Eurozone treasury 1 officials have begun assessing the latest Greek proposals for a way out of the debt crisis. The package that Athens submitted on Thursday to its international creditors 2 includes the kind of austerity measures that Greek voters rejected in a referendum last Sunday. Chris Morrisreports from Brussels.

欧元区财政官员开始评估希腊最近提交的解决本国债务危机的新方案。周四希腊向其债权国提交的方案包括紧缩性财政政策，这项政策在上周日公投中被国民否决。下面是克里斯·莫瑞斯布鲁塞尔报道：

“The proposals include tax rises, pension reforms, spending cuts and promises of privatisation. Measures rejected in last Sunday's referendum will now be conceded. But this is no capitulation by the Prime Minister, Alexis Tsipras. In return, he is asking for far more than was offered last month. Greece wants a new three-year bailout from the Eurozone. It wants more support to promote economic growth, and it wants its huge debt burden to be restructured. In that, it now has support from the IMF, the U.S. Treasury and the President of the European Council, Donald Tusk 3.”

这项方案包括的措施有提高税收，退休金改革，减少财政支出和保证私有化。上周公投中被否决的措施暂缓实施，但是这绝不是希腊首相齐普拉斯的无条件妥协。作为交换条件，他要求财政救助资金多于上个月。希腊想要从欧元区再次得到三年的财政救助，希望得到更多的支持来发展经济，希望本国巨大的债务负担得到重组。这样的话，希腊目前有来自国际货币基金组织的帮助。美国财政部和欧盟委员会主席唐纳德的帮助

International negotiators striving for a deal on Iran's nuclear programme have missed another deadline, but they say they are committed to working on. Lyse Doucet is in Vienna, where the talks are being held.

国际协商国就伊朗核问题讨论解决方案的时间再一次延期，但是他们称他们将继续致力于会谈。下面是利兹在维也纳现场发回的报道：

“Western diplomats 4 made it clear the onus 5 is on Iran to make some tough political decisions. But a senior Iranian official complained that other countries were changing their positions at this late stage, and that each of them had different redlines. The six world powers in this process are known to be divided on some key issues, but that's not the only hurdle 6. It's clear more time is needed to resolve some significant differences, relating to restrictions 7 on Iran's nuclear programme and the lifting of sanctions.”

西方外交官很明确的表示伊朗问题引起了政治难题，但是一位伊朗高官却回应到，其它国家在最后阶段改变立场，并且他们都存在歧视。这次会谈中世界六大国在某些问题上意见不统一，这还不是仅有的障碍。很明确，我们需要更多的时间来解决一些重大分歧，其中有限制伊朗核工程和解除限制。，

The Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, John Boehner, has called for the sacking of top officials of the Office of Personnel Management, following new revelations about a massive breach 8 of its computer systems. It's now emerged that hackers 9 stole information of more than twenty million people. Here's Tom Batement.

美国议会发言人约翰·博纳要求解雇人力管理办公室的高官。在此之前，新的电脑系统崩溃再次发生。目前所知黑客盗走了两千万人口的资料。下面是汤姆带来的报道：

“It's now thought the cyber attack began as early as last May with hackers accessing the U.S. government's Human Resources Service and stealing, what the Director of the FBI has called, a treasure trove 10 of security vetting 11 information. The breach targeted anyone who'd applied 12 for a job at a federal agency in the last fifteen years, taking social security numbers, financial histories, even, in some cases, people's finger prints. China has denied involvement in the breach, but that is likely to do little to comfort Homeland Security officials deeply suspicious of the country's activities in cyber space.”

据悉，电脑黑客在去年五月就侵入美国人力资源办公室的电脑并且盗取信息。就像FBI领导所说，盗走无形的信息宝藏。这场黑客攻击目标是在联邦局工作15年以上的人，盗取他们的社会安保编码。财务情况等，甚至盗取人们的指纹。**
