韓國總統(tǒng)文在寅(Moon Jae-in)表示,他對與朝鮮最高領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人金正恩(Kim Jong Un)舉行峰會持開放態(tài)度,并稱半島無核化將是終極目標(biāo)。
The comments came on Wednesday as Mr Moon reiterated his country’s adherence to international sanctions on Pyongyang amid concerns that thawing ties between the two Koreas could reduce pressure on the reclusive regime.
文在寅周三發(fā)表此言的同時(shí),重申了韓國將遵守國際對朝制裁?,F(xiàn)在有人擔(dān)心朝韓關(guān)系解凍可能會減輕與世隔絕的朝鮮政權(quán)承受的壓力。
“South Korea will continue to keep pace with the pressure and sanctions by the international community. We have no plans to ease our unilateral sanctions against North Korea,” he said.
“韓國將在對朝施壓和制裁問題上與國際社會繼續(xù)保持步調(diào)一致。我們不考慮單獨(dú)放寬對朝制裁,”他說。
A day earlier, officials from the foreign ministry in Seoul said they would consider temporarily lifting sanctions on certain North Korean officials to allow them to visit South Korea for the winter games.
一天前,韓國外交部官員表示,他們將考慮暫時(shí)解除對某些朝鮮官員的制裁,以允許他們來韓國出席冬奧會。
Mr Moon also reiterated an earlier offer to meet Mr Kim, but added that he would not hold a summit for the sake of a summit.
文在寅也重申了他早先一項(xiàng)與金正恩會晤的提議,但他補(bǔ)充道,他不會為舉行峰會而舉行峰會。
He then thanked Donald Trump, saying the US president’s strategy of heaping pressure on Pyongyang may have brought the regime to the negotiating table.
接著,他對唐納德•特朗普(Donald Trump)表示了感謝,稱也許是這位美國總統(tǒng)對朝施加巨大壓力的戰(zhàn)略把朝鮮政權(quán)推向了談判桌。
“The dialogue between South Korea and North Korea has begun. We plan to turn this dialogue into a chance to improve South-North Korea relations and also resolve the North Korean nuclear issue through dialogue,” Mr Moon said.
“韓朝對話已經(jīng)開始。我們打算把這次對話變?yōu)楦纳祈n朝關(guān)系的機(jī)會,并通過對話解決朝核問題,”文在寅說。
Among the discussions on Tuesday, South Korean negotiators raised the issue of North Korea ending its nuclear weapons programme — comments that drew a rebuke from Pyongyang’s chief delegate.
在周二的會談中,韓國談判代表提出了朝鮮終止核武計(jì)劃的話題——此言引來朝方首席談判代表的責(zé)難。
“North Korea’s weapons are only aimed at the United States, not our brethren, China or Russia,” said Ri Son Gwon, head of the North Korean delegation.
“朝鮮的武器只瞄準(zhǔn)美國,而不是我們的同胞、中國或俄羅斯,”朝鮮代表團(tuán)團(tuán)長李善權(quán)(Ri Son Gwon)表示。
