尼泊尔花了四年时间才使政客们同意实施一项新宪法，但周日最后期间截止时尚未达成一致，从而使该国陷入危机。现任议会期限已到，所以尼泊尔进入政治真空期。总理向全国发表讲话，宣布将在6个月内举行新的选举。许多尼泊尔人对这种冗长的僵局早已厌倦，这个消息对他们来说令人沮丧。目前的中心问题是，是否应按照种族区域来划分这个实施新联邦制的国家，政客们对此仍然意见不一。

Tens of thousands of Georgians have attended a rally in Tbilisi to launch a new opposition alliance led by a billionaire businessman Bidzina Ivanishvili. It comes ahead of parliamentary elections in October. From Tbilisi, Damien McGuinness.

成千上万格鲁吉亚人在第比利斯参加集会，发起由亿万富商Bidzina Ivanishvili领导的新反对联盟。十月份该国将举行议会选举。达米安·麦吉尼斯在第比利斯报道。

This is the first time in years that so many government critics have taken to the streets in Georgia. Previous rallies have been undermined by a bickering and divided opposition, but Mr Ivanishvili has used his wealth to unite the opposition, and to bankroll a starting to look like a slick election campaign. His supporters accuse President Saakashvili of authoritarianism, and say he's not doing enough to tackle poverty and unemployment.

这是多年来有这么多政府批评者走上格鲁吉亚街头。之前的集会由于反对派之前发生争吵和分裂而失败，但麦吉尼斯利用财富使反对派加强团结，使这次抗议看起来像是次体面的竞选活动。他的支持者指责总统什维利独裁，称他在对付贫困和失业问题上做得不够。
