波罗申科称需控制边境来制止冲突
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko greets US Assistant Secretary of State, Victoria Nuland, in Kiev. As they sit down, Poroshenko focuses on tightening control over the Ukraine-Russia border.

(SOUNDBITE) (English) UKRAINIAN PRESIDENT, PETRO POROSHENKO, SAYING: "And we think that without the closing of the border, without the restoring the Ukrainian control over the border, it would be impossible to stop the conflict. And the sovereign border is the key element of the sovereign state." Nuland offers praise.
乌克兰总统波罗申科:“我们认为,如果不关闭边境,如果不重建乌克兰对边境的控制,制止冲突是不可能的 。主权边境是主权国家的关键因素 。”纽兰对此提出了赞扬 。

While the ceasefire holding in large parts of eastern Ukraine, the truce appears to have bypassed Donetsk-- a symbol of the conflict. Pro-Russian separatists now control large parts of the Donetsk region. Ukraine is preparing to hold parliamentary elections on October 26, hoping it would help bring stability to a country scared by war.
尽管乌克兰东部大部分地区维持停火,然而休战似乎避开了顿涅茨克——这里是冲突的象征 。亲俄分裂分子现在控制着顿涅茨克大部分地区 。乌克兰正准备于10月26日举行议会选举,希望能为这个硝烟四起的国家带来稳定 。

白宫发言:中产阶级的未来代表美国的未来
Weekly Address: We Do Better When the Middle Class Does Better
WASHINGTON, DC — In this week’s address, the President highlighted that six years after the Great Recession, thanks to the hard work of the American people and the President’s policies, our economy has come back further and faster than any other nation on Earth. With 10.3 million private sector jobs added over 55 straight months, America’s businesses have extended the longest streak of private-sector job gains on record. But even with this progress, too many Americans have yet to feel the benefits. The President reiterated the vision he set out earlier this week for steps that can lay a new foundation for stronger growth, rising wages, and expanded economic opportunity for middle class families.
The audio of the address and video of the address will be available online atwww.whitehouse.govat 6:00 a.m. ET, October 4, 2014.
Remarks of President Barack Obama
Weekly Address
Princeton, Indiana
October 4, 2014
Hi, everybody. I’m at Millennium Steel in Princeton, Indiana, to have a town hall with workers on National Manufacturing Day. Because in many ways, manufacturing is the quintessential middle-class job. And after a decade of losing jobs, American manufacturing is once again adding them – more than 700,000 over the past four and a half years.
In fact, it’s been a bright spot as we keep fighting to recover from the great recession. Last month, our businesses added 236,000 new jobs. The unemployment rate fell to under six percent for the first time in more than six years. Over the past 55 months, our businesses have added 10.3 million new jobs. That’s the longest uninterrupted stretch of private sector job creation in our history. And we’re on pace to make 2014 the strongest year of job growth since the 1990s.
This progress has been hard, but it has been steady, and it is real. It is a direct result of the American people’s drive and determination, and decisions made by my administration.
During the last decade, people thought the decline in American manufacturing was inevitable. But we chose to invest in American auto industry and American workers. And today, an auto industry that was flatlining six years ago is building and selling new cars at the fastest pace in eight years. American manufacturing is growing almost twice as fast as the rest of the economy, with new factories opening their doors at the fastest pace in decades. That’s progress we can be proud of.
What’s also true is that too many families still work too many hours with too little to show for it. And the much longer and profound erosion of middle-class jobs and incomes isn’t something we’re going to reverse overnight. But there are ideas we should be putting into place that would grow jobs and wages faster right now. And one of the best would be to raise the minimum wage.
We’ve actually begun to see some modest wage growth in recent months. But most folks still haven’t seen a raise in over a decade. It’s time to stop punishing some of the hardest-working Americans. It’s time to raise the minimum wage. It would put more money in workers’ pockets. It would help 28 million Americans. Recent surveys show that a majority of small business owners support a gradual increase to ten dollars and ten cents an hour. The folks who keep blocking a minimum wage increase are running out of excuses. Let’s give America a raise.
Let’s do this – because it would make our economy stronger, and make sure that growth is shared. Rather than just reading about our recovery in a headline, more people will feel it in their own lives. And that’s when America does best. We do better when the middle class does better, and when more Americans have their way to climb into the middle class.
And that’s what drives me every single day. Thanks, and have a great weekend.
