英国新闻听力 希腊成为首个债务违约发达国家（在线收听）

Hello, I’m Sue Montgomery with the BBC news.

Greece has become the first advanced economy ever to go into arrears with the International Monetary Fund. It’s failed to pay back 1.6 billion Euros to the IMF and its international bailout agreement has also expired. From Brussels, Chris Morris.

“This is not how international diplomacy or finance is supposed to be conducted. A series of last minute proposals are in an atmosphere of mountain chaos. At the end of a topsy-turvy day, another Greek request for an extension to its current bailout has been rejected. But there will be more exploratory talks on whether a third bailout is an achievable aim. Without one, Greece is in dire straits, cut off from all international financing, and skating on dangerously thin ice. If it can’t repay a debt to the European Central Bank on July 20 that would probably be the end. It’s already failed to pay the IMF on schedule and it’s running out of options to keep it in the Euro zone.”

The Greek Economy Minister George Stathakis says the government will continue to look for solutions to the Greek problem despite its latest bailout request being rejected. He told the BBC that he thought the solution was sure be found that kept Greece within the EU. “I am quite relaxed because I think that what most of the time we are talking about make sense. It’s rational, it’s compromising solutions. And I think that whatever else is highly dangerous, and I don’t think that anybody would try to follow the very dangers, but which is a huge cost for the Greek society and the European economy.”

The United States officials say the US and Cuba have reached a deal to reopen embassies in Washington and Havana. The deal is a major milestone in a process which began with secret negotiations and took off last December when both presidents announced a thaw in relations.

The world’s biggest greenhouse gas emitter China has for the first time made a commitment to the United Nations to try and produce 20% of its energy from renewable sources within 5 years. Roger Harrabin reports.

“China’s beset by pollution from the industries that have lifted the nation out of poverty. Smog closes airports, there is a war against desertification. Now China has announced its solution. It involves getting 20% of its energy from renewable sources by 2020 and ensuring its emissions of carbon dioxide peak by 2030 at the latest and increasing its forests. Previously, China considered pollution its sovereign concern. This is the first time it’s made its commitments to the United Nations. It’s part of the great endeavor to tackle climate change at the UN climate summit later this year.”

The governor of California Jerry Brown has signed a new law requiring all children in the state to be vaccinated against measles from next year. Previously, parents were allowed to refuse immunization for the children for personal reasons. It follows an outbreak of measles in Disneyland which affected more than a hundred people. America was declared free of measles 15 years ago, but health officials say increasing numbers of parents were declining for vaccination driven by fears of possible side effects.

希腊成为未偿还国际货币基金组织(IMF)债务的首个发达经济体。希腊未向IMF偿还16亿欧元的债务，其国际救助协议也已过期。布鲁塞尔，Chris Morris报道。

“国际外交或金融不应该出现这样的行为。一系列最后的提议在一片混乱的氛围中出炉。在乱七八糟的一天结束时，希腊再次提出的延长目前救助措施的请求被拒绝。但是，各方会进行更多探索性对话讨论第三次救助是否可行。如果没有救助，希腊就会陷入困境，与所有国际金融救助隔绝，如履薄冰。如果不能在7月20日前偿还欧洲中央银行的债务，这可能会是结束。希腊已经未能按期偿还IMF的债务，要继续留在欧元区，希腊已经别无选择。”

希腊经济部长乔治·斯塔萨基斯(George Stathakis)表示，尽管其最新的救助请求遭拒，政府会继续寻找希腊问题的解决方案。他告诉BBC，他相信一定能找到让希腊继续留在欧元区的解决方法。“我非常放松，因为我认为，我们一直以来讨论的话题都是有意义的，都是理性的，妥协性的解决方案。我认为其他的提议都非常危险，我不认为其他人会铤而走险，但是希腊社会和欧洲经济将付出巨大的代价。”
