The US has made it clear that it will not accept a president close to Hezbollah or Syria. While America will not bargain with Syria over the election, it would probably accept a candidate with whom Syria feels comfortable, provided he is acceptable across the political spectrum.
美国已经表明，它不会接受一个与真主党或者叙利亚亲近的总统。尽管美国不会与叙利亚在选举问题上谈判，它却可能接受一个叙利亚感到舒服的侯选人，条件是他能够为各方政治势力所接受。
