Huge Protests Have Convulsed Hong Kong for 9 Weeks.

香港大规模抗议活动已持续九周

And on Monday, a large crowd of anti-government demonstrators shut down Hong Kong’s airport. That led to the cancellation of more than 130 flights. The unrest this summer revolves around an unpopular bill, now suspended, that would have allowed Hong Kong crime suspects to be tried in mainland China. 

12日,一大批示威者在香港机场集会导致机场陷入瘫痪,130多个航班被取消。今年夏天出现的这场骚乱的起因是抗议者反对对一项法律的修改,香港政府目前已经暂停了这项工作。

The turmoil is adding uncertainty to Hong Kong’s economy: Chinese authorities have warned that the unrest may tip the economy into recession and damage business confidence in the international finance and trading hub.

The Argentine Peso Fell 32% Against the Dollar on Monday

8月12日阿根廷比索兑美元暴跌32%

The decline was a reaction to what happened on Sunday, when Argentina’s pro-business president, Mauricio Macri, soundly lost a primary election. The results indicate that Macri may lose re-election in October.

8月11日,阿根廷亲商业总裁毛里西奥·马克里(Mauricio Macri)在初选中落选,这表明他可能会在10月份失去连任机会。受此影响,阿根廷比索汇率大幅下跌。

So far his most prominent opponent is Alberto Fernandez. Fernandez is a member of the powerful Peronist movement, an anti-capitalist, anti-communist ideology. His vice presidential running mate is former President Cristina Kirchner, a firebrand nationalist. 

到目前为止,马克里最强劲的对手是阿尔贝托·费尔南德斯(Alberto Fernandez)。费尔南德斯是强大的庇隆主义(Peronist)运动的成员,庇隆主义是一种反资本主义、反共产主义的意识形态。费尔南德斯的副总统竞选伙伴是前总统克里斯蒂娜·基什内尔(Cristina Kirchner),后者是一名民粹主义者。

The vote comes weeks after Argentina reached a trade deal with the European Union that would open up Argentina’s economy, one of the most closed in the world. Fernandez, however, has criticized the pact as a deathblow to Argentina’s protected industry.

在初选投票的几周前,阿根廷和欧盟(European Union)达成了一项贸易协议,阿根廷将开放本国经济,该国是世界上最封闭的经济体之一。然而费尔南德斯批评这项协议是对阿根廷受保护产业的致命打击。
