导读:之前，美国FBI曾公布一批文件显示沙特和911袭击事件没有关联。而近日美国国会又公布了一份报告，显示沙特和911恐怖袭击没有直接联系，但是沙特皇室内部人员或给恐怖分子提供过经济支持。
Congress has released previously classified documents about whether the Saudi government had a role in the 9/11 attacks.
美国国会公布了之前经过分类的文件，对于沙特是否参与911袭击事件做出了说明。
The pages show no officials links between the Saudi government and the hijackers who killed nearly 3,000 people in New York.
这些文件显示，沙特政府和在纽约杀死近3000人的劫机者之间没有正式的联系。
However, the report found it was likely that the attackers had financial help from people inside the kingdom.
但是，这份报告发现，袭击者们很有可能从沙特王室内部人员那里得到了经济支持。
An independent panel completed the 9/11 Commission Report in 2002.
一个独立小组在2002年完成了这份《911委员会报告》。
But several pages - informally known as "the 28 Pages" - were withheld from the public for 13 years, fuelling speculation about their contents.
但是这份报告中的几十页--非正式地称为“28页报告”--被隐瞒了长达13年的时间，从而助长了人们对于这份报告内容的猜测。
For years, lawmakers and family members of the 9/11 victims lobbied for their release, arguing the US government was shielding an important ally.
多年来，律师和911受害者的家人们游说公布这份报告，指责美国政府拒而不报是在包庇其重要盟友沙特。
Fifteen of the 19 hijackers who flew planes into the World Trade center and the Pentagon were Saudi nationals.
在驾驶飞机撞向世贸中心和五角大楼的19名劫机者中，有15人是沙特公民。
The released pages were still lightly redacted by the CIA. The report’s original authors cautioned that some of the information contained in "the 28 pages" was unvetted material complied by the FBI.
这次公布的文件还是经过了CIA的编译。这份报告的原作者们警告说，“28页报告”中的部分内容没有经过FBI的审查。
The Saudi government said it welcomed the release of the documents on Friday.
沙特政府表示说他们欢迎在周五公布的这些文件。
The release confirms "neither the Saudi government, nor senior Saudi officials, nor any person acting on behalf of the Saudi government provided any support or encouragement for these attacks,’’ Abdullah Al-Saud, Saudi Arabia’s ambassador to the United States, said in a statement on Friday.
沙特驻美国大使阿卜杜拉亲王在周五的一份声明中说道，这些被公布的文件确认了“沙特政府、沙特高级官员、或者任何代表沙特政府行动的人都没有给这些袭击事件提供任何的支持或鼓励。”
