美國就穆巴拉克立即辭職一事與埃及會談

U.S. officials say the Obama administration is in talks with Egyptian officials on a proposal for Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak to resign immediately, and turn power over to a transitional government headed by Vice President Omar Suleiman with the support of the Egyptian military.A senior State Department official said a scenario "under active discussion" is the prospect of Mr. Mubarak stepping down and taking up residence in Sharm el-Sheikh, on the Red Sea at the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula.

Mr. Mubarak has recently said he will not go into exile and wants to die on Egyptian soil.

U.S. officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the talks with Egypt include a proposal for a transitional government to invite members from opposition groups, including the banned Muslim Brotherhood, to begin work on opening the country's electoral system for free and fair elections in September.

美國官員表示，奧巴馬政府與埃及官員舉行會談，討論埃及總統穆巴拉克立即辭職，並將權力移交給得到軍方支持的副總統蘇萊曼領導的臨時政府的提議。美國國務院一位高級官員說，他們正在“積極討論”的一種可能情況是，穆巴拉克下臺並移居紅海南端西奈半島上的沙姆沙伊赫。

穆巴拉克最近說，他不會流亡。他希望死在埃及的土地上。

沒有透露姓名的美國官員們說，美國與埃及的會談包括一個提議，內容是過渡政府廣泛邀請包括被取締的穆斯林兄弟會在內的反對派組織成員，開始致力於開放埃及的選舉體系，準備在9月舉行自由公平選舉。
