【原文标题】China, Russia Plan $242 Billion Beijing-Moscow Rail Link【中文标题】中俄拟建北京-莫斯科高铁 预投2420亿美元【文章来源】彭博社【文章链接】http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2015-01-22/china-russia-plan-242-billion-beijing-moscow-rail-link.htmlChina will build a 7,000-kilometer (4,350-mile) high-speed rail link from Beijing to Moscow, at a cost of 1.5 trillion yuan ($242 billion), Beijing’s city government said on the social networking site Weibo.北京市政府在官方微博发布消息称，中国预计投入1.5万亿人民币（2420亿美元）建造连接北京和莫斯科的高铁，全长约7000公里（4350英里）。
The rail line seeks to facilitate travel across Europe and Asia, Beijing’s municipal government said Jan. 21 in a post on Weibo, China’s equivalent of Twitter. The journey from Beijing to Moscow would take “two days” on a route passing through Kazakhstan, the post said.北京市政府希望通过该铁路能促进中欧旅游的发展。此高铁从北京出发，途径哈萨克斯坦，大约两天到达终点莫斯科。
The proposed rail line comes as Russia’s economy struggles to recover from the fall in the price of crude oil and as relations with the U.S. and Europe deteriorate over the Ukraine conflict, and as China pushes to market its high-speed rail technology internationally.由于俄罗斯与乌克兰发生冲突导致俄罗斯与欧美关系恶化、石油价格下跌，俄罗斯经济不容乐观，该铁路的修建被寄予希望改善俄罗斯的经济状况，同时也是中国将其高铁技术推向国际市场的契机。
The rail line was mooted in November, after Russia and China last year agreed on the largest natural-gas supply deal in history. Alexander Misharin, a first vice-president at state-owned OAO Russian Railways, said in a Nov. 18 interview that the plan would cost $60 billion to reach Russia’s border, and would cut the Beijing-Moscow journey from five days to 30 hours.该铁路是继去年中俄签订历史上最大单天然气供应协议之后的提出的又一大中俄合作项目。俄罗斯国营铁路公司的副主席Alexander Misharin去年11月18日接受记者采访时称，该铁路项目上俄罗斯将投入600亿美元，建成后从北京到莫斯科的火车将从5天缩小到30个小时。
In May, after more than a decade of talks, natural-gas exporter OAO Gazprom reached a $400 billion deal with China to build a pipeline and start supplies. Misharin, in the November comments, compared the new transport network to the Suez Canal “in terms of scale and significance.”去年5月，俄罗斯天然气工业股份公司与中国签署4000亿美元的天然供应协议，这是双方时隔十几年后的再一次合作。Misharin在11月的发言称，中俄高铁“在规模和重要性上”堪比苏伊士运河。
Those comments came a month after a delegation to Moscow led by Chinese Premier Li Keqiang signed accords that included high-speed rail cooperation, a three-year 150 billion yuan ($24 billion) local-currency swap deal and a double-taxation treaty.此前一个月，中国总理李克强访俄代表团曾与俄罗斯签订了高铁合作项目协议、有效期为三年的1500亿元人民币/8150亿卢布的双边本币互换协议以及一份避免双重税和防止偷漏税的新协定。
The link to Beijing would take eight to 10 years to build, Misharin said in November.Misharin当时称，北京到莫斯科高铁的建造将花费八到十年的时间。
