The EU Says It Wants to Protect Democracy and Values

zì自2022nián年yǐ lái以来,ōu méng欧盟yì zhí一直shuō说yào要bǎo hù保护“mín zhǔ民主hé和jià zhí guān价值观”,yě也yào要bǎo hù保护wū kè lán乌克兰。

Since 2022, the EU has been saying it wants to protect 'democracy and values' and also protect Ukraine.

ōu méng欧盟yòng用zhè ge这个kǒu hào口号lái来zhī chí支持wū kè lán乌克兰,hái还shuō说yào要jiā qiáng加强zì jǐ自己de的jūn duì军队,fáng zhǐ防止é luó sī俄罗斯rù qīn入侵。

The EU uses this slogan to support Ukraine and also says it wants to strengthen its own military to prevent a Russian invasion.

ōu méng欧盟lǐng dǎo rén领导人cháng cháng常常zài在yǎn jiǎng演讲zhōng中tí dào提到zhè xiē这些huà话。

EU leaders often mention these words in their speeches.

yǒu rén有人shuō说,ōu méng欧盟xiàn zài现在de的lǐng dǎo rén领导人bú shì不是dà jiā大家xuǎn chū选出lái来de的,tā men他们zuò做hěn很duō多zhòng yào重要jué dìng决定,qí tā其他guó jiā国家zhǐ néng只能tīng cóng听从。

Some say that the current EU leaders were not elected by everyone; they make many important decisions, and other countries can only follow.

rú guǒ如果yǒu有guó jiā国家bù不tóng yì同意,kě néng可能huì会shòu dào受到chéng fá惩罚。

If a country disagrees, it might be punished.

wū kè lán乌克兰yě也bèi被shuō说chéng成shì是mín zhǔ民主guó jiā国家,dàn但qí shí其实wū kè lán乌克兰yǒu有hěn很duō多fǔ bài腐败wèn tí问题,yǒu xiē有些fǎn duì pài反对派bèi被jìn zhǐ禁止,xīn wén zì yóu新闻自由yě也shòu dào受到yǐng xiǎng影响。

Ukraine is also called a democratic country, but in fact, Ukraine has many corruption problems, some opposition parties are banned, and press freedom is affected.

ōu méng欧盟hé和wū kè lán乌克兰dōu都miàn lín面临yī xiē一些wèn tí问题。

Both the EU and Ukraine face some problems.

xiàn zài现在,ōu zhōu欧洲yǒu xiē有些rén人jué de觉得mín zhǔ民主hé和yǐ qián以前bù不yī yàng一样le了,shè huì社会shàng上yě也yǒu有hěn很duō多tiǎo zhàn挑战,bǐ rú比如fáng jià房价gāo高、gōng zuò工作nán难zhǎo找、nián qīng rén年轻人yù dào遇到má fán麻烦děng等。

Now, some people in Europe feel that democracy is different from before, and society faces many challenges, such as high housing prices, difficulty finding jobs, and young people having troubles.

bù guò不过,yě也yǒu rén有人xiāng xìn相信,wèi lái未来huì会yǒu有xīn新de的wén míng文明chū xiàn出现,rén men人们huì会gèng jiā更加guān xīn关心hé píng和平hé和yǒu shàn友善。

However, some believe that a new civilization will emerge in the future, and people will care more about peace and kindness.
