President Barack Obama condemned Russia's intervention in Ukraine Wednesday as a "brazen assault" on the country's integrity and assured Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia that NATO would defend them against any aggression by Moscow. "First we will defend our NATO allies and that means every ally. In this alliance there are no old members or new members, no junior partners or senior partners. They're just allies pure and simple." ____________________ 本周三,美国总统巴拉克`奥巴马谴责俄罗斯干涉乌克兰内务行为是对该国完整性的"无耻攻击",并向爱莎利亚、立陶宛和拉托维亚承诺,北约组织将保护他们免受俄方的任一侵犯."首先,我们将保卫包括每一个同盟国在内的北约盟友.在此联盟中,无论新旧,不分高低,我们皆是简单纯粹的盟友."______________
