White House support for a ban on sweet and fruity e-cigarettes appeared to be softening, as President Trump said the market prohibition could have dangerous consequences.

白宫对禁止甜味、果味电子烟的支持似乎有所软化，因为特朗普总统表示，禁止市场销售可能会产生危险的后果。

“If you don’t give it to them, it is GOINg to come here illegally,” he said in a meeting Friday with vaping industry leaders, public-health advocates and others on policies to address a surge in underage vaping.

“如果你不把它给他们，它就会非法来到这里，”他在周五与电子烟行业领袖、公共健康倡导者和其他人在有关政策的会议上说，这些政策旨在解决未成年电子烟激增的问题。

Mr. Trump said that instead of legitiMATe companies “making something that’s safe, they are going to be selling stuff on a street corner that could be horrible. That’s the one problem I can’t seem to forget.”

特朗普说，如果不是合法公司 “生产安全的东西，而是有人在街角兜售可能很可怕的东西”。这似乎是一个我无法忘记的问题。”

“Now instead of having a flavor that’s at least safe, they are going to be having a flavor that’s poison,” he said.

他说:“现在，现有的味道至少是安全的，不然就会是一种有毒的味道。”

Mr. Trump in September announced a plan to curb underage vaping by barring all e-cigarettes except those that taste like tobacco. The administration had been expected to release details on the ban earlier this month, but it was delayed following pushback from conservative interest groups, vaping industry advocates and e-cigarette users.

9月，特朗普宣布了一项计划，禁止所有电子烟(除了味道像烟草的电子烟)，以遏制未成年人吸电子烟。政府本应在本月早些时候公布禁令的细节，但由于保守派利益集团、电子烟行业倡导者和电子烟用户的反对，该禁令被推迟发布。

Mr. Trump on Friday reiterated his support for raising the minimum age to purchase e-cigarettes and other tobacco products to 31 from 18, a move backed by e-cigarette maker
