The Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko has called on his country's Security Council and Parliament to annul1 a law that grants?special?status to two breakaway regions in?the?east. The announcement came after the rebels held elections on Sunday in the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Luhansk Republics. Polls at the Ukraine and the West have denounced it as illegal but the Russia has backed. Mr. Poroshenko said he'd also mobilized a number of army units to prevent any possible attack by Russian-backed rebels.

The International Monetary2 Fund's own watchdog has criticized the agency saying it called off austerity too soon after the financial crisis. A new?report?from the IMF's independent valuation office says the advice was less effective in promoting recovery and was detrimental3 to emerging markets. Our economics correspondent Andrew Walker report, explains.?
国际货币基金组织监督部门批评该机构称自金融危机开始之后其取消紧缩政策决定过于急躁。来自国际货币基金组织独立评估办公室的最新报道称这一决定并没有起到很好的经济复苏效果，并不利于恢复市场经济繁荣。下面是本台金融记者Andrew Walker发回的报道。
The report suggested that at the height of the crisis the IMF essentially4 got it right by advising governments to use their budget to stimulate5 a recovery; where the IMF went wrong, the report argues, was encoring for that to be reversed too soon. The report says that much of the research including the IMF's own suggested that government tax and spending policies are particularly effective following a financial crisis. Instead the IMF advised using interest rates and the policy on its quantitative6 easing which, the report argues, were less likely to work.
这一报道认为国际货币基金组织在经济危机发生的时刻建议政府利用预算刺激经济复苏的决定是正确的，错误的是过早的实行紧缩政策。报道指出大部分研究包括国际货币激进组织自己的建议，表明金融危机发生之后政府税收和指出政策运行良好。相反，国际货币基金组织建议采用利率和定量宽松政策之后国际经济反而出现不好现象，称这一决策并不利于世界经济的好转。
The Mexican authorities have captured the fugitive7 mayor and his wife who were suspected of involvement in the disappearance8 of 43 students in the southwestern city of Iguala in late September. Police arrested them in Mexican City. From there our correspondent Will Grant reports.?
墨西哥当局逮捕涉嫌参与九月下旬伊瓜拉市西南部失踪的43名学生事件的在逃市长及其妻子。警方在墨西哥城逮捕两人。下面是本台记者Will Grant发回的报道。
Jose Luis Abarca and his wife Maria de los Angeles Pineda disappeared in the days immediately after the 43 students went missing. Now some five weeks after they fled, they have been detained by Federal Police in an early morning operation in Mexican City. The government will hope the arrest shed some light on the whereabouts of missing students and teachers who were last seen in the hands of local police officers. The young people were abducted9 after a protest in Iguala in September. One theory as to the motive10 was that they were disrupting plans the mayor's wife had for an event in the town the following day.
