卡梅伦谈到两国之间的共同历史和他们双方的企业和科学事业。

Cameron said, "That is what makes this relationship special. But what makes it essential, is that it's not just about history or sentiment. It is a living, working, partnership. It is essential to our security, and it's essential for our prosperity."
卡梅伦说：“那正是我们关系特殊的地方。但是我们关系是必要的并不只是关于历史或情感。这是一个生动的，可行的合作关系。这对于我们的安全问题是必要的，而且对于我们国家的繁荣也是必要的。”

Obama was equally warm about the relationship.

In the wide-ranging session, the two leaders reaffirmed their joint resolve on Libya. The US President then said he believes a two-state Israeli-Palestinian solution is achievable, but urged both sides to return to the negotiating table.

奥巴马还重申他们有义务支持整个中东民主的渴望。

Obama said, "As historic change unfolds across the Middle East and North Africa, we agree that the pursuit of self-determination must be driven by the peoples of the region, and not imposed from the outside. But we are both committed to doing everything that we can, to support peoples who reach for democracy, and leaders who implement democratic reform."
奥巴马说：“由于整个中东和北非展现出历史性的改变，我们承认追求独立自主必须由该地区的人民去推动，而不是由该地区以外的人强加。但是我们都有义务做我们力所能及的事，即支持希望获得民主的人民和实行民主改革的领导人。”
