The man who was declared himself President of Venezuela Juan Guaido says the opposition has been holding secret meetings with the military as it seeks to force Nicolas Maduro from office. David Willis reports.
以委内瑞拉总统自称的胡安•瓜伊多表示反对党已经与军方进行了秘密会议，以迫使尼古拉斯•马杜罗下台。以下是大卫•威利斯的报道。

Juan Guaido said clandestine meetings have been taking place between the opposition and members of the military and the security forces, the majority of whose members he claimed regarded the current situation in Venezuela as untenable. The United States, which recognizes Mr. Guaido as Venezuela's interim president, is using economic pressure in an effort to persuade the military to switch sides, freezing assets belonging to the Maduro administration and searching the world for additional assets that could turn into humanitarian funding for the opposition.
胡安•瓜伊多表示反对党和军方以及安全部队已进行了秘密会议，他宣称他们大部分的成员都认为委内瑞拉现在的情况不堪一击。美国已经将胡安•瓜伊多认作是委内瑞拉的临时总统，并正在利用经济手段迫使军方倒戈。美国冻结了马杜罗政府的资金，而且还在全世界范围内为反对党筹集额外的人道主义资金。

German media reports say the three biggest EU member states have officially set up a payment channel to facilitate business transactions with Iran and circumvent US sanctions.

A leaked government report in India says the country's unemployment rate has risen to record levels. The assessment published in the Business Standard Newspaper showed the unemployment rate stands at 6.1 percent, the highest since 1972. Here's our South Asia editor Anbrathan Antirajon.
一份泄露的印度政府报告指出，该国的失业率已达到了历史新高。这份评估文件被发表在了《商业标准报》上，文件显示印度的失业率达到了6.1%，是该国自1972年来的最高水平。以下是本台南亚编辑安德布里森•安迪罗杰的报道。

Though the Indian economy has been expanding by more than seven percent annually, the uneven growth has meant there are not enough jobs created for millions of young Indians entering the workforce each year. It's not good news for the Prime Minister Narendra Modi just months before a general election. The job survey also became a political issue after the chairman of the National Statistical Commission and his colleague resigned on Wednesday saying they were unhappy at the government's decision not to publish the data that had been due for release in December. The data is significant because this was the first comprehensive assessment of Indian's employment situation conducted after Mr. Modi's decision in November 2016 to withdraw most of the country's banknotes from circulation overnight.
虽然印度的年度经济增长超过7%，但是不均衡的增长意味着没有足够的岗位可以提供给每年进入劳动力市场的印度青年。这对于印度总理纳伦德拉•莫迪来说不是个好消息，因为还有几个月就到大选了。这份就业率调查也变成了一个政治问题，此前国家统计委员会主席及其同事在周三辞职，并称他们不满政府隐报数据的决定，这份数据本应该在去年12月发布。这份数据很重要，因为这是莫迪在2016年11月下令一夜之间撤销大部分印度流通货币后，首次对印度就业情况进行的综合评估。

The conservative American Senator Rand Paul has won five hundred and eighty thousand dollars in damages and medical expenses after being attacked by his neighbour in a dispute over lawn maintenance. Mr. Paul, a former presidential hopeful, said he had feared for his life after Rene Boucher assaulted him and broke several of his ribs because he was unhappy at piles of branches the Senator had left on the boundary between their lawns in Kentucky. Mr. Boucher is to appeal.
美国保守党参议员兰德•保罗获得了580,000美元的损失费和医疗费赔偿，此前他因草坪养护和邻居发生争执并遭袭击。保罗曾是前总统候选人，他表示因为不满他将一些树枝留在了两家之间的草坪上，雷内•布歇袭击了他并折断了他的几根内骨，他的生命因而受到了威胁。布歇将提起上诉。
