Obama Seeks 'New Beginning' for US, Muslims
奥巴马寻求美国和穆斯林的新开始
This is IN THE NEWS in VOA Special English.
President Obama is calling for new efforts toward progress in peace talks between Israelis and Palestinians. He says "each side is going to have to make some difficult compromises." But he pointed to his recent talks with leaders on both sides. And he noted that George Mitchell, his special diplomat for the Middle East, is going back next week.
BARACK OBAMA: "I think given what we have done so far, we have at least created the space, the atmosphere in which talks can restart."
President Obama spoke Friday in Germany, part of a European visit to remember the Allied invasion on D-Day, June sixth, nineteen forty-four. He met with Chancellor Angela Merkel in Dresden. Later they visited the remains of the Nazi death camp at Buchenwald. The president's great uncle was part of American forces who liberated the camp. The murder of six million Jews in the Holocaust led to the creation of Israel.
Friday's visit came a day after President Obama gave a speech in Egypt directed to the world's more than one billion Muslims. At Cairo University he called for a new beginning between the United States and Muslims around the world. He said they should work together to stop extremism and support peace.
