<p>2 月 13 日（路透社）- 高盛（Goldman Sachs，GS.N）首席执行官大卫·所罗门（David Solomon）表示，他不情愿地接受了首席法律官凯瑟琳·鲁默勒（Kathy Ruemmler）的辞职，他在周五接受 CNBC 采访时强调，他尊重她离开的决定。</p>
<p>“我不情愿地接受了她的辞职，但我尊重她的决定，” 他在接受 CNBC 采访时说道。</p>
<p>美国司法部最近发布的文件显示，鲁默勒曾接受已故性犯罪者杰弗里·爱泼斯坦（Jeffrey Epstein）的礼物，并向他提供关于如何应对媒体对其犯罪行为的询问的建议。鲁默勒的离职是华尔街公司高管中最引人注目的辞职，恰逢最新的爱泼斯坦文件发布。</p>
<p>所罗门告诉 CNBC，鲁默勒在周四下午给他打电话，告诉他她之前工作的媒体报道 “已经达到了一个噪音和干扰的程度，她认为这在干扰公司。”</p>
<p>“这让她处于一个很难履行工作和责任的位置，她认为是时候离开了，” 所罗门说。</p>
<p>文件显示，鲁默勒在 2014 年至 2019 年期间与爱泼斯坦有大量沟通，即使在这位声名狼藉的金融家在 2008 年因为为未成年人提供卖淫而认罪后。</p>
<p>在 2020 年加入高盛之前，鲁默勒曾担任 Latham &amp; Watkins LLP 的全球白领犯罪辩护和调查业务主席。</p>
<p>鲁默勒在奥巴马政府期间还担任白宫顾问，邮件中称爱泼斯坦为 “杰弗里叔叔”，并收到了包括葡萄酒和手袋在内的礼物，文件显示。</p>
<p>根据两份引用执法官员笔记的文件，爱泼斯坦在 2019 年 7 月 6 日被捕时也拨打了鲁默勒的手机，此外他那晚还拨打了其他电话。</p>
<p>鲁默勒未能被联系以发表评论。</p>
<p>高盛在美国司法部发布多份文件期间支持了这位律师，所罗门在周四的声明中表示，她是其领域中最杰出的专业人士之一。</p>
<p>周五，他告诉 CNBC，高盛的管理团队在过去六年中与鲁默勒密切合作。</p>
<p>“我们了解她作为一名专业人士，也了解她作为一个人。我认为在某些对话中，这一点常常被忽视，” 所罗门在 CNBC 上说。“我对事情发展到这种地步感到失望。”</p>

<p>Feb 13 (Reuters) - Goldman Sachs (GS.N) CEO David Solomon said he had reluctantly accepted Chief Legal Officer Kathy Ruemmler’s resignation, he told CNBC on Friday and stressed that he respected her decision to leave.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>2 月 13 日（路透社）- 高盛（Goldman Sachs，GS.N）首席执行官大卫·所罗门（David Solomon）表示，他不情愿地接受了首席法律官凯瑟琳·鲁默勒（Kathy Ruemmler）的辞职，他在周五接受 CNBC 采访时强调，他尊重她离开的决定。</p>
</div><p>“I reluctantly accepted her resignation, but I respect her decision,” he told CNBC in an interview.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>“我不情愿地接受了她的辞职，但我尊重她的决定，” 他在接受 CNBC 采访时说道。</p>
</div><p>Recent documents released by the U.S. Justice Department showed Ruemmler accepted gifts from late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and advised him on how to address media inquiries regarding his crimes. The departure of Ruemmler, who was among the top executive officers of the Wall Street firm, is the most high-profile banking exit after the release of the latest Epstein documents.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>美国司法部最近发布的文件显示，鲁默勒曾接受已故性犯罪者杰弗里·爱泼斯坦（Jeffrey Epstein）的礼物，并向他提供关于如何应对媒体对其犯罪行为的询问的建议。鲁默勒的离职是华尔街公司高管中最引人注目的辞职，恰逢最新的爱泼斯坦文件发布。</p>
</div><p>Solomon told CNBC Ruemmler called him on Thursday afternoon and told him that the press coverage of the work that she had done previously had “just gotten to a level of noise and distraction that she thought was distracting the firm.”</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>所罗门告诉 CNBC，鲁默勒在周四下午给他打电话，告诉他她之前工作的媒体报道 “已经达到了一个噪音和干扰的程度，她认为这在干扰公司。”</p>
</div><p>“It was putting her in a position where it was hard for her to execute on her job and her responsibilities, and she just thought it was time to step away,” Solomon said.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>“这让她处于一个很难履行工作和责任的位置，她认为是时候离开了，” 所罗门说。</p>
</div><p>Ruemmler had a large number of communications with Epstein from 2014 to 2019, even after the disgraced financier’s 2008 guilty plea for procuring a person under the age of 18 for prostitution, the documents showed.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>文件显示，鲁默勒在 2014 年至 2019 年期间与爱泼斯坦有大量沟通，即使在这位声名狼藉的金融家在 2008 年因为为未成年人提供卖淫而认罪后。</p>
</div><p>Before joining Goldman Sachs in 2020, Ruemmler was global chair of the white collar defense and investigations practice at Latham &amp; Watkins LLP.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>在 2020 年加入高盛之前，鲁默勒曾担任 Latham &amp; Watkins LLP 的全球白领犯罪辩护和调查业务主席。</p>
</div><p>Ruemmler, who was also White House counsel during the Obama administration, referred to Epstein in emails as “Uncle Jeffrey” and received gifts from him including wine and a handbag, the documents show.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>鲁默勒在奥巴马政府期间还担任白宫顾问，邮件中称爱泼斯坦为 “杰弗里叔叔”，并收到了包括葡萄酒和手袋在内的礼物，文件显示。</p>
</div><p>Epstein also called Ruemmler’s cell phone when he was arrested on July 6, 2019, among other calls he made that night, according to two documents that cited notes from law enforcement officials.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>根据两份引用执法官员笔记的文件，爱泼斯坦在 2019 年 7 月 6 日被捕时也拨打了鲁默勒的手机，此外他那晚还拨打了其他电话。</p>
</div><p>Ruemmler could not be reached for a comment.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>鲁默勒未能被联系以发表评论。</p>
</div><p>Goldman backed the lawyer during the release of the several documents by the U.S. Justice Department, with Solomon saying on Thursday in a statement she was one of the most accomplished professionals in her field.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>高盛在美国司法部发布多份文件期间支持了这位律师，所罗门在周四的声明中表示，她是其领域中最杰出的专业人士之一。</p>
</div><p>On Friday, he told CNBC, Goldman’s management team worked very closely with Ruemmler over the last six years.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>周五，他告诉 CNBC，高盛的管理团队在过去六年中与鲁默勒密切合作。</p>
</div><p>“We know her as a professional and we know her as a human being. And I think that’s lost sometimes in some of the dialogue,” Solomon said on CNBC. “I’m disappointed that it got to this.”</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>“我们了解她作为一名专业人士，也了解她作为一个人。我认为在某些对话中，这一点常常被忽视，” 所罗门在 CNBC 上说。“我对事情发展到这种地步感到失望。”</p>
