BBC News with Marion Marshall.
The Egyptian President Mohammed Mursi has delivered a defiant speech to supporters outside his palace in Cairo, pledging to protect the country's revolution and lead Egypt to freedom and democracy. Opposition groups have accused him of behaving like a dictator after he granted himself sweeping new powers on Thursday. Our correspondent Jon Leyne has been following the events in Cairo.
埃及总统穆罕默德•穆尔西在开罗官邸向支持者发表挑衅性讲话,誓言捍卫埃及革命,领导埃及走向自由和民主。反对派组织指责穆尔西,称他在周四授权自己更多权力后作为像独裁者。BBC记者Jon Leyne在开罗报道。

Through the day across Egypt, demonstrators have poured out onto the streets. Some supporting President Mursi, many others furiously opposed. They say this edict makes him into a new dictator. The president himself came out to speak outside his palace offering this reassurance. "I'd like to see a genuine opposition, a strong opposition, I guarantee that." But there is a wider frustration in Egypt that the new government has done little to change their lives for the better. It's clear there are some turbulent times ahead for Egypt.
整个埃及的游行者走上街头,有的支持总统穆尔西,有的坚决反对他,称新法令使穆尔西成为新的独裁者。总统走出官邸再次宣誓,“我希望看到真正的反对派,强大的反对派,我发誓。”但埃及的沮丧情绪仍在蔓延,因为新政府在改善人民福利方面毫无作为。显然,埃及还要经历些动荡时候。

European Union leaders have ended their summit in Brussels without an agreement on a new budget deal. Most EU leaders supported an increase in the budget for the years 2014 to 2020, but Germany, Britain and several others wanted cuts. Gavin Hewitt reports from Brussels.
欧盟领导人结束在布鲁塞尔的峰会,但并未就新的预算协议达成一致。欧盟大部分领导人希望增加2014年到2020年的预算,但德国、英国等几个国家希望削减预算。Gavin Hewitt在布鲁塞尔报道。

In the end, as many have predicted, Europe's leaders failed to reach agreement on the next seven-year budget, they will try again in the New Year. The differences were too great, particularly, between those countries like Poland which benefits from EU grants and those countries which are the main contributors. The original budget proposal at over a trillion Euros was reduced by 80bn. The President of the European Council, Herman Van Rompuy remained confident of a deal in the New Year.
最后,正如人们料想的那样,欧洲领导人未能就未来7年的预算达成协议,他们将在明年再次会谈。会上分歧很大,尤其是诸如波兰这种从欧盟拨款中受益的国家和资金的主要提供国之间。原本大约一万亿欧元的预算提议被削减了800亿。欧洲理事会主席范佩仍对新年的协议表示乐观。

The European Union and the International Monetary Fund said they have good progress with Cyprus on a bailout deal about $20bn to help prop up its banks and pay its debts. They said preliminary results of an investigation into the finances needed were expected within the next few weeks. Cyprus said earlier that an agreement had been reached. The country was badly hit by the Greek debt crisis.
欧盟和国际货币基金组织称与塞浦路斯就价值200亿美元的援助协议达成协议,来振兴其银行并偿付债款。双方呈对财政调查的初步结果有望在数周内完成。塞浦路斯早些时候称已达成一项协议,该国深受希腊债务危机的打击。

Ernest Bai Koroma has been elected as the president of Sierra Leone for a second term. He secured more than 58% of the votes. Mark Doyle reports from the capital Freetown.
Ernest Bai Korom二度当选为塞拉利昂总统,他获得超过58%的支持率。Mark Doyle在首都弗里敦报道。

Mr Koroma won on his record of building roads across the country, attracting foreign investment and improving, albeit, only slightly the main electricity supply. This election was certified by a large number of foreign observers, has taken place in an atmosphere of peace and transparency. This country is still associated for many people around the world with war and atrocities. But today nothing could be further from the truth. Sierra Leone is now peaceful and democratic and this election show it is growing away from the war years.
Korom再度当选要归功于其在全国修建道路、吸引外资和略微改善重要电力供应的政绩。这次选举经过大批外国观察员的公证,整个选举过程很和平,透明度高。该国仍与世界上一些民族为战和进行残暴行为。但今天的一切非常真实,塞拉利昂现在很和平、民主,这次大选展示该国已摆脱战争多年。
