The United Nations says an estimated 1.5 million people in Syria are in need of food aid. The announcement by the UN humanitarian affairs office came as the UN humanitarian envoy Valerie Amos said not enough aid was reaching Syrians in need. Imogen Foulkes reports from Geneva.
联合国称,估计有150万在叙利亚人民需要粮食援助。该声明是联合国人道主义事务办公室发布的,联合国人道主义特使Valerie Amos也称叙利亚所需的援助不够,Imogen Foulkes从日内瓦发回报道。
The United Nations wants Syria to allow in aid as a matter of urgency. A meeting of UN agencies in Geneva has drafted a 90-day humanitarian plan with food and other supplies for 1.5 million people, but the figure is just an estimate. The UN has been unable to enter Syria since the conflict began. Now a handful of UN aid workers will be allowed in to make a preliminary assessment. From there, they hope to begin the relief operation, but it all depends on Damascus agreeing.
联合国希望叙利亚将允许援助为一个紧迫的问题。联合国机构在日内瓦的会议已经起草了一个为期90天的人道主义计划,将向150万人提供食品与其他用品,但这个数字仅仅是一个估计。自从冲突开始以来,联合国一直无法进入叙利亚。现在,少数联合国援助人员已被批准进入以作初步评估。他们希望就此开始救援行动,但是这一切取决于大马士革同意。
Thousands of Libyans have staged a rally in Tripoli to denounce moves by leaders in the east to create a semi-autonomous territory. Demonstrators chanted slogans demanding unity and, in a show of disdain, used their shoes to hit photographs of Ahmed Zubair al-Senussi, the head of the regional council seeking a split. Gabriel Gatehouse was at the demonstration.
数以千计的利比亚人在的黎波里举行集会,声讨东部领导人企图建立半自治区的行动,示威者高呼口号,要求统一,还用鞋子踢打企图制造分裂的地区委员会领导人Ahmed Zubair al-Senussi的照片。Gabriel Gatehouse在游行现场报道。
Well, there must be several thousand people here in Martyrs Square, and their slogans make it all perfectly clear. "Libya United", "No, No to Federalism", they are chanting. The declaration earlier this week of a semi-autonomous state in the east in Cyrenaica is really exciting the passions here, and not just here, there are demonstrations taking place in cities across the country.
烈士广场上那里已经有数千人,他们的口号让着一些都非常清楚,他们高呼“统一利比亚”、“对联邦制度说不”。本周早些时候,东部昔兰尼加宣布为半自治州,由此惹恼了这些游行者,而不只在这里,该国各个城市都在发生示威游行。
The Greek Finance Minister Evangelos Venizelos has said the participation of Greece's private sector creditors in the country's multi-billion euro bond swap exceeded all expectations. Under the deal, more than 100bn of Greece's debt would be written off. The eurozone finance ministers announced that Greece had met the conditions to receive around $47bn.

The Italian Foreign Minister Giulio Terzi has demanded from Britain an urgent explanation about a failed rescue mission in Nigeria, in which a kidnapped British engineer and his Italian colleague were killed. Alan Johnston reports from Italy.
意大利外交部部长Giulio Terzi要求英国立即对尼日利亚失败营救一事作出解释,这次事故中,一名被绑架的英国工程师及其意大利同事被杀。Alan Johnston从意大利发回报道。
Britain argues that events were just moving too fast as the hostage drama reached a climax. It says it wasn't practical to consult the Italians before sending in the troops. But Italy's Foreign Minister Giulio Terzi seemed unimpressed with that line. He's continued to demand what he called "utmost clarity" from Britain with regards to what happened. But at the same time, the Italian news agency has reported sources in the prime minister's office here as saying that Italy doesn't want to escalate this dispute.
英国辩解称,随着绑架事件戏剧性的到达高潮时,事件发展得太快,派兵前咨询意大利是不切实际的。但意大利外交部部长Giulio Terzi看来对此解释并不满意,他继续要求英国对所发生之事进行所谓的“完全澄清”。 但在同一时间,意大利通讯社从总理办公室了解到,意大利不希望这一争端升级。
