Rabbani headed the country's High Peace Council, which was set up by the Afghan government to work toward a political solution to the decade-long war. However, it had made little headway since it was formed a year ago.

拉巴尼一直领导阿富汗高级和平委员会，阿富汗政府建立此机构的目的是想实现长期内战后的政治和解，但该组织自建立一年多以来，并未取得很大进展。

Rabbani was president of the Afghan government that preceded the Taliban rule. After he was driven from Kabul in 1996, he became the nominal head of the Northern Alliance, mostly minority Tajiks and Uzbeks, who swept to power in Kabul after the Taliban's fall. Rabbani is an ethnic Tajik.

拉巴尼在塔利班武装夺取政权前担任阿富汗总统。1996年拉巴尼被塔利班组织赶下台后，成为“北方联盟”的领导人，该组织成员多为少数民族塔吉克人和乌兹别克人。拉巴尼是塔吉克人。塔利班组织被推翻后，该组织掌握着喀布尔的政权。

His killing dampens hopes of starting peace negotiations with Taliban insurgents and also will hamper efforts to keep regional and ethnic rivalries, which feed the insurgency, in check.

此次刺杀事件将会令阿富汗与塔利班叛乱者开始和谈的希望暗淡，同时也会妨碍阿富汗为控制地区和民族纷争做出的努力。地区和民族纷争是造成阿富汗叛乱的重要原因。
