据彭博新闻社电，法国总统萨科齐日前在靠近德国边境的阿尔萨斯发表讲话时出现口误，说自己身在“德国”。萨科齐迅速更正了自己，不过听众发出了笑声，随后开始起哄。阿尔萨斯是法国二战后从纳粹德国手中夺回的领土。 |
| French kings annexed Alsace in the 17th century, though most inhabitants continued to speak a German dialect. Germany took Alsace after the Franco-Prussian War in 1870. France won it back in WWI. Germany formally annexed it after overrunning France in 1940 before French and US troops liberated most of the border region in late 1944. |
17世纪时，法兰西国王宣布阿尔萨斯为法国领土，不过当地大多居民之后仍然说德语。1870年，普鲁士赢得普法战争，阿尔萨斯继而划归德国。一战德国战败，法国收回阿尔萨斯，但1940年德国再次抢夺。直到1944年冬法美联军击败德国，阿尔萨斯才一直归于法国版图。
