俄罗斯政客:我在家中遇见外星人

6

24EN Editor's Note:A Russian MP has asked an eccentricregional leader to explain his behaviour after claiming on state television that he was visited at home by aliens in a UFO, media reported Thursday.

据媒体本周四报道,俄罗斯一名地区领导人日前在接受当地一个电视台的采访时语出惊人,宣称自己曾在家中遇见搭乘不明飞行物的外星人。一名杜马议员要求他对他的这一行为做出解释。

Kirsan Ilyumzhinov, head of the Buddhist Kalmykia region of southern Russia and president of the World Chess Federation (FIDE), announced without apparent irony on a high-profile chat show he had met the aliens in 1997.

俄罗斯南部信奉佛教的卡尔梅克共和国领袖、国际象棋协会主席基尔桑·伊柳姆日诺夫日前在一档高端人物谈话节目中严肃宣称,他曾在1997年见过外星人。

In an equally bizarre twist, Andrei Lebedev, an MP for the nationalist Liberal Democratic Party, has now written to President Dmitry Medvedev raising fears that secret information could have been disclosed in the close encounter.

同样不可思议的是,俄罗斯民族主义政党自由民主党成员、国家杜马议员安德烈 莱比德夫竟致信总统德米特里 梅德韦杰夫,称外星人可能在与伊柳姆日诺夫“亲密接触”时窃取了俄罗斯国家机密。更多信息请访问:http://www.engbus.cn/

"I ask you to say if the head of Kalmykia has made an official report to the Russian presidency about his contacts with representatives of an alien civilisation," he said, quoted by tabloid Komsomolskaya Pravda and other media.

俄罗斯小报和其它媒体援引莱比德夫的话说:“我想知道这位卡尔梅克共和国领导人是否已向俄罗斯总统正式汇报了与外星人接触一事。”

"Is there an established procedure of informing about such contacts by high ranking people who have access to secret information like Ilyumzhinov?

“像伊柳姆日诺夫这样有机会接触到国家机密的高级官员,是否有一个既定的程序来汇报此类事件?”

"And did he in the course of his seemingly innocent conversation disclose secret information?"

“在他与外星人貌似很普通的交谈中是否泄露了国家机密?”

Ilyumzhinov had said in his comments, broadcast in late April, that the aliens appeared in a transparent tube on the balcony of his apartment in Moscow.

伊柳姆日诺夫在上月末的一档电视节目中称,他曾看到外星人搭乘一艘透明的太空船降落在他位于莫斯科公寓的阳台上。

"I was reading my book, watching television and had almost fallen asleep. Then I felt that someone was calling.

“当时我正一边看书一边看电视,几乎快要睡着,突然觉得有人在叫我。”

"I would not have believed it, if I had not had three witnesses -- my driver, my minister and my aide," he said.

他说:“要不是有司机、政府部长和助理三个目击证人,我自己都不敢相信。”

This is not the first time the chess-mad leader has spoken of extraterrestrialencounters. He had earlier claimed to have been shown round a UFO in 2001.

这位国际象棋界领导人已经不是第一次宣称自己遇见外星人。他曾称自己在2001年参观过一个不明飞行物。

Vocabulary:

eccentric:古怪的

extraterrestrial:outside, or originating outside, the limits of the earth(地球外的,宇宙的)
