CNN News: 安理會加大施壓力度 印度減少對朝貿(mào)易

International pressure is increasing for North Korea to give up its controversial missile and nuclear programs. The communist Asian country has shown no signs that it's willing to do that. It tried to test-fire another missile on Saturday. But U.S. officials say it's failed, apparently exploding while it was still over North Korean territory. Still, the attempt was an active defiance by the country.
國際社會正在加大對朝鮮的施壓力度，希望該國放棄其備受爭議的導(dǎo)彈及核項目。然而該亞洲社會主義國家朝鮮卻未表露出任何愿放棄核項目意愿的跡象。周六，朝鮮再次試射導(dǎo)彈。不過美國官方表示，此次導(dǎo)彈試射失敗，導(dǎo)彈還在朝鮮境內(nèi)時就爆炸了。盡管如此，這次試射是該國進行的又一次反抗。
It came after an announcement by India that it would stop all of its trade, except for food and medicine, with North Korea. Until that decision, India was reportedly its third biggest trading partner after China and Saudi Arabia.
印度宣布將暫停除食品和醫(yī)藥外的一切對朝貿(mào)易活動后，朝鮮進行了此次導(dǎo)彈試射。在做出這一決定之前，印度是僅次于中國和沙特阿拉伯的、朝鮮第三大貿(mào)易伙伴。
For more than 10 years, the United Nations Security Council has tried to North Korea to give up its nuclear weapons program. It's done this through sanctions, penalties on North Korea's economy.
10多年以來，聯(lián)合國安全理事會一直在試圖讓朝鮮放棄其核武器項目。安理會通過對朝鮮實施制裁和經(jīng)濟懲罰來達到這一目的。
But even though India is a member of the United Nations and even though it's been elected to the U.N. Security Council several times before, it hasn't fully complied with U.N. sanctions on North Korea until now.
不過，即使印度是聯(lián)合國的成員國，此前還曾多次入選安理會，但是迄今為止印度并沒有完全遵從聯(lián)合國對朝鮮實施的制裁。
Welcome to the United Nations Security Council.
歡迎來到聯(lián)合國安理會。
The one thing you need to know is that the Security Council is the most significant part of the U.N. because it's supposed to protect and maintain international peace and security in the world.
你需要明白一點，聯(lián)合國安理會是聯(lián)合國最重要的機構(gòu)，因為安理會的職責(zé)是保護和維護國際和平以及世界安全。
The Security Council is made up of 15 different countries. They sit here around this circular table. Five countries have had permanent status since the start of the Security Council over 70years ago. They are the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Russia and China.
聯(lián)合國安理會有15個成員國。這些國家的代表會圍坐一堂召開圓桌會議。安理會在70多年前成立后，確定了五個常任理事國，分別是美國、英國、法國、俄羅斯和中國。
Their job is to determine if there is a threat to peace or an act of aggression somewhere in the world. It often calls on sides to settle differences by peaceful means or send envoys to start negotiations.
常任理事國的職責(zé)是確定世界上是否存在威脅和平的情況或是否存在侵略行徑。安理會經(jīng)常呼吁各方通過和平方式或派遣特使展開談判來解決分歧。
If things don't go well, it's the Security Council that approves punishment to enforce cooperation in the form of sanctions. When all else fails, the Security Council can authorize the use of force to stop the fighting or threat.
如果進展不順，安理會則會以制裁的形式進行懲罰以強制各方進行合作。如果所有方法均告失敗，那安理會可以授權(quán)使用武力來終止戰(zhàn)斗或威脅。
