Russian warships have entered Cuban waters for the first time since the end
of the Cold War.
冷战後,俄罗斯军舰第一次进入古巴水域.
A Russian destroyer and two support ships sailed into Havana Bay on their way
home from joint exercises with the Venezuelan navy.
一艘驱逐舰及两艘补给船在参加与委内瑞拉海军的联合演习後返航途中来到哈瓦那.
It is the latest sign of improved ties between Moscow and communist-run Cuba,
which were allies during Soviet days.
这是最新的一个迹象显示莫斯科与古巴关系的改善.
Correspondents say it is also a reflection of strained relations between
Moscow and Washington.
同时也反映出莫斯科与华盛顿紧张关系.
Russia has been angered by US plans for a missile defence system in Europe,
and its support for Georgia in the recent conflict with Russia.
对於美国计画在欧洲部署反飞弹系统以及支持乔治亚共和国,俄罗思方面很愤怒!
Correspondents at the scene say the destroyer Admiral Chabanenko released
black plumes of smoke as it sailed into Havana Bay at 1000 local time (1500
GMT), flanked by the two smaller boats.
在两艘船只护航下,Admiral Chabanenko在当地时间上午10点昇烟航入哈瓦那湾.
Welcoming shots were fired from the colonial fortress, San Carlos de la
Cabana, followed by a ceremony with music, presided over by officers of the
Cuban navy.
古巴海军在古堡San Carlos de la Cabana鸣炮奏乐欢迎.
The Russian embassy in Cuba told the AFP news agency that the ships were on a
friendly, working visit designed to "develop" relations and "co-operation"
between the two countries.
俄罗斯驻古巴大使馆说,这次是友善的访问,要促进两国关系及合作.
Joint manoeuvres
The warship recently took part in joint manoeuvres with Venezuela, which
coincided with a tour of Latin America by Russian President Dmitry Medvedev.
这支船舰刚刚参加同委内瑞拉的联合演习,同时俄罗斯总统也到访拉丁美洲.
The Admiral Chabanenko then became the first Russian vessel to navigate the
Panama Canal since World War II.
之後,Admiral Chabanenko是二战以来第一艘通行巴拿马运河的俄国军舰.
Panama said the canal is "open to all the world's ships" and the Russian
vessel's passage had no political significance.
巴拿马说,运河开放给全世界任何的船只,俄国军舰通行没有代表什麽政治上的意义.
But analysts say Moscow is sending a symbolic message to the US about the
consequences of Washington's activity in regions that Russia regards as its
sphere of influence.
但是观察家说,俄国是针对美国在他势力范围内的举动而释出一个象徵性的讯息.
Cuba's communist leadership was closely allied to Moscow during the Cold War,
but relations have weakened since the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991
古巴在冷战时期与莫斯科是紧密的盟友,但是在1991年苏联瓦解後,两国关系就冷淡了.
