奥巴马敦促阿巴斯接受会谈框架



President Barack Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry held extensive talks with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Washington Monday. The closed-door meeting at the White House was aimed at securing a framework accord between the Israelis and Palestinians that will extend negotiations 2 beyond the current April 29 deadline.


美国总统奥巴马和国务卿克里周一在白宫与巴勒斯坦权力机构主席阿巴斯进行了广泛的会谈。这次闭门会谈旨在推动以色列和巴勒斯坦达成一项框架性协议,让他们在当前会谈4月29日结束之后可以继续谈判。


The talks that began in July are focused on creating an independent Palestinian state and ending decades of conflict. At the beginning of the talks Monday, President Obama acknowledged that a peace deal remains 3 elusive 4.


去年7月开始的会谈重点在于建立一个独立的巴勒斯坦国和结束持续了几十年的冲突。在周一会谈开始的时候,奥巴马总统承认,和平协议仍在未定之天。


"It's very hard, it's very challenging, we are going to have to take some tough political decisions and risks if we are able to move it forward. My hope is that we can continue to see progress in the coming days and weeks," said Obama.


奥巴马: “这很困难,很有挑战性。如果我们想要推动这个进程,就必须做出一些艰难的政治决定并承担风险。我希望在接下来的几天和几周内我们可以继续看到进展。”


Israel's latest demand that the Palestinians should recognize it as a Jewish state is a new obstacle in the talks. President Abbas has said the Palestinians have recognized the state of Israel already but will not recognize it as a Jewish state.


以色列最近要求巴勒斯坦人承认以色列是一个犹太国家,这成为会谈中的一个新障碍。阿巴斯说过,巴勒斯坦人已经承认了以色列国家,不会同意这个要求。


"I would also like to affirm what you have said that we are working for a solution that is based on international legitimacy 5 and also the 1967 borders so that the Palestinians can have their own independent state with East Jerusalem as its capital, and so that we can find a fair and lasting 6 solution to the refugee problem," said Abbas.


阿巴斯: “我想确认,你说的是我们正在努力根据国际法和1967年的边界线达成一项解决方案,使巴勒斯坦人可以拥有他们自己的独立国家,东耶路撒冷是它的首都;由此,我们可以找到一个公平、持久的办法来解决难民问题。”


Israeli construction of new settlements on territories that Palestinians want for their state, including parts of Jerusalem, is seen as the main obstacle to a deal. Israel is blaming the Palestinians for deadly attacks on its people and property.


以色列在包括部分耶路撒冷在内的巴勒斯坦要求的领土上建立新的定居点,这被认为是谈判的最大障碍。以色列指责巴勒斯坦人对以色列居民和财产发动致命袭击。


While Washington pushed Abbas Monday to accept compromises, Palestinians in several West Bank cities rallied to demand that he resist the pressure.


尽管华盛顿敦促阿巴斯接受妥协,但约旦河西岸好几个城市的巴勒斯坦人则集会要求阿巴斯顶住压力。


"We stand today unified 7, thousands from the city of Hebron, to say to President Mahmoud Abbas, that we are with you to reject all the pressures, we are with you to insist on Palestinians principles on the Palestinian unified position, and for a cause that tens of thousands have died and got injured for," said Odeh Rajabi, a demonstrator in Hebron.


希伯伦示威者拉扎比说:“我们几千人聚集在希伯伦,团结一致。我们要对阿巴斯主席说,我们和你一起顶住压力,和你一起坚持巴勒斯坦人共同的立场,和你一起推动成千上万的人不惜为之流血牺牲的事业。”


"The Palestinian president left Palestine saying that he is going and will not give in, will not give up on Jerusalem. And we came here today to say that we will not surrender or concede, and we will not accept extending the negotiations," said Sawsan Shaheen, a demonstrator in Ramallah.


在拉马拉参加抗议活动的沙欣说:“巴勒斯坦主席离开巴勒斯坦时说,他不会妥协,不会在耶路撒冷问题上让步。我们今天来到这里,我们要说,我们不会投降或者让步,我们不同意延长谈判。”


Jim Walsh, an analyst 8 at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, said that neither side can afford to let the United States walk away from the talks.


但是麻省理工学院分析员沃尔什说,没有任何一方能够承受美国离开谈判桌带来的代价。


"If there is no negotiation 1, what is the alternative? For the Palestinians, that means boycotts 9 and pressure from the U.N., and that's a very difficult road. And for the Israelis, the alternative is not very good either at a time when the region is in turmoil," said Walsh.


沃尔什:“如果不谈判,会是什么?对巴勒斯坦人来说,这意味着要面对来自联合国的抵制和压力,是一条非常艰难的道路。对于以色列人来说,在该地区一片混乱的时刻,也不会有什么好结果。”


Walsh told Alhurra television that this round of talks is likely to produce an extension of the April 29 deadline, which he said is better than no prospects 10 of talks at all.


沃尔什告诉自由电视台,这轮谈判很可能延长4月29日的截止日期,这比没有任何会谈的前景要好。
