VOA新闻杂志2022 诺贝尔奖章拍出超1亿美元用于帮助乌克兰儿童（在线收听）

A Nobel Peace Prize won by Russian reporter Dmitry Muratov last year has been sold in an effort to help Ukrainian child refugees.

俄罗斯记者德米特里·穆拉托夫去年获得的诺贝尔和平奖章已被售出，用以帮助乌克兰难民儿童。

The award sold for $103.5 million during an auction in New York Monday night. The auction company that held the sale, Heritage Auctions, did not identify the buyer. The auction, which lasted about three weeks, ended on World Refugee Day.

周一晚间在纽约举行的一场拍卖会上，该奖章以1.035亿美元的价格售出。举办此次拍卖会的美国遗产拍卖公司没有确认买家的身份。这次拍卖会持续了大约三周时间，于世界难民日结束。

Heritage said all the money will go to the United Nations children's agency UNICEF. The organization is currently involved in efforts to help children displaced by the war in Ukraine.

美国遗产拍卖公司表示，所有资金都将捐给联合国儿童基金会。该组织目前致力于帮助因乌克兰战争流离失所的儿童。

The Associated Press reported the sale broke the record for a Nobel Prize that has been publicly sold. The highest price paid for a Nobel had been $4.76 million in 2014, the news agency said. That prize was co-awarded to American James Watson in 1962 for his efforts in discovering the structure of DNA.

美联社报道称，此次拍卖打破了诺贝尔奖章的公开出售记录。该通讯社报道称，诺贝尔奖章的最高成交价是2014年的476万美元。该奖章于1962年被共同授予给美国人詹姆斯·沃森，以表彰他在发现DNA结构方面的成就。

Muratov told the AP he was surprised at the award's high selling price. "I was hoping that there was going to be an enormous amount of solidarity, but I was not expecting this to be such a huge amount," he said.

穆拉托夫告诉美联社，他对该奖章拍出的高价感到惊讶。他说：“我原本期待会团结很大的力量，但没想到有这么大。”

Muratov was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in October 2021. He shared the prize with reporter Maria Ressa of the Philippines. The two reporters, or journalists, were honored for their efforts to safeguard free speech in their countries while facing heavy government pressure.

穆拉托夫于2021年10月获得诺贝尔和平奖。他与菲律宾记者玛丽亚·雷萨分享了这一奖项。这两位记者因在面临沉重政府压力的情况下为捍卫本国言论自由作出的努力而获得表彰。

Muratov helped launch the Novaya Gazeta independent newspaper. The Nobel committee had called the publication "the most independent newspaper in Russia today." The committee praised the paper for providing Russians with important information "rarely mentioned by other media."

穆拉托夫协助创办了《新公报》这份独立报纸。诺贝尔委员会称该出版物是“当今俄罗斯最为独立的报纸”。该委员会称赞该报为俄罗斯人提供了“其它媒体鲜有提及”的重要信息。

Muratov dedicated his award to six Novaya Gazeta reporters who had been murdered after reporting on human rights violations and corruption in Russia. He donated $500,000 of his Nobel Prize money to aid organizations.

穆拉托夫将他的奖章献给了6名在报道俄罗斯侵犯人权和腐败后被谋杀的新公报记者。他将自己获得的诺贝尔奖金中的50万美元捐给了援助组织。

Muratov has been highly critical of Russia's 2014 annexation of Crimea and the war Russia launched in February in Ukraine. The latest conflict has led nearly 5 million Ukrainians to flee to other countries for safety. The war has created the largest humanitarian crisis in Europe since World War II.

穆拉托夫一直高度批评俄罗斯2014年吞并克里米亚以及今年2月发动的乌克兰战争。最近这场冲突已经导致近500万乌克兰人逃亡其它国家寻求安全。这场战争造成了二战以来欧洲最大的人道主义危机。

Independent journalists in Russia have increasingly come under pressure from the Russian government. Since President Vladimir Putin came into power more than 20 years ago, about 24 journalists have been killed, the AP reported.

俄罗斯的独立记者越来越多地受到俄罗斯政府的压力。据美联社报道，自二十多年前普京总统上台以来，大约有24名记者遇害。
