The 2017 Nobel peace prize has been awarded to the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons.
2017年諾貝爾和平獎(Nobel Peace Prize)被授予“國際廢除核武器運動”（ICAN）。
The Nobel committee said ICAN had been awarded the prize “for its work to draw attention to the catastrophic humanitarian consequences of any use of nuclear weapons and for its groundbreaking efforts to achieve a treaty-based prohibition of such weapons”.
諾貝爾獎委員會表示，“國際廢除核武器運動”獲得本屆諾貝爾和平獎，“因為它在吸引公眾關(guān)注使用核武器所帶來的災(zāi)難性的人道主義后果的努力、以及它為實現(xiàn)以條約為基礎(chǔ)禁止此類武器方面的開創(chuàng)性努力”。
The US and most of the other nuclear powers have opposed such a treaty.
美國和其他絕大多數(shù)擁有核武器的國家都反對此類條約。
Nikki Haley, US ambassador to the UN, said in March this year: “There is nothing I want more for my family than a world with no nuclear weapons. But we have to be realistic. Is there anyone who thinks that North Korea would ban nuclear weapons?”
今年3月，美國駐聯(lián)合國大使尼基?黑利(Nikki Haley)曾表示：“除了讓核武器從世界消失以外，我別無所求。但是我們不得不現(xiàn)實些。有人認(rèn)為朝鮮會禁止核武器嗎？”
The Nobel committee said: “We live in a world where the risk for nuclear weapons being used it greater than it has been for a long time”.
諾貝爾獎委員會表示：“我們生活在這樣一個世界：核武器被啟用的風(fēng)險超過以往很長的一段時間。”
The award comes against a backdrop of heightening tensions between the US and North Korea over Pyongyang’s nuclear weapons programme. It also follows two years after the breakthrough deal struck by western powers with Iran on its nuclear programme.
該獎項揭曉，正值美國和朝鮮就平壤方面的核武器計劃的緊張關(guān)系日益加劇之際。此外，現(xiàn)在距離西方國家與伊朗就伊朗核計劃達成突破性協(xié)議也已經(jīng)過去了兩年。
Launched in 2007, ICAN is a described as a global civil society coalition. It comprises 468 partner organisations in 101 countries.

The ICAN and its partners were praised in 2012 by the-then Secretary-General of the UN, Ban Ki-Moon for “working with such commitment and creativity in pursuit of our shared goal of a nuclear-weapon-free world”.
