美国总统奥巴马即将结束对以色列和约旦河西岸的访问,他在访问期间与以色列和巴勒斯坦领导人举行了会谈,并敦促以巴双方恢复和平努力。

奥巴马星期五在参观以色列的大屠杀纪念馆时发表讲话,呼吁人们相互容忍。

奥巴马在前往约旦之前将和以色列总理内塔尼亚胡再次会晤。他们俩人可能讨论奥巴马星期四在耶路撒冷发表的讲演。奥巴马在讲演中说,同巴勒斯坦实现和平是“实现真正安全的唯一途径”。

奥巴马说,以色列领导人必须理解,继续在巴勒斯坦人宣称建国的土地上兴建定居点会起到“反作用”。奥巴马还表示,他相信巴勒斯坦权力机构主席阿巴斯是以色列的真正和平伙伴。

U.S. President Barack Obama is winding down a visit to Israel and the West Bank that has included talks with Israeli and Palestinian leaders and calls for the two sides to resume peace efforts.

Mr. Obama on Friday called for tolerance against others in a visit to Israel's Holocaust memorial.

Mr. Obama and Mr. Netanyahu are expected to have one more meeting before Mr. Obama departs for Jordan. The two men are likely to discuss Mr. Obama's Thursday speech in Jerusalem, where he said peace with the Palestinians is the "only path to true security."

Mr. Obama said Israeli leaders must recognize that "continued settlement activity" on land the Palestinians claim for a state is "counterproductive." Mr. Obama also said he believes Israel has a genuine peace partner in Palestinian President Abbas.
