"Loose talk" = cuộc nói chuyện lỏng lẻo -> cụm từ này nghĩa là đoạn hội thoại hoặc câu chuyện vô ý, hớ hênh, vô tình dẫn tới hậu quả là tiết lộ thông tin cá nhân hoặc nhạy cảm cho người khác biết.

Ví dụ
The EU's new defence budget might achieve little and loose talk of a joint army could do harm, a European watchdog has warned.

The idea of a deadline at the end of this month was agreed by Macron and Rinne, and isn’t shared by the EU. “We need to know what the U.K. is proposing,” Rinne said. “Loose talk about proposals for negotiations is irresponsible.”

There's a lot of loose talk out there about human rights being over, as it were. I think that's not true. I think that it's the most important language that has created ethical obligations across the barriers, across the walls, across the frontiers, and has created forms of solidarity that are extremely important and need to be defended.
