US lawmaker accuses Bush of secrecy over Iraq deal美国国会议员指责布什在伊拉克保密协议 Friday, November 21st, 2008 星期五, 2008年11月21号
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The US government is refusing to make public the security pact it has signed with Iraq, even though it has already been published in full in an Iraqi newspaper, a congressional hearing was told Wednesday. (华盛顿讯) -美国政府拒绝公开安全协议,它已与伊拉克签署的,尽管它已经出版的全部在伊拉克报纸,国会听证会上获悉星期三。 Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice were holding a closed briefing for US House members on the pact signed Monday that sets a 2011 deadline for US troops to withdraw from Iraq.美国国防部长罗伯特盖茨和国务卿赖斯举行了一个封闭的简报,美国众议院成员对协议签署日确定了2011年的最后期限为美国军队撤出伊拉克。 Rep. Bill Delahunt, chairman of the Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on International Organizations and Human Rights, before the closed briefing called it “insulting and an after-thought,” after the Bush administration earlier rebuffed calls for Congress to be consulted during year-long negotiations on the agreement.众议员比尔德拉亨特主席,外交部长小组委员会国际组织和人权,在公开通报它所谓的“侮辱和后认为, ”之后,布什政府先前拒绝了要求国会进行协商期间长达一年的谈判关于协议。 The administration has said it will not seek congressional approval for the deal.布什政府已经表示,它将不会寻求国会批准的协议。 It has been in a hurry to finalize the pact, which Iraqi lawmakers still must approve, before the UN mandate under which US troops operate expires Dec. 31.它一直急于完成双方达成的协议,其中伊拉克国会议员仍然必须批准,在联合国授权下运作美军12月31日到期。 Delahunt, who has urged President George W. Bush to renew the UN mandate rather than sign a bilateral agreement with Iraq, held the eighth in a series of hearings on the Status of Forces Agreement.德拉亨特,谁也敦促美国总统布什重申联合国的授权,而不是签署一项双边协议,伊拉克举行的第八次中了一系列听证会的部队地位协定。 He said the Bush administration had turned down an invitation to attend the open hearing, saying it was a “sensitive time.” Experts testifying before his subcommittee were forced to rely on an unofficial English translation of the security deal.他说,布什政府已经拒绝了邀请,出席公开听证会,说这是一个“敏感的时刻。 ”专家作证他的小组委员会不得不依靠一个非官方的英文译本的安全协议。 “Even now the National Security Council has requested that we do not show this document to our witnesses or release it to the public. “即使是现在的国家安全委员会已要求我们不要显示这个文件对我们的证人或发布给公众。 Now that’s incredible — meantime the Iraqi government has posted this document on its media website,” Delahunt, a Massachusetts Democrat, said.现在,令人难以置信-与此同时,伊拉克政府公布这一文件在其新闻网站, “德拉亨特,一个马萨诸塞州民主党说。 He was referring to the Iraqi government-funded al-Sabah newspaper, whose Arabic version of the deal is also the source of the only known unofficial English translation, by the anti-war American Friends Service Committee.他指的是伊拉克政府资助的萨巴赫报纸,其阿拉伯文版的处理也是源目前唯一已知的非官方英文译本,由反战美国朋友服务委员会。 “There is something bizarre about the text being disseminated to the Iraqi people and we are being told we cannot distribute the English-language version of the agreement,” said Rep. Howard Berman, a California Democrat who chairs the House Foreign Affairs Committee. “有什么奇怪的文本散发给伊拉克人民和我们被告知我们不能发行英文版的协议说, ”议员霍华德伯曼,加利福尼亚州民主党谁担任众议院外交委员会。 JOINT MILITARY CENTER联合军事中心 According to the unofficial version, the United States and Iraq are to set up a joint committee to oversee and coordinate all offensive US military operations.据非官方的版本,美国和伊拉克成立一个联合委员会,以监督和协调所有进攻美国的军事行动。 “All such military operations that are carried out pursuant to this agreement shall be conducted with the agreement of the government of Iraq. “所有这些军事行动进行了根据该协定应征得其同意,伊拉克政府。 Such operations shall be fully coordinated with Iraqi authorities,” the translated document says.这种行动应充分协调与伊拉克当局, “翻译的文件说。 Oona Hathaway, a law professor at the University of California, Berkeley, said it appeared the agreement would give the joint committee operational control over US military operations. Oona哈撒韦,法学教授在加州大学伯克利分校的说,看来该协议将使联合委员会的业务控制美国的军事行动。 If so, that would be “unprecedented and extremely unusual,” she said.如果是这样的话,这将是“前所未有的,极不寻常, ”她说。 “The president can enter into agreements on his own but this agreement goes far beyond the president’s independent constitutional powers,” Hathaway said. “总统可以进入协定对自己的这一协议,但远远超出了总统的独立的宪法权力, ”哈撒韦说。 She said challenging the legality of the agreement was compounded by the vagueness of much of its wording.她说,具有挑战性的合法性协议是复杂的含糊其大部分的措辞。 She said standard SOFAs are several hundred pages, but the Iraqi one was a little over 20 pages.她说,标准的部队地位协定有几百个网页,但伊拉克是一个多一点的20页。 On the controversial issue of Iraqi criminal jurisdiction over US soldiers, the unofficial English version says Iraq will have that right “when such crimes are committed outside agreed facilities and outside duty status.” It does not define “duty status.”对有争议的问题,伊拉克刑事管辖权美军士兵,非官方的英文版本说,伊拉克将这一权利“时,这类罪行的境外商定设施和外部责任的地位。 ”它不界定“工作地点的地位。 ” But any US service members arrested or detained by Iraqi forces will be kept in US custody pending trial, it says.但是,任何美国军人被逮捕或拘留的伊拉克部队将继续处于美军的关押候审,它说。 In the future, US forces will not be able to arrest Iraqis without Iraqi approval, and those detained must be handed over to Iraqi authorities within 24 hours, requirements that could potentially complicate military operations, Michael Matheson, a former State Department legal adviser told the hearing.今后,美军将无法被逮捕的伊拉克人没有伊拉克批准,被拘留者必须移交给伊拉克当局在24小时内,要求有可能复杂的军事行动,迈克尔臣,前美国国务院法律顾问告诉听证会。 (Editing by Vicki Allen) (编辑的维基阿伦) Have Your Say: US lawmaker accuses Bush of secrecy over Iraq deal 你说:美国国会议员指责布什在伊拉克保密协议 Please read our请仔细阅读我们的 posting guidelines before posting张贴在发布前的指导方针 . 。 Alternatively或者 you can discuss this report here你可以讨论这份报告在这里 . 。 Related News 相关新闻
