（单词翻译）

This is VOA news. Via remote, I'm Marissa Melton. The Kremlin in Russia on Sunday accused the United States of interfering¹ in Russia's domestic affairs and downplayed the scale of the weekend's protests, when tens of thousands rallied in support of jailed opposition² politician Alexei Navalny. More than 3,500 demonstrators were detained in protests across the country on Saturday, with several injured in clashes with police in Moscow following Navalny's call to rally against President Vladimir Putin and his 20-year rule. The West has widely condemned³ the "harsh tactics" used against the demonstrators, with French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian saying Sunday the mass arrest of protesters was "an intolerable affront⁴" and a "slide towards authoritarianism⁵."

欢迎收听美国之音新闻。我是玛丽莎·梅尔顿，为您远程报道。俄罗斯克里姆林宫周日指责美国干涉俄罗斯内政，并淡化周末抗议活动的规模，当时有数万人集会支持被监禁的反对派政治家阿列克谢·纳瓦尔尼。周六，在俄罗斯各地的抗议活动中，超过3500名示威者被拘留，数名示威者在与莫斯科警方发生冲突时受伤，此前，纳瓦尔尼曾呼吁集会反对总统普京及其长达20年的统治。西方广泛谴责俄罗斯针对示威者采取的“严厉手段”，法国外长让-伊夫·勒德里安周日表示，大规模逮捕抗议者是“无法容忍的侮辱”，是“向威权主义低头”

Polish President Andrzej Duda told the Financial Times newspaper that he calls for the European Union to step up sanctions against Russia over Navalny's treatment. He said sanctions are the only non-violent way to force Russia to observe international law. The Polish later also said EU foreign affairs chief Josep Borrell should re-consider plans to visit Russia next month unless Navalny is released. EU foreign ministers are due to consider their response to Navalny's detention⁶ on Monday. Putin spokesman on Sunday accused the United States embassy of interfering in Russia's domestic affairs after the mission distributed a demonstration⁷ alert to U.S. citizens in Russia recommending they avoid protests. U.S. State Department spokesman Ned Price said on Sunday that the United States strongly condemns⁸ arrest and the use of harsh tactics against protesters and journalists in cities throughout Russia. Price added the U.S. is urging Russia to fully⁹ cooperate with the international (communis) community's investigation¹⁰ of the poisoning of Aleksey Navalny. This is VOA news.

波兰总统杜达对英国《金融时报》表示，他呼吁欧盟就纳瓦尔尼的待遇问题加强对俄罗斯的制裁。他说，制裁是迫使俄罗斯遵守国际法的唯一非暴力方式。波兰随后还表示，除非纳瓦尔尼获释，否则欧盟外交事务负责人博雷尔会重新考虑下月访问俄罗斯的计划。欧盟外交事务负责人预计会在周一考虑欧盟如何回应纳瓦尔尼拘留事件。普京发言人周日指责美国大使馆干涉俄罗斯内政，此前美国大使馆曾向在俄美国公民发出示威警报，建议他们避免参与抗议活动。美国国务院发言人普莱斯星期天称，美国强烈谴责在俄罗斯各城市逮捕抗议者和记者病对他们使用严厉手段的行径。普莱斯还说，美国敦促俄罗斯全力配合国际社会对纳瓦尔尼中毒事件的调查。欢迎收听美国之音新闻。
