聯合國表示10月有超過21.8萬名移民冒險橫渡地中海

The United Nations says more than 218,000 migrants crossed the Mediterranean Sea during the month of October, more than the total amount of migrants that crossed in all of last year.

聯合國說，今年十月有超過21.8萬名移民橫渡地中海，比去年一年的總人數還多。

The U.N. refugee agency says 210,265 people crossed the sea from Turkey to Greece last month and another 8,129 travelled from North Africa to Italy. The UNHCR estimates that in 2014 about 216,000 people crossed the Mediterranean with another 3,000 crossing Turkey's land border.

聯合國難民署說，有21萬265人上個月從土耳其橫渡地中海前往希臘，另有8129人從北非前往意大利。難民署估計2014年有大約21.6萬人跨越地中海，另有3000人穿越土耳其地面邊境。

Most of the recent arrivals have been in Greece, where the daily rate peaked at 10,006 people on October 20.

最近大多數移民抵達希臘，10月20號那裏的移民人數爲10006人，達到單日最高峯。

"We are in a period of record numbers of forced displacements globally," said UNHCR Spokesman Adrian Edwards. "It is a new phenomenon that we will have to deal with. This is a phenomenon that isn't going away quickly."

聯合國難民署發言人愛德華茲說，“我們正面臨全球性的被迫流離失所時期。”他說，“這是我們將不得不處理的新問題，這一情況不會很快消失。”

On Monday, Eurogroup chairman Jeroen Dijsselbloem said fallout from the migrant crisis could affect the budget of some countries, like debt-ridden Greece.

歐元集團主席戴鬆布倫說，移民危機處理不好將會影響到一些國家的財政預算，比如負債累累的希臘。

"In some countries there's a risk of derailing the budget, getting off track, and those individual cases the EC should... take into consideration," he said.

他說，“一些國家有預算超支、陷入困境的風險，這些個別情況歐元集團將會予以考慮。”

Dijsselbloem told a group of reporters in The Hague that "we need to do as much as we can to help Greece deal with it."

戴鬆布倫在海牙對一羣記者們說，“我們需要盡力幫助希臘處理這一危機。”
