TOKYO (Reuters) - Major donors pledged onSunday to give Afghanistan $16 billion in development aid through 2015 as theytry to prevent it from sliding back into chaos when foreign troops leave, butdemanded reforms to fight widespread corruption.
东京（路透社）- 主要援助国周日许诺，为防止阿富汗在外国军队撤出后重新陷入混乱，将在2015年前向阿富汗提供160亿美元，但是前提是，阿富汗要通过改革来应对蔓延的腐败现象。
Donor fatigue and war weariness have takentheir toll on how long the global community is willing to support Afghanistanand there are concerns about security following the withdrawal of most NATOtroops in 2014 if financial backing is not secured.
援助国疲于战争和其厌战情绪使得他们不得不关注国际社会对阿富汗的援助能有多长。同时，也有对于随着北约在2014年底前撤出大部分部队后对阿富汗经济援助的安全的担心。
"Afghanistan's security cannot only bemeasured by the absence of war," U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clintontold an international donors' conference in Tokyo.
"It has to be measured by whetherpeople have jobs and economic opportunity, whether they believe theirgovernment is serving their needs, whether political reconciliation proceedsand succeeds."
“战争的结束并不意味着阿富汗安全了”，美国国务卿希拉里在东京举行的国际援助会议上说，“安全与否应由人民是否有工作，经济是否有机遇，人民是否信任政府为民服务，政治和解是否有进展和成功”
The roughly $4 billion in annual aidpledged at the meeting, attended by 80 countries and internationalorganizations, fell short of the $6 billion a year the Afghan central bank hassaid will be needed to foster economic growth over the next decade.
会议有80个国家和国际组织出席，许诺将每年提供40亿美元援助。阿富汗中央银行行长称，阿富汗资金每年短缺60亿，这些资金将对于未来十年的经济起促进作用。
Clinton and other donors stressed theimportance of Afghanistan - one of the most corrupt nations in the world -taking aggressive action to fight graft and promote reforms.
希拉里跟其他援助国和组织强调阿富汗的重要性——世界上腐败最严重的国家——正在积极地反对腐败与推行改革。
"We have agreed that we need adifferent kind of long-term economic partnership, one built on Afghan progressin meeting its goals, in fighting corruption, in carrying out reform, andproviding good governance," Clinton said.
“我们双方达成共识——我们需要一种不同的长期经济伙伴关系，一个建立于阿富汗打击腐败，推动改革，更好的政府管理的基础上”希拉里说。
According to "mutualaccountability" provisions in the final conference documents, as much as20 percent of the aid could ultimately depend on Afghanistan meeting benchmarkson fighting corruption and other good governance measures.
根据最终会议文件中的“双方责任”条款，有至少20％的援助是要求阿富汗的反腐成效和管理手段达到一定的基准才予以提供。
However, a Japanese official said that itwas up to each donor whether to make its aid contingent on such reforms andthat the benchmarks could vary from country to country.
但是，一个日本官员称，捐助与否是要根据每个援助国对于所谓“改革（指阿富汗的改革）”的情况而定的，而每个援助国对于“改革”的基准都可能各不相同。
World Bank Managing Director Sri MulyaniIndrawati said the pressure was on the Afghan government to deliver reforms andensure fair elections in 2014 in order to secure aid beyond the amount pledgedin Tokyo.
世界银行总经理 Sri Mulyani Indrawati 说，压力就在于阿富汗政府是否推行改革并在2014年保证公平选举的进行，以保证在东京许诺的援助数额能顺利获得。
"This is a fragile conflictstate," Indrawati told Reuters in an interview. "Three years is avery short time for a country to be able to build stable and competentinstitutions."
“这是个破碎而动乱的国家”，Indrawati 在路透社的访问上说。“三年对一个国家来说是个很短的时间，很难建立稳定和高效的机制。”
NEED TO DO MORE
需要做的更多
International donors provided $35 billionin aid to Afghanistan between 2001 and 2010, but the return on that investmenthas been mixed and the country remains one of the five poorest in the world.
国际援助在2001年到2010年间向阿富汗提供了350亿美元的援助，但是这项投资收效甚微，这个国家仍然是世界上5个最穷的国家之一。
President Hamid Karzai admits hisgovernment needs to do more to tackle corruption, but his critics say he is notdoing enough, and some directly blame authorities for vast amounts of aid notreaching the right people.
阿富汗总统Hamid Karzai（卡尔扎伊）承认政府需要在处理腐败问题上需要做的更多，但是批评他的人说他做的并不够。有人直接指出，这些大量的援助资金根本没有发放到应得的人的手上。
While strides have been made in schoolingchildren and improving access to health care, three-quarters of the 30 millionAfghans are illiterate and the average person earns only about $530 a year,according to the World Bank.
根据世界银行的报告，阿富汗总人口3000万人中4分之3为文盲，人均年收入仅有530美元，虽然在提高儿童入学和接受医疗的条件方面上有了一定的进展。
The government has identified priorityareas for economic development, including investment in agriculture and mining,which Western officials see as a possible engine for growth. Afghanistan isbelieved to have up to a trillion dollars' worth of untapped mineral wealth.
政府已经意识到发展经济是第一要务，包括西方官员认为拉动阿富汗经济增长的引擎——投资农业和矿业。据信，阿富汗拥有尚未开发的矿产资源可值上万亿美元。
Afghan Finance Minister Omar Zakhilwal saidthe Tokyo conference had shown aid donors were committed to the long haul."Today's event sends the strongest message to Afghan people that theinternational community will be with us in 2014, 2015, 2017, 2020 andbeyond," Zakhilwal told a news conference.
阿富汗财政部长 Omar Zakhiwal 在一新闻发布会上表示，东京会议体现了援助国的长远眼光。“今天的会议发出了个强烈的信息，就是国际社会将会与我们一道，无论是2014，,2015,2017,2020还是以后。”
U.S. officials gave no figure for their aidpledge but said the administration would ask Congress to keep assistancethrough 2017 "at or near" what it has given over the past decade.
美国官员没有给出具体援助金额，但说政府会向国会提出提供协助至2017年。金额将等于或者约等于过去十年提供的金额。
Annual U.S. aid to Afghanistan has rangedfrom about $1 billion a decade ago to a peak of about $4 billion in 2010. Itstands at about $2.3 billion this year.
美国每年对阿富汗的援助在10年前是10亿美元左右，而在2010年的金额是40亿美元左右，也就意味着今年是约23亿美元。
Japan pledged $3 billion in aid forAfghanistan through 2016. Foreign Minister Koichiro Gemba said $2.2 billion of thatamount would be grants for development projects in areas like investment inroads and infrastructure.
日本承诺在2016年前提供30亿美元。外相 Koichiro Gemba称，其中22亿美元将应用于道路和基础设施等项目。
The EU has said it will continue withpledges of 1.2 billion euros a year, but warned that if progress is not madewith rule of law and women's rights, this could be difficult to continue.
欧盟表示将每年提供12亿欧元，但是同时警告，如果这笔资金的使用应符合法律和尊重女性权利，否则援助将很难继续。
The pledges made in Tokyo are on top of the$4.1 billion by NATO and its partners for supporting the Afghan securityforces.
这些在东京的援助承诺里的最高达到41亿美元，由北约和其伙伴提供，用于支持阿富汗的安全部队。
