South Korean Delegation Begins First Day of Talks in North Korea
韓國代表抵達(dá)朝鮮開始首日會談
The leaders of South Korea and North Korea have completed their first day of talks in Pyongyang, North Korea. The visit is the third meeting between Moon Jae-in and Kim Jong Un this year.
韓朝兩國領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人已經(jīng)在朝鮮平壤結(jié)束了第一天的會談。這次訪問是文在寅和金正恩之間今年的第三次會面。
Moon's main reason for the visit is to find ways to increase economic cooperation and avoid armed conflict between South and North Korea. He also aims to work toward a "North Korea-United States dialogue for denuclearization."
文在寅此行的主要目的是尋找加強(qiáng)朝韓之間經(jīng)濟(jì)合作并避免武裝沖突的途徑。他還致力于實(shí)現(xiàn)“朝美無核化對話。”
Moon says he has confirmed that both Kim and U.S. President Donald Trump want to denuclearize the Korean Peninsula. Progress on the issue could be made quickly if the two men meet again and talk, he said.
文在寅表示,他已經(jīng)證實(shí)了金正恩和美國總統(tǒng)川普都希望實(shí)現(xiàn)朝鮮半島無核化。他說,如果這兩人再次會談,這個(gè)問題就能迅速取得進(jìn)展。
A summit of firsts
峰會的眾多第一次
The summit between Moon and Kim marked a number of firsts, says South Korean spokesman Yoon Young-chan.
韓國發(fā)言人尹永燦(Yoon Young-chan)表示,文在寅和金正恩之間的這次峰會標(biāo)志著很多的第一次。
Yoon told reporters that Tuesday's events marked the first time Kim Jong Un has opened a summit in Pyongyang. Yoon added that a military band welcomed the South Korean group with music that is usually played only for North Korea's senior leaders.
尹永燦對記者表示,周二的活動標(biāo)志著金正恩首次在平壤舉辦峰會。尹永燦還補(bǔ)充說,一支軍樂隊(duì)歡迎了韓國一行,他們演奏了通常只針對朝鮮高級領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人的音樂。
It was also a first when Moon and Kim walked along the red carpet at Pyongyang's Sunan International Airport. The South Korean leader then inspected North Korean troops.
這也是文在寅和金正恩首次在平壤順安國際機(jī)場走紅毯。韓國領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人隨后還檢閱了朝鮮軍隊(duì)。
Following the events at the airport, the first session of the inter-Korea summit began in the headquarters of the Central Committee of the North Korean Worker's Party.
在機(jī)場的活動之后,朝韓峰會的第一次會議在朝鮮工人黨中央委員會的總部開始進(jìn)行。
Associated Press reporters noted that Moon and Kim share an interest in expanding business projects across the border. Currently, however, all major projects between the two Koreas are slowed or stopped because of U.S.-led sanctions.
美聯(lián)社記者指出,文在寅和金正恩都有興趣擴(kuò)大跨境商業(yè)項(xiàng)目。然而,目前由于美國主導(dǎo)的制裁,朝韓之間所有的重大項(xiàng)目都已放緩或停止。
And the nuclear issue remains an obstacle. Kim has indicated that he is willing to talk to U.S. officials again about the issue. However, at the same time, he has tried to create direct ties to South Korea. Kim's goal appears to speak directly to South Korean officials about how to bring peace and stability to the area.
核問題仍然是一大障礙。金正恩指出,他愿意同美國官員再次商討這一問題。然而與此同時(shí),他試圖跟韓國建立直接聯(lián)系。金正恩的目標(biāo)似乎是直接同韓國官員探討如何為該地區(qū)帶來和平和穩(wěn)定。
Likely outcomes
可能的成果
On Tuesday afternoon, South Korean spokesman Yoon Young-chan told reporters it was not clear how much progress would be made on denuclearization issues. He also said to wait until after Wednesday's talks for the possible announcement of any decisions.
周二下午,韓國發(fā)言人尹永燦對記者表示,目前尚不清楚在無核化問題上會取得多大進(jìn)展。他還表示,要等到周三會談之后才有可能宣布任何決定。
Kim Hyun-wook is a professor at the Korea National Diplomatic Academy. He told reporters that if no agreements come out of the summit, another meeting between Trump and Kim is unlikely.
金允武(Kim Hyun-wook)是韓國國立外交學(xué)院的一名教授。他對記者表示,如果這次峰會未能達(dá)成任何協(xié)議,那么川普和金正恩之間的再一次會面也就不太可能。
