Representatives of Pakistan's ruling coalition government have failed to agree on a plan for reinstating judges deposed by President Pervez Musharraf, last year. Following the collapse of talks in London, Sunday, party leaders are meeting in Islamabad to discuss the coalition's fate.
巴基斯坦联合政府的成员无法就一项恢复巴基斯坦高级法官职务的计划达成一致。总统穆沙拉夫去年解除了这些法官的职务。星期天的伦敦会谈破裂后，巴基斯坦政党领导人星期一在伊斯兰堡举行会议，讨论联合政府的前途。
The process of reinstating senior judges sacked by President Musharraf, last November, has been the top issue for Pakistan's ruling coalition and the subject of numerous talks in recent months.
如何恢复去年11月被穆沙拉夫总统解职的高级法官的职务是联合政府的首要议题，也是最近几个月来一系列会谈的主题。
Following the latest round of negotiations in London, Sunday, Pakistan Muslim League-N leader Nawaz Sharif said, despite "sincere efforts," the parties were unable to resolve the deadlock before Monday's self-imposed deadline for an accord.
星期天在伦敦举行最后一轮谈判之后，巴基斯坦穆斯林联盟--谢里夫派的领导人纳瓦兹.谢里夫说，尽管他们做出“真诚的努力”，但是在各党派给自己定下的最后期限星期一之前，各个党派仍然无法排除障碍、达成协议。
The main disagreement is over which supreme court justices to empower. Sharif's party wants to restore the deposed justices and have them decide whether to retain those justices appointed by Mr. Musharraf under the provisional constitution. The Pakistan People's Party argues Mr. Musharraf's appointed judges, also called PCO judges, should remain in power.
主要的分歧是，最高法院未来由哪些法官掌控。谢里夫的政党希望，恢复那些被解职的法官的职务，让他们来决定，由穆沙拉夫总统指派的那些法官是否能够保留他们的职位。与此同时，巴基斯坦人民党认为，穆沙拉夫根据临时宪法指派的那些法官应当保留他们的职位。
Aitzaz Ahsan is a leader of the lawyer's movement which has long demanded the deposed judges be reinstated, as soon as possible. During a protest in Islamabad, Monday, he said he is unhappy with the passing of Monday's deadline.
艾察兹.阿赫森是巴基斯坦律师运动的负责人，他们很长时间以来一直要求尽快给被解职的法官恢复职务。星期一他在伊斯兰堡举行示威活动时说，错过星期一的最后期限让他很不满意。
"We strongly condemn the fact that the judges have not been reinstated
and we will oppose forces trying to keep the PCO judges in place," he said.
阿赫森说：“我们强烈谴责法官至今没有恢复职务这一事实，我们反对企图让被指派的法官继续留任的政治力量。”
Members of Sharif's party have threatened to abandon the coalition government, if the judges were not reinstated by Monday. Other members say the party could abandon its seats in the cabinet, but continue to support the government, led by the Pakistan People's Party.
谢里夫政党的成员威胁说，如果高级法官到星期一还没有复职，他们就要退出联合政府。其他一些成员说，他们的政党可能会放弃内阁席位，但是仍将继续支持巴基斯坦人民党领导的政府。
The PML-N party is expected to announce its decision later Monday. |
