Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos has won the 2016 Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to bring his country’s five-decade-long civil war to an end, the Norwegian Nobel Committee announced Friday.
挪威诺贝尔委员会于本周五宣布，哥伦比亚总统胡安·曼努埃尔·桑托斯获得2016年诺贝尔和平奖，以表彰其为结束该国历时50多年的内战所做出的努力。
"The award should also be seen as a tribute to the Colombian people, who ... have not given up hope of a just peace, and to all the parties who have contributed to the peace process," Kaci Kullmann Five, chairperson of the five-member committee, said in her announcement.
五人委员会主席凯茜·库尔曼·菲弗在通告中说道：“该奖项同时也可被视作对哥伦比亚人民以及参与和平进程各方的致敬，尽管历经艰难困苦，他们从来没有放弃寻求正义和平的希望。”
Santos initiated the negotiations that culminated in a peace accord between the Colombian government and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, the country’s largest rebel group. But the peace agreement was narrowly rejected in a referendum on Sunday.
桑托斯发起的谈判使哥伦比亚政府与哥伦比亚革命武装力量（该国最大的反政府武装）签署了全面和平协议。但是该和平协议在本周日的全民公决中未获通过。
"The fact that a majority of the voters said no to the peace accord does not necessarily mean that the peace process is dead," Five said. "The referendum was not a vote for or against peace. What the ’No’ side rejected was not the desire for peace, but a specific peace agreement."
“尽管该和平协议在全民公决中未获通过，但这并不意味着和平进程的终结。”菲弗表示。“公投并不是赞成或反对和平。反对方只是反对一份特定的和平协议，而不是拒绝对和平的渴望。”
There are 376 candidates for the Nobel Peace Prize for 2016, out of which 228 are individuals and 148 are organizations. this is by far the highest number of candidates ever. The previous record, 278 candidates, was set in 2014.
2016年诺贝尔和平奖有376个候选人，其中228个为个人，148个为组织。这是目前为止候选人数量最高的一次。之前的记录是2014年创下的278个候选人。
