Affected by the accident, the railway will be closed for 6 days. The cause of the accident is under investigation.

This train departs from Euston Station in London, England at 5pm local time on 23rd (65: 438+0: 00am Beijing time on 24th) and goes to Glasgow Central Station in the northwest.

At about 8 pm local time on 23rd (4 am Beijing time on 24th), the train derailed between Orson Hemei and Taibo in Cumbria.

Passengers who survived the robbery said in an interview with British media that they seemed to be riding on a bumpy plane.

The train overturned and bottles and bags flew everywhere. 53-year-old passenger Celal? Ibrahim was badly injured and it was very difficult to speak.

When the train derailed, the speed was as high as 150 km per hour. As for the number of passengers, the British media previously reported that there were 180 to 200 people in the car. But Rush said there were about 120 people in the car.

The cause of the accident is still unknown.

The authorities began to investigate the cause of the accident on the morning of the 24th.

Porter, who lives next to the accident section, said that the accident area was very remote and he had never seen anyone destroy the tracks. "The cause of the accident is a mystery. I don't know how this accident happened. "

Democrats in the United States want to abolish Bush's war authorization.

Democrats called the war authorization "outdated", and the White House later opposed it.

Iran reaffirms its continuing nuclear program.

According to Xinhua News Agency, the US media revealed on the 23rd that some Democrats in Congress plan to push a bill to abolish the authorization given to Bush by the Senate and the House of Representatives in 2002 to launch the Iraq war. These lawmakers plan to restrict the movement of troops in Iraq and prepare for the withdrawal of combat troops.

Democrats are very active.

Joseph, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said: "We authorize the President to destroy Iraq's weapons of mass destruction and, if necessary, overthrow Saddam Hussein's regime." Biden said in a speech last week, "There are no weapons of mass destruction there, Saddam Hussein is gone, and the authorization in 2002 is no longer in line with the current situation in Iraq."

John? Kerry is a well-known figure in the anti-war school. He said: "The authorization we gave to the president in 2002 is completely outdated and does not match the current situation we are facing."

Under the obstruction of Republicans, Democratic senators opposed Bush's resolution to send more troops to Iraq, which was blocked twice in the Senate recently. In the face of obstacles set by Republicans, Senate Majority Leader Harry? Reid said that he would try to pass a new binding bill.

The White House is watching.

In the face of the Democrats' intention of "restricting power", the White House remains calm. White House spokesman Tony? Flateau told reporters on 23rd that the authorization passed in 2002 is still valid and feasible. "The US Congress passed, and there is no sunset yet."

Flateau said that Democrats have not formally introduced this bill, so he will not discuss this "hypothetical bill". "We don't know what they (Democrats) want to do. The only thing that is clear is that Democrats seem to have serious differences on what they want to do. "

White House officials have their reasons to be calm, because there are differences among Democrats, and even if the new bill is supported by the majority of the party, it will face Republican obstruction in Congress. Whether this bill can be finally introduced and passed is still unknown.

According to Xinhua News Agency, Tehran, February 23rd, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad?

Mohammed, vice chairman of the Iranian Atomic Energy Organization? Saadi reiterated on the 22nd that Iran cannot accept the relevant provisions of UN Security Council Resolution 1737, which requires Iran to stop uranium enrichment activities, and will continue to implement its nuclear program.

Saadi said that Iran plans to install 3,000 centrifuges for the production of enriched uranium in the near future, and has informed the International Atomic Energy Agency of the relevant plans. Iran will continue to implement this plan, and it is expected that these centrifuges will be put into operation in May.

Diplomats of the International Atomic Energy Agency confirmed to Xinhua News Agency on the 22nd that ElBaradei submitted a report on Iran's implementation of Security Council resolution 1737 to the Agency's Board of Governors and the UN Security Council that day. The report concluded that Iran failed to stop its controversial uranium enrichment activities within the 60-day period set by the Security Council.

According to Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, February 23rd, the international community is generally worried about Iran's failure to implement Security Council resolutions, and countries such as the United States and Britain have expressed their hope to seek further sanctions against Iran.

US Deputy Secretary of State Nicholas? Burns confirmed that he will go to London on 26th to meet with representatives from China, Britain, France, Russian and German. The United States hopes to draft another draft resolution on sanctions against Iran. It is reported that the United States is working out the contents of a new Security Council draft resolution on the Iranian nuclear issue. It is expected that compared with resolution 1737, the sanctions of the new resolution will be more comprehensive and severe, covering energy, economy and trade, military industry, finance, personnel travel and other aspects related to Iran's nuclear industry.

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, February 23rd-Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing of China telephoned Iranian Foreign Minister Mottaki on the 23rd and exchanged views on the Iranian nuclear issue and issues of common concern.
