The Venezuelan opposition1 leader Henrique Capriles has criticized president Nicolas Maduro for declaring a state of emergency last week. Mr. Capriles said the decree giving Mr. Maduro extra powers to deal with the country's economic crises was unconstitutional and he said the president should stand down. The moment of choose is coming. It's time to decide if you with the constitution or with Maduro. And that’s the decision that Venezuelan arm forces will have to make. We don't want a military solution. That's why we are seeking a removal of the president. Mr. Maduro had accused the United of States of leading a plot to deploy2 foreign troops in his country and force him from office.
The US senate has passed a bill which would allow families of the victims of the 9·11 attacks on New York and Washington to sue the government of Saudi Arabia.

Mexico’s president Enrique Pena Nieto has announced proposals to reform the constitution to allow same-sex marriages across the country. The president’s move follows the supreme3 court ruling last year that declared a ban on such unions unconstitutional. Speaking at National day against homophobia, Mr. Pena Nieto said he would seek to enshrine same-sex marriage in the Mexican constitution and federal civil code. At this event, I will sign an initiative to reform the constitution to incorporate with all clarity the opinions of nation’s supreme court to recogonize it as a human right that people can answering his marriage without any kind of discrimination.

The US Senate has approved a bill to provide more than a billion dollars to combat Zika virus which can cause serious birth defects. It might fall short to the 1.9 billion that had been demanded by President Obama. Gary O'Donoghue reports. The White House has already borrowed 600 million dollars from a pot set aside for Ebola, insisting that was only a stop gap measure. Since then, Republicans have been arguing that the administration doesn't need as much money as it claims for Zika, and the spending should be at least in part offset8 with cuts in other areas. Now the Senate has passed it by partisan9 funding measure, short of what the president wants, but significantly more than the Republican controlled House of Representatives was proposing. That means the two measures will have to be reconciled in some way. You are listening to the world news from the BBC.
The presumptive of Republican nominee10 for the US presidency11 Donald Trump12 has outlined the wide range of his policies including plans to speaking with North Korea's leader and re-negociate the Paris climate accord.

United States has eased some sanctions on Myanmar, but it has retained its sanctions against the Burmese military. The BBC's Jonah Fisher reports from Yangon.

Despite November's election and subsequent handover of power, the army retains a major political role and continues to participate in ethnic15 conflicts and commit human rights of uses.

You know you are so intimidated18 by the fire and smoke that, you know, you just want to get out of there.

美放宽对缅甸制裁，但未放宽对缅军事制裁。请听本台记者约拿·菲舍尔从仰光发回的报道。美方此举旨在支持政界领袖昂山素季。在昂山新政府领导下，多家国有企业和银行已被清除出“特定制裁名单”。但一些与缅甸军方有直接联系的企业仍受制裁。尽管去年11月大选和军政府交权，但军政府在缅甸政坛地位仍不可撼动，仍继续参与种族冲突，践踏人权事件频发。
