克里敦促伊拉克建立更具包容性的政府

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is in Iraq on an unannounced visit as the government faces the challenge of countering Sunni Islamist militants who have captured wide areas in the northern and western parts of the country.

Kerry arrived Monday in Baghdad and was scheduled to meet with Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki as well as Sunni and Kurdish leaders.

He will continue U.S. pressure for Mr. Maliki to be more inclusive in his Shi'ite-led government, which has faced criticism for shutting out Sunnis and Kurds and breeding sectarian tensions.

Kerry discussed Iraq and the threat posed by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant - ISIL - as he met Sunday with his counterparts in Egypt and Jordan. He told reporters in Cairo that if Iraqis want a more inclusive government, the United States will help.美國國務卿克里對伊拉克進行一次未經事先宣佈的訪問，目前伊拉克政府面臨着遜尼派伊斯蘭激進分子的挑戰，他們已經奪取了伊拉克北部和西部很多地區。

克里星期一抵達巴格達，將會見伊拉克總理馬利基以及遜尼派和庫爾德領導人。

克里將繼續代表美國政府敦促馬利基加強其以什葉派爲主導的政府的包容性，人們批評伊拉克政府排斥遜尼派和庫爾德人，從而導致教派之間關係緊張。

克里星期日會見埃及和約旦外長時，討論了伊拉克問題以及伊拉克和黎凡特伊斯蘭國構成的威脅。克里在開羅對記者們說，如果伊拉克人想要組建一個更具包容性的政府，美國將提供幫助。
