ally

1. 戈爾巴喬夫和他克里姆林宮改革派盟友們，準(zhǔn)備容忍，甚至鼓勵溫和的民族主義分子向中央控制挑戰(zhàn)并要求獨(dú)立。可是莫斯科自有理由覺得：在一個操多種語言，由102個民族組成的國家里，族裔之間的暴力則屬過分。
   Mr.Gorbachev and his reformist Kremlin allies are prepared to tolerate, even encourage, moderate nationalists who challenge central control and demand autonomy. But Moscow rightly feels that, in a polyglot country with102 different nationalities, ethnic violence is beyond the pale.
2. 我們的處境已不容我們對盟友再存多少幻想了。
