Donald Trump faces more than 30 counts related to business fraud in an indictment from a Manhattan grand jury, according to two sources familiar with the case – the first time in American history that a current or former president has faced criminal charges. Trump is expected to appear in court on Tuesday.

The indictment has been filed under seal and will be announced in the coming days. The charges are not publicly known at this time.

据两名知情人士透露，唐纳德·特朗普在曼哈顿大陪审团的起诉书中面临30多项与商业欺诈有关的指控，这是美国历史上现任或前任总统首次面临刑事指控。特朗普预计将于周二出庭。

起诉书已被封存，并将在未来几天内宣布。这些指控目前尚未公开。

1.count v.数数；重要 n.总数；（被指控的）罪状，事项

2.business fraud 商业欺诈（fraud n.欺诈；骗局；骗子）

3.indictment n.刑事起诉，诉讼书

4.jury n.陪审团

5.criminal charges 刑事诉讼（charge v.收费；控告，起诉 n.指控，控告）

The decision is sure to send shockwaves across the country, pushing the American political system – which has never seen one of its ex-leaders confronted with criminal charges, let alone while running again for president – into uncharted waters. Trump released a statement in response to the indictment claiming it was “Political Persecution and Election Interference at the highest level in history.”

这一决定肯定会在全美范围内带来很大的冲击，将美国的政治体系推入未知的水域——美国从未见过任何一位前领导人面临刑事指控，而且特朗普甚至还准备参加下一届总统选举。特朗普发表声明回应起诉书，称这是“历史上最高程度的政治迫害和选举干预”。
