engelska-danska översättning av portrait

portrætFor nylig blev nogle tibetanske munke dømt, angiveligt for at være i besiddelse af portrætter af Dalai Lama. Recently, some Tibetan monks were sentenced, allegedly for possessing portraits of the Dalai Lama. I lufthavnen lagde jeg mærke til, at der virkelig i hvert rum hænger et portræt af den syriske præsident Hafez al-Assad og hans forulykkede søn. It struck me in the airport that every hall had a portrait of the Syrian President Hafez al-Assad and his dead son. Det eksempel, som kommissionsmedlemmet gav, nemlig at man fængsler munke for at have et portræt af Dalai Lama, er bare et eksempel på, hvor absurd denne undertrykkelse er. The example given by the Commissioner, namely of monks being imprisoned for having portraits of the Dalai Lama, is just one example of how absurd this oppression is.
