The subjects: one concerns Russia. The U.S. intelligence community has accused Russia of interfering with the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
話題是關于俄羅斯。美國情報部門一直在指責俄羅斯干涉2016年美國大選。
Director Comey said that Russian President Vladimir Putin, quote, "hated U.S. Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton so much that he had a clear preference for the person running against her." But does that mean as some Democrats have suggested that members of the Trump campaign might have coordinated with Russia?
科米表示,俄羅斯總統(tǒng)普京曾表示,原文引述“非常討厭美國民主黨候選人希拉里·克林頓,而對與之競爭的對手存在好感。”這些話可以理解為,一些民主黨人士認為,特朗普競選團隊和俄羅斯存在“勾結”嗎?
