感谢大家花10分钟，收看本周的CNN学生新闻。我是卡尔·阿祖兹。很高兴再次和大家见面。今天是3月4日，我们首先关注的是美国、欧盟和俄罗斯。美国和欧盟已经宣布对俄罗斯境内组织成员实施制裁和惩罚。
Sanctions are used to pressure or punish other countries for controversial actions and Russia's alleged actions concern a political activist named Alexey Navalny. He opposes Russia's current leadership under President Vladimir Putin. Navalny was poisoned last summer with a chemical weapon and American intelligence officials believe a security agency of the Russian government was behind it.
制裁是用来对有争议的行为施加压力或惩罚其他国家的，而俄罗斯的行为与一位名叫阿列克谢·纳瓦尔尼的政治活动人士有关。他反对普京总统领导下的俄罗斯当前领导层。纳瓦尔尼去年夏天被化学武器毒死，美国情报官员认为幕后黑手是俄罗斯政府的一个安全机构。
By imposing sanctions on Russia, the Biden Administration says the international community is standing up to show that chemical weapons shouldn't ever be used by anyone at any time. But the spokesman for the Russian government called the accusation outrageous, saying the sanctions were nothing more than interference in Russia's internal affairs and suggesting they'd only worsen international relations with Russia.
通过对俄罗斯实施制裁，拜登政府表示，国际社会正在站出来表明，任何人在任何时候都不应该使用化学武器。但俄罗斯政府发言人称这一指控令人无法容忍，称制裁不仅仅是干涉俄罗斯内政，并暗示这只会恶化与俄罗斯的国际关系。
The U.S. government says it plans to take more actions against Russia in the days ahead. American officials say hackers from the Asian country were involved in a cyber attack carried out last year that spied on U.S. government agencies and private companies.
美国政府表示，计划在未来几天对俄罗斯采取更多行动。美国官员说，来自亚洲国家的黑客参与了去年对美国政府机构和私人公司进行的网络攻击。
U.S. officials have also accused Russia of interfering in American elections. Russia's government has publicly denied being involved in any of this. The nation is holding Alexey Navalny in a detention center though according to Navalny's lawyer and Russia is apparently planning to transfer him to a penal colony, a remote settlement for prisoners.
美国官员还指责俄罗斯干预美国选举。俄罗斯政府公开否认与此事有关。俄罗斯将阿列克谢·纳瓦尔尼关押在一个拘留中心，但据纳瓦尔尼的律师称，俄罗斯显然计划将他转移到关押囚犯的偏远地区流放地。
