据美联社报道，这个西非由军政府统治的国家布基纳法索的议会通过了一项新的刑法，恢复了针对恐怖主义、间谍活动和叛国等罪行的死刑。
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The parliament in the West African junta-run nation of Burkina Faso has adopted a new penal code reinstating the death penalty for crimes including terrorism, espionage and treason.
根据该国司法部长埃达索·罗德里格·巴亚拉（Edasso Rodrigue Bayala）的说法，布基纳法索的71名立法者周二一致投票通过了这项新刑法。
According to the country’s justice minister, Edasso Rodrigue Bayala, all 71 members of the Burkina Faso legislature unanimously voted in favor of adopting the new penal code on Tuesday.
这一决定终结了自2018年以来在前民主选举总统罗什·马克·克里斯蒂安·卡博雷（Roch Marc Christian Kabore）执政期间实施的死刑废除政策。
The development ends the abolition of the death penalty, which had been in effect since 2018 under the previous and democratically elected president , Roch Marc Christian Kabore.
据人权观察组织（Human Rights Watch）称，布基纳法索最后一次执行死刑发生在1988年。
The last known execution in Burkina Faso took place in 1988, according to Human Rights Watch.
军政府的部长会议在12月批准了恢复死刑的法案，此举引发了国际人权组织如大赦国际（Amnesty International）和人权观察（Human Rights Watch）的强烈反对，他们批评这一举措具有压迫性，是压制异见的手段。
The junta’s Council of Ministers approved a bill reinstating capital punishment in December, prompting a backlash from human rights organizations such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, which criticized the move as repressive and an effort to suppress dissent.
2024年，巴亚拉宣布‘死刑问题正在讨论中，并将最终实施’。
In 2024, Bayala announced that “the issue of the death penalty … is being discussed (and) will be implemented.”
该军政府此前曾被指控通过拘留人权捍卫者和记者来迫害异见人士，还解散了国内所有政党并废除了相关法律。
The military junta has previously been accused of targeting dissidents by detaining human rights defenders and journalists . It also dissolved all political parties in the country and scrapped the laws governing them earlier this year.
目前，这个拥有2300万人口的内陆国家正面临安全危机，政府军与与基地组织和伊斯兰国（ISIS）有关联的武装组织交战。
The move comes as landlocked Burkina Faso, a country of 23 million people, grapples with a security crisis as authorities battle militant groups linked to al-Qaida and the Islamic State group .
人权组织指出，政府军和隶属于基地组织的‘Jama’at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin’武装组织都犯有战争罪和反人类罪。
Both government forces and militants from Jama’at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin, an al-Qaida-aligned group, have been accused of war crimes and crimes against humanity by rights groups.
人权观察今年的一份报告称，2023年至2025年间，政府军杀害的平民人数是武装分子的两倍多。
A Human Rights Watch report this year said government forces killed over twice as many civilians as jihadis between 2023 and 2025.
