Dominique Strauss-Kahn has been granted bail after being indicted by a grand jury on seven charges, including two counts of sexual assault. He will be kept under 24-hour armed guard at a New York residence while he awaits trial. He was expected to be released within 24 hours after a $1m bond is posted and processed.
多米尼克•斯特劳斯-卡恩(Dominique Strauss-Kahn)已获准保释。此前，美国一个大陪审团向他提出了7项指控，其中包括两项性侵犯指控。他将在纽约一处24小时都有武装守卫看守的住所等候审讯。预计他将在100万美元保释金得到交付与处理后的24小时内被释放。

European policymakers scrambled yesterday to stake the continent’s claim to provide the next leader of the International Monetary Fund, following the resignation of Dominique Strauss-Kahn as managing director late on Wednesday.
在卡恩周三辞去国际货币基金组织(IMF)总裁后，欧洲政策制定者昨日纷纷公开宣称，欧洲有权提供下任IMF领导人人选。

The fund’s executive board, on which European countries hold just over 30 per cent of the votes, will probably appoint the next managing director within the next month or two, with candidates nominated by IMF member countries. The US holds another 17 per cent. Officials from Europe, which has provided every managing director since the IMF started to operate in 1946, said on Thursday that the difficulties in western European economies argued for the tradition to be continued.
IMF执行董事会可能将在未来一两个月内任命下一任总裁，候选人由各成员国提名。欧洲国家在IMF执行董事会中拥有略多于30%的投票权；美国拥有17%。IMF自1946年投入运作以来，每一位总裁都来自欧洲。欧洲官员周四表示，西欧经济体的困难形势表明，这一传统应当保持下去。

Christine Lagarde, the French finance minister, is the name most widely touted in European circles. On Thursday Ms Lagarde said only that the job should go to a European. Her candidacy could be overshadowed by a judicial investigation into her appointment of an arbitration panel to settle a long-running dispute between Bernard Tapie, a well-known French business tycoon, and the French government.
法国财长克里斯蒂娜•拉加德(Christine Lagarde)是欧洲圈内呼声最高的人选。拉加德周四只说了该职位应由欧洲人担任。她的候选人资格可能会因一项司法调查蒙上阴影，调查内容是她指派了一个仲裁小组，解决法国知名商业大亨伯纳德•塔皮埃(Bernard Tapie)与法国政府的一项长期纠纷。

The US is likely to play a key role in determining the appointment. Tim Geithner, US Treasury secretary, on Thursday released a short statement expressing confidence in John Lipsky, the IMF’s second-in-command who has automatically become acting managing director, and calling for “an open process that leads to a prompt succession” to appoint a new head. Emerging market governments including China and Brazil said they wanted a fair and open process and some said they would prefer a candidate from a developing country, but most stopped short of supporting a particular candidate.
美国可能会在最终任命的决定中扮演关键角色。美国财长蒂姆•盖特纳(Tim Geithner)周四发布了一则简短声明，表达了对已经自动成为代理总裁的IMF第二把手约翰•利普斯基(John Lipsky)的信心，并呼吁IMF在任命新总裁的过程中启动“推动权力迅速交接的公开程序”。中国和巴西等新兴市场政府表示，他们想要一个公平公开的程序，还有一些国家政府表示，他们希望候选人来自发展中国家，但大多数国家都没有对某位特定候选人表示支持。

Finance officials say the most likely non-European nominee is Kemal Dervis, a former Turkish economy minister.
财政官员们表示，最可能的非欧洲提名候选人是土耳其前经济事务部长凯末尔•德尔维什(Kemal Dervis)。
