People in Iceland could be heading back to the polls in November after Prime Minister Bjarni Benediktsson announced the dissolution of the country's governing coalition.
在冰岛总理比亚德尼·贝内迪克松宣布解散执政联盟后，冰岛人民可能要在11月重新投票。
Speaking at a surprise press conference in Reykjavik, Benediktsson cited infighting between the three political parties that make up the coalition as his reason for ending it.
在雷克雅未克的一场出人意料的新闻发布会上，贝内迪克松称，组成执政联盟的三个政党之间的内讧是他解散该联盟的原因。
Iceland's coalition government is made up of Benediktsson's conservative Independence Party, the centre-right Progressive Party and the leftist Greens.
冰岛的执政联盟是由贝内迪克松所在的保守的独立党、中右翼的进步党和左翼的绿党组成。
Benediktsson said parliamentary elections are slated to take place on 30 November, if President Halla Tómasdóttir accepts the motion to dissolve parliament.
贝内迪克松表示，如果总统哈德拉·托马斯多蒂尔接受解散议会的动议，那么议会选举将于今年11月30日举行。
But one member of the coalition said the decision had come as a surprise.
但该执政联盟的一名成员称，贝内迪克松的这一决定令人意外。
"I thought that was our mutual understanding that the most important issue was the economy.
“我认为我们的共识是，最重要的问题是经济。
Housing and issues regular people are facing like making ends meet.
住房和普通群众面临的问题，比如收支平衡。
I thought that was our most pressing issue but now we can see that other issues are more important for the prime minister."
我认为这是我们最紧迫的问题，但现在我们可以看到，对总理来说，其他问题更重要。”
The ruling coalition, in power since November 2021, has faltered under a raft of problems, particularly after a series of volcanic eruptions in the country forced thousands to evacuate their homes.
自2021年11月执政以来，冰岛的执政联盟在一系列问题下摇摇欲坠，尤其是在该国一系列火山爆发迫使数千人撤离家园之后。
That put more pressure on an economy already dealing with high inflation and Rising interest rates.
这给本就已在疲于应对高通胀和利率上升的冰岛经济带来了更大压力。
