(2). Myanmar’s army vetoed constitutional amendments that would have reduced its political power. The ruling National League for Democracy, led by Aung San Suu Kyi, had proposed shrinking the proportion of MPs appointed by the army and making it easier to amend the constitution, among other things.
缅甸军方否决了可能削弱其政治权力的宪法修正案。此前,由昂山素季领导的执政的全国民主联盟提议缩减由军方任命的国会议员的比例,其中一个目的是使修改宪法变得更容易。

(4). Mired in economic crisis, Lebanon did not repay a $1.2bn Eurobond, defaulting on its debts for the first time. Foreign reserves have plummeted and unemployment is rising. The government will try to negotiate a restructuring with its creditors, as it struggles with debt that is about 170% of GDP.
陷入经济危机困境的黎巴嫩没有偿还12亿美元的欧元债券,这是其首次拖欠债务。黎巴嫩外汇储备已经大幅下降,失业率正在上升。政府将尝试与债权人协商重组事宜,因为它正在与占GDP约170%的债务作斗争。
