💬 双语例句
And yet the absence of liberal candidates does not explain why Putin won 70% of the vote in Moscow and 75% in St. Petersburg (where the turnout was 15% less than the national average). Those results suggest that the electorate has become more pliant.
但缺乏自由派候选人无法解释为何普京在莫斯科赢得70%的选票,在圣彼得堡赢得75%的选票(投票率比全国平均水平低15 % ) 。 这些结果表明,选民变得更加顺从了。 许多人现在觉得支持普京的“强国”论要比冒着叛国指控和丢掉饭碗的危险进行抗争更容易。
Earlier this month, Putin was re-inaugurated – or, rather, crowned – in spectacular fashion, with Medvedev once again assuming the role of pliant prime minister. Despite his years in office, Medvedev is still known more for his fancy ties and expensive watches than for his executive actions.
