Alexei Navalny, Russia’s most prominent opposition leader and anti-corruption activist, fell into a coma after being poisoned. He was held for two days in a Russian hospital, before being released and flown to Germany, where doctors said they thought the poison included cholinesterase inhibitors, an ingredient in some Russian-made military toxins. Kremlin flacks said perhaps he was suffering from low blood sugar. Germany has offered him asylum.
俄罗斯最著名的反对派领袖、反腐活动人士阿列克谢·纳瓦尔尼(Alexei Navalny)在中毒后陷入昏迷。他在一家俄罗斯医院被看守了两天,之后被释放并飞往德国就医。德国的医生表示,他们认为毒药中含有胆碱酯酶抑制剂,是一种俄罗斯制造的一些军用毒剂的成分。克里姆林宫发言人称,纳瓦尔尼可能患有低血糖。德国已向他提供庇护。
Hundreds of thousands of protesters continued to demand the resignation of Alexander Lukashenko, Belarus’s dictator, despite facing arrest and torture. Mr Lukashenko flew by helicopter to a secure location and brandished an AK-47 rifle. Western countries have not recognised a rigged election on August 9th that Mr Lukashenko “won”.
尽管面临逮捕和酷刑,数十万抗议者仍继续要求白俄罗斯独裁者亚历山大·卢卡申科(Alexander Lukashenko)辞职。卢卡申科手持一把AK-47步枪,乘直升机抵达一处安全的地点。西方国家并不认可卢卡申科在8月9日的舞弊选举中的“胜利”。

The UN Security Council blocked America’s effort to restore UN sanctions on Iran, which were lifted as part of a nuclear deal that America ditched in 2018. The rotating president of the council said many members disagreed with America’s position. Meanwhile, Iran agreed to grant inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency access to two nuclear sites after a months-long stand-off.
联合国安理会阻止了美国恢复联合国对伊朗制裁的企图,美国在2018年退出核协议时就失去了这一权利。安理会轮值主席表示,许多成员国不同意美国的立场。与此同时,在长达数月的对峙之后,伊朗同意允许国际原子能机构的巡视人员进入两处核设施巡查。

In India Prashant Bhushan, a lawyer, was found guilty of contempt of court for a tweet chiding the chief justice for flouting social-distancing rules and another saying courts were abetting the erosion of democracy in India. The ruling on the two tweets was 108 pages long.
