵蒂岡新聞網)軍備開支應能轉換為援助和用於醫療上的經費,以此遏制新冠病毒傳染病造成的影響。梵蒂岡應對新冠疫情委員會在7月7日召開的記者會上提出了上述要求。記者會的主題為“在新冠疫情時期準備未來,建設和平”,聖座促進人類整體發展部部長兼該委員會主席圖爾克森(Peter Turkson)樞機,以及委員會經濟專責小組協調人斯梅里利(Alessandra Smerilli)修女在會上發言。

圖爾克森樞機指出,2019年在全球的軍備開支為1.9萬億美元,是世界衛生組織預算的300倍。樞機認為,需要讓團結互助全球化,因為儘管存在新冠疫情的危機,用在軍備上的開支卻仍在繼續。他說:“今天用於軍備上的費用前所未有,包括最龐大的核現代化計劃在内,而病人、窮人、邊緣人士和衝突的受害者則受當前危機的打擊最大。到目前為止,如醫療、社會-經濟和生態這些相互關聯的危機,不僅擴大了貧富之間的差距,而且也加大了和平、繁榮及環境正義地區與衝突、貧困及生態遭破壞地區之間的距離。沒有和平就無法得到治癒。”

因此,圖爾克森樞機認為,“減少衝突是減少不正義和不平等的唯一可行路徑。武裝暴力、衝突和貧窮實際上是在一個循環中聯繫在一起的,這個循環阻礙和平、助長侵犯人權並阻止發展”。樞機讚賞聯合國安理會最近通過的全面停火議案具有積極意義,170個國家贊成聯合國讓武器停止囂張的呼籲也具有建設性。他最後表示,“在危機時期的團結互助是和平的新名稱”。

斯梅里利修女在記者會上指出,需要加强醫療系統,同時使生產武器的企業轉產。“在應對傳染病方面,我們需要受到保護並在預防工作上投資。新冠疫情揭示,許多醫療系統為醫治傳染病提供的經費不足。教宗方濟各要求我們拿出具有創意的方案。於是,我們捫心自問:世人是否可以不進行武備競賽,而是將競爭放在糧食和健康安全,以及就業上呢?”

斯梅里利修女同時問道,“各國國民此刻要求什麽?他們需要的是一個軍事强國,還是一個在公益上投資的國家?”修女最後提到,在意大利疫情的最初階段,一些原本生產武器的企業便開始生產肺呼吸機,這種情況為何不能長期持續下去呢?這些都是值得眾人深思的問題。- Vatican News
