本周国际要闻——政治
The worst flooding to hit Europe since the second world war left at least 200 people dead, with many more still unaccounted for. The bulk of the deaths occurred in Germany, where days of exceptionally heavy rains caused rivers to burst their banks. Belgium saw at least 36 deaths. Germany’s complex federal system, with responsibility divided between federal, state and local governments, seems to have been a big part of the problem. Early-warning systems failed.
欧洲遭遇二战以来最严重的洪灾，造成至少200人死亡，还有更多的人仍下落不明。大部分死亡发生在德国，那里连续几天的暴雨导致河流决堤。比利时至少有36人死亡。德国复杂的联邦体系，即联邦、州和地方政府之间各负其责，似乎是问题的主要原因。预警系统没有发挥作用。
Flooding caused by torrential rain forced the evacuation of more than 200,000 people in China’s central province of Henan. In three days a year’s worth of rain fell on the city of Zhengzhou, filling underground railway tunnels. Hundreds of commuters who had been trapped on trains in water over their waists were eventually rescued; 12 of them died.

Ariel Henry was sworn in as Haiti’s new prime minister, after Claude Joseph stepped down as interim leader. This came two weeks after the assassination of the president, Jovenel Moise, who had handed over leadership to Mr Henry just before his death. Mr Joseph returned to his role as foreign minister.
克劳德·约瑟夫辞去海地临时总理一职后，阿里尔·亨利宣誓就任海地新总理。这发生在莫伊兹总统遇刺两周后，他在去世前将领导权移交给了亨利。约瑟夫重新担任外交部长一职。
Pedro Castillo was declared president-elect of Peru. The electoral authority made the announcement several weeks after he won the vote in a tight race and after it had assessed allegations of electoral fraud made by his right-wing rival, Keiko Fujimori. She now says she will accept the result.
佩德罗·卡斯蒂略当选秘鲁总统。选举委员会在他于激烈的竞选中获胜几周后宣布了这一结果，此前他的右翼对手藤森庆子曾指控选举舞弊，委员会对该指控进行了评估。藤森庆子现在表示将接受选举结果。
