BBC news. Hello I'm John Shay.

The US treasury has told the BBC that it considers the Russian president Vladimir Putin to be corrupt. The American government has already imposed sanctions on Mr Putin's aids, but it's thought to be the first time it's directly accused him of corruption. The president spokesman described the claim as pure fiction. But an American treasury official Adam Szubin says Mr Putin has committed financial wrongdoing.
美国财政部告诉BBC俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔•普京有腐败罪,美国政府已经对普京的助手施加制裁,但据悉这是美国政府政府首次对普京进行腐败指控。普京的发言人称这纯粹是无中生有,但美国财政部官员亚当•舒宾称普京有金融不法行为。

We've seen him enriching his friends, his close allies, and marginalizing those who he doesn't view as friends, using state assets whether that's Russia's energy wealth, whether it's other state contracts. He directs those to whom he believes will serve him and excludes those who don't. And to me that is a picture of corruption.
我们看到他让自己的朋友、亲密助手敛聚财富,排斥异己,利用国家资产,无论是俄罗斯的能源财富还是其他国家合同,把财富分给他视为效忠于他的,排斥他认为不忠于他的,对我来说这就是腐败。

The United Nation's Security Council has approved creation of an unarmed UN mission in Columbia to monitor a bilateral ceasefire if FARC rebels and the government reach a peace agreement. More than half a century of fighting has killed more than 200,000 people and displaced millions. Natalia X is in Bogota.
联合国安理会批准在哥伦比亚组建一支非武装的联合国使团,一旦Farc叛军和政府达成和平协议,该使团将监督一份双边协议的实施情况。历时半个多世纪的战斗导致20多万人死亡,令数百万人流离失所。娜塔莉亚在波哥大报道。

The news should bring optimism to Havana where peace negotiations between the Columbia government and the FARC have been inching towards a final agreement for the past three years. Both sides expect to reach an agreement by late March. If they do, more than six thousand FARC fighters would start the process of free integrating into society.
这一消息将让在哈瓦那举行和谈的哥伦比亚政府和Farc叛军感到乐观,过去三年来双方一直在为达成最后的协议而努力。双方有望在三月底达成协议,一旦达成,6000多名Farc武装分子将开始自由融入社会的过程。

The European Union has moved closer towards accepting that the Schengen agreement on open boarders could be suspended for up to two years in response to the influx of migrants and refugees. The meeting of European interior ministers in Amsterdam was acrimonious, with some suggesting that Greece should be isolated from the Schengen zone. Alan Holigan reports.
为了应对移民和难民的涌入,欧盟在让开放边境暂停申根协议两年的措施上又进了一步。欧洲各国内政部长们在阿姆斯特丹召开的会议满是火药味,有人建议将希腊从申根区隔离出去。安娜•霍利甘报道。

Austria's interior minister Johanna Mikl-Leitner called for Greece to be temporarily suspended from Schengen unless it did more to secure its boarders, but a European commission spokesperson dismissed the idea, twisting that there will be no exclusions or suspensions. Instead, she says, we will save Schengen by applying Schengen. The temporary border controls imposed by Austria and Germany were supposed to be lifted in May, but countries can get EU permission to extend the measures for a maximum of two years under exceptional circumstances.
奥地利内政部长乔安娜•米克莱特纳呼吁暂时将希腊从申根区隔离出去,直到该国做进一步努力保卫边境为止,但欧洲委员会发言人否决了该提议,称不会将希腊排斥出去或暂停其申根国家身份。她说,相反我们要通过申请申根国家来拯救申根协议,奥地利和德国实施的临时边境控制措施将于五月份解除,但在特殊情况下各国可以获得欧盟的许可将该措施延长至最多两年。

The United Nation's special envoy to Syria has said he expects that peace talks between government and opposition representatives would start on Friday. Speaking in Geneva where the talks were meant to begin on Monday, Staffan de Mistura said they've been delayed by disputes over who should take part. He says he expects the whole process to go on for six months.
联合国赴叙利亚特使称他期待政府和反对派代表的和谈能于周五开始,和谈原定于周一再日内瓦举行,德米斯图拉在日内瓦称由于双方争执谁应该参加会谈,导致和谈被耽误,他说希望整个和谈能持续六个月。
