韓國向朝鮮提議舉行軍事會談

South Korea has proposed military talks with North Korea as the new administration in Seoul looks to calm tensions and launch a peace process on the peninsula.

韓國已提議與朝鮮舉行軍事會談。新一屆韓國政府希望舒緩韓朝緊張局勢，啟動半島和平進程。

The move to engage with the Kim Jong Un regime, which this month successfully tested its first inter-continental ballistic missile, is likely to rile the US, as President Donald Trump attempts to rally the international community to bolster sanctions and pile pressure on Pyongyang.

朝鮮本月成功測試了其首枚洲際彈道導(dǎo)彈。韓方與金正恩(Kim Jong Un)政權(quán)展開接觸的舉措，很可能會激怒美國。美國總統(tǒng)唐納德•特朗普(Donald Trump)正努力號召國際社會加大對朝鮮的制裁和施壓。

Should Pyongyang agree to the overture, the military talks would be the first for three years. They have been slated for Friday in the truce village of Panmunjom, located in the heavily fortified but misnamed demilitarised zone, or DMZ, between the two nations.

如果平壤方面接受這一提議，將是三年來雙方首次舉行軍事會談。韓方提議本周五在板門店舉行此次會談。板門店這個村子位于韓朝兩國之間戒備森嚴、名不副實的非軍事區(qū)，是停戰(zhàn)條約簽署地。

The proposal comes a week after South Korea’s President Moon Jae-in outlined his vision for dialogue with North Korea during a speech in Berlin.

一周前，韓國總統(tǒng)文在寅(Moon Jae-in)在柏林發(fā)表講話時概述了他與朝鮮展開對話的愿景。

“We do not want North Korea’s collapse, nor will we seek any form of unification by absorption,” he said. 他表示：“我們既不希望朝鮮崩潰，也不尋求任何形式的吞并式統(tǒng)一。”

Seoul has also proposed reopening Red Cross talks, aimed at resuming reunions of families split by the bisection of the peninsula during the Korean war in the 1950s.

首爾方面還提議重啟紅十字會(Red Cross)會談，以恢復(fù)南北離散家庭團聚活動。上世紀50年代朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭導(dǎo)致的半島分裂造成了這些家庭的離散。

North Korea has yet to respond to Seoul’s proposal but experts in Seoul expect Pyongyang to agree to military talks, although it is less likely to be co-operative on resuming reunions of separated families.

朝鮮尚未對首爾方面的建議作出回應(yīng)，但首爾的專家預(yù)計平壤方面會同意舉行軍事會談，盡管朝方在恢復(fù)南北離散家庭團聚方面合作的可能性較小。
