Ukraine Forces Holding Out as Russia Moves on Crimean Bases 俄罗斯军队进入克里米亚基地时乌克兰军队撤离

SEVASTOPOL, CRIMEA — Russian forces have been seizing Ukrainian military bases and warships in Crimea as Moscow finalizes its annexation of the Black Sea peninsula. While Ukraine prepares to move its forces out of Crimea, however, some Ukrainian military holdouts are not bowing to pressure and are refusing to leave.

The Slavutich is the last remaining navy ship under the Ukrainian flag in the bay of Sevastopol.

Slavutich号是Sevastopol港口最后一艘挂有乌克兰国旗的海军舰船。

Russian ships are blocking it, as the Russian military quickly takes over Crimea.

俄罗斯舰队全部驶入港口,俄罗斯军队也迅速接管克里米亚。

Local fishermen, just meters from the standoff, do not mind if the Ukranian navy stays or leaves, said fishermen Igor."Russia used to pay for Sevastopol, for their ships anchored here. Now, let them [Ukrainian navy] pay."

当地的渔民,刚得知僵局后的结果,不在乎乌克兰海军的去或留,渔民Igor表示。“俄罗斯经常为他们的船停留在这付钱,现在,让乌克兰海军来付钱吧。”

A short drive away at Belbek Airforce base,pro-Russia forces are pressuring Ukraine’s remaining military to pack up and leave.

在Belbek空军基地附近,亲俄军队迫使乌克兰滞留的军队打包离开。

Colonel Yuliy Manchur, commander of the base, said,"Currently on the airfield there are 10 to 12 armored personnel carriers trained on us.They are staying and waiting for an order. The probability of storming is very high.So we are staying here and waiting."

Colonel Yuliy Manchur,基地指挥官表示,“现在,在机场有十到十二艘武装人员运输车正在我们面前训练。他们留在这并且等待命令,发生冲突的可能性非常高。所以我们留在这并且等待。”

Northwest of Crimea’s capital Simferopol, several more Ukrainian ships refuse to surrender,even though Russian troops now control Donuzlav naval base.

克里米亚首府Simferopol的西北方,很多乌克兰舰船拒绝投降,尽管现在俄罗斯军队控制着Donuzlav海军基地。

Many servicemen are tired of Russian pressure and feel betrayed by the silencefrom their commanders and Kyiv’s interim government. They include Sergei.

很多技工开始厌倦俄罗斯的压力并且感觉被他们指挥官的安静背叛了同时也包括被基辅的临时政府背叛了,其中一人就是Sergei。

"We were offered to make a choice until 1200 [1000GMT] whether we stay in Ukraine,loyal to Ukraine’s oath, or whether we switch to the Russian side.As for me, I have made a decision to quit the naval forces for good and not to serve anyone,"

“我们被要求在1000格林威治标准时间之前作出选择是否留在乌克兰,是否对乌克兰的誓言保持忠诚,或者是否转向俄罗斯的一边,对于我来说,我已经决定永远离开海军并不再效忠任何人。”

Sevastopol was for decades a shared Navy headquarters.Despite Ukraine’s leaders’ insisting they will keep Crimea,Russia has made it clear it has no intention of letting this catch get away.

 

Sevastopol已经作为共享的海军总部好几十年了。尽管乌克兰的领导人坚持他们将会继续持有克里米亚,俄罗斯已经明确没有任何让克里米亚离开的意图。
