The court trying ousted1 Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi will hear its first testimony2 on Monday more than four months after a military coup3 that deposed4 her democratically elected government. The military junta5 that brought down the government February 1 has brought a raft of charges against the Nobel laureate who is the de-facto leader of Myanmar's democracy. The charges range from breaking a colonial-era secrecy6 law to illegally accepting 11 kilograms of gold. On Monday, her defense7 team will cross-examine witnesses over charges she improperly8 imported walkie-talkies and flouted9 coronavirus restrictions10 during last year's elections that her National League for Democracy won in a landslide11. Her lawyers who have been allowed to meet with her just twice since she was placed under house arrest have said they expect the trial to wrap up by July 26 with the hearings every Monday. If convicted of all charges, Aung San Suu Kyi, who is 75, faces more than a decade in jail. Near daily protests have rocked Myanmar since the coup removed her government from power in February after 10 years of democratic rule. The pro-democracy demonstrations12 have been met with a brutal13 military crackdown that has killed some 850 people, according to a local monitoring group.

对被赶下台的缅甸领导人昂山素季进行审判的法院周一将首度开庭听取证词,昂山素季的民选政府在四个多月前遭军事政变而被推翻。2月1日推翻缅甸政府的军政府对缅甸民主的实际领导人兼诺贝尔奖获得者提出了一系列指控。指控包括违反殖民地时期的保密法、非法收受11公斤黄金等。周一,昂山素季的辩护团队将对那些指控她在去年的选举(她所在的全国民主联盟以压倒性优势获胜)中非法进口对讲机并藐视冠状病毒限制的证人进行盘问。自昂山素季被软禁以来,她的律师只被允许与她会面两次。律师表示,他们预计审判将在7月26日结束,每周一举行听证会。如果所有指控罪名成立,现年75岁的昂山素季将面临10多年的监禁。自从民主统治了10年的昂山素季政府于今年2月遭政变推翻以来,缅甸几乎每天都有抗议活动发生。据当地一个监测组织称,民主派示威遭到了残酷的军事镇压,造成约850人死亡。

Israel swore a new government in on Sunday that ended the 12-year rule of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The new government has Naftali Bennett, the head of a small, religious ultranationalist party, at the head. He is now the new leader of the Jewish state. Bennett will be the prime minister for two years under a power-sharing agreement among eight political parties. Those parties have very little in common other than wanting to end the leadership of Netanyahu. Bennett is a former Netanyahu ally who served as his defense minister in 2019 and 2020. After two years, Bennett will be replaced for two years by Yair Lapid. He is a one-time finance minister and former TV news anchor who brokered14 the deal to get rid of Netanyahu. Lapid won the second-biggest vote total behind Netanyahu's Likud party last March. It was the fourth indecisive Israeli election in the past two years. U.S. President Biden has congratulated the new Israeli leaders. He says he looks forward to strengthening "all aspects of the close and enduring relationship" between the two nations.

以色列周日宣誓成立新政府,这结束了总理内塔尼亚胡长达12年的统治。新政府的领导人是一个小型宗教极端民族主义政党的领导人纳夫塔利·贝内特。他现在是这个犹太国家的新领导人。根据八个政党达成的权力分享协议,贝内特将担任总理两年。这些政党除了希望结束内塔尼亚胡的领导之外,没有什么共同点。贝内特是内塔尼亚胡的前盟友,曾在2019年和2020年担任内塔尼亚胡的国防部长。亚尔·拉皮德会在两年后接替贝内特担任总理两年。亚尔·拉皮德曾担任财政部长和前电视新闻主播,并促成了摆脱内塔尼亚胡的协议。去年三月,拉皮德赢得了仅次于内塔尼亚胡的利库德集团的第二多选票。这是过去两年来以色列第四次不分胜负的选举。美国总统拜登向以色列新领导人表示祝贺。拜登表示,他期待着加强两国之间“密切且悠久的关系”。

British Foreign Minister Dominic Raab criticized the European Union Sunday for treating Northern Ireland as if it were a separate country rather than part of the United Kingdom. He said that approach is causing damage to the British province. Britain's Telegraph newspaper reported French President Emmanuel Macron had suggested Northern Ireland was not part of the United Kingdom during his meeting with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

英国外交部长拉布星期天批评欧盟把北爱尔兰当作一个独立的国家,而不是英国的一部分。他说,这种做法正在给北爱尔兰这一英国行政区造成损害。英国《每日电讯报》报道说,法国总统马克龙在会见英国首相鲍里斯·约翰逊时曾暗示北爱尔兰不是英国的一部分。我是玛丽莎·梅尔顿,为您远程报到美国之音新闻。
