中英双语新闻 潘基文称用饥饿作为武器是战争罪行

Hello I am Julia Cantler with the BBC news.

The head of World Athletics¹ Sabastian Coe says the sports governing body faces a long road before it will be trusted again. He was speaking after a report by the World Anti-doping agency said corruption² was embedded³ in the IAAF.

If we do not resolve, there are no tomorrows for athletics. And I know we are at crossroads, and it is a very very serious situation. The issue that we now have to confront is what is it that we need to put in place and some of that is already on the way. That means we never return to this horror show again.

The Nigerian president Muhammadu Buhari has ordered a new investigation⁴ into the kidnapping of more than 200 school girls by Boko Haram Islamists nearly two years ago. The teenagers were seized from their dormitories in the northeastern town of Chibok, attracting international condemnation⁵. Martin Patients reports from Abuja.

President Muhammadu Buhari says that invesigation will examine the circumstances that lead to the kidnapping and the government's response from aftermath. But more than a year and half later, it's unlikely the investigation will produce any fresh leads on what happened to the girls. The announcement followed a meeting between the president and the students' families. The president who was not in power when the girls were kidnapped, told the families he was doing all he could to find their daughters.

Saudi Arabia's foreign minister Adel al-Jubeir says he hopes talks between the Syrian government and rebel groups will go ahead in ten days' time, in spite of tensions between his country and Iran. The Syrian government has strong Iranian backing, while key rival groups are supported by the Saudis.

We hope that their talks will begin on 25th, so we can launch the process. The talks will be between Syrians and Syrians. We will not be at the table, nor will Iran. We are commited to the process, the transition process in Syria, we are committed to the what is called now the Vienna process, the Geneva principles, and the principles enshrined in the UN Security Council resolutions in spite of our differences with Iran.

United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has said starvation is being used as a weapon of war in the Syrian conflict, and that all sides are committing unconscionable abuse.

Let me be clear, the use of starvation as a weapon of war is a war crime. All sides including Syrian government, which has the primary responsibility to protect Syrians, are committing this and other atrocious acts, prohibited under international humanitarian⁶ law. France, Britain and the US have requested an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council to demand the lifting of seiges of towns in which hundreds of thousands of people are trapped, and to allow aid deliveries.

Macedonia's president Nikola Gruevski says he will resign on Friday ahead of early elections that are due to be held in April. His departure is part of a deal brokered⁷ by the European Union to end months of political crisis. Mr. Gruevski came under pressure to step down when the opposition⁸ released phone tap recordings⁹ of judges, diplomats¹⁰ and journalists.

The worldwide Anglican church has suspended the Episcopal church in North America from full participation¹¹ in matters of doctrine¹² for recognizing gay marriages. Anglican leaders meeting in Canterbury, said marriage was a union between a man and a woman, and the Episcopal church had fundementally departed from the faith held by the majority of Anglicans. Caroline Wine reports.

The resolution which was leaked tonight shows that the majority of primates¹³ agreed by recognizing same sex marriage, the Episcopal church in the US, departed fundamentally from the faith and teaching of the Anglican communion, causing, on the primates term, deep pain. The most majority of primates reaffirmed that marriage was between a man and a woman. As a result, for three years, Episcopal church can no longer represent communion on inter-faith bodies, nor take part in internal decision making on doctrine within the Anglican communion.

Officials in Brazil say a fire at a cargo¹⁴ warehouse¹⁵ have spread a plume¹⁶ of smoke and toxic¹⁷ chemicals over the country's biggest port Santos. The company that owns the building, said the containers were full of acid and infectant, which they think came into contact with rain water causing a reaction. The cargo terminal and nearby houses had been evacuated¹⁸. The local mayor had appealed to residents to stay inside with their windows closed.

The Mexican authorities have seized a number of exotic birds at a ranch¹⁹ linked to Joaquin Guzmán, the country's most notorious drugs lord, who was recaptured last week after six months on the run. The animals included peacocks, macaws, cockatoos, and several endangered species.

沙特外长朱贝尔称，尽管本国和伊朗关系紧张，他仍希望叙利亚政府和叛军之间的谈判能在10天后举行。叙利亚政府有伊朗提供强大的支持，其主要的敌人集团有沙特做后盾。

我们希望他们能于25日开始谈判，这样我们就能开启这个进程，谈判将是叙利亚人和叙利亚人谈，我们不会参与进来，伊朗也不参与。尽管我们与伊朗存在分歧，我们仍致力于叙利亚的过渡进程，致力于所谓的维也纳进程、日内瓦原则，以及联合国安理会决议所提出的原则。

联合国秘书长潘基文称在叙利亚冲突中饥饿被用作战争的武器，称各方都犯下这样的罪行。

我要明确说的是，使用饥饿作为战争武器是在犯战争罪，叙利亚政府有保护叙利亚人民的首要责任，但是包括叙利亚政府在内的各方都犯下此种罪行和其他暴行，而这都是国际人道主义法所禁止的。法国、英国和美国请求联合国安理会召开紧急会议，要求帮助被围困城镇解围并允许人道主义援助进入，这些城镇里有成千上万民众被困其中。
