烏克蘭總理亞采紐克宣布辭職

Ukraine’s Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk said Sunday he is resigning. His decision may permit a new government to be formed, possibly ending the country’s political crisis.

烏克蘭總理阿爾謝尼·亞采紐克于周日表示他將辭職。他的這一決定或促成新一屆政府組建，結束國家政治危機。

Yatsenyuk spoke on television and wrote on the social networking site Twitter. He said he will give hisresignation to parliament on Tuesday. He said he hopes his decision to leave office will permit Ukraine to make changes to its constitution and to its electoral and judicial systems. He said he hopes the country can then join the European Union and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.

亞采紐克在電視講話和其社交網站Twitter中宣布辭去總理一職，并表示將于12日將相關提案提交最高拉達(議會)審議。他希望他這一決定能促進烏克蘭改變當前政治結構，選舉和司法體制。他希望烏克蘭可以加入歐盟和北大西洋公約組織。

Yatsenyuk has been criticized for not being able to improve the country’s economy and for not moving fast enough to make political changes.

亞采紐克被指責沒有改善國家經濟，沒有盡快改變政治體制。

If members of parliament are unable to choose a new prime minister, a new election could be held. But President Petro Poroshenko does not want another election. He believes a new vote could worsen the country’s security situation.

若國會中無法選出一位新總理，將舉辦一次選舉。但亞采紐克總理并不希望在舉辦一次選舉。他堅信一次新的選舉將使烏克蘭的安全情況惡化。
