默克尔宣布放弃连任 2021年将卸任总理

German Chancellor Angela Merkel said last Monday that she would not run again for chancellor in 2021 when the current term ends.
德国总理安格拉·默克尔上周一宣布，本届任期结束后，2021年她将不再参加总理竞选。

Having served as chancellor for 13 years, Merkel told a press conference at the headquarters of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) that she will remain as chancellor for the remainder of the term.
已担任德国总理13年的默克尔在基督教民主联盟总部举行的记者会上表示，自己将继续干满本届总理任期。

Merkel has been CDU chairwoman since 2000. She said she will not run again for CDU leadership at the party\'s next federal conference in Hamburg in December.
自2000年起默克尔就开始担任基民盟党主席。她表示，12月在汉堡召开的下届基民盟全国党代会上，她将不再参选党主席。

Merkel added that she will not take any other political positions after the chancellorship.
默克尔还称，总理任期结束后，她将不再担任任何其他政治职位。

Her leadership began to wither since the 2015 European refugee crisis, when she welcomed over one million refugees to enter Germany, triggering the rise of right-populist politics and the fragmentation of the country\'s party politics.
自2015年欧洲难民危机爆发以来，默克尔的领导地位开始衰退。当时，她欢迎逾100万难民进入德国，引发了右翼民粹主义政治的兴起，并导致德国政党政治分裂。

Merkel\'s announcement came after the state election in Hesse, in which the CDU\'s votes decreased by more than 10%, compared with the last election five years ago.
在默克尔宣布上述决定前，黑森州举行了州选举，基民盟的得票率比5年前的上一次选举低了逾10%。
