VOA常速英语2021--拜登要矫正美国外交(在线收听) |
This is VOA news. Reporting by remote, I'm David Byrd. President Joe Biden made clear Thursday that the world should expect a more diplomatically engaged United States moving forward. AP's Sagar Meghani reports. After four years of "America First," "America is back. Diplomacy is back." On his first trip to the State Department, the president sought to reassure a diplomatic corps maligned under Trump that it'll be at the heart of a foreign policy reset. "I trust you. I'm going to have your back." He took a strong line on Russia saying he told Vladimir Putin in a phone call the days of the U.S. rolling over are gone. The president says he's freezing a U.S. troop pullout from Germany, ending support of Saudi Arabia's offensive in Yemen and making LGBTQ rights a cornerstone of diplomacy.

In response, a Trump adviser said that he would not testify. The request in a letter from House impeachment managers does not require Trump to appear though the Senate could later force a subpoena, but it does warn that any refusal to testify could be used at trial to support arguments for a conviction. Even if Trump never testifies, the request nonetheless makes clear Democrats' determination to present an aggressive case against him even though he has left the White House. 众议院民主党人周四要求前总统特朗普为参议院弹劾案的审判出庭宣誓作证,让这位前总统应对挑战,回应国会对他上月煽动暴力暴徒冲击国会大厦的指控。对此,特朗普的一位顾问表示,他不会作证。众议院弹劾经理在致信中提及的要求并不包括让特朗普出庭,尽管参议院稍后可能会强制传唤,但信中确实警告称,任何拒绝作证的行为都可能在审判中被用来作为支持定罪的论据。尽管特朗普从未出庭作证,但这一要求清楚表明了民主党人的决心,即即使他已经离开白宫,也要对他提出一个强硬的指控。 On Wall Street, stocks closed higher with the Dow up 1.08 percent, the S&P gaining 1.09 percent and the NASDAQ rose by 1.23 percent.
