克林顿在埃及会见阿盟秘书长

2011-03-17来源:VOA

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is set to meet with Arab League Secretary General Amr Moussa on Wednesday, the second day of her visit to Egypt to promote democratic reforms.

Moussa, 74, is a veteran Egyptian diplomat and has announced his candidacy for the country's presidency.

Earlier Wednesday, Clinton toured Cairo's Tahrir Square, the epicenter of the pro-democracy uprising that led to last month's resignation of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak.

Clinton said visiting the square was a "great reminder of the power of the human spirit and desire for freedom and human rights and democracy."

She was welcomed by Egyptian citizens and shook hands with passersby in the square before meeting with Egyptian Prime Minister Essam Sharaf.

Clinton is also scheduled to meet with pro-democracy activists and members of Egypt's civil society. She is the highest-ranking U.S. official to visit Egypt since the anti-government protests.

美国国务卿希拉里.克林顿星期三将会见阿拉伯联盟秘书长阿穆尔.穆萨。星期三是克林顿访问埃及,推动民主改革的第二天。

现年74岁的穆萨是埃及的一位资深外交官。他宣布竞选埃及总统一职。

星期三早些时候,克林顿访问了埃及开罗的解放广场。这里是上个月推翻独裁者穆巴拉克的埃及民主示威活动中心。克林顿说,访问这座广场“很好地提醒人们,人类的精神、以及对自由、人权和民主的渴望所拥有的力量”。

克林顿受到埃及人的欢迎,并与广场上过往的民众握手。随后,她会见了埃及总理伊沙姆.沙拉夫。

克林顿还计划会见倡导民主的活动人士和埃及公民社会的成员。她是埃及发生反政府抗议活动后,美国访问埃及的最高级别的官员。
