CARL AZUZ, HOST: For the first time in 13 years, a U.S. president is asking Congress to formally authorize military force.

這是13年里總統(tǒng)第一次向國(guó)會(huì)請(qǐng)求授權(quán)展開軍事行動(dòng)。

That`s our first story today on CNN STUDENT NEWS.

這是今天CNN學(xué)生新聞的第一條新聞。

The White House plan was submitted yesterday. It`s got a time limit. It would expire in three years.

白宮計(jì)劃昨天提交一項(xiàng)軍事行動(dòng)計(jì)劃。這個(gè)軍事行動(dòng)是有時(shí)間限制的。有效期為三年。

President Obama said it could be reconsidered by the next president at that time. He says the U.S. should not get dragged into another prolonged ground war in the Middle East.

奧巴馬總統(tǒng)稱在下任總統(tǒng)上任時(shí)重新考慮該計(jì)劃。他稱美國(guó)不應(yīng)該卷入另一場(chǎng)中東地面戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)中。

But the authorization would allow the president to put U.S. boots on the ground, something he said last year he would not do.

但是授權(quán)之后將允許總統(tǒng)派遣美國(guó)部隊(duì)進(jìn)行地面戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)，他稱去年這一決議肯定不會(huì)通過(guò)。

BARACK OBAMA, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: And there`s no heavier decision than asking our men and women in uniform to risk their lives on our behalf. As commander-in-chief, I will only send our the president`s into harm`s way when it is absolutely necessary for our national security.

沒(méi)有比要求我們的軍人冒著生命危險(xiǎn)參與任務(wù)更沉重的了。作為總司令，我只會(huì)在戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)危機(jī)我們國(guó)家安全的情況下才會(huì)派遣部隊(duì)參加戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)。
