Olympic Truce and the Moral Crisis of the International Order
本站:原文:
ào lín pǐ kè xiū zhàn奥林匹克休战deyì si意思shìzàiào yùn huì奥运会qī jiān期间shì jiè世界gè guó各国yīng gāi应该tíng zhǐ停止zhàn zhēng战争ràngdà jiā大家kě yǐ可以píng děng平等xiāng yù相遇bǐ sài比赛

The Olympic Truce means that during the Olympic Games, countries around the world should stop wars so that everyone can meet and compete equally.

zhèshìào yùn huì奥运会hěnzhòng yào重要dejīng shén精神

This is a very important spirit of the Olympic Games.

kě shì可是xiàn zài现在hěnduōguó jiā国家zàiào yùn huì奥运会qī jiān期间hái shì还是jì xù继续dǎ zhàng打仗méi yǒu没有zhēn zhèng真正zūn shǒu遵守xiū zhàn休战deyuán zé原则

However, nowadays, many countries continue to fight during the Olympic Games and do not truly follow the principle of truce.

bǐ rú比如měi guó美国yǐ sè liè以色列shā tè ā lā bó沙特阿拉伯tǔ ěr qí土耳其āi sāi é bǐ yà埃塞俄比亚é luó sī俄罗斯děngguó jiā国家zàiào yùn huì奥运会shídōufā shēng发生guòzhàn zhēng战争dàntā men他们méi yǒu没有shòu dào受到zhēn zhèng真正dechéng fá惩罚

For example, countries like the United States, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Ethiopia, and Russia have had wars during the Olympics, but they have not been truly punished.

guó jì ào wěi huì国际奥委会lián hé guó联合国suī rán虽然shuōyàoxiū zhàn休战dànméi yǒu没有cǎi qǔ采取yǒu xiào有效dexíng dòng行动

Although the International Olympic Committee and the United Nations call for a truce, they have not taken effective actions.

zhè yàng这样ào yùn huì奥运会jiùbiàn chéng变成leyí gè一个biǎo miàn shàng表面上dehé píng和平huó dòng活动shí jì shàng实际上hěnduōdì fāng地方háizàifā shēng发生zhàn zhēng战争tòng kǔ痛苦

Thus, the Olympic Games have become a superficial peace event, while in reality many places still experience war and suffering.

rú guǒ如果zhǐshuōhé píng和平quèzǔ zhǐ阻止zhàn zhēng战争zhèbú shì不是zhōng lì中立ér shì而是mò xǔ默许

If we only talk about peace but do not stop wars, this is not neutrality but tacit approval.

zhǐ yǒu只有zhēn zhèng真正zuò dào做到dào dé道德yí zhì一致ào yùn huì奥运会cáiyǒuyì yì意义

Only by truly achieving moral consistency does the Olympic Games have meaning.

fǒu zé否则ào yùn huì奥运会jiùzhǐ shì只是yí gè一个biǎo yǎn表演rén men人们detòng kǔ痛苦méi yǒu没有guān xì关系

Otherwise, the Olympic Games are just a performance unrelated to people's suffering.
