The Malaysian government has stated it intends to abolish the death penalty in a move that has been welcomed by human rights campaigners. Malaysia's Law Minister said: "The death penalty will be abolished. Full stop". He added: "Since we are abolishing the sentence, all executions should not be carried out." There are currently over 1,267 people on death row in Malaysia who are set to win a reprieve. The law minister said prisoners on death row would be released or have their sentences commuted. He said: "When commuted, they would have to face life imprisonment because there had been several deaths that were caused by the offender and so they were sentenced to death." Malaysia's decision was hailed by Amnesty International. Its Secretary General Kumi Naidoo said: "Malaysia must now join the 106 countries who have turned their backs for good on the ultimate cruel, inhumane, degrading punishment. The world is watching." Mr Naidoo added: "There is no time to waste. The death penalty should have been consigned to the history books long ago. Malaysia's new government has promised to deliver on human rights, and today's announcement is an encouraging sign, but much more needs to be done." There are still 23 countries that retain the death penalty. According to Amnesty International, there were 993 executions recorded worldwide in 2017.
Правительство Малайзии заявило о намерении отменить смертную казнь, что приветствовали правозащитники. Министр Юстиции Малайзии сказал: «Смертная казнь будет отменена. Полный стоп». Он добавил: «Поскольку мы отменяем приговор, все казни не должны больше исполняться». В настоящий момент в Малайзии более 1267 человек находятся в камере смертников, которые должны получить отсрочку. Министр Юстиции сказал, что заключенные, приговоренные к смертной казни, будут освобождены или их приговор изменят. Он сказал: «Когда приговор изменят, они столкнутся с пожизненным заключением, потому что по вине преступника произошло несколько смертей, за это и была назначена смертная казнь». Решение Малайзии было одобрено организацией Международная амнистия. Ее генеральный секретарь Куми Найду заявил: «Малайзия должна теперь присоединиться к 106 странам, которые навсегда отвернулись от окончательного жестокого, бесчеловечного и унижающего достоинство наказания. Весь мир следит». Мистер Найду добавил: «Нельзя терять времени. Смертная казнь давно должна была быть занесена в учебники истории. Новое правительство Малайзии обещало обеспечить соблюдение прав человека, и сегодняшнее заявление является обнадеживающим знаком, однако многое еще предстоит сделать». Есть еще 23 страны, которые сохраняют смертную казнь. По данным Amnesty International, в 2017 году во всем мире было зафиксировано 993 казни.

4. Write about death penalty for 10 minutes.
The Death penalty is the deprivation of a person's life by a court verdict, the capital punishment provided for by law; the question of its validity and permissibility is the subject of public debate, in which philosophical and ethical arguments play an essential role. There are two main views on the nature and purpose of the death penalty. According to one view, the death penalty is a means of preventing further serious crimes by the offender through physical removal and potential criminals by the deterrence of the real threat of death. The recognition of the need for the death penalty is relative here, because it is due to the success in preventing serious crimes. According to another view, the death penalty is retribution for a crime that should follow regardless of any considerations of expediency. The recognition of the necessity of the death penalty in this case is absolute and is conditioned only by the fact of a serious crime.
According modern Russian legislative, the death penalty as an exceptional measure of punishment can only be imposed for particularly serious crimes that infringe on life. The death penalty is not imposed on women, as well as on persons who have committed crimes under the age of eighteen, and on men who have reached the age of sixty-five by the time the court passes sentence. The death penalty shall not be imposed on a person who has been extradited to the Russian Federation by a foreign state for criminal prosecution in accordance with an international Treaty of the Russian Federation or on the basis of the principle of reciprocity. The Death penalty may be commuted by way of pardon to life imprisonment or twenty-five years imprisonment.
