President Obama said that he wanted to make it clear that there would be consequences for provoking the secession and said further sanctions could yet be announced. But he stressed there was still a path to solve the crisis diplomatically. White House spokesman Jay Carney when asked by journalists whether sanctions could be imposed on Mr. Putin, gave this response.
奥巴马总统称他要明确表示，挑起分裂是要承担后果的，并表示将宣布进一步的制裁措施。但他强调说，仍然存在外交途径解决危机的办法。白宫发言人卡尼被记者问及是否会对普京实施制裁，他回答说：

The authority exist to apply sanctions to a variety of individuals and entities. We are not gonna rule out individuals or rule out actions except to say that there will be cost imposed on Russia, additional cost imposed on Russia if Russia does not change direction here when it comes to how it's handling the situation in Ukraine.
“我们存在着对多个个人和组织实施制裁的当局，除了表示俄罗斯将承担后果外，我们不会排除哪个个人或行为。在如何处理乌克兰局势的问题上，如果俄罗斯不改变方向，那么就要承担额外的后果。”

Among those already targeted are senior Crimean officials, a deputy Russian prime minister, members of parliament and commanders of the Russian Black Sea Fleet and Russia's western and southern military district, units of which are deployed in Crimea. The EU's foreign policy chief, Catherine Ashton said those singled out for travel and asset bans were responsible for threatening Ukraine's territorial integrity and independence. The Russian deputy foreign minister Sergei Ryabkov said US measures reflected its desire to impose its own unilateral unbalanced approach.
制裁措施已经针对的人有克里米亚高级官员、俄罗斯副总理、议员和俄罗斯西部和南部军区黑海舰队指挥官，该部队目前在克里米亚驻扎。欧盟外交政策首席代表凯瑟琳•阿斯顿称这些旅行和资产遭禁的人要为威胁乌克兰领土完整和独立负责。俄罗斯副外长谢尔盖•里亚布科夫称美国的措施反映了美国的目的就是实施其单边不平衡路线。

Scientists in the United States say they've detected the tiny and faint echoes of the massive explosion known as the big bang that brought the universe, galaxies and stars into existence almost instantaneously nearly 14 billion years ago. If the findings which Albert Einstein predicted are verified, it could rank as one of the greatest scientific discoveries ever.
美国科学家称探测出所谓大爆炸极微弱的回响，就在近140一年前，大爆炸使得宇宙、星系和恒星在一瞬间由无到有地出现。如果阿尔伯特•爱因斯坦预测的发现能得到证实，那么这将是有史以来最伟大的科学发现之一。
