联合国电—— 捷克共和国外长彼得尔·马辛卡在纽约联合国总部接受福克斯新闻数字频道独家采访时表示,捷克共和国准备协助保障霍尔木兹海峡的航行自由,并在安全、北约和以色列问题上与特朗普政府保持密切协调。
马辛卡在联合国安理会相关会议期间称,在与伊朗紧张局势升级之际,布拉格已开始讨论提供专门能力,以保障这条具有战略意义的重要航道安全。
“我们已准备好为航道通行和霍尔木兹海峡的贸易提供协助,”马辛卡说。
“我们是最早准备提供协助的国家之一……我们地处欧洲中部,没有海军,”他解释道,“但我们拥有一些独特的被动监视能力。”

马辛卡警告称,伊朗通过四大主要“战争工具”构成全球威胁:核扩散、无人机和弹道导弹、国际恐怖主义,以及对霍尔木兹海峡的威胁。
“他们的核军事计划必须被制止,”他说,“这是一项全球性风险和全球威胁。”
此番表态正值特朗普政府加大对欧洲盟友施压,要求它们在伊朗与霍尔木兹海峡相关的威胁背景下,在保护国际航运航线方面承担更大角色。霍尔木兹海峡是全球最重要的石油运输咽喉要道之一,全球约五分之一的石油消费量需通过这条连接波斯湾和阿拉伯海的狭窄水道。
周五在瑞典与各国外长会晤后,美国国务卿马可·鲁比奥质疑在盟国境内设立美军基地的价值,这些盟国后来会在战时限制美军行动。
“我一直以来的观点之一是,该地区的这些基地为我们提供了其他情况下无法获得的后勤选择,”鲁比奥对记者表示,“当冲突期间其中一些基地无法使用时,你就会质疑这些基地的价值是否依然存在。”
唐纳德·特朗普总统也曾尖锐批评北约盟友不愿参与与伊朗冲突相关的军事行动以及保障霍尔木兹海峡安全。
根据2026年4月1日英国《每日电讯报》的采访,特朗普称盟友未加入美国对伊朗的行动后,他“正在认真考虑”让美国退出北约,并将该联盟称为“纸老虎”。

捷克共和国自1999年起成为北约成员国,已达到北约将国内生产总值2%用于国防的基准,并支持在俄罗斯入侵乌克兰的背景下,欧洲提高军事战备水平的呼吁。
马辛卡强烈为特朗普政府呼吁欧洲增加国防开支、减少对美国长期安全保障依赖的举措辩护。
“我们应该做好自己的功课,加强自身国防力量,”他说,认为欧洲在必要的军事投资上拖延了太久。
他还将欧洲国防开支面临的挑战与欧盟的《绿色协议》政策——该集团旨在减少碳排放的全面气候议程——联系起来,称这些政策具有意识形态色彩且在财政上具有破坏性。
“如果我们摆脱这种‘绿色疯狂警报主义’,我们就有足够的资金来加强国防,”他说。
这位捷克外长还表达了对特朗普及其政府异常直接的支持,称赞特朗普当选后全球出现了一场普遍的“常识回归”。
“我们是以色列的朋友,也是美国的朋友,”马辛卡说,“作为一名政客,我尤其支持本届美国政府的意识形态。”
马辛卡还提及2026年初在慕尼黑安全会议上与前国务卿希拉里·克林顿的交锋,当时他批评欧洲的自由派政治建制派,并为重塑欧洲和美国部分地区的民粹主义浪潮辩护。

马辛卡将布拉格对乌克兰的坚定支持与1968年苏联领导的入侵捷克斯洛伐克事件联系起来,当时数十万华约军队占领该国长达二十多年。
他表示,这段历史经历至今仍影响着捷克公众的舆论和对基辅的支持。
“捷克社会对乌克兰抱有强烈的团结之情,”马辛卡说,将这场战争描述为强大的俄罗斯军队与得到西方支持的乌克兰军队之间的“对称战争”。
马辛卡强调了布拉格在捷克倡议的弹药供应计划中的主导作用,该计划通过国际捐助活动收集炮弹,供应给乌克兰。
他回忆起2026年初对基辅的访问,称他从乌克兰军方官员那里获得了战场弹药消耗的情报简报。

马辛卡表示,仅在2026年,捷克的这项倡议就交付了超过50万发炮弹,有助于在可能的和平谈判前稳定战场局势。
马辛卡认为,维持稳定的前线对于有意义的谈判至关重要,并警告称战场战线的变动只会加剧双方的要求。

随着华盛顿越来越多地将注意力转向中东,马辛卡还表示,欧洲必须在未来的乌克兰谈判中开始承担更大的外交角色。
“美国正忙于中东事务,”他说,“欧洲应该觉醒,争取在谈判桌上占有一席之地。”

