Police in Myanmar leveled their first formal charges against Aung San Suu Kyi, accusing her of possessing illegally imported walkie talkies and giving the military authorities who staged a coup1 a legal reason to detain her for two weeks. The charge came to light two days after she was placed under house arrest and appeared to be an effort to lend a legal veneer2 to her detention3 though the generals have previously4 kept her and others locked up for years. State Department spokesman Ned Price said the Biden administration is calling on Myanmar to release Suu Kyi and other dissidents. "We call on the military to immediately release them all, and all the detained civilian5 and political leaders, journalists and detained human rights activists6, and to restore the democratically elected government to power...." The military announced Monday that it would take power for one year, accusing Suu Kyi's government of not investigating allegations of voter fraud in recent elections which her party overwhelmingly won.

缅甸警方首次对昂山素季提出正式指控,指控她非法进口对讲机,这给发动政变的军方当局一个合法理由将其拘留两周。这项指控是在她被软禁两天后揭露的,似乎是为了给她的拘禁披上法律外衣,尽管缅甸军方之前就已经把她和其他人关押了好几年。美国国务院发言人普莱斯表示,拜登政府呼吁缅甸释放昂山素季和其他异见人士。“我们呼吁缅甸军方立即释放他们所有人,释放所有被拘留的平民、政治领导人、记者和人权活动人士,并恢复民选政府的权力……”军方星期一宣布将掌权一年,指责昂山素季政府没有调查她所在的政党以压倒性优势赢得的最近选举中存在的选民舞弊指控。

A team of investigators7 working on behalf of the World Health Organization visited a major virus research laboratory in Wuhan, China, Wednesday. Reuters Flora8 Bradley Watson reports. Driving through thick morning mist, the team were bombarded by journalists' questions. Scientist Peter Daszak is the president of the EcoHealth Alliance: "We're looking forward to meeting the key people here and asking all the important questions that need to be asked." The Wuhan Institute of Virology has been the subject of several conspiracy9 theories. "Did you find anything inside?" Some claim that a leak from the lab caused Wuhan's first coronavirus outbreak at the end of 2019. But most scientists reject that hypothesis. There have, however, been calls for the lab to release details of all coronavirus samples studied there. The WHO's field work will last two weeks and has already taken them to hospitals and several markets in the central Chinese city. That's Reuters Flora Bradley Watson. You can find more on these stories and the rest of the day's news at voanews.com. Reporting by remote, I'm David Byrd, VOA news.

代表世界卫生组织的一组调查人员星期三访问了中国武汉的一个主要病毒研究实验室。请听路透社记者弗洛拉·布拉德利·沃森报道。驱车穿越浓浓的晨雾调查人员们受到了记者连珠炮似的提问。科学家彼得·达扎克是生态健康联盟的主席,他表示:“我们期待在这里与关键人物会面,并提出所有有必要询问的重要问题。”武汉病毒研究所一直是几个阴谋论的主题。“你们在里面发现什么了吗?”一些人声称,该实验室的泄漏导致了2019年底武汉首次爆发冠状病毒疫情。但大多数科学家拒绝这一假设。然而,有人呼吁实验室公布在那里研究的所有冠状病毒样本的细节。世卫组织的实地工作将持续两周,调查人员们已经去过了中国中部城市武汉的医院和几个市场。我是路透社记者弗洛拉·布拉德利·沃森。您可以通过网址voanews.com浏览更多相关新闻以及当天其他新闻。我是大卫·伯德,为您远程报道美国之音新闻。
