Watch Video: Congressional Standoff on raising debt ceiling

Translation By Lisa Darilis

U.S. president, Barack Obama, warned Republicans in Congress against waiting longer than the proposed six weeks to raise the debt ceiling. Republicans were trying to buy more time.

As the government shutdown enters day 12, unpaid days for employees(or furloughs) are now up to almost five days.

Obama's statements can be viewed on video through the internet.
