据MENA通讯社周四报道，埃及宣布一名埃塞俄比亚外交官为不受欢迎者，并要求其在48小时内离境，以报复埃塞俄比亚驱逐埃及外交官的行动。
Egypt declared an Ethiopian diplomat persona non grata and gave him 48 hours to leave the country in retaliation for Ethiopia’s expulsion of an Egyptian diplomat, the state news agency MENA reported Thursday.
一名埃及高级官员告诉MENA通讯社，开罗对埃塞俄比亚将一名在亚的斯亚贝巴埃及大使馆任职的外交官宣布为不受欢迎者的决定表示遗憾。
A senior Egyptian official told MENA that Cairo regretted Ethiopia’s decision to declare a diplomat serving at the Egyptian Embassy in Addis Ababa persona non grata.
该官员说，埃及坚决反对干涉其他国家的内政，并依照国际法和《联合国宪章》，坚持不评论埃塞俄比亚及其他国家内部局势的政策。
The official said Egypt firmly rejects interference in other countries’ internal affairs and maintains a policy of refraining from commenting on domestic developments in Ethiopia and elsewhere in accordance with international law and the UN Charter.
该官员说，根据对等原则，埃及宣布开罗埃塞俄比亚大使馆的一名参赞为不受欢迎者，并命令其在48小时内离境。
Under the principle of reciprocity, Egypt declared a counselor at the Ethiopian Embassy in Cairo persona non grata and ordered him to leave within 48 hours, the official said.
MENA通讯社称，这名参赞名叫埃加齐·埃梅洛·博鲁吉（Egazi Emelo Borougi）。
MENA identified the counselor as Egazi Emelo Borougi.
该官员说：“埃塞俄比亚方面往往将其内部事务管理不力以及接连发生的危机归咎于所谓外国干预，从而掩盖其持续存在的问题。”
“The Ethiopian side has a history of attributing its failures in managing its internal affairs and its successive crises to alleged foreign interference, thereby concealing its ongoing problems,” the official said.
此前，埃塞俄比亚下令关闭其位于厄立特里亚首都阿斯马拉的大使馆，并宣布10名在亚的斯亚贝巴任职的厄立特里亚外交官为不受欢迎者。
Ethiopia earlier ordered the closure of its embassy in the Eritrean capital Asmara and declared 10 Eritrean diplomats serving in Addis Ababa persona non grata.
随后，埃塞俄比亚又宣布驻亚的斯亚贝巴的埃及大使馆一名外交官为不受欢迎者，并要求其在规定期限内离境。
It subsequently declared a diplomat at the Egyptian Embassy in Addis Ababa persona non grata and gave him a deadline to leave the country.
