The United Nations Security Council has unanimously adopted a resolution calling for international investigators to be given safe and unrestricted access to the site where the downed Malaysian airliner crashed in east Ukraine. Russia, which could have vetoed the resolution because of misgivings about its wording, did eventually vote in favor avoiding an international outcry. The US ambassador to the UN Samantha Power said Russia could have done more at an earlier stage to secure the crash site.
聯(lián)合國安理會成員一致同意呼吁確保國際調(diào)查組在烏克蘭東部馬航飛機失事地區(qū)的安全和出入權(quán)限。俄羅斯本想否決這一決議但迫于擔憂其措辭產(chǎn)生一系列后果,最終投了贊成票避免了國際社會的輿論抨擊。美國駐聯(lián)合國大使Samantha Power說俄羅斯在事故發(fā)生的早些階段本可以很好保護墜毀現(xiàn)場。
If Russia generally believe that Ukraine was involved in the shoot-down of Flight 17, surely President Putin would have told the separatists, many of whose leaders are from Russia, to guard the evidence at all cost, to maintain a forensically pure, hermetically sealed crime scene. We welcome Russia's support for today's resolution, but no resolution would have been necessary have Russia used its leverage with the separatists on Thursday, getting in to lay down their arms and leave the site to international experts.
俄羅斯內(nèi)部人士也普遍認為烏克蘭與M17飛機的墜毀有關(guān)的話,俄羅斯總統(tǒng)普京應該會通知南部分裂分子保護好現(xiàn)場證據(jù),維持原狀。因為南部分裂分子中有許多是俄羅斯人。我們很高興俄羅斯能同意這項決議,如果俄羅斯利用其對南部分裂分子影響告誡他們要保護好現(xiàn)場,維持原狀,放下武器交給國際調(diào)查小組進行管理的話,那么也就沒有費盡周折通過這項決議的必要了。
The train carrying most of the 298 victims is heading to the city of Kharkiv, where the remains will be handed over to Dutch authorities. The Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak said the black boxes from the crashed plane will be handed over to Malaysian authorities in Ukraine.
一輛載有遇難者遺體的火車開往哈爾科夫,屆時遺體將轉(zhuǎn)交荷蘭當局。馬來西亞總理Najib Razak表示說失事飛機黑匣子將在烏克蘭轉(zhuǎn)交給馬來西亞當局。
Russia and Ukraine continue to dispute on what had led to the downing of the Malaysian plane. In response to Ukrainian accusations that it was shot down with an anti-aircraft missile supplied by Russia, Moscow has denied that it's armed pro-Russia separatists in eastern Ukraine with surface-to-air missiles or any other weapons. Danny Abberheart reports.
俄羅斯和烏克蘭還在繼續(xù)爭論是什么導致了馬航飛機的墜毀。莫斯科回應烏克蘭控告擊中馬航飛機導彈來自俄羅斯防空導彈時說,俄羅斯沒有在親俄分裂分子聚集的烏克蘭東部部署地面發(fā)射導彈或任何其他武器。Danny Abberheart為您報道。
At a briefing in Moscow, Russian Defence Ministry officials showed radar images, saying Russia's air traffic control had detected a Ukrainian warplane flying within three to five kilometers of the Malaysian airliner before it crashed. Without labeling a direct accusation, a Russian official says such fighter planes were usually armed with air-to-air missiles that could bring down another aircraft at that range. The Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko calls such allegations irresponsible and false.
在莫斯科的新聞發(fā)布會上,俄羅斯國防部長公布了雷達影像,并說俄羅斯的空中監(jiān)管機制檢測到烏克蘭一架戰(zhàn)機曾經(jīng)在馬航飛機失事前在其三到五千米的范圍內(nèi)飛行。雖然沒有明確表明指控,但俄羅斯官員說,這種戰(zhàn)斗機通常配備空中導彈這樣可以縮短與另一個飛機的飛行距離。烏克蘭總統(tǒng)對這一講話表示不負責任和虛假指控。

The global Islamic group, the Organization of Islamic Conference has condemned the treatment of Christians by ISIS in the Iraqi city of Mosul as an intolerable crime. The head of the OIC Iyad Madani said the forced displacement of Christians in the city showed that the Jihadist group had nothing to do with Islam and its principles of tolerance and coexistence.

The City of London, another major financial center, has been awashed with allegations about traders colluding to manipulate exchange rates, using Internet chat rooms to share information. The US Department of Justice has already launched a criminal investigation. In the UK, the Serious Fraud Office has issued a brief statement confirming that it too is investigating fraud in the foreign exchange market. Though there are no precise details about the allegations or the individuals, the repercussions of any wrong doing could be very significant particularly in London which is the world's foreign exchange hub.
倫敦作為重要的金融中心被指控交易人員利用互聯(lián)網(wǎng)聊天室共同謀劃操控交易匯率而受重創(chuàng)。美國司法部已經(jīng)開始對其進行刑事調(diào)查。英國嚴重欺詐辦公室在發(fā)表的一個簡短聲明中表示也已經(jīng)開始了對外匯交易所的調(diào)查。盡管目前為止還沒有有價值的線索指控其犯罪,但是任何微小的失誤都會給倫敦造成巨大影響,因為這里同樣是世界交易的中心。
The governor of Texas Rick Perry had said he would deploy up to 1,000 National Guard troops on the state's border with Mexico. Mr. Perry said the troops were needed to fight an increase in the numbers of unaccompanied children mostly from Central America try to cross the border.

The government of Ivory Coast has launched a system to improve transparency in the diamond trade following the lifting of a United Nations embargo in April. Efforts will also be made to improve conditions and pay for diamond minors, who often lose out to middlemen. The Ivorian Minister of Mine said now it was the time for development diamonds, not blood diamond, the term used to describe the way demand helped to fund conflict.
