P.S.请注意美式写法，尤其是缩写~~~In Yemen, last month' successful presidential election and inauguration were promising steps on the path toward a new chapter in Yemen's history.  The U.S. will support Yemen as it continues its multi-year transition, convenes a national dialogue, reforms its constitution, refines its political process, and identifies solutions for its security and humanitarian challenges.  
The regime violence and killing of civilians in Syria continues to worsen.  The international community, said Secretary Clinton, "should say with one voice – without hesitation or caveat – that the killing of innocent Syrians must stop and a political transition must begin."  The Syrian people deserve the same opportunity to shape their future that the Tunisians, Egyptians, Libyans, and Yemenis now enjoy.
The broader job of the international community is to assist democratic transitions all across the Middle East and North Africa.  The United Nations must support the building blocks of stable, thriving societies: a responsive, accountable government, a free-market economy, and a vibrant civil society.  Moreover, women must be included in all aspects of society.
"We, as a community of nations," said Secretary Clinton, "must help the people of the Middle East and North Africa make the most of the rights and freedoms for which they have risked so much."
