奧巴馬表示如果普京溺水 自己絕對會救他

It's official: even though they are involved in the worst East-West clash since the Cold War, Barack Obama would save Vladimir Putin from drowning.

美國總統(tǒng)奧巴馬正式回應(yīng)了!雖然俄美兩國著自冷戰(zhàn)以來東西方最嚴重的沖突，但奧巴馬還是表示如果俄羅斯總統(tǒng)普京溺水，他一定會救的。

Obama on Friday delivered his answer to a question posed to Putin during a live television appearance earlier this month -- would his US rival come to his rescue?

本月早些時候，普京總統(tǒng)在參加一次電視直播活動的時候遭遇這樣的提問：“如果你掉到水里，奧巴馬會救你嗎?” 本周五，奧巴馬總統(tǒng)也給出了自己的回應(yīng)。

Putin answered by saying that though he did not have a special personal relationship with Obama he thought the US leader was "a decent and brave person." "And of course, he would."

普京總統(tǒng)當時的回答是，自己雖然和奧巴馬沒有非常密切的私人關(guān)系，但奧巴馬是個“勇敢的正派人” ，所以“當然會救我”。

In a rare moment of humour at an alarming moment of the Ukraine crisis, Obama confirmed he would indeed throw the Russian leader a lifeline, when questioned by a US journalist.

俄美雙方因為烏克蘭局勢關(guān)系緊張，在這樣的情況下奧巴馬總統(tǒng)還是表示了自己的幽默。當被一位美國記者問到這個問題時，奧巴馬證實自己會救俄羅斯領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人普京。

"I absolutely would save Mr Putin if he were drowning," Obama said. "If anybody is out there drowning, I would save them. "

“如果普京溺水，我絕對會救他，” 奧巴馬說，“任何人溺水我都會施救。”

"I used to be a pretty good swimmer, I grew up in Hawaii," Obama said, before adding with a rueful smile: "I am a little bit out of practice."

“我從前是個游泳好手，我在夏威夷長大，” 奧巴馬這樣回答道，但他又帶著略抱憾的微笑補充說：“不過我有點疏于練習(xí)了。”

Even before the Ukraine showdown, Putin and Obama had a difficult relationship and had endured several photo-ops after summits noted for stilted body language.

不過就算是在烏克蘭一觸即發(fā)的局勢之前，普京和奧巴馬兩位總統(tǒng)的關(guān)系也不太好，在幾次峰會拍到的合照都可以看到姿勢僵硬。
