布希將在全國祈禱日悼念卡特裏娜遇難者 (Bush to Pay Tribute to Hurricane Victims in National Day of Prayer) |
|
|
布希總統星期五將參加在華盛頓舉行的宗教儀式。這是“全國祈禱和懷念卡特裏娜颶風受害者日”活動的一部份。 美國各地的很多教堂計劃舉行紀念儀式，另一些教堂表示已經舉行了哀悼活動。颶風在將近3個星期前吹襲了美國墨西哥灣海岸地區。 災區繼續進行清理工作。星期四，布希總統在災情嚴重的新奧爾良保證展開“世界上前所未有的最大規模的重建行動”。布希沒有對重建開支做出預估，但一些分析人士預計這筆開支將超過已經在阿富汗和伊拉克花費的3千億美元。 |

President Bush is to attend a religious service today in Washington as part of a national day of prayer and remembrance for the victims of Hurricane Katrina. Many churches around the country plan to hold services, but others have said they already have held tributes. Katrina hit the U.S. Gulf Coast nearly three weeks ago. Clean-up continues in the devastated region. Thursday in hard-hit New Orleans, President Bush promised what he called "one of the largest reconstruction efforts the world has ever seen." He gave no cost estimate, but some analysts predict it could exceed the 300-billion dollars already spent on the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. |
