An industrial dispute

As is typical of the choreography around an industrial dispute, both sides have exchanged strong words in recent weeks.

最近几个星期，双方都言辞强硬，毫不相让，这种围绕争议议题的表演非常典型。

Now, an industrial accident—a gaseous explosion in the piping of the polemical Botnia plant in Fray Bento, Uruguay on February 27th—has fuelled the dispute anew.

现在，一场工业事故——2月27日，乌拉圭弗雷本多的一家好事工厂发生了管道气体引起的爆炸——再度生起争端。

When the two sides in an important industrial dispute reach deadlock the Secretary of State may attempt to mediate between them.

当双方在一重要工业问题上出现僵局时，国务卿可能会出面进行调停。
