An emotional day of events commemorating the success of the D-Day landings in northern France in 1944 has ended with a banquet for 19 visiting heads of state at the Elysee Palace in Paris. Queen Elizabeth said the deeds of the allied forces would be remembered for hundreds of years.

為紀念1944年在法國北部的諾曼底登陸成功，在巴黎愛麗舍宮舉行晚宴招待19位來訪的國家元首。伊麗莎白（Elizabeth）女王稱盟軍的事跡將被銘記數百年。

The true measure of all our actions is how long the good in them lasts. Each year has compounded in the Europe for the benefits of our victory in the second world war since it enabled our subsequent successes and our achievements. Seeing in that light, those heroic deeds will stand out as much in 700 years as they do after 70. In an age of instant news and instantaneous judgment, it reminds us we should weigh our actions not by immediate acclaim but by the benefit for future generations.

衡量我們所有行動的真實標準是其中的善行能持續多久。自從諾曼底登陸讓我們取得接連成功及成就，每年在歐洲我們都能感受到勝利的益處。從這個角度看，這些英勇事跡將像70年后一樣流傳700年。在一個充斥著即時新聞和瞬時判斷的時代，它提醒我們在衡量我們的行為時，不是憑眼前的益處，而是注重對未來后代人的利益。

Earlier, at a ceremony in Normandy, President Francois Hollande called for the beaches where the landings took place to be preserved as UNESCO world heritage site. Mr. Hollande paid tribute to the bravery and selflessness of those who fought to liberate France from Nazi occupation.

早些時候，在諾曼底舉行的一場儀式上，總統弗朗索瓦·奧朗德[Francois Hollande]提出將登陸發生地列入聯合國教科文世界遺產地。奧朗德[Hollande]先生向那些為法國從納粹占領下解放出來而戰的英勇無私的戰士們致敬。

These young men in the middle of this hell of fire and steel did not hesitate for a second. They move forward, move forward on French soil defying bullets and shells. They move forward risking their lives, to destroy a diabolical regime. They move forward to defend a noble course. They move forward, kept moving forward to free us to free us at last.

這些年輕的戰士們在戰火和鐵蹄下沒有半點猶豫，他們勇往直前，不顧子彈和炮火，向法國土壤前進。他們冒著生命危險前進，摧毀邪惡的政權。他們為了高貴的事業向前進，一直前進，最終將我們解放出來。

On the eve of his inauguration, the newly elected Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko has met President Putin during brief and formal talks on the sidelines of the D-Day commemorations. The Russian leader called for an immediate ceasefire in Ukraine. This report from James Robins.

在烏克蘭新當選總統佩特羅·波羅申科[Petro Poroshenko]宣誓就職前夕，他在諾曼底登陸日紀念儀式期間與普京[Putin]總統進行了簡短而正式的會談。這位俄羅斯領袖呼吁烏克蘭立即?；?，（James Robins）報道。

Chancellor Merkel shepherded the 2 leaders. They shook hands and talked for about a quarter of an hour just before the lunch for world leaders. French officials said a potential ceasefire between Ukrainian government forces and pro-Russian separatists were discussed. President Putin's spokesman said the two men had called for the earliest possible end to bloodshed and to military operations on both sides. Agreeing the terms could still be very hard, but the fact President Putin has all but accepted the legitimacy of Ukraine's new president by meeting him is seen by other leaders as highly significant. D-Day 2014 has certainly lodged a dialogue about ending present day efforts to redraw the map of Europe.

（Merkel）總理將這兩位領導人聚到一起。在世界領導人午餐之前，他們握手并交談了近15分鐘。法國官方稱雙方討論了烏克蘭政府軍和親俄分裂分子可能會?；鸬氖虑?。普京[Putin]總統的發言人稱兩領導人都呼吁盡快停止血腥暴力和雙方的軍事行動。同意所有條款可能很困難，但是事實上普京[Putin]總統會見了烏克蘭新總統，幾乎算是承認了其合法性，這一點具有重大意義。諾曼底登陸2014已經提出結束目前的行動來重繪歐洲地圖的對話。
