曾担任美国前总统小布什(George W. Bush)的朝鲜问题高级顾问的Victor Cha说,我们目前采取的制裁和外交手段都未能阻止朝鲜,防止武器扩散的重要性现在大大加强了。
The United Nations Security Council condemned the North's launch of a three-stage rocket that Pyongyang claimed had placed a weather satellite into orbit earlier Wednesday. The launch appeared to be North Korea's first breakthrough following four largely unsuccessful tries since 1998.
联合国安理会谴责了朝鲜发射三级火箭的行为。朝鲜称,这枚火箭在周三早些时候把一颗气象卫星送入了轨道。这次的火箭发射似乎是朝鲜1998年以来四次大体上不成功的尝试之后的一个突破。
U.S. officials said they believed the launch was cover for North Korea to further develop long-range missiles that could eventually carry nuclear warheads capable of threatening Washington's allies in Asia, and, potentially, the U.S. West Coast. Japanese authorities estimated the rocket's range at about 3,700 miles.
美国官员说,他们认为这次火箭发射是朝鲜进一步开发远程导弹的掩护,这些远程导弹最终可能会携带核弹头,从而威胁到美国在亚洲的盟友,甚至美国西海岸。日本政府估计,这枚火箭的射程大约为37,00英里。
Pyongyang has conducted two nuclear tests over the past decade, and U.S. intelligence agencies estimate it has produced enough fissile material for as many as a dozen atomic bombs.
