美国不满苏丹限制市民自由
At least fifteen Darfuri individuals were detained and nine are still in detention 1 without charge in Nierteti in Central Darfur. The United States is gravely concerned about the government of Sudan's incarceration 2 of these people and immediately expressed its concern about the reported detentions 3 to senior Sudanese officials. The United States calls on the government of Sudan to immediately release all those detained.
苏丹达尔富尔中部有至少15人被捕，9人虽未受到起诉，但仍处于被拘留状态。美国对苏丹的这种监禁行为极为担心，并迅速向苏丹高级官员表达了忧虑。美国呼吁苏丹政府迅速释放被捕人员。
The detentions followed a visit by U.S. Special Envoy 4 to Sudan and South Sudan Donald Booth to Sudan's North and Central Darfur states, as well as internally displaced persons camps at Sortoni and Nierteti in the Jebel Marra region of Darfur in late July. Many others who were not detained were nonetheless questioned by security officials about the nature of their contact with the Special Envoy.
这些拘留事件是在7月美国特使出访苏丹和南苏丹，以及美国外交官唐纳德出访苏丹北部、达尔富尔中部各州及达尔富尔的流离失所者营地后发生的。还有很多苏丹市民，虽然并未受到拘留，但仍就是否与特使有非比寻常的联系而受到安保力量的审讯。
These actions are particularly unfortunate as they undercut the government of Sudan's initially 5 granting permission for the Special Envoy's fact-finding visit and allowing him to travel to areas and speak with individuals of his choosing. Such firsthand knowledge is important to shaping future U.S. engagement with the government of Sudan and opposition 6 groups and leaders regarding Darfur.
苏丹的这种行为影响尤其恶劣，会削弱苏丹政府起初赋予美国特使调查实情的权利以及其根据自身医院与苏丹人民对话的权利。而这种第一手的消息对于美国与苏丹政府、反对组织、达尔富尔领导人的未来交往都十分重要。
As Sudan seeks to pursue an inclusive national political dialogue, the Sudanese people need to be free to voice their opinions. The United States urges the government of Sudan to respect its citizens' rights to freedoms of expression, peaceful assembly and association, including by the press. These are vital elements for an environment conducive 7 to a national dialogue.
随着苏丹寻求全国上下包容性政治对话的展开，苏丹人民需要自由表达心声。美国敦促苏丹政府尊重苏丹公民的言论自由、集会自由、出版自由。这些对于构建全国对话的环境有重要意义。
