German Chancellor Angela Merkel has fractured a bone in her pelvis in a cross-country skiing accident in Switzerland, her spokesman says.
德国政府发言人表示，总理安吉拉·默克尔在瑞士度假期间滑雪摔伤骨盆骨折。
She will have to remain lying down as much as possible in the next three weeks and several visits will be cancelled, Steffen Seibert said.
发言人塞柏特表示，默克尔总理未来三周需尽可能多地平躺，所以部分出访和会见行程将取消。
She also suffered heavy bruising in the accident, in the alpine Engadine region of eastern Switzerland. Ms Merkel was not skiing fast at the time, the spokesman added. He called the injury "severe bruising linked with a partial fracture on the left, rear part of the pelvis".
事故发现在瑞士东部恩加丁地区，默克尔摔倒造成了严重擦伤。发言人还表示，默克尔是以低速滑行时摔倒受伤的，伤势为“严重擦伤伴随左后侧髋骨不完全骨折”。
Ms Merkel still intends to chair a cabinet meeting on Wednesday - the first gathering of all her coalition ministers. She is now walking with the aid of crutches.
默克尔还是坚持亲自主持本周三的内阁会议，这也是默克尔连任后的首次内阁会议。她目前需要借助拐杖行走。
But mostly she will be working from home. She has cancelled a trip to Poland this week and will not receive Luxembourg's new prime minister Xavier Bettel in Berlin, the spokesman said.
不过发言人表示，默克尔大部分时间还是会在家办公，她已经取消了部分行程，包括原定8日出访波兰及9日在柏林接待到访的卢森堡首相。
Ms Merkel's injury comes just days after fellow German Michael Schumacher's life-threatening skiing accident in France.
就在默克尔滑雪摔伤前不久，德国籍车手迈克尔·舒马赫就在法国因为滑雪事故造成重伤。
