The United Nations General Assembly overwhelmingly backed a bid by Palestine to become a full U.N. member Friday, recommending the U.N. Security Council "reconsider the matter favorably."
本周五，联合国大会以压倒性多数票支持巴勒斯坦成为联合国正式成员国的申请，并建议联合国安理会“重新积极地考虑有关事项”。
The vote serves as a global survey of support, after the United States vetoed the idea in the U.N. Security Council a month prior.
在美国于一个月前在联合国安理会否决了这一决议草案之后，此次投票是一项对支持该决议的全球调查。
The Palestinian push for full U.N. membership comes seven months into a war between Israel and Palestinian militants Hamas in the Gaza Strip,
在以色列和巴勒斯坦激进组织哈马斯在加沙地带爆发战争七个月后，巴勒斯坦在积极推动成为联合国正式成员国，
and as Israel is expanding settlements in the occupied West Bank, which the U.N. considers to be illegal.
而以色列正在巴勒斯坦被占领的约旦河西岸领土上扩建定居点，联合国认为这是非法的。
"We want peace, we want freedom."
“我们要和平，我们要自由。”
Palestinian U.N. Ambassador Riyad Mansour spoke to the assembly before the vote:
巴勒斯坦驻联合国大使里亚德·曼苏尔在投票前对联合国大会表示：
"A yes vote is a vote for Palestinian existence, it is not against any state.
“投‘支持’票是支持巴勒斯坦的存在，这不是反对任何国家。
It is an investment in peace, and thus empowers the forces of peace."
这是对和平的投资，并将增强和平的力量。”
Meanwhile, Israel's Ambassador to the United Nations Gilad Erdan, who spoke after Mansour, accused the assembly of shredding the U.N. Charter:
而以色列驻联合国大使吉拉德·埃尔丹在曼苏尔发表讲话后指责联合国大会破坏了《联合国宪章》。
"You are shredding the U.N. Charter with your own hands. Yes, yes. That's what you're doing. Shredding the U.N. Charter. Shame on you."
“你们正在亲手撕毁《联合国宪章》。是的，是的。这就是你们在做的。撕碎《联合国宪章》。你们真可耻。”
The vote by the General Assembly Friday does not give the Palestinians full U.N. membership, but simply recognizes them as qualified to join.
联合国大会星期五的表决并没有给予巴勒斯坦完全的联合国成员资格，只是承认他们有资格加入。
An application to become a full U.N. member first needs to be approved by the 15-member Security Council and then the General Assembly.
申请成为联合国正式成员国，首先需要得到由15个成员国组成的安理会的批准，然后获得联合国大会的批准。
