| French President Nicolas Sarkozy branded Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu "a liar" in a private conversation with U.S. President Barack Obama during last week's G-20 summit in Cannes, Reuters reported. |
據路透社報道，上周在戛納舉行的20國集團峰會上，法國總統尼古拉斯·薩科齊在和美國總統巴拉克·奧巴馬私下交談時稱以色列總理本杰明·內塔尼亞胡為“騙子”。 |
| "I cannot bear Netanyahu, he's a liar," Sarkozy told Obama, unaware that the microphones in their meeting room had been switched on, enabling reporters in a separate location to listen in to a simultaneous translation. |
薩科齊跟奧巴馬說：“我真受不了內塔尼亞胡，他是個騙子。”這時他沒意識到會議室中的麥克風已經打開，別處的記者由此能聽到同傳。 |
| "You're fed up with him, but I have to deal with him even more often than you," Obama replied. |
奧巴馬答道：“你受夠他了，但我和他打交道的頻率遠比你多。” |
|
It was unclear why exactly Sarkozy had criticized Netanyahu.

薩科齊到底為何批評內塔尼亞胡還不清楚。 |
