尼泊尔国王称将把权力交还人民 (Nepalese King Says He is Returning Power Back to People)

尼泊尔国王贾南德拉说，他决定将权力交还人民，并已要求政党对首相人选提出建议。贾南德拉国王星期五对全国讲话时作出以上宣布。在此之前，上万名尼泊尔民众不顾政府戒严和就地开枪的命令连续16天举行反君主制的抗议游行。尼泊尔警察打死了13名抗议者。

将近15个月前，贾南德拉国王解散了民选政府，取得了绝对政治权力。他说政府没有能够控制毛派反叛力量的活动。毛派反叛分子现在与被剥夺权力的政党合作。星期五早些时候，几万名抗议者挥舞着党旗，高喊反对君主制的口号，在首都加德满都城外的拉兰基区游行。示威者焚烧车胎，在街头摆放木头和铁丝网，阻碍军队部署。 防暴警察、携带自动武器的军队以及装甲车辆守候在路口，防止示威队伍进入城内。

Nepal's King Gyanendra says he has decided to return power to the people and has asked political parties to suggest a new candidate for the prime minister's post. King Gyanendra made the announcement during his address to the nation Friday after 16 straight days of protest rallies by tens of thousands of anti-monarchy protesters who defied a curfew and shoot-to-kill orders. Police killed 13 protesters.

The king fired an elected government and seized absolute power nearly 15 months ago. He said the government had failed to control Maoist rebels who now have joined hands with the ousted political parties. Earlier Friday, tens of thousands of protesters marched, waved party flags and chanted anti-monarchy slogans in the Kalanki district on the outskirts of the capital, Kathmandu. Demonstrators burned tires and threw logs and barbed wire across the streets to prevent troop movements. Riot police, troops with automatic weapons and armored cars stood at intersections to prevent protesters from entering the city.
