The American Secretary of State John Kerry has warned Syria the plans for it to hand over its chemical weapons are not a game. At a news conference, ahead of the talks with his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov, Mr. Kerry said Syria's actions had to be real, comprehensive and timely. From Geneva where the two men have met, Paul Adam reports.

美国国务卿约翰·克里警告叙利亚，要求其交出化学武器的计划并非游戏。在与俄罗斯外长谢尔盖·拉夫罗夫会谈之前的新闻发布会上，克里说叙利亚必须采取切实、综合性的及时行动。保罗·亚当在日内瓦报道。

“Sergei Lavrov and John Kerry have launched a process full of high expectations and profound skepticism. The Russian Foreign Minister said a successful outcome would make a strike on Syria unnecessary and he voiced the hope that it might also serve to brave life into a wider political process. John Kerry was emphatic, only the threat of force had persuaded Syria to acknowledge its chemical arsenal, and in a direct reference to President Assad's interview on Russian television in which the Syrian leader spoke of, what he called, a standard procedure for handing over documents relating to chemical weapons within 30 days. Mr. Kerry said there was nothing standard about this process.”

“人们对谢尔盖·拉夫罗夫和约翰·克里的会谈满怀很高的期待和深深的怀疑，俄罗斯外长说，如果得出圆满结果，那么就没有必要打击叙利亚了，他还希望进入范围更广的政治进程。约翰·克里言辞坚决，他说只有以武力威胁才能劝说叙利亚承认拥有化学武器，他直接引用阿萨德总统接受俄罗斯电视台的采访，这位叙利亚领导人提到在30天内递交与化武有关文件的标准程序。克里说这一程序根本无标准可言。”

Under its terms, Syria has 60 days to provide a detailed inventory of all its chemical weapons agents related munitions and production facilities. The Assad regime would have to detail the exact locations of its stockpiles, and open them to inspection by the international watchdog, the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons.”

“该公约于90年代早期编成法典，并只得到五个国家的认可，公约禁止生产、储备和使用致命武器。根据其条款，叙利亚需要在60天内交出一份有关其化学武器弹药和生产设施的详细盘点清单。阿萨德政权将必须说清楚库存的确切地址，并允许禁止化武组织—国际观察机构进行检查。”

A judge in London has allowed a Muslim woman to appear at a court hearing wearing her veil. It's thought to be the first time that this has been allowed in an English courtroom. Last month, the judge said he couldn't allow the woman to enter a plea to a charge of intimidating a witness while she was wearing the veil, because he couldn't be certain she was really the defendant.

NASA has confirmed that the Voyager-1 spacecraft has become the first man-made object to leave the solar system. The probe was launched 36 years ago, but scientists believe it left our solar system last August; it's now nearly 19 billion kilometers from Earth in what's known as interstellar space, a cold, dark part of the Milky Way. The Voyager-1 will continue to chart this unknown realm of space, sending back pictures and messages until its power supply runs out in about 10 years time. The announcement was made today at NASA's headquarters in Washington by Ed Stone, project scientist for the Voyager mission.
