President Goodluck Jonathan was very happy to receive this offer and ready to move on it immediately. And we are immediately engaging in order to implement1 this.

Washington has imposed sanctions on two military commanders in South Sudan, one man each side of the conflict. As Barbara Plett Usher2 reports.
华盛顿对南苏丹两名军事指挥官进行制裁，这两人分别属于冲突双方。芭芭拉·皮莱特·亚瑟报道。
The sanctions targeted a senior rebel General and a commander of South Sudan presidential guards. Both are proved, the US said, led violent attacks against civilians3 in fighting that killed thousands and displaced more than a million. On the recent tour to Africa, the Secretary of State John Kerry had warned the possible sanctions against rebel leader, Riek Machar, if he refused to join peace talks later this week, but he has now apparently4 signaled willingness to participate. Still the sanction showed deep US frustration5 with South Sudan, a country it'd helped to create and into which it has poured vast amounts of aid.
制裁是针对一名高级叛军将领和南苏丹总统警卫指挥的。美国称事实证明在导致数千人丧生、一百多万人流离失所的战斗中，两人都是针对平民的暴力袭击的领导者。国务卿约翰·克里在最近南非访问中警告说，如果叛军领袖Riek Machar拒绝加入下周的和谈，可能将对他实施制裁，但他显然显然表示愿意参加。不过制裁已经说明美国对南苏丹的深深失望，因为美国给这个国家提供了大量援助。

俄罗斯外长谢尔盖·拉夫罗夫说，除非亲俄罗斯反对组织参加，否则在乌克兰进行新的谈判毫无意义。拉夫罗夫说，如果派遣乌克兰军队来对付部分人口，那么本月计划举行的总统选举将是不寻常的。乌克兰内政部长Andriy Deshchytsia说他的政府不支持与亲俄罗斯组织协商。
We consider that these groups are terrorist and extremists. Because how you can call the people who are seizing the buildings and terrorized people. If these people will surrender and leave the buildings, these gunmen will know that I will offer amnesty for them.
我们认为这些组织是恐怖分子和极端分子，因为这些人占领政府大楼，并对恐吓人民。如果他们投降并离开大楼，我就会赦免他们。
