以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡周三表示，存在“严重疑点”，即外国投入巨额资金试图影响上周议会选举的结果。数小时前，以色列中央选举委员会刚刚认证了选举结果。
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday there were “serious suspicions” that foreign countries had spent large sums of money to influence the results of last week’s parliamentary elections, hours after Israel’s Central Elections Committee certified the outcome.
据以色列《新消息报》报道，内塔尼亚胡在录制的一份声明中说：“存在严重疑点，即外国动用巨额资金干预，以影响以色列国的选举结果。”他没有点名任何国家，也没有提供证据来证实这一指控。
“There are serious suspicions of foreign countries intervening with enormous sums of money to influence the election results in the State of Israel,” Netanyahu said in a recorded statement, according to the Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth. He did not name any countries or present evidence to substantiate the allegation.
内塔尼亚胡说，中央选举委员会主席诺姆·索尔伯格已指示国内安全机构辛贝特展开调查，并呼吁排除一切阻碍调查的障碍。他说：“我们必须查明全部真相，不得掩盖，不得拖延。”
Netanyahu said Central Elections Committee Chairman Noam Sohlberg had instructed the Shin Bet domestic security agency to investigate and called for any obstacles to the inquiry to be removed. “We must get to the full truth, without a cover-up and without delay,” he said.
选举委员会周三早些时候表示，未发现任何违规情况表明投票的公正性受到损害或结果被篡改。另外，辛贝特告知该委员会，需要进一步调查以确定疑似外国资助和影响活动的规模。
The election committee said earlier Wednesday that it had found no irregularities indicating that the integrity of the vote had been compromised or the results altered. Separately, the Shin Bet told the committee that it needed to investigate further to establish the scale of the suspected foreign funding and influence efforts.
内塔尼亚胡还再次呼吁组建一个由他领导的广泛政府，囊括其阵营中的所有政党以及任何愿意加入的犹太复国主义政党。
Netanyahu also renewed his call for a broad government under his leadership that would include all parties in his bloc and any Zionist parties willing to join.
他指责反对派领导人试图组建一个依赖“伊斯兰政党”的少数派政府，并声称这些政党“支持恐怖主义”。他发表上述言论之际，总统伊萨克·赫尔佐格开始与议会各党派磋商，以决定授权谁组建下一届政府。
He accused opposition leaders of seeking to form a minority government reliant on “Islamist parties,” which he alleged “support terrorism.”His remarks came as President Isaac Herzog began consultations with parliamentary factions on whom to task with forming the next government.
内塔尼亚胡阵营在10月27日的选举中赢得53个席位，而与“亚沙尔”党领导人加迪·艾森科特结盟的反对党赢得48席。“联合名单”党和“拉阿姆”党（又称联合阿拉伯名单）共赢得19席。两大主要阵营均未获得在120席的议会中占多数所需的61席。
Netanyahu’s bloc won 53 seats in the Oct. 27 election, while opposition parties aligned with Yashar leader Gadi Eisenkot won 48. The Joint List and Ra’am, also known as the United Arab List, won 19 seats. Neither of the two main blocs secured the 61 seats needed for a majority in the 120-seat Knesset.
据以色列《新消息报》报道，在周三的磋商中，宗教犹太复国主义和极端正统派沙斯党推荐了内塔尼亚胡，而“以色列是我们的家园”党支持艾森科特。拉姆党决定在周四与赫尔佐格会面之前推荐艾森科特。
During Wednesday’s consultations, Religious Zionism and the ultra-Orthodox Shas party recommended Netanyahu, while Yisrael Beiteinu backed Eisenkot, the Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth reported. Ra’am decided to recommend Eisenkot ahead of its meeting with Herzog on Thursday.
