The Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi has announced a month-long state of emergency in three cities after days of violent protests. In a televised address to the nation, Mr. Morsi said the state would stand up to whoever tried to threaten Egypt's security. Earlier at least seven people were killed in Port Said during mass funerals for those who died during violence on Saturday. Our Cairo correspondent Aleem Maqbool says President Morsi has now taken a hard line.
在发生数天暴力抗议活动后，埃及总统穆罕默德•穆尔西宣布在三个城市实行为期一月的紧急状态。穆尔西在向全国的电视讲话中说，政府必须对付任何试图威胁埃及安全的人。此前，在塞得港为周六暴力中丧生者举行的葬礼上，至少7人被杀。BBC驻开罗记者阿里姆•马克波尔说总统穆尔西开始采取强硬手段。

He was very uncompromising in his speech he gave us, the speech a few days ago which was very conciliatory, talking about dialogue between the different groups in Egypt. But today he was talking about using the full force of the law against those who intimidated people, who attacked people and who had used weapons on the streets. We've had three days now of violence and what President Morsi has said is that he is going to impose a state of emergency in three cities, in Port Said, in Suez and in Ismalia. There will be a curfew in those cities. Nobody would be allowed out of their homes after 9 p.m. until 6 o'clock in the morning and he was talking about using greater powers if [it] need be.
总统在这次演讲中表现得很强硬，而前几天，他在讲话中还试图调节，他还谈到在埃及不同群体之间进行对话。但是今天，他表示严厉打击危害人民、袭击人民和在大街上使用武器的人。暴力活动已经进行三天了，总统穆尔西说他将在三个城市—塞得港、苏伊士和伊斯梅利亚实行紧急状态，将在这些城市实行宵禁。晚上9点以后和早上6点之前严禁离开家门，他还谈到动用更大权力来维持秩序。

At least 230 people, mostly students, have died in a fire at a nightclub in the Brazilian southern city of Santa Maria. Witnesses said the incident began early on Sunday after a member of a band lit a flare on stage. Most of the victims died of smoke inhalation.

Reports say the nightclub was holding a party for the local university's agronomy department.
巴西南部城市Santa Maria一家夜总会发生火灾，至少230人丧生，其中大部分人是学生。目击者称，事故发生在周日早些时候，某乐队的一名成员在舞台上点了火，随后就发生了火灾。大多数遇难者因吸入浓烟而死。消防员称在卫生间发现很多尸体，这说明人们误将卫生间的门当做出口。报道称当时夜总会正为当地大学的农学系举行晚会。

There has been a furious reaction to remarks made by the former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi in which he defended the legacy of the country's wartime leader Benito Mussolini. Mr. Berlusconi chose to make his comments at an event held to mark World Holocaust Remembrance Day. Alan Johnston reports.
意大利前总理西尔维奥•贝卢斯科尼在讲话中为该国战时领袖本尼托•墨索里尼辩护，因此引发愤怒的回应。贝卢斯科尼是在纪念世界大屠杀纪念日的活动上发表此番言论的。艾伦•约翰斯顿报道。

Speaking on the sidelines of a holocaust commemoration ceremony in Milan, Mr. Berlusconi tried to excuse Mussolini's alliance with Hitler. He said the Italian dictator had feared German power and chosen to side with it rather than oppose it. But he said that the dictator had, as he put it, done well in so many other ways. In response, a spokesman for Italy's Jewish community said Mr. Berlusconi's remarks show that the country still has trouble accepting its responsibility for its past.
在米兰巨星的大屠杀纪念仪式上，贝卢斯科尼为墨索里尼与希特勒联盟开脱。他说这位意大利独裁者因为害怕德国的势力，因此选择与德国同流而不是反对之。不过他说，这位独裁者在其他很多方面都做得不错。对此，意大利犹太人社区发言人说，贝卢斯科尼的言论表明意大利仍不愿承担历史责任。
