Ukraine’s new government says it’s making contingency plans to withdraw its troops and their families from Crimea following Russian moves to annex the peninsula. The country’s Foreign Minister Andrii Deshchytsya told the BBC the government was very concerned about the safety of its citizens. The Ukrainian security chief Andriy Parubiy said they wanted to be able to move people quickly and efficiently to mainland Ukraine.
乌克兰新政府表示，由于俄罗斯吞并克里米亚，将制定将军队及其家属从该地撤离的应急计划。该国外交部长Andrii Deshchytsya告诉BBC，政府非常关心其公民的安危。乌克兰安全部长安德里•帕鲁比称他希望能将人们尽快有效撤离到乌克兰大陆上。

"The cabinet of ministers has been ordered to demand without further delay that the UN proclaimed Crimea a demilitarized zone and the withdrawal of Russian troops from the autonomous Republic of Crimea and to ensure the relocation of Ukrainian troops to continental Ukraine as well as facilitate evacuation of all civilians who are unwilling to remain on the occupied territory."
“部长内阁已得到命令，要求联合国立即宣布克里米亚为非军事管制区，尽快将乌克兰军队从克里米亚自治共和国撤离，确保将乌克兰军队安置到乌克兰大陆，同时为所有不愿继续呆在这片被占领区的平民撤离提供便利。”

Ukraine has warned the pro-Russian authorities in Crimea that they’ll face a response unless they release the head of its navy, who was led away as armed activists took over Ukraine’s navy headquarters in Sevastopol. Ukraine’s acting president Oleksandr Turchynov said that what he called all military and civilian hostages held by Crimean leaders had to be freed. Our correspondent in Sevastopol Mark Lowen says just a few servicemen are holding out inside the headquarters.
乌克兰警告克里米亚亲俄罗斯当局，除非释放其海军首领，否则将面临后果，在武装活动人士占领塞瓦斯托波尔的乌克兰海军总部时这位将领被带走。乌克兰临时总统图尔奇诺夫称必须释放被克里米亚领导人扣押的全部军事和平民人质。BBC驻塞瓦斯托波尔记者马克•罗文称总部内只有少数军人被扣押。

I have just spoken to one of the few Ukrainian sailors who remain barricaded inside the naval headquarters here in Sevastopol. He told me earlier in the day that there were about 100 Ukrainian sailors who were holding out inside the building but now there were just a handful left. Most of the others have departed and just a few remaining had been ordered to stay in order to protect Ukrainian equipment. But, he said, he fully expects there would be an order that will come through tomorrow morning for them to withdraw.
我刚和一位乌克兰水手谈过话，这些数量不多的水手仍在塞瓦斯托波尔的海军总部内设置障碍。他早些时候告诉我，这座大楼内约有100名乌克兰士兵被扣押，但现在有少数人离开了，其他多数已经动身，只有少数被下令留在那里保护乌克兰设备。但他说他相信明天早上就会下令将他们撤走。

The Japanese car giant Toyota has agreed to pay 1.2 billion dolllars to resolve a criminal dispute with the United States over safety problems that led to the recall of millions of vehicles. In a statement, Toyota said it took full responsibility for any concerns the company’s actions might have caused its customers. The US Attorney-General Eric Holder described Toyota’s behavior as shameful.
日本汽车巨头丰田同意就与美国的刑事争端支付12亿美元的赔偿，这件案子中涉及的安全问题使得该公司召回数百万辆汽车。丰田在声明中称，对于该公司行为给客户造成的任何担忧，本公司都会承担全部责任。美国总检察长埃里克•霍尔德称丰田的行为是可耻的。

"When car owners get behind the wheel, they have the right to expect that their vehicle is safe. If part of the automobile turns out to have safety issues, the car company has a duty upfront to tell customers about them, to fix them quickly and to immediately tell the truth about the problem. Toyota violated this basic compact."
“当车主开车时，他们有权利期待车辆是安全的。如果部分汽车出现安全问题，那么汽车公司就有责任提前告诉顾客尽快修好，立即告诉问题所在。而丰田违反了这一基本的原则。”
