导读:近日，中国海船在南海捕获一艘无人水下潜航器，经证实为美国所有。中国国防部已同意将其移交至美国。可是，总统当选人特朗普再发推文针对中国，并扬言，潜航器不要了。
WASHINGTON (REUTERS) - United States President-elect Donald Trump continued to take jabs at China on Twitter on Saturday (Dec 17) after Beijing agreed to give back an underwater US drone it seized this week.
路透社华盛顿电 12月17日星期六，美国当选总统唐纳德·特朗普在推特上再次对中国采取攻势，而此前北京同意归还中国于本周捕获的一艘美国潜航器。
"We should tell China that we don’t want the drone they stole back - let them keep it!" Trump tweeted.
“我们应该告诉中国，他们偷还的潜航器我们不要了——就让他们留着吧！”特朗普发推文说道。
The Pentagon went public with its complaint after the action and said on Saturday it had secured a deal to get the drone back.
五角大楼在潜航器被捕之后公开表达了不满，并于本周六表示，已确保将无人潜航器引渡回国。
“Through direct engagement with Chinese authorities, we have secured an understanding that the Chinese will return the UUV to the United States,” Pentagon spokesman Peter Cook said in a statement.
五角大楼发言人皮特·库克在声明中表示：“通过与中方的直接交涉，我们已经确悉中国将会把无人水下潜航器归还给美国。”
China’s Defence Ministry said a Chinese naval vessel discovered a piece of “unidentified equipment” and checked it to prevent any navigational safety issues before discovering it was a US drone.
中国国防部称，中国海船发现了一具“不明设备”，并为了防止航行安全问题对其进行了检查，而后才发现这是一艘美国无人潜航器。
“China decided to return it to the US side in an appropriate manner, and China and the US have all along been in communication about it,” the ministry said on its website.
“中国决定以一种合适的方式将潜航器归还给美方，中国和美国将会就此事保持联系。”
“During this process, the US side’s unilateral and open hyping up is inappropriate, and is not beneficial to the smooth resolution of this issue. We express regret at this,” it added
“在此过程当中，美方单方面进行公开炒作是不合适的，且不利于问题的顺利解决。”中国国防部补充道。.
Trump, a Republican who takes office on Jan 20, had waded into the dispute on Twitter early on Saturday from his seaside resort club in Florida, where he plans to spend the holidays.
将于1月20日入主白宫的特朗普早于本周六在推特上卷入了此次纷争，当时他正在佛罗里达海滨胜地俱乐部计划度假。
