support back home from several leading opposition Republicans in the House of
Representatives, the lower chamber of Congress.

Pemimpin-pemimpin DUNIA
tiba di St Petersburg
sebelum sidang kemuncak G20 . . .
SitiWanMahani - Pemimpin-pemimpin
DUNIA telah mula tiba di St Petersburg, sebelum sidang kemuncak G20 hujung
minggu ini. Sidang kemuncak ke-7 daripada pemimpin-pemimpin G20 itu diadakan di
Constantine Palace di bandar ini dan keselamatan di sekitarnya adalah ketat. Topik utama perbincangan,
walaupun tidak dalam agenda sidang kemuncak itu, pastinya konflik di Syria.
Terdapat
perasaan yang tidak baik di antara Rusia dan Amerika Syarikat sejak konflik di
Syria. Obama telah menarik keluar dari mesyuarat dengan tuan rumah Putin
satu-satu selepas Moscow telah memberikan kepada Edward Snowden perlindungan
sementara. G20 telah ditubuhkan untuk membincangkan isu-isu ekonomi dan
kewangan global - jadi pembaharuan perbankan, cukai dan perdagangan secara
rasmi apa yang semua orang di sana untuk bercakap mengenainya.
WORLD
leaders arrive in St Petersburg ahead of G20 summit
WORLD
leaders have begun arriving in St Petersburg, ahead of this weekend's G20
summit. The 7th summit of the G20 leaders is being held at the city's
Constantine Palace and security around it is tight. The main topic of
discussion, although not on the summit agenda, is sure to be the conflict in
Syria.
There
is bad feeling between Russia and the US over the conflict in Syria. Obama had
already pulled out of a one-to-one meeting with host Putin after Moscow granted
Edward Snowden temporary asylum. The G20 was set up to discuss global financial
and economic issues - so banking reform, taxes and trade are officially what
everyone's there to talk about.
