Ukraine's interim President Alexander Tuchinov hascalled an emergency meeting of his security chiefs todeal with growing unrest in the east of the country.Pro-Russian demonstrators seized governmentbuildings in 3 major cities. From Kyiv, David Stern reports.

烏克蘭臨時(shí)總統(tǒng)亞歷山大·圖爾奇諾夫召集安全部門領(lǐng)導(dǎo)召開緊急會(huì)議，來對(duì)付該國(guó)東部日益動(dòng)亂的局面。親俄羅斯游行者占領(lǐng)了三座大城市的政府大樓，戴維·施特恩在基輔報(bào)道。

Mr. Turchinov cancelled a planned visit to Lithuania. His press service said he was personallyfollowing the unfolding events in the east of the country. About 50 pro-Russian protestersseized the local administration building in Donetsk and raised the Russian flag. Pro-Russianprotesters also seized a government building in Kharkiv. And in Luhansk they stormed the localbuilding of Ukraine’s state security agency. Demonstrators called for a referendum to be heldwhether to grant the eastern regions increased independence from Kyiv. Russia’s presidentVladimir Putin has said Moscow has the right to intervene in east Ukraine to protect theRussian speaking population there.

圖爾奇諾 夫取消了原計(jì)劃前往立陶宛的訪問，他的新聞機(jī)構(gòu)稱他本人密切關(guān)注該國(guó)東部事態(tài)的發(fā)展。約有50名親俄羅斯的抗議者占領(lǐng)了頓涅茨克的地方行政大樓并豎起俄羅 斯國(guó)旗。親俄羅斯抗議者還占領(lǐng)了哈爾科夫的一座政府大樓，在盧甘斯克他們襲擊了烏克蘭國(guó)家安全機(jī)構(gòu)的地方大樓。游行者要求舉行公投來決定是否賦予東部地區(qū) 獨(dú)立于基輔的權(quán)利。俄羅斯總統(tǒng)普京稱莫斯科有權(quán)力對(duì)烏克蘭東部進(jìn)行干預(yù)來保護(hù)當(dāng)?shù)刂v俄羅斯語的民眾。

Partial results in Hungary’s parliamentary election showed that the right of center Fidesz Partyof the Prime Minister Viktor Orban is heading for a clear victory. With nearly half the votescounted Fidesz leads with almost 47%. Nick Thorp reports from Budapest.

匈牙利議會(huì)選舉部分結(jié)果顯示總理維克多·奧班的中間右派青年民主黨有望獲得勝利，目前已經(jīng)清點(diǎn)了近一半選票，青年民主黨以47%遙遙領(lǐng)先。尼克·索普在布達(dá)佩斯報(bào)道。

On the basis of the real votes counted, Fidesz appears to be coasting to victory in thiselection and probably to another 2/3 majority in parliament. Four years after winning alandslide victory, this result is a tribute to the leadership powers of Prime Minister ViktorOrban, according to Fidesz’s supporters. While opposition parties have accused himthroughout the campaign of undermining Hungarian democracy in order to stay in charge.These partial figures also suggest a strong showing for the far right Jobbik Party. It nowseems likely that they will be the 2nd largest party in the new parliament.

就目前清點(diǎn)的選票看來，青年民主黨似乎能在選舉中取 得全勝，可能在議會(huì)贏得三分之二的絕對(duì)多數(shù)席位。四年前該黨獲得壓倒性勝利，青年民主黨的支持者稱這次的結(jié)果是對(duì)總理維克多·奧班領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的稱贊。盡管反對(duì)黨 指責(zé)他為了繼續(xù)留任在選舉中破壞了匈牙利的民主，目前的數(shù)據(jù)也表明極右派約比克黨表現(xiàn)也不錯(cuò)，目前看來似乎該黨已成為新議會(huì)的第二大黨。

Nigeria has declared its economy to be the biggest on the continent, overtaking South Africa forthe 1st time. Will Ross reports from Lagos.

尼日利亞宣布該國(guó)成為非洲大陸第一大經(jīng)濟(jì)體，歷史上首次超過南非。威爾·羅斯在拉各斯報(bào)道。

After the statisticians had been hard at work, it only took a press conference for Nigeria’seconomy to almost double in size and become by some distance the biggest in Africa. Much haschanged since 1990 when the economy was last properly assessed, but no one had realizedhow much the economy had been under-valued. Now worth around 510 billion dollars, it’s the26th largest in the world. Nigeria may now have claimed the No. 1 spot, but South Africa has afar smaller population and average incomes are still considerably higher there.

統(tǒng)計(jì)工作人員辛苦工作后，尼日利亞舉行發(fā)布會(huì)宣稱本國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)規(guī)模 翻倍，成為非洲最大經(jīng)濟(jì)體并遠(yuǎn)超過第二名。上次該國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)評(píng)估是在1990年，自此該國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)生了巨大了變化，但沒有人意識(shí)到該國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)被低估多少?，F(xiàn)在該國(guó) 經(jīng)濟(jì)價(jià)值約5100億美元，在全世界排名第26。盡管尼日利亞目前宣布是非洲最大經(jīng)濟(jì)體，但南非人口要少很多，其平均收入要遠(yuǎn)高于尼日利亞。
