Private Bradley Manning was arrested in May 2010. The 24-year-old from Oklahoma is accused of leaking hundreds of thousands of classified documents to the Wikileaks website while working as a US army analyst in Iraq. There are 22 separate charges against him for distributing state secrets and aiding the enemy. At a pre-trial hearing, defence lawyers said the soldier was emotionally troubled and that the government had failed him, but prosecutors described the evidence against Manning as irrefutable.

The Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan is holding talks with trade union leaders as a nationwide strike threatens to shut down the country's oil industry. It's the first time the president has become directly involved since the industrial action began four days ago. Mark Lobel reports from Lagos.

The threat by the main oil and gas union to disrupt oil production could be a tipping point in the dispute over a recent doubling of petrol prices. The union workers announced the action after the government removed a subsidy on fuel, which has badly affected transportation costs and Nigeria's informal economy. Any oil shutdown would seriously damage the Nigerian economy as it accounts for 80% of state revenues.
主要的油气工会威胁要扰乱石油生产，这可能是对近期石油价格翻倍的一个警告。工会工人在政府取消燃油补贴后宣布此举，取消补贴已严重影响运输成本和尼日利亚经济。石油业占国民收入的80%，一旦石油停产，将严重影响尼日利亚经济。

Roman Catholic bishops in the Democratic Republic of Congo have denounced the recent elections which gave President Joseph Kabila another term in office. A statement issued by the bishops complains of cheating, lies and terror. Grant Ferrett reports.
刚果民主共和国的罗马天主教大主教谴责最近的选举，使总统Joseph Kabila又获得一个任期。大主教发表声明，责怪其中满是欺骗、谎言和恐怖。Grant Ferrett报道。

The Congolese bishops are unstinting in their criticism of November's presidential election. They point to violence and irregularities, and call on the election commission to correct what they call serious errors or resign. Congo's most senior Roman Catholic clergyman, the Archbishop of Kinshasa Cardinal Laurent Monsengwo, has gone still further. He's urging foreign governments not to recognise Mr Kabila as president, and he's planning what he says will be a non-violent protest next month.
刚果大主教极力批评11月的总统选举，称选举使用了暴力和不法手段，要求选举委员会要么纠正他们所谓的严重错误，要么就辞职。刚果最资深的罗马天主教牧师，金沙萨红衣主教Laurent Monsengwo提出了进一步要求，他呼吁外国政府不要承认Kabila做总统，他还计划下月举行非暴力抗议。

A Moroccan rap singer who made his name criticising the power of the monarchy has been released after serving four months in prison for assault. As he was released, Mouad Belrhouat, better known as al-Haqed, said he would carry on performing in protest at what he called the contempt ordinary Moroccans suffer at the hands of the state. The trial was seen as an early test of the Islamist party now leading the government and its commitment to ensuring the independence of the judiciary.
一名因批评执政当局而出名的摩洛哥说唱歌手，在狱中数月后获释。Mouad Belrhouat一向被称作as al-Haqed，他一获释，就表示将对普通摩洛哥民众在政府手中所受的压迫而进行抗议。如今执政的伊斯兰党曾承诺司法独立，这次审判这可算是一次初步的考验。

Italy's highest court has rejected a proposed referendum on electoral reform. More than a million people have signed a petition calling for a plebiscite on whether to scrap or change an electoral law brought in by the former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi seven years ago. The law is controversial because it gives the coalition that wins most votes, bonus seats and an automatic majority in parliament.
意大利最高法院已经驳回就选举改革进行公投的建议。超过100万人已经签署了一份请愿书，要求就废除或修改前总理贝卢斯科尼7年前颁布的选举法举行全民公投。该法颇有争议，因为它使赢得最多选票的联盟能得到额外席位，还能在议会自动获得多数支持。
