TOKYO -- The death of Chinese pro-democracy activist Liu Xiaobo could revive talks in the U.S. Congress of renaming the street in front of the Chinese Embassy in Washington after the Nobel Peace Prize laureate.
A bill to change the address of the embassy from "3505 International Place" to "1 Liu Xiaobo Plaza," has been submitted by Senator Ted Cruz several times since 2014, but to date has not passed. When the bill was approved by voice vote in the Senate in February 2016, the Obama White House vetoed the motion.

中国大使館の住所の名前を「
劉 暁波（りゅう ぎょう）広場」にしちゃえ、という法案が何度も提案されている、と。
中国はそんなことしたら米国大使館前のスノウデン通りにするぞ、とか言ってオバマさんが大統領の拒否権を行使していた、と。
