美国共和党参议员林赛·格雷厄姆于7月11日去世，享年71岁，初步诊断为主动脉撕裂1。这位在国会任职超过30年的资深议员以其外交调解能力和推动双党合作著称1。
格雷厄姆的追悼活动将分两日进行1。其追悼会将于周二在华盛顿国会大厦和国家教堂举行，届时特朗普、以色列总理内塔尼亚胡和乌克兰总统泽连斯基等世界领导人将出席1。周三，格雷厄姆的遗体将被运回其家乡南卡罗来纳州进行埋葬1。
格雷厄姆的政治生涯中，他曾对特朗普持批评态度，两人关系后来得以修复，他也因此被称为"特朗普耳语者"1。生前，格雷厄姆积极推动双党制裁俄罗斯提案，旨在阻止普京在乌克兰延续战争1。
格雷厄姆终身未婚1。其妹妹达琳·格雷厄姆已被州长任命填补其参议院席位，并将参加8月11日的特殊初选1。
Republican Senator Lindsey Graham died on July 11, 2025, at age 71 1. His preliminary diagnosis was aortic dissection 1. A two-day memorial service will honor the longtime legislator, with ceremonies held Tuesday at the U.S. Capitol and Washington National Cathedral, followed by burial in his native South Carolina on Wednesday 1. The funeral is expected to attract prominent figures including former President Donald Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky 1.
Graham served in Congress for more than 30 years and became known for his diplomatic mediation abilities 1. During his tenure, he championed bipartisan sanctions proposals against Russia aimed at preventing Vladimir Putin from prolonging the war in Ukraine 1. His relationship with Trump evolved significantly over time—Graham once called Trump "unfit for office" and "a kook," but the two later reconciled, earning Graham the nickname "Trump whisperer" 1.
Graham never married. His sister, Darline Graham, has been appointed by the state governor to fill his Senate position and will participate in a special primary election scheduled for August 11 1.
