VOA慢速英语 美国控告被指控索马里劫持者

  Somalia's prime minister is calling for a halt to ransom payments to pirates and kidnappers. Omar Abdirashid Ali Sharmarke says the large amounts being paid are part of the reason for the rise in hijackings. Somalia's weak central government must deal with a deadly rebellion inside the country and is unable to police its waters. Mister Sharmarke says piracy can only be prevented when Somalia has a government that can enforce its own laws.

  On Thursday in Brussels, international donors promised more than two hundred fifty million dollars to improve security in Somalia.

  And that's IN THE NEWS in VOA Special English, written by Brianna Blake. I'm Steve Ember.
