Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said Friday it is unlikely that the breakaway regions of Abkhazia and South Ossetia will rejoin Georgia after a week of violent clashes. He offered the prediction just before Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili announced that he had signed a truce 1 agreement with Russia.
俄罗斯总统梅德韦杰夫星期五说，在经过一个星期的暴力冲突后，格鲁吉亚争取独立的阿布哈兹和南奥塞梯不太可能重新回到格鲁吉亚。在梅德韦杰夫发出上述预测之后不久，格鲁吉亚总统萨卡什维利宣布与俄罗斯签署停火协议。
Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and German Chancellor 2 Angela Merkel met in the Black Sea coast city Sochi not far from Georgia and its breakaway provinces to discuss the unfolding events of the last week.
梅德韦杰夫和德国总理默克尔在距离格鲁吉亚和两个争取独立地区都不远的黑海海滨城市索契会晤，讨论上个星期发生的暴力冲突。
Mr. Medvedev said Georgia was not likely to bring Abkhazia and South Ossetia back into the fold. He said that after what happened the past seven days, it is unlikely Ossetians and Abkhazians will ever be able to live together with Georgia in one state.
梅德韦杰夫说，格鲁吉亚不太可能收回阿布哈兹和南奥塞梯。梅德韦杰夫说，经过过去7天发生的一切之后，奥塞梯人和阿布哈兹人不太可能再与格鲁吉亚同处一个国家之中。
All week, Russian troops have been driving Georgian forces out of the regions, and Mr. Medvedev said Russia will leave it up to the separatists to decide their future status.
一个星期来，俄罗斯部队一直在把格鲁吉亚军队赶出这两个地区。梅德韦杰夫说，俄罗斯会让希望独立的奥塞梯人和阿布哈兹人决定自己的未来。
German Chancellor Angela Merkel echoed the words of U.S. President George Bush. She said Russia's response to Georgia's attack on South Ossetia was "disproportionate," and said that Russian troops staying in the area is "not sensible."
德国总理默克尔表示了与美国总统布什类似的立场。她说，俄罗斯对格鲁吉亚出兵南奥塞梯做出的反应“过度”。她还说，俄罗斯军队“没有道理”留驻在这个地区。
U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice met for five hours with Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili in Tblisi Friday to bring what a U.S. Department of State official called "clarifying explanations" regarding the French-brokered truce. The Georgian president said he signed a cease-fire agreement with Russia.
美国国务卿赖斯与格鲁吉亚总统萨卡什维利星期五在第比利斯举行了5个小时会谈。美国国务院官员称这次会谈对法国斡旋的停火协议作出澄清。格鲁吉亚总统说，他已经签署与俄罗斯的停火协议。
Secretary Rice emphasized that all Russian troops must return to the positions they held before the conflict began.
赖斯强调说，所有俄罗斯部队必须回到冲突发生前所在的位置。
An emotional Saakashvili said he will "never, ever surrender" in the showdown with much-larger Russia.
情绪激动的萨卡什维利说，在与超级强敌俄罗斯的对峙中，他“永远永远不会投降”。
The recent violence was the worst to break out since South Ossetia declared independence from Georgia in 1992.
Separatists in Abkhazia took control of most of the province from Georgia in 1993.
