[(Title)] Czechoslovakia's spy agency targeted Donald Trump in 1980s through wife Ivana's father, archive files reveal.

Czechoslovakia's former spy agency targeted Donald Trump in the 1980s as part of a mission to gain information about the US government, archive files have revealed.

档案文件显示，捷克斯洛伐克前间谍机构在上世纪八十年代以特朗普为目标，作为获取美国政府信息任务的一部分。

The country's intelligence service, Státní bezpečnost (StB), began their operation to spy on Mr Trump in 1977, when he married his first wife, Ivana Zelníčková.

该国的情报部门于1977年开始对特朗普进行侦察，当时他与第一任妻子伊万娜结婚。

The operation was based in Miss Zelníčková's hometown Zlín in south-west Czechoslovakia and relied on tips from her father Miloš Zelníček, according to files seen by The Guardian newspaper.

根据《卫报》所看到的文件，此次行动以捷克斯洛伐克西南部的伊万娜女士的家乡为依据，针对伊万娜的父亲泽尔尼·耶克展开。

Mr Zelníček was a regular informant for the agency, passing on information to the local StB office from his daughter's trips home and tidbits about Mr Trump's career.

泽尔尼·耶克是该机构的一名告密者，从他女儿回家的旅程中向当地捷克情报与安全局（Stb）传递信息，并透露了特朗普的工作。

The future US president was already a well known figure, thanks to his New York real estate empire and considered to be well connected to the upper echelons of American society.

未来的美国总统当时已经是一个知名人物，多亏他的纽约房地产帝国，被认为与美国社会上层人有着很好的联系。

The StB's interest in Mr Trump increased after the 1988 US election, which saw Republican George HW Bush elected president.

在1988年的美国选举后，StB对特朗普的兴趣有所增加，当时共和党总统乔治.HW.布什当选。

Mr Zelníček told officers that his daughter Ivana had "confidently" predicted Mr Bush's victory shortly before the 1988 election.

泽尔尼·耶克对Stb的人说，他的女儿伊万娜在1988年大选前“自信地预言”布什不久将获胜。

"The outcome of the election confirmed the veracity of this information,"  agent Lt Peter Surý wrote, in a document dated 23 January 1989 and marked  "secret" .

"选举结果证实了这一信息的真实性，"特工Peter Surlj在1989年1月23日的一份文件中写道，并标有"秘密"。

The prediction came  "from the highest echelons of power in the US" . Ivana was  "not only a well-heeled US citizen"  but moved in  "very top political circles" , Mr Surý said.

“来自美国最高权力阶层”的预测是“伊万娜“不仅是一位有见地的美国公民”，而是在“非常顶尖的政治圈子”中移动。

The agency's first directorate responsible for foreign spy missions attempted to "deepen" its operation around Mr Trump, new archive records obtained by the Guardian and the Czech magazine Respekt show.

该机构第一家负责外国间谍活动的局试图围绕特朗普“加深”其运作，新的《卫报》和捷克杂志《Respekt》获得的档案记录。

"Trump was of course a very interesting person for us. He was a businessman, he had a lot of contacts, even in US politics,"  Vlastimil Daněk, a former StB official, told the newspaper.

“特朗普对我们来说非常有意义。他是一位商人，他有很多联系人，甚至在美国政治领域，”前安全局官员Vlastimil Dank对该报说。

"We were focusing on him, we knew he was influential. We had information that he wanted to be president in future."

“我们专注于他，我们知道他有影响力。我们有消息说他希望将来成为总统。”

Mr Daněk said his superiors in the agency's Prague headquarters were also focused on Mr Trump.  "It wasn't only us who paid attention to him. The first department of the StB were interested in him.

Vlastimil Dank表示，该机构布拉格总部的上司也关注特朗普。他说：“我们不仅仅是关注特朗普的人。监管局第一个部门也对他感兴趣。

I don't know if the first directorate shared information on Trump with the KGB. I can't verify or deny."

我不知道第一局是否与克格勃分享关于特朗普的信息。我不能核实或否认。”

The agency, in what was then Communist-run Czechoslovakia, also routinely shared intelligence with their Russian counterparts, the KGB.

在当时的共产主义捷克斯洛伐克，该机构也经常与俄罗斯同行克格勃分享情报。

The Trumps are known to have visited Moscow in 1987 at the invitation of the Soviet Union's ambassador in Washington. The trip was arranged by Intourist, the official state travel agency.

据悉，受苏联驻华盛顿大使的邀请，特鲁姆普夫妇于1987年访问了莫斯科。这次访问是由官方旅行社Intourist安排的。

It was shortly after this trip that Mr Trump first hinted he was considering a presidential bid.

这次访问后不久，特朗普首次暗示他正在考虑总统要约。

The extent of the Soviet Union's attempts to spy on Mr Trump is unclear since known,

苏联对特朗普进行间谍活动的程度迄今尚不清楚。

but the newly uncovered documents show both Moscow and communist-run Czechoslovakia were extremely interested in the businessman and had taken note of his political ambitions.

但是，新发现的文件显示，莫斯科和共产经营的捷克斯洛伐克对该商人极为感兴趣，并注意到他的政治野心。
