摘要：On September 14 local time, when US President Trump defended the US military's recent attack on the so-called "drug shipment boats

On September 14 local time, when US President Trump defended the US military's recent attack on the so-called "drug shipment boats from Venezuela" in the Caribbean Sea, he cited a shocking figure: "300 million people died from drugs last year." As soon as these words were uttered, American people were stunned.

The current total population of the United States is only 340 million. How could "300 million die from drugs in a year"? Many people joked: "Got it, so only 40 million people are left in the US now, right?" Others asked: "What the hell? Are we all dead?"

The number Trump threw out left the entire internet bewildered. If he was referring to the global figure, according to a relevant report released by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, the number of deaths worldwide in 2021 due to drug use disorders (including direct drug overdose and complications) was approximately 500,000.

当地时间9月14日，美国总统特朗普为近来美军在加勒比海袭击了所谓“从委内瑞拉出发的运毒船”辩解时又爆“毒”门数据：“去年3亿人死于毒品”。此言一出，美国网友惊呆。

目前美国总人口才3.4亿，是怎么做到“一年因毒品送走3亿”的？不少美国网友调侃：懂了，现在美国只剩4000万人了是吧。还有网友发问：什么鬼？我们都死了？

特朗普甩出的这个数字，让全网懵了：如果是指全球的话，据联合国毒品和犯罪问题办公室发布的相关报告，2021年全球因毒品使用障碍（包括直接吸毒过量及并发症）导致的死亡人数约为50万。
