吉拉德总理公布新内阁名单 果然没有陆克文

吉拉德总理公布了新内阁名单，果然不出所料，并没有陆克文的名字。

可以想象昨晚两人自“政变”以来的首次交谈会是什么样的情景。

从新闻报道来看，陆克文并没有婉拒，但吉拉德可能根本就没有邀他入阁。

只是表示，今年的联邦大选工党如果能够连任，她愿意给陆克文提供一个内阁部长职务。

不知道交谈的当时，熟知中国文化的陆克文脑海中浮现的是“士可杀不可辱”，还是“大丈夫能屈能伸”的古训。。。

Ms Gillard said on Monday she would offer Mr Rudd a cabinet position in a re-elected Labor government.

He said decisions on cabinet appointments were a matter for the prime minister, which he respected.

"For the immediate future, my family and I have decided to take a break," he said.
