美国众议院星期一晚上以391票对0票一致通过无法律约束力的决议，要求伊朗释放被拘押的华盛顿邮报记者瑞赛恩、牧师阿贝迪尼和美国海军陆战队退役人员赫克马蒂等三名美国公民。
华盛顿邮报记者瑞赛恩去年在伊朗被捕，最近以间谍罪受审。阿贝迪尼2012年因主持基督教礼拜而被捕。赫克马蒂是美国海军陆战队退役人员，2011年回伊朗探望祖母时被捕，并被以间谍罪判处死刑，后改为10年徒刑。
众议院决议还要求伊朗提供2007年在伊朗失踪的前联邦调查局特工罗伯特·莱文森的消息。
伊朗与世界六大国有关伊朗核项目的谈判面临6月30日以前达成协议的最后期限，美国议员希望在此之前推动伊朗释放美国公民。
The U.S. House of Representatives has passed, late Monday by a vote of 391-0, a non-binding resolution, calling for Iran to release three American citizens, Washington Post reporter Jason Rezaian, Pastor Saeed Abedini and Amir Hekmati, who have been held in custody.
Rezaian was arrested last year and is on trial on charges of spying. Abedini has been detained since 2012 for leading Christian worship services. Hekmati, a retired U.S. Marine who was arrested in 2011 while visiting his grandmother, was tried and sentenced to death on espionage charges. His sentence has since been reduced to 10 years.
The resolution also calls for Iran to provide information on former FBI agent Robert Levinson, who disappeared in Iran in 2007.
Congressional lawmakers are pushing Iran to release the Americans as the June 30 deadline approaches for Iran to reach a deal with the United States and five other nations over the Islamic regime's nuclear program.
