【Obama addresses Petraeus scandal, Benghazi】奥巴马就Petraeus丑闻讲话
At his first news conference since winning a second term last week, President Obama addressed the scandal that led to the resignation of David Petraeus.
自上周胜选连任以来的首次新闻发布会上，总统奥巴马就导致大卫·彼得雷乌斯离职的丑闻发表讲话。
U.S. President Barack Obama saying: "By his own assessment, he did not meet the standards that he felt were necessary as the director of CIA with respect to this personal matter." The president acknowledged that there is an ongoing FBI investigation but says he is not aware of any evidence indicating a breach of security. He went on to say this about his former CIA director.
美国总统奥巴马说：“他自己评估，关于这件私事他没有达到自认为的中央情报局局长必要的标准。”奥巴马承认联邦调查局正在展开调查，但他表示目前没有任何证据表明其破坏安全。针对他的前中央情报局局长，奥巴马接着说。
U.S. President Barack Obama saying: "My main hope right now is - is that he and his family are able to move on and that this ends up being a single side note on what has otherwise been an extraordinary career." Security issues dominated the event and the focus eventually turned to Benghazi. Specifically, Republican attacks on U.S. ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice's initial response to the seige that killed four Americans dead.
美国总统奥巴马说：“我现在主要的希望是，他和他的家人能继续前行，在原本已经是一个非凡的事业上这只是一个单边解释。”安全问题是该起事件的主要议题，最终把焦点转向了班加西。特别是，共和党攻击美国驻联合国大使苏珊·赖斯就造成四名美国人死亡的围攻事件作出的最初反应。
U.S. President Barack Obama saying: "For them to go after the UN ambassador, who had nothing to do with Benghazi (EDIT) and to besmirch her reputation is outrageous." Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham say they will block any efforts to promote Rice, who is a contender to replace Hillary Clinton as the U.S. Secretary of State.
美国总统奥巴马说：“对于他们跟随联合国大使，班加西没有任何关系，对她名声的玷污是不可容忍的。”赖斯是接任希拉里担任美国国务卿的竞争者，参议员约翰·麦凯恩和林赛·格雷厄姆表示将不惜一切代价阻碍她。
