**克里:不要在谈判之际对伊朗实施新制裁**
星期三,美国国务卿克里将告诫国会议员们,在国际社会继续就伊朗核项目进行谈判之际,不要对伊朗实行新制裁。
按照预定日程,克里星期三将向美国国会参议院财政委员会通报有关情况。美国国务院发言人说,克里将指出此时对伊朗实行新制裁会是一个错误。

US Carrier Group to Arrive in Philippines Wednesday
The USS George Washington arrives Wednesday in the typhoon-hit central Philippines to help bring aid to many remain who remain desperate for food and other basic necessities.
The aircraft carrier is helping rush emergency supplies to the city of Tacloban, which was almost completely destroyed Friday by one of the strongest typhoons ever recorded.
The carrier is part of a team of ships that will be able to produce millions of liters of drinking water daily. They are also carrying helicopters and other special aircraft needed to bring life-saving supplies to remote areas.
