肯尼亚一名男子用牲畜作为彩礼,向美国国务卿希拉里.克林顿的女儿切尔西求婚。克林顿国务卿说,是否接受这个求婚要由切尔西本人决定。这名肯尼亚男子早在2000年就写信给当时的美国总统比尔.克林顿,提出用40头山羊和20头牛的彩礼向切尔西求婚。

星期四在内罗毕举行的市政厅会议上,主持人问克林顿国务卿对于这个求婚是否有新的回应。克林顿国务卿说,她的女儿“非常独立”,但她将向切尔西转告“这个非常友好的提议”。

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says it will be up to her daughter Chelsea whether to accept a Kenyan man’s offer of livestock in return for Chelsea’s hand in marriage.The Kenyan man’s offer of 40 goats and 20 cows was first made in 2000, in a letter to Secretary Clinton’s husband, then-president Bill Clinton.

At a town hall meeting in Nairobi Thursday, the mediator asked for a fresh response to the proposal.Clinton said her daughter is “very independent,” but added that she will pass along what she called the “very kind offer.”
