  U.S. President Barack Obama is continuing to call for an end to post-election violence in Iran. He said he does not want to intervene in the election dispute. The president said he senses a desire for change among the Iranian public.

美国总统奥巴马继续呼吁伊朗结束选举后的暴力行动。他说,他不想干预选举争端。但是,奥巴马总统说,他能感觉到伊朗公众要求变革的愿望。

The president is responding cautiously to events in Iran.

奥巴马总统谨慎地对伊朗的事态作出反应。

He made clear the United States does not have a say in the choice of Iran's leaders, emphasizing that decision lies with the Iranian people.

他明确表示,美国无权选择伊朗的领导人。他强调,作这一决定的应该是伊朗民众。

"It's not productive, given the history of U.S.-Iranians relations, to be seen as meddling 1 - the U.S. president meddling in Iranian elections," he said.

奥巴马说:“考虑到美国和伊朗关系的历史,被看作介入伊朗选举,尤其是美国总统介入,是不会有成效的。”

But he said that does not mean he should remain silent about the violence that has erupted as protesters have taken to the streets to denounce the election results as fraud.

但是他又说,这并不意味他对伊朗民众街头抗议谴责诈选而爆发的暴力行动应当保持沉默。

"When I see peaceful dissent 2 being suppressed, wherever that takes place, it is of concern to me and it's of concern to the American people. That is not how governments should react with their people," he said.

他说:“当我看到以和平方式表示不同政见而遭到镇压,不管这种情况发生在什么地方,我和美国人民都会予以关注。那不是政府应该对自己民众作出的反应。”

The president spoke 3 in the White House Rose Garden Tuesday at the end of a press conference with South Korean President Lee Myung-bak.

奥巴马总统星期二和韩国总统李明博举行记者会结束时于白宫玫瑰园发表了谈话。

Once again, as he did during a session with reporters Monday, the president did not refer to any of the parties to the election dispute by name. He mentioned neither President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who is declaring victory, nor reformist candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi, who has alleged 4 election fraud.

正如他星期一在记者会上讲话时一样,今天他也没有点名指出伊朗选举争端中的几个政党。他既没提到宣布胜选的艾哈迈迪内贾德总统,也没提到指控诈选的改革派候选人穆萨维。

Mr. Obama did not weigh in on the charges of vote-rigging. But he did say the demonstrators reflect a growing desire for change in Iran.

奥巴马没有对诈选指控表示他的观点。但是他确实说,这次示威游行反映伊朗的改革愿望高涨。

"I do believe that something has happened in Iran where there is a questioning of the kinds of antagonistic 5 postures 6 toward the international community that have taken place in the past, and that there are people who want to see greater openness and greater debate and want to see greater democracy," said Mr. Obama.

他说:“我的确认为伊朗发生了变化,人们对伊朗对国际社会一向采取的那种对抗立场表示怀疑,有些伊朗人希望看到自己的国家能进一步开放、进一步展开辩论以及进一步民主化。”

The president said how that plays out over the coming days and weeks is something ultimately for the Iranian people to decide. But he said he stands strongly with those who believe the voice of the people should be heard and not suppressed.

奥巴马总统说,未来几天事态会有什么样的进展最终得取决于伊朗人民。但是他说,他坚决与那些认为应该听从民意、而不该压制民意的人站在一边。
