新奇事件簿 日本首相安倍晋三到访珍珠港
Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has visited the United States naval base at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. Japan's surprise attack on the base on December 7, 1941 led to the United States joining World War II. Mr Abe did not apologize for the attack but did offer his condolences. He said: "President Obama, the people of the United States of America and the people around the world, as the Prime Minister of Japan, I offer my sincere and everlasting condolences to the souls of those who lost their lives here." Mr Abe also paid tribute to those who died in the attack. He said: "We must never repeat the horrors of war again. This is the solemn vow the people of Japan have taken." President Obama welcomed Mr Abe, "in the spirit of friendship".
日本首相安倍晋三访问了美国夏威夷珍珠港海军基地。1941年12月7日，日本偷袭珍珠港，使美国卷入第二次世界大战。安倍晋三未就袭击道歉，但是表达了哀悼。他说：“奥巴马总统，美国和全世界人民，作为日本首相，我向在这里陨落的灵魂表达最真诚，最持久的悼念。”安倍晋三还向袭击中遇难的人表达敬意。他说：“我们永远不能重蹈战争的覆辙。美国人民庄严发誓。”奥巴马总统充分发扬友谊的精神欢迎安倍晋三。
A total of 353 Japanese aircraft attacked the US base at Pearl Harbor, killing 2,403 US personnel. The 75-minute attack also damaged or destroyed 19 US Navy warships. Mr Abe is the first Japanese leader for decades to visit Pearl Harbor and the first to visit a memorial on the site of the sunken battleship the USS Arizona. Mr Abe acknowledged the US role in rebuilding Japan after WWII. He said: "When the war ended and Japan was a nation in burnt-out ruins as far as the eye could see, suffering miserable poverty, it was the USA and its good people that generously sent us food to eat and clothes to wear." He added that the friendship between the USA and Japan was an everlasting "alliance of hope".
当时共有353架日本飞机偷袭了美国珍珠港基地，造成2403名美国军人遇难。长达75分钟的袭击还损坏或摧毁了19艘美国海军战船。安倍是几十年来访问珍珠港和沉没的亚利桑那号战列舰纪念馆的首位日本领导人。安倍承认美国在第二次世界大战后重建日本的努力中发挥的作用。他说：“战争结束后，日本满目疮痍，异常困窘，美国和友好的美国人们慷慨地为我们提供食物和衣服。”他补充说，日本和美国之间的友谊是不朽的“希望的联盟”。
