An influential US senate committee has authorized military action over the use of chemical weapons in Syria. A similar motion is been discussed by a committee of the House of representatives. Jane O'Brien reports.
美国有影响力的参议院委员会在化学武器使用的问题上授权对叙利亚动武,类似的提议在众议院委员会也已经被讨论过。Jane O'Brien为您报道。
The Obama administration expected military action to be a tough sell. And today's initial vote by members of the Senate's Foreign Relations Committee was close, passing by 10 votes to 7. This is only the first hurdle though. The resolution granting the president's 60 days to use force against Syria with a guarantee that American troops won't be used in ground combat now goes to the full senate.
奥巴马政府本以为军事行动的提议难以获得批准。今天参议院外交关系委员会成员的初步投票以10:7的比例通过。然而,这只是最基本的阻碍,现在总统有权对叙利亚采取为期60天的军事行动,前提是要保证美军不能参与地面上的战斗,参议院现已全部投票。
