奥巴马总统就巴黎恐怖袭击事件英语演讲稿
we're going to do whatever it takes to work with the french people and with nations around theworld to bring these terrorists to justice, and to go after any terrorist networks that go after ourpeople.
we don't yet know all the details of what has happened. we have been in contact with frenchofficials to communicate our deepest condolences to the families of those who have beenkilled, to offer our prayers and thoughts to those who have been wounded. we have offered ourfull support to them. the situation is still unfolding. i've chosen not to call president hollande atthis time, because my expectation is that he's very busy at the moment. i actually, bycoincidence, was talking to him earlier today in preparation for the g20 meeting. but i amconfident that i'll be in direct communications with him in the next few days, and we'll becoordinating in any ways that they think are helpful in the investigation of what's happened.
this is a heartbreaking situation. and obviously those of us here in the united states know whatit's like. we've gone through these kinds of episodes ourselves. and whenever these kinds ofattacks happened, we've always been able to count on the french people to stand with us. theyhave been an extraordinary counterterrorism partner, and we intend to be there with themin that same fashion.
i'm sure that in the days ahead we'll learn more about exactly what happened, and my teamswill make sure that we are in communication with the press to provide you accurateinformation. i don't want to eculate at this point in terms of who was reonsible for this. itappears that there may still be live activity and dangers that are taking place as we eak. andso until we know from french officials that the situation is under control, and we have for moreinformation about it, i don't want to eculate.
thank you very much.
