The US attorney-general Eric Holder has said the Department of Justice will conduct a swift investigation into the death of Eric Garner, an unarmed black man who died during an arrest in New York. Mr. Holder said federal charges would be brought if appropriate. On Wednesday, thousands took to the streets of New York following the decision of a grand jury not to prosecute a white police officer who applied a stranglehold on Mr. Garner. President Obama said many Americans feel deep unfairness with the US criminal justice system.
美国司法部长Eric Holder已经称司法部将一名死于纽约一段逮捕期间的手无寸铁的黑人男子Eric Garner展开一项迅速调查。Holder先生称如果合适的话将提起指控。在星期三,数千人走向纽约街头抗议大陪审团决定的不对掐住Garner先生脖子的白人警察提起控告。奥巴马总统表示,许多美国人深感美国的刑事司法系统的不公平。
“When it comes as we've seen unfortunately in recent days toward our criminal justice system, too many Americans feel deep unfairness when it comes to the gap between our professed ideals and how our laws are applied on the day-to-day basis.”
“当我们看到近些日子我们的刑事司法系统发生的不幸,当发生我们所声称的理想和每日法律的如何应用之间的差距时,许多美国人深感不公平。”
President Putin has accused the west of seeking to dismember Russia and using the crisis in Ukraine as an excuse for imposing sanctions on Moscow. In his annual state-of-the-nation speech, Mr. Putin also strongly defended Moscow's annexation of Crimea and its actions in eastern Ukraine. The US Secretary of State John Kerry said the outside world wasn't seeking confrontation, and that Moscow could rebuild trust by stopping its support to the pro-Russian fighters in eastern Ukraine.
俄罗斯总统Putin已经指责西方世界试图分裂俄罗斯,并利用乌克兰的危机作为对莫斯科实施制裁的一个借口。在他每年的对全国民众发表的讲话中,Putin先生还强烈地捍卫莫斯科吞并克里米亚的行为以及俄罗斯在乌克兰东部的行动。美国国务卿John Kerry称外界并不寻求冲突,而莫斯科可以重建信任,通过停止对乌克兰东部亲俄罗斯战士的支持。
The governing body of European football has banned Crimean teams from playing games organized by Russia. The UEFA ruling will come into effect in January. Three teams from Crimea have been playing in a lower-level Russian league this season following Russia's annexation of the Ukrainian peninsula. The rules of international football say clubs may only become affiliated to associations outside their original country if all sides consent to it.
欧洲足球管理机构已经禁止克里米亚球队参加由俄罗斯组织的比赛。UEFA的裁决将于明年1月份生效。在俄罗斯吞并乌克兰的克里米亚半岛之后,来自克里米亚的三支球队已经参加了本赛季俄罗斯联邦举行的较低水平的比赛。国际足联的规定称只有在所有各方同意下,该俱乐部才能加入原来国籍之外的联盟。
The Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe has accused elements of the ruling Zanu-PF Party of plotting to oust him. He told his party's conference that an attempt had been made to bribe delegates to depose him as leader. Here's Noth Motheco.
津巴布韦总统Robert Mugabe已经指控执政的Zanu-PF党阴谋推翻他的统治。他在党派的会议上说有人试图贿赂代表以推翻他的领导权。Noth Motheco报道。
“It's been a brutal two weeks for many Zanu-PF members. Some have been expelled, others sidelined. But the one man who remains at the helm and still very much in control is Robert Mugabe. He arrived at Congress with his wife Grace by his side to stamp his authority on the delegates. On Saturday, President Mugabe is expected to make an announcement on who will take over as vice president. There is a speculation that he may want to keep Zimbabwe's leadership in the family by appointing his wife.”
“对Zanu-PF党的许多成员来说这是非常残忍的两周。一些人已经被驱逐,其他人被排挤。但是仍然掌权,仍然控制着形势的是Robert Mugabe。他的妻子一旁陪伴着他抵达国会宣告他对代表们的权威。在星期六,Mugabe总统预计将作出宣布谁将接替副总统的职位。有猜测称他将通过委任他的妻子来保持津巴布韦的领导权。

“The Commission has established the world's largest DNA testing facility. It's helped to identify 70% of the 40,000 people who went missing during the Balkans conflicts of the 1990s. Over the past decade, that work has spreaded around the world. The Commission was involved in Thailand following the 2004 tsunami and more recently, in Iraq, Libya and Mexico. But until now, it hasn't had a formal international role. That will change in a fortnight when five European countries led by Britain and the Netherlands sign an international treaty.”
