《纽约时报》日前抛出一爆炸性大新闻,声称马斯克将在五角大楼“听取美国军方有关潜在对华战争计划的绝密简报”。随后,多方紧急辟谣。当地时间21日,美国总统特朗普再次回应称,“美国不想与中国发生任何潜在战争”。
US President Donald Trump said he's not interested in showing "anybody" plans for how the US would navigate a conflict with China after a New York Times report that SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk's meeting at the Pentagon Friday included details about contingency plans for any war with China.
据报道,当地时间21日,在宣布一份美军新型战斗机国防合同的记者会上,特朗普回应称,“美国不想与中国发生任何潜在战争”。
Trump told reporters Friday that Musk met with Pentagon officials to discuss initiatives relating to the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) that Musk is spearheading. "We don't want to have a potential war with China," Trump said at the Oval Office Friday.

“他们编造了这个故事,因为这是一个好故事。他们都是非常不诚实的人。”特朗普称《纽约时报》的报道让他大感意外,“我打电话给(美国国防部长)皮特,我问:‘(报道说的)是真的吗?’绝对不是,他(马斯克)是为了政府效率部的事来的,不是为了中国。如果你提到中国,我想他会走出房间。”
《纽约时报》20日援引消息人士爆料称,美国国防部定于21日向马斯克作简报,内容是美国为可能与中国作战制定的军事计划。
另一名官员表示,简报会将重点讨论中国问题,但没有提供更多细节。
报道称,五角大楼的战争计划属于最高级别的军事机密,一旦提前被对手掌握,将大大降低美国实施这些计划的成功性。有关对华战争计划的顶级机密简报被做成大约20到30张幻灯片。
The New York Times reported Thursday evening that Musk's Pentagon briefing would involve a presentation with 20–30 slides on how the US would combat China, various Chinese targets to strike and how the Pentagon would share these plans with Trump.
了解这项计划的美国官员透露,其中包含中国产生威胁的迹象和警报,以及对中国哪些目标、在什么时段进行打击的多种选项,这些都将呈给美国总统特朗普进行决策。
《纽约时报》刊登了此次简报会的消息数小时后,五角大楼官员和特朗普否认此次会晤将讨论涉及中国的军事计划。
当地时间20日晚,特朗普在其自创的社交媒体平台“真实社交”上发文否认了这一消息,“这多荒唐啊?中国甚至不会被提及或讨论。”

美国防部长皮特・赫格塞思在社交平台X上发文称,这是一场“有关创新、效率和更智能生产的非正式会议”。
Musk visited the Pentagon on Friday, where he met for more than an hour with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Trump and Hegseth said the meeting was focused on innovation and cutting costs. Musk has been leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which has looked to slash federal spending and the size of the workforce.
随后,马斯克也在X平台上贴出特朗普的帖文截图,并称“期待起诉五角大楼那些将消息恶意泄露给《纽约时报》的人”,“他们会被找到”。
Musk also said in a separate post he looks "forward to the prosecutions of those at the Pentagon who are leaking maliciously false information to NYT." "They will be found," he said.
