President Obama says his administration is going to review whether to restore North Korea to its list of state sponsors of terrorism after blaming Pyongyang for a cyber-attack on the U.S. firm, Sony Pictures Entertainment. In an interview with cnn, Mr. Obama said he would implement a suitable response to the hacking. “I don't think it was an act of war. I think it was an act of cyber vandalism that was very costly, very expensive. We take it very seriously. We'll respond proportionally, as I said. We are gonna be in this environment in this new world where so much is digitalized that both state and non-state actors are going to have the capacity to disrupt our lives in all sorts of ways.”
奥巴马总统称，在指责平壤对美国索尼影业公司进行网络攻击后，其政府将审查是否将朝鲜重新列入赞助恐怖主义的国家赞助者名单中。在接受cnn的采访中，奥巴马称他将对这次黑客事件作出适当的应对。
“我认为这并不是战争行为，我想这是一场代价非常高昂的网络破坏活动，我们会严肃对待的。正如我所说的那样，我们将采取适当的应对措施。在这个如此数字化的新世界环境中，不论是国家还是非国家行为者都将有能力以各种方式扰乱我们的生活。”

The Iraqi Kurdish leader Massoud Barzani has gone to Mount Sinjar to congratulate his fighters on breaking a long siege by the Islamic State group. The offensive by Kurdish Peshmerga fighters was launched last week. Mr. Barzani said the fighters were now intensifying their efforts to recapture the town of Sinjar below the mountain. Jim Muir reports. “Touring the strategic mountaintop of Sinjar, where his Kurdish Peshmerga forces have now regained control, President Barzani said that recapturing the town of Sinjar was not originally part of the battle plan. But Kurdish troops have penetrated deep into the town, which lies to the south of the mountain. Heavy fighting is going on there, but Mr. Barzani vowed to crush the militants wherever they could be found. The Kurdish advance has broken the IS siege imposed on thousands of minority Yazidis trapped for months on the mountain. Supply convoys are now able to get through.”

“巴尔扎尼前方辛加尔具有战略意义的山头，他的库尔德自由斗士武装已经夺回对当地的控制，巴尔扎尼称重夺辛加尔镇原本不是战斗计划的内容，但库尔德军队已经渗透到这个位于山南的城镇的深处。那里正在进行激烈的战斗，但巴尔扎尼承诺一旦发现武装分子，就会予以歼灭。库尔德的挺进已经打破了IS数月来对山上数千名少数民族雅兹迪人的包围。目前供给车队能够进入当地。”

Counting is taking place after voting closed in the Tunisian presidential election, seen as the culmination of the country's political transition following the Arab Spring uprising there almost four years ago. National television said early exit polls suggested the 88-year-old Beji Caid Essebsi is expected to win the poll. Turnout was lower than expected, as Naveena Kottoor reports from Tunis. “It has been a very long election period. We had parliamentary elections here in October and the first round of presidential elections in November. And this was the third election in three months. So I think that explains why we are seeing lower turnout figures than people might have hoped for. Early days yet, but both candidates have given a press conference and have said that they would accept the results. One of them, Beji Caid Essebsi, the 88-year-old, leader of the Nidaa Tounes Party here, has already claimed victory. But I think we should wait until we have official election results.”
突尼斯总统选举投票过程已经结束，目前正在清点选票中，这次选举被视为是自4年前阿拉伯之春起义以来该国政治变革的高潮。国家电视台称早些时候的民调显示88岁的凯德•埃塞卜西有望赢得选举，投票率比预料的要低，Kottoor在突尼斯报道。
“这次选举持续时间很长，10月份进行了初步选举，11月举行了第一轮的总统选举，这是三个月内的第三次选举。所以我认为这就说明为何这次的投票率比人们希望的要低，尽管为时还早，但两位候选人都已举行过新闻发布会，称将接受选举结果。其中一位是88岁的某党领袖贝吉•凯德•埃塞卜西已经宣告获胜，但我认为我们应该等到官方结果揭晓再说。”
