新西蘭37歲女總理宣布懷孕消息

Jacinda Ardern, New Zealand’s prime minister, has announced she is pregnant with her first child, due in June.

新西蘭總理杰辛達(dá)•阿德恩(Jacinda Ardern)宣布已懷孕，這是她的第一個孩子，將于今年6月出生。

Ms Ardern, 37, a former policy adviser to Tony Blair became one of her country’s youngest prime ministers and the third woman to lead a government there after the Labour party’s election victory last year.

去年，在工黨(Labour party)選舉獲勝之后，曾任托尼•布萊爾(Tony Blair)政策顧問、37歲的阿德恩成為新西蘭最年輕的總理之一，也是該國歷史上第三位女總理。

The prime minister confirmed the news via her Facebook page, adding that partner Clarke Gayford will take up the mantle of stay-at-home dad:

這位總理在她的Facebook頁面上證實了懷孕消息，并補充稱，她的伴侶克拉克•蓋福德(Clarke Gayford)將成為全職爸爸(題圖為阿德恩和蓋福德)。

The September election ushered in the first Labour-led coalition in almost a decade, with the party in October forming a coalition with the nationalist New Zealand First party. Ms Ardern has focused on delivering public services as well as toughening immigration and foreign ownership rules.

去年9月的選舉迎來了近10年的首個工黨領(lǐng)導(dǎo)下的聯(lián)盟，工黨在10月與民族主義的新西蘭優(yōu)先黨(New Zealand First party)組建了聯(lián)合政府。阿德恩已把精力放在了提供公共服務(wù)、以及收緊移民和外資持股規(guī)則方面。

Deputy prime minister and leader of New Zealand First Winston Peters has been asked to take over as acting prime minister for six weeks when the baby is born.

副總理、新西蘭優(yōu)先黨領(lǐng)袖溫斯頓•彼特斯(Winston Peters)已被要求在阿德恩產(chǎn)后的6周內(nèi)代行總理職責(zé)。

In an FT Magazine piece published in December, Ms Ardern laid out the importance of having more women in politics.

在去年12月出版的一篇《FT周末》雜志(FT Magazine)文章中，阿德恩提到了讓更多女性從政的重要性。
