Australians held over alleged SL bribes_我的网站
A | 8月23日，乌克兰总统泽连斯基在基辅会见媒体代表时，明确拒绝了提前举行总统选举的呼吁。他警告称，在战事持续期间举行选举“对国家来说将是一场海啸”，将导致乌克兰分裂。 “如果我们想摧毁这个国家，那么我们当然可以在这样的战争时期举行选举。” 这是被解职的前国防部长费多罗夫公开呼吁举行战时选举后，泽连斯基首次作出正面回应。 上周二（8月18日），乌克兰前国防部长费多罗夫发布了一段疑似竞选宣传片的视频，引起了巨大轰动。在视频中，他批判了乌克兰的腐败，称乌克兰正面临“系统性治理危机”，并模糊地呼吁：尽管俄罗斯正在入侵该国，但需要通过选举来“恢复民主进程”。

Australian police arrested the pair last month after a decade-long investigation spanning several countries, BBC reported.
The men, aged 67 and 71, worked for a company which has been accused of misconduct in South Asian countries, it said.
They are yet to respond to the charges and will face court.
The Australian Federal Police (AFP) say the men arranged bribes of more than A$304,000 ($190,000) to government officials between 2009 and 2016.
The bribes were allegedly made in the pursuit of two Sri Lankan projects -- which police did not name -- worth A$14m.
The charges follow an investigation into SMEC International Pty Ltd, an Australian-based engineering firm, which involved authorities from the US, Canada, India and elsewhere, the BBC reported.
More arrests and charges are possible, the AFP said.
"Corruption undermines fair competition and can have disastrous consequences for developing economies, global anti-poverty and development efforts," Detective Supt Helen Schneider said.
Originally known as the Snowy Mountains Engineering Corp, SMEC was formed in 1949 to build an iconic Australian infrastructure project. It has since grown to employ 5,400 staff in many countries.
In 2017, the World Bank temporarily barred SMEC and four subsidiaries in India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka from bidding for any of its contracts, the report said.
The World Bank said it had discovered evidence linking the company to suspected "inappropriate payments" in Sri Lanka and Bangladesh.
At the time, a spokesperson for SMEC said the allegations did not relate to any Australian projects, and that the company would continue to strengthen its corporate integrity compliance programmes.
Protests erupted in Sri Lanka this year over corruption allegations and the country's worst economic crisis in history, it said.
UNI MR。因为组织选举需要处理战争障碍，比如前线军人、海外数百万难民或住在敌占区的乌克兰人如何投票等难题。 泽连斯基认为：“在我们目前的条件下，这是不可能的，因为普京根本不愿意考虑任何停火方案。
C | ” 根据基辅社会学研究所（KIIS）八月的最新民意调查，只有15%的受访者认为战争结束前应该举行选举。 费多罗夫于今年1月出任防长，7月15日在内阁改组中被解职，此举曾在基辅等多座城市引发抗议。泽连斯基称仍对费多罗夫保持积极态度，“但他要么是自己走错了方向，要么是被人推向了错误的方向”。 费多罗夫的团队向媒体证实，他计划近期前往美国，这一行程可能再次引发外界关于他与泽连斯基政治竞争关系的猜测。
