Happy Saint Patrick's Day.Welcome to our March, 17th edition of CNN STUDENT NEWS.I'm Carl Azuz.First up, voters in Crimea went to the polls yesterday and overwhelmingly chose to become part of Russia?The local government is sending a delegation to Moscow to apply for that.Russia welcomes the vote and will likely be willing to redraw its borders.But Ukraine, the European Union and the United States, all say the vote doesn't count.That a region of Ukraine can't just break away from the rest of the country and become part of another one.Ukraine's been divided over whether to forge closer ties with Europe or Russia.Its former president favored Russia, but violent protests in the capital led to his ouster last month.Now, with the U.S. and European Union supporting a unified Ukraine and Russia supporting Crimea's secession,the country's political future is unclear.There's still no sign of a Malaysian Airlines plane that vanished in mid- flight more than a week ago.But U.S. intelligence officials think the captain and copilot might have had something to do with the disappearance, that it was not an accident.Part of the reason, the plane stopped transmitting information at what one official called the perfect place to disappear.Investigators have taken a flight simulator from the captain's house.They are examining that for clues.The search now includes 25 countries, the area is tremendous.Take off from Kuala Lumpur 12:41 a.m. local time last Saturday, Flight 370 headed north along its planned route to Beijing.
圣帕特里克节快乐。欢迎收看3月17日的CNN学生新闻。我是卡尔・阿祖兹。首先,克里米亚的选民们昨天参加投票,获得压倒性的胜利选择成为俄罗斯的一部分?当地政府派出一个代表团前往莫斯科申请。俄罗斯对投票表示欢迎而且可能会愿意重划边界。但乌克兰,欧盟和美国都表示不认可投票。乌克兰的一个地区不能脱离这个国家成为成为他国的另一部分。乌克兰一直就是否与欧洲还是俄罗斯建立更紧密的联系产生分歧。这个国家的前总统青睐俄罗斯,但上个月在首都的暴力抗议导致他下台。现在,美国和欧盟支持统一的乌克兰而俄罗斯支持克里米亚半岛的分裂,这个国家的政治前景仍不明朗。一个多星期前的马来西亚航空公司飞机在飞行中的消失仍然没有迹象。但美国情报官员认为机长和副驾驶员可能与消失有关,而且这并非一次意外。部分解释是飞机在一位官员所说的完美消失的地方停止发送信号。调查人员已经将机长家中的飞行模拟器带走进行调查。他们正在研究其中的线索。现在的搜索包括25个国家,面积令人震惊。马航370航班上周六从吉隆坡当地时间12:41起飞,按预定计划向北飞行前往北京。
