美国有线新闻 CNN 罕见现象! 美国参议院全体参加安全会议

It's pretty rare for the entire 100-member U.S. Senate is called to the White House for a security meeting. That's what's first today on CNN 10.

美国参议院100名议员全部被召集到白宫参加一次安全会议。这种情况是非常罕见的。这是今天CNN10的首要新闻。

While the subject of yesterday's event was North Korea, much of the information shared with senators was classified, so we don't know exactly what details were discussed in the meeting.

尽管昨天会议的主题是朝鲜，但与会参议员分享的信息大多都是保密的，因此我们不清楚会议上具体讨论了什么内容。

There was a statement released by U.S. government officials, though. It said the Trump¹ administration sees North Korea's pursuit of nuclear weapons and intercontinental missiles as an urgent security threat and that the president wants to increase pressure on North Korea to stop these programs.

美国政府官方发表了一份声明。声明表示，特朗普政府认为朝鲜追求核武器和洲际导弹的行为是对美国国家安全的紧急威胁，总统希望加大对朝鲜的施压，以阻止这些项目。

The White House says it wants to do this peacefully with the help of allies like South Korea and Japan, but that the U.S. is also prepared to defend those allies, as well as itself.

白宫表示，他们希望在韩国和日本等盟友的帮助下，和平地达到这一目标，当然美国也准备好保护这些盟友还有美国本身。

Some of the senators who attended said they were glad to hear the White House's strategy for dealing² with North Korea, others said they learned nothing new.

一些参加会议的参议员表示，他们很高兴听到白宫处理朝鲜问题的战略，其他参议员则表示，他们并没有听到任何新信息。