EXCLUSIVE: Czech Republic’s foreign minister warns Iran using Strait of Hormuz as ‘war tool’

UNITED NATIONS — The Czech Republic is prepared to help protect freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz and is aligning closely with the Trump administration on security, NATO and Israel, Czech Foreign Minister Petr Macinka told Fox News Digital during an exclusive interview at the United Nations in New York.
Prague already had begun discussions about contributing specialized capabilities to help secure the strategically vital waterway amid growing tensions with Iran, Macinka said while speaking at Security Council-related meetings at the U.N.
“We are ready to contribute to freedom of passage and the Hormuz trade,” Macinka said.
“We were among the first countries that were ready to contribute … We have no navy, as we are in the middle of Europe,” he explained, “But we have some unique passive surveillance capabilities.”
TRUMP SEEKS WARSHIPS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES TO HELP SECURE STRAIT OF HORMUZ

Macinka warned that Iran posed a global threat through what he described as four main “war tools”: nuclear proliferation, drones and ballistic missiles, international terrorism and threats to the Strait of Hormuz.
“Their nuclear military program must be stopped,” he said. “It’s a global risk and global threat.”
The comments come as the Trump administration has increased pressure on European allies to take a larger role in protecting international shipping routes amid Iranian threats tied to the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most critical oil transit choke points. Roughly one-fifth of global oil consumption passes through the narrow waterway connecting the Persian Gulf to the Arabian Sea.
Speaking after a meeting with foreign ministers in Sweden Friday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio questioned the value of hosting U.S. military bases in allied countries that later restrict American military operations during wartime.
“One of the arguments I always made was that these bases in the region provided us with logistical options that we wouldn’t otherwise have,” Rubio told reporters. “And when some of those bases are denied to you during a conflict that we’re involved in, then you question whether that value is still there.”
President Donald Trump also has sharply criticized NATO allies over a reluctance to participate in military operations tied to the Iran conflict and securing the Strait of Hormuz.
Trump said he was “strongly considering” pulling the United States out of NATO after allies failed to join the U.S. campaign against Iran, according to an April 1 interview with Britain’s Daily Telegraph, calling the alliance a “paper tiger.”

The Czech Republic, a NATO member since 1999, reached NATO’s benchmark of spending 2% of GDP on defense and has supported calls for Europe to increase military readiness amid Russia’s war in Ukraine.
Macinka strongly defended the administration’s calls for Europe to increase defense spending and reduce dependence on Washington for long-term security guarantees.
“We should do our homework and build our defense to become stronger,” he said, arguing that Europe had delayed necessary military investments for too long.
He also tied Europe’s defense spending challenges to the European Union’s Green Deal policies, the bloc’s sweeping climate agenda aimed at reducing carbon emissions, calling them ideological and financially destructive.
“If we get rid of this green, crazy alarmism, then we have enough money to build our defense,” he said.
The Czech foreign minister also voiced unusually direct support for Trump and his administration, praising what he described as a global “common sense” shift following Trump’s election victory.
“We are friends of Israel, and we are friends of America,” Macinka said. “Especially me as a politician, I’m a friend of the ideology of the current American administration.”
Macinka also referenced a clash earlier in 2026 with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at the Munich Security Conference, where he criticized Europe’s liberal political establishment and defended the populist wave reshaping parts of Europe and the United States.

Macinka linked Prague’s strong support for Ukraine to the Soviet-led invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968, when hundreds of thousands of Warsaw Pact troops occupied the country for more than two decades.
He said that historical experience continues to shape Czech public opinion and support for Kyiv.
“The Czech society feels a big solidarity with Ukraine,” Macinka said, describing the war as a “symmetric war” between a powerful Russian military and a Ukrainian army backed by the West.
Macinka highlighted Prague’s leading role in a Czech-backed ammunition initiative supplying Ukraine with artillery rounds collected through international donor efforts.
Recalling a visit to Kyiv earlier in 2026, he said he received intelligence briefings on battlefield ammunition consumption from Ukrainian military officials.

The Czech initiative delivered more than half a million rounds of ammunition in 2026 alone, according to Macinka, helping stabilize the battlefield ahead of possible peace negotiations.
Macinka argued that maintaining a stable front is essential for meaningful negotiations, warning that shifting battle lines will only harden demands on both sides.

With Washington increasingly focused on the Middle East, Macinka also said Europe must begin taking a larger diplomatic role in future negotiations over Ukraine.
“America is quite busy with the Middle East,” he said. “Europe should wake up and ask for a place at the table.”
