This week, world leaders have an opportunity to steer developments onto a new and more hopeful path when they meet in London to forge a new compact with Afghanistan. The compact builds on the 2001 Bonn Agreement, which laid the framework for a democratic Afghanistan but left much to be done to overcome that war-torn country’s tragic legacy.
本周，世界领导人们聚会英国伦敦，与阿富汗签订一项新协议，从而有机会将进展引入一个新的、更为充满希望的途径上来。这项协议将建立在2001年波恩协议基础之上。波恩协议为民主阿富汗制定了框架，但是，在克服这一饱受战乱之苦的国家悲剧性的遗产上仍然有所欠缺。
