美国仍然致力于永久摧毁伊拉克和沙姆伊斯兰国以及叙利亚和世界各地的其它恐怖团体。正如我们所说的那样，我们将利用我们国家力量的一切手段来迫使由伊朗撑腰的力量撤出，而对今天会议来说最重要的是，美国将继续推动以尊重叙利亚人民意愿和符合第2254(2015)号决议的方式，和平和通过外交手段解决叙利亚危机。我们将继续与我们的盟友共同努力打击恐怖主义。美国也将与志同道合的国家、联合国以及叙利亚反对派合作，寻求通过外交手段结束冲突。实现这些目标只有一份国际商定路线图，那就是根据第2254（2015）号决议政治解决叙利亚冲突，而执行第2254（2015）号决议的第一步是起草新的叙利亚宪法。
The United States remains committed to the permanent destruction of Islamic State in Iraq and the Sham and other terrorist groups in Syria and around the world. As we have said, we will use all instruments of our national power to press for a withdrawal of Iranian-backed forces and, most importantly for today’s meeting, the United States will continue to advance a peaceful, diplomatic solution to the Syrian crisis in a way that honours the will of the Syrian people and is consistent with resolution 2254 (2015). We will continue to work together with our allies to fight terrorism. The United States will also work with like-minded States, the United Nations and the Syrian opposition to seek a diplomatic end to this conflict. There is only one internationally agreed road map for achieving those goals. It is a political solution to the Syrian conflict, in line with resolution 2254 (2015). And the first step towards the implementation of resolution 2254 (2015) is the creation of a new Syrian constitution.
