Hello, I'm Eileen McKue with the BBC News.
The French President Emmanuel Macron has said G7 industrial nations have agreed a fund of twenty-two million dollars which countries in the Amazon region can use to fight the forest fires raging there. He also said an international initiative for the Amazon would be launched in the coming months at the United Nations, which would examine how to reforest damaged areas. Mr. Macron has clashed with Brazil's President Jair Bolsonaro over the issue.
法国总统埃马纽埃尔•马克龙表示,G7集团已同意提供2200万美元的资金,亚马逊地区内的国家可以用这笔资金来扑灭肆虐的森林大火。他还表示,未来几个月将在联合国发起一项针对亚马逊的国际倡议,研究如何在受损地区重新造林。马克龙与巴西总统博尔索纳罗在这个问题上发生了冲突。

Kenya's President Uhuru Kenyatta has overseen the launch of the country's first export shipment of crude oil from the port of Mombasa.

The company extracting the oil estimates that Kenya has potential reserves of more than half a billion barrels.

Indonesia's President Joko Widodo has announced that the country's new capital will be built on the island of Borneo. With more details, here's Tracy Berchan.
印度尼西亚总统佐科•维多多宣布,该国的新首都将建在婆罗洲岛。以下是崔西•波臣的详细报道。

President Widodo said the move was a matter of urgency. Jakarta, the current capital is a n overcrowded, traffic choke city that is sinking fast. East Kalimantan in Indonesia on Borneo has been chosen as the new seat of government for various reasons. It's geographically in the center of the country's archipelago and it's relatively free of volcanoes and the threat of earthquakes. The president said the relocation project would cost around thirty-three billion dollars. However, Borneo is home to dense rain forests and environmental groups are concerns that building a new capital there will harm wildlife habitats. Tracy Berchan.
印尼总统维多多表示,这一行动十分紧迫。目前的首都雅加达拥挤不堪,交通堵塞,并且这个城市正在快速地下沉。位于印度尼西亚婆罗岛上的东加里曼丹因各种原因被选为新的政府所在地。它在地理上处于该国群岛的中心,相对来说没有火山和地震的威胁。印尼总统表示,搬迁工程将耗资大约330亿美元。然而,婆罗岛拥有茂密的雨林,环保组织担心在那里修建新首都会损害野生动物的栖息地。崔西•波臣报道。

The French President Emmanuel Macron has attacked his Brazilian counterpart Jair Bolsonaro for making what he called extremely disrespectful comments about his wife Brigitte.
