中文注释:

一位亚美尼亚走钢丝演员在表演前用他的平衡杆支撑着身体。

纵观历史,亚美尼亚也走在地缘政治的钢丝绳上。它地处整个地区最古老的贸易要道——亚欧大陆桥。数世纪以来的外族入侵和统治使这个小小的共和国的边界改了又改,同时也让它的人民磨炼出了能屈能伸的性格。

英文注释:

Tightrope Walker, Armenia, 2004

An Armenian tightrope walker steadies himself with his balance pole as he prepared to perform a trick.

Throughout its history Armenia has walked a sort of geopolitical tightrope of its own, situated as it is on one of the region's most venerable trade routes—the land bridge between Europe and Asia. Centuries of invasion and foreign rule have shaped and reshaped this tiny republic's borders and hammered an ethic of resilience into its people.
