Pakistan's Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani has rejected accusations that Pakistan was either complicit in helping to hide Osama Bin Laden or guilty of incompetence in failing to find him. Speaking to parliament, Mr Gilani said an investigation would be launched into how the al-Qaeda leader remained undetected in the Pakistani garrison city of Abbottabad until he was killed in an American raid a week ago. From Abbottabad, Aleem Maqbool reports.
巴基斯坦总理优素福．拉扎．吉拉尼(Yusuf Raza Gilani)否认了巴基斯坦政府同谋窝藏本拉登和政府未能找到拉登而失职等的指控。吉拉尼在向议会发表讲话时称，他们将调查为何基地组织领导人藏匿在巴基斯坦要塞阿伯塔巴德一直未被发现，直到一周前在美军突袭中被击毙。来自阿伯塔巴德，Aleem Maqbool报道。

Prime Minister Gilani spoke with passion as he talked of the sacrifices Pakistan had made in the so-called "war on terror". He mentioned the many thousands of civilian and military deaths here and said his country looked to no one for recognition. But what of the key question: how could Osama Bin Laden had been living here, a city with such a large military and intelligence presence, without the authorities knowing or even supporting him? He gave no new specifics about what he did know of Bin Laden's time here in Abbottabad, only saying an investigation would be launched. So many wanted to hear so much more.
充满激情的巴基斯坦总理吉拉尼地表示，巴基斯坦在“反恐战争”中做出了巨大的牺牲。他提到成千上万的平民和军人的死亡，他表示，他的国家不需要任何人的认同。但是关键问题是：本．拉登是如何藏匿在这样一个军事和情报设施如此众多的城市，而当局全然不知，甚至为他提供帮助？关于本拉在这里的时间,他没有透露更多新的细节，只是说将会展开调查。所以许多人希望听到更多的信息。

The Communist Party approved the preliminary measure about two weeks ago behind closed doors as part of a number of reforms.

A major credit rating agency, Standard & Poor's, has downgraded the status of Greek government debt. It took the action after saying it believed there was an increased likelihood that Greece would have to restructure its debts. Our economics correspondent Andrew Walker reports.

The Greek government's financial problems are getting worse. At the weekend, a senior euro area official acknowledged that Greece is likely to need further help. Without it, Greece would have to go back to the markets to borrow next year. It might be impossible, and even if there were willing lenders, the interest rates would be painfully high. In the markets, it is increasingly thought that Greece will in effect default on some of its debts at some stage. Agreeing further help for Greece will be very challenging. There's widespread public hostility to the bailout in other parts of the euro area.
希腊政府的财政问题日益恶化。上周末，欧元区一名高级官员承认希腊可能需要进一步帮助。否则，希腊明年将再次向市场借款。然而，这几乎是不可能的，即使有人愿意借款给他们，利率可能也会非常高。在市场上，越来越多的人认为希腊在某阶段可能会拖欠一些债务。不过，要达成进一步救助希腊的协议也是非常困难的。欧元区其他国家的公众已经非常反对救助活动。
