家园 就是挪威政府担心气候变化使得挪威不得不需要外来帮助

What was fascinating about the session is that the three countries that were presenting —Cambodia, Sierra Leone and Norway — aren’t countries that we immediately think of as having the largest natural disasters in recent years. In fact, Norway has been on the giving, not receiving, end of aid for many years. However, because of climate change, Norway believes it is important to have something in place should they need outside assistance. (Hurricane Katrina was cited, among others, as an unexpected disaster for a country that traditionally has not needed outside assistance).

就是我在前文引用中加黑的那句话啊:因为气候变化,挪威相信如果他们需要外来帮助的时候,手里有些什么东西很重要。这里should they need outside assitance很明显是指挪威遭遇大的自然灾害自己无法应付,需要国际援助的情况。而后面括号里就举出了卡特琳娜飓风作例子,那就是说假如挪威遭到类似卡特琳娜飓风一样的事情嘛。

前面两个说我看不懂英文的,很明显是他们自己只看懂了英语单词的意思,没有明白这两个句子到底是在说什么,或者故意装糊涂啦,呵呵。

最关键是,挪威政府捐款给Mercy Corps是有要求回报的,这样当然可以对纳税人交待。那么挪威政府捐款给克林顿,是为了什么呢?真的有人相信挪威政府就是因为钱太多了,所以要当散财童子吗?就算真的要当散财童子,也要问为啥把钱散给克林顿,而没有散给别人呢?
