俄总理梅德韦杰夫率团访问克里米亚

　　Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev is in Crimea - the most senior Russian to visit the region since Russia seized it from Ukraine earlier this month.

　　俄罗斯总理梅德韦杰夫在克里米亚访问，他是俄罗斯3月早些时候吞并乌克兰的克里米亚之后去当地访问的最高级的俄罗斯官员。

　　Mr. Medvedev says he is leading a delegation of Russian officials for a meeting on what he calls the "development" of the peninsula.

　　梅德韦杰夫说，他率领的俄罗斯官员代表团将讨论他所谓的克里米亚发展问题。

　　The prime minister says Russia will create a special economic zone in Crimea, offering incentives for business with lower taxes and simpler rules. Mr. Medvedev also promised to boost salaries and pensions in Crimea.

　　他宣布俄罗斯将在克里米亚建立特别经济区，通过减少税收和简化规章制度来刺激工商业发展。他还承诺给克里米亚人提高工资和退休金。

　　His meeting Monday comes a day after U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry demanded Russia pull back thousands of its troops massed along the eastern and southern Ukrainian border.

　　一天前，美国国务卿克里呼吁俄罗斯撤回沿乌克兰东部和南部边界集结的数千俄军部队。

　　Kerry told Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in Paris Sunday that the troops are creating a "climate of fear" in Ukraine and that their presence does nothing for diplomacy.

　　他星期天在巴黎对俄罗斯外长拉夫罗夫说，这些军队在乌克兰境内造成“恐惧气氛”，不利于外交对话。
