The UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has opened a global summit on refugees with a call for bold action to address the plight of tens of millions of people forced to flee their homes by conflict or persecution. He urged delegates at the meeting in Geneva to help the humanitarian spirit prevail over those who seem determined to extinguish it. At a time when the right to asylum is under assault, when so many borders and doors are being closed to refugees, when even child refugees can be divided from their families, we need to reaffirm human rights of refugees.
联合国秘书长安东尼奥•古特雷斯召开了全球难民峰会,呼吁各方采取积极行动,解决因冲突或迫害而被迫逃离家园的数千万难民的困境。他敦促日内瓦会议的代表们发挥人道主义精神战胜那些反人道主义的人。现在难民避难的权利受到了侵犯,多国的边境和大门都不对难民开发,难民的子女也被迫与家人分离,这时候我们需要重申难民的人权。

A special court in Pakistan has sentenced the former President Pervez Musharraf to death for high treason. It is the first military ruler to be convicted of this crime. General Musharraf has been living in Dubai since 2016 and is unlikely to return. Secunder Kermani reports. General Pervez Musharraf was accused of treason for having declared a state of emergency in Pakistan in 2007 as he was facing widespread opposition to his rule. The case has dragged on since 2013 with Mr. Musharraf having spent the past three years living in Dubai claiming to be in need of medical treatment there. Despite the fact it is unlikely to be carried out, this death sentence is uNPRecedented. Pakistan's powerful military have controlled the country directly or indirectly for much of its existence, but no other ruling general has ever faced this kind of trial.
巴基斯坦一家特别法庭以叛国罪判处前总统佩尔韦兹•穆沙拉夫死刑。他也是第一个被判处此罪的军方领导人。穆沙拉夫将军自2016年以来一直住在迪拜,不太可能回来了。以下是赛康德•科芒尼的报道。穆沙拉夫将军被控叛国罪,因为他在2007年宣布巴基斯坦进入紧急状态,当时他的统治遭到了广泛反对。自2013年以来,此案一直在拖延中,过去三年里,穆沙拉夫一直住在迪拜,声称需要在那里接受治疗。尽管该判决不太可能执行,但这种对领导人的死刑也是前所未有的。巴基斯坦强大的军队大多数时候都在直接或间接地控制着这个国家,但是之前没有军方领导人曾面临过这种审判。
