希拉里·克林顿说明使用私人邮箱处理公务一事
Hillary Rodham Clinton, a 2016 U.S. presidential contender, on Tuesday defended her use of personal email account for official communications, saying it was "for convenience" and "allowed".
周二，2016年美国总统竞选者之一的希拉里·克林顿公开说明在任职国务卿期间使用私人电子邮箱账号处理公务引发的热议。她声称已经经过允许而且此举更为方便。
However, she also told a hastily arranged press conference here after addressing a UN meeting on gender equality that "it would've been better" and "smarter" to use two separate devices for her personal and work email accounts.
但在联合国一场就男女平等的会议上发表演讲后，她对这里仓促安排的新闻发布会表示当时如果使用两部独立手机和两个电子邮箱账号就更为明智。
The former U.S. secretary of state also said there were no security breaches of her personal email server, which will remain private.
前美国国务卿还表示她的个人电子邮件并没有造成安全隐患泄漏并仍将处于保密状态。
This is her first encounter with a large group of press in five months, following a political event in the U.S. state of Iowa last September.
继去年9月美国爱荷华州的一场政治活动后，这是她在5个月内首次面对如此大批的记者。
