图片新闻【18】New currency for a New World

TONY BLAIR yesterday gave his strongest singnal that he wants to join the European single currency within four years as he outlined his vision of a new world order rising from the ashes of the terrorist attacks on America.

托尼.布莱尔昨天发出了最强烈的信号，在阐述自己对于一个新的世界秩序正在从美国恐怖袭击事件的灰烬中冉冉升起的观点时说，他打算在四年任期内使英国加入欧洲单一货币体系。

After months of sending out conflicting messages on the euro, he indicated that he would use his enhanced authority as a war leader and the changed world circumstances since September 11 to argue for greater co-operation with Europe.

在有关欧元的问题上连续几个月表露彼此矛盾的信息后，布莱尔表示他要利用自“911”事件后其权力身份上升为“战时首相”和发生了变化的世界形势，来争取与欧洲大陆的更多合作。

In the most impressive speech he has made as Prime Minister, he prepared the country for military action against Afghanistan's Taliban rulers, saying that the civilised world must defeat the terrorism unleashed by Osama bin Laden.

在这次他继任首相以来最令人难忘的演讲中，他号召英国准备好向阿富汗塔利班当权者发起军事行动，强调整个文明世界必须击败奥萨马?本?拉登发动的恐怖攻击。

But he held out a conciliatory hand to the Afghan people. He promised that, if the Taliban were toppled, the international community would work to ensure that the next regime was broad-based, as well as giving aid to help refugees survive the winter.

不过，与此同时，他向阿富汗人民伸出了和解与抚慰之手。他保证国际社会不但提供援助以帮助阿富汗难民过冬，而且一旦塔利班政权被推翻，将努力工作确保下一个政权构建在广泛的民众基础之上。
