中新网北京12月16日电(蒋鲤)进入12月以来，美国频频在叙利亚盗运石油资源。仅10余天内就盗运三次，近150余辆油罐车满载着该国东北部油田的石油资源前往伊拉克。

　　进入冬季，美国仍旧频繁盗采叙利亚石油，直接导致叙国内更严重的能源危机。在美军油罐车排队将石油运出叙利亚时，当地民众却只能排队几小时等在加油站前。有人表示，由于美军及其支持的反对派武装盗取叙利亚资源行为，他们被迫在寒冷中过冬。

　　同时，受乌克兰危机持续等因素影响，国际油价接近多年来最高水平，窃取叙利亚石油让美国获得了更多收益，并进一步扰乱了叙利亚石油市场，导致叙国内油价飙升，当地民众苦不堪言。

　　自2011年内战爆发至今，战火已让叙利亚满目疮痍。美国不但一直搅动叙利亚局势，至今仍然占领着该国东北部大片土地，控制了90%的石油资源。在叙利亚的非法驻军，不断盗窃着石油、粮食等资源，加剧了叙利亚的能源和粮食危机。

　　除了非法盗取石油、粮食，美国还肆意对叙利亚进行经济封锁和制裁，给叙经济造成严重破坏，阻碍叙重建进程。如今，叙利亚三分之二人口依赖人道援助维持生计，过半人口无法得到粮食保障，进一步加剧了叙利亚的人道主义灾难。

　　联合国秘书长叙利亚问题特使吉尔·彼得森表示，目前叙利亚的民生状况令人担忧，每10个叙利亚人中就有9人处于贫困状态，约1500万叙利亚人急需人道主义援助。

　　美国反复标榜要维护“以规则为基础的国际秩序”，但自己却不断违反国际法和国际规则。其所谓的“规则”，不过是服务自身利益、维护霸权地位的借口和幌子。

　　正如法国前驻美大使热拉尔·阿罗等人士所说，即便想做的事情违反国际法，美国也会为所欲为，因为定义规则的标准在他们手中。

　　美国到底给叙利亚带来了什么？打着“民主”与“和平”的口号，侵犯叙利亚主权、掠夺资源，正如叙外交部所言，美国的海盗行为，就是企图回到过时的殖民时代。

　　Is the U.S. colonizing Syria by frequently stealing its oil?

　　(ECNS) – The U.S. military has stolen Syrian oil three times in half a month since December, transporting nearly 150 tanks from the northeastern oil fields of Syria to Iraq.

　　Tankers lined up to transport oil out of Syria, while local people had to wait in line for several hours in front of gas stations. Its frequent theft of oil has resulted in severe energy shortages in Syria, while some civilians say they are spending the winter in the cold.

　　Affected by the continuing Ukraine crisis, the oil price has reached the highest level ever, which enables the U.S. to earn more by dealing oil stolen from Syria. Meanwhile, the U.S. has disrupted the Syrian oil market, leading to soaring oil prices in the country.

　　Syria has been devastated by civil war since 2011. The U.S. has not only stirred up the situation but also occupies a large area of northeast Syria, controlling 90 percent of the country’s oil resources. Illegal troops stationed in Syria have been stealing oil, food and other resources, aggravating the energy and food crisis there.

　　Apart from oil, the U.S. has also plundered Syrian wheat and imposed an economic blockade and sanctions on the country, which has devastated its economy and hindered reconstruction. Two-thirds of the Syrian population relies on humanitarian assistance, and over half are food-insecure, further exacerbating the humanitarian disaster in the country.

　　The UN Secretary-General's Special Envoy for Syria, Geir Pedersen, paid a visit to Syria a few days ago, stressing that 90 percent of Syrians live in poverty and about 15 million are in urgent need of humanitarian aid.

　　The U.S. has boasted of maintaining a “rule-based international order,” but it constantly violates international laws and rules. Its so-called "rules" are just pretexts to serve its own interests and maintain global hegemony.

　　As the former French Ambassador to the U.S. Gerard Araud said, the U.S. will do whatever it wants even if something may violate international laws, because it is the country that defines international laws.

　　What has the U.S. brought to Syria? Under the lies of "democracy" and “peace,” it has infringed on the sovereignty of Syria and plundered its resources.

　　Like the Syrian Foreign Ministry said, “The U.S. continues to steal Syrian oil across the Syrian-Iraqi border and transfer it to northern Iraq, which represents piracy and an attempt to return to outdated colonial times.”
