Venezuela is where we start today's show. The South American country is having a major political crisis and seeing violent protests against the government. Now, President Nicolas Maduro wants to rewrite the country's constitution.
今天的首要新聞是委內(nèi)瑞拉。南美國家委內(nèi)瑞拉目前面臨重大政治危機,并出現(xiàn)反政府的暴力抗議。目前,委內(nèi)瑞拉總統(tǒng)尼古拉斯·馬杜羅想要修改該國憲法。
Venezuela's government has one legislative branch. It's called the National Assembly. Since an election in 2015, it's been controlled by the party that opposes that of President Maduro.
委內(nèi)瑞拉政府擁有一個被稱為“國民議會”的立法機構(gòu)。自2015年大選后,國民議會一直由反對馬杜羅總統(tǒng)的政黨控制。
In late March, Venezuela's supreme court took away the National Assembly's powers. That put the government under the control of Maduro's own socialist party. And he just called for a new legislative branch to be created, what he calls the constituent national assembly.
三月下旬,委內(nèi)瑞拉最高法院剝奪了國民議會的權(quán)力。這使得政府被馬杜羅所在的社會黨全權(quán)掌控。馬杜羅呼吁成立一個新的立法機構(gòu),他稱其為“制憲國民大會”。
It would include about 500 people, some of whom would be elected. It would rewrite Venezuela's constitution and reshape the president's powers. A large crowd of Maduro's supporters seem to welcome the announcement. But in other parts of the country, protesters were out in force.
制憲國民大會將由500人組成,其中一些席位將由選舉得出。這將修改該國的憲法,重塑總統(tǒng)的權(quán)力。大批馬杜羅的支持者似乎都對這一聲明表示歡迎。但該國的其他地區(qū)則爆發(fā)了抗議。
The leader of the current National Assembly called Maduro's plans a fraud and coup against the current Venezuelan constitution. He asked people to rebel and refuse to accept it.
國民議會現(xiàn)任領(lǐng)袖稱馬杜羅的計劃是“一個騙局”,是違反委內(nèi)瑞拉現(xiàn)行憲法的行為。他要求民眾進(jìn)行反抗,拒絕接受這項計劃。
The last time the Venezuelan government did something like this was under former President Hugo Chavez in 1999. This time, skyrocketing prices, food and medical shortages and a severe recession are threatening Venezuelans.
上次委內(nèi)瑞拉政府做出類似事件還是1999年前總統(tǒng)烏戈·查韋斯(Hugo Chavez)執(zhí)政期間。而這一次,委內(nèi)瑞拉民眾面臨物價飛漲、食品藥品短缺以及嚴(yán)重的經(jīng)濟衰退的威脅。
