美國 朝鮮的鈈再處理違反聯合國決議
The United States expressed fresh concern about North Korea after Pyongyang indicated renewed nuclear activity that would allow it to churn out at least enough plutonium for one bomb annually.
平壤顯示要重啓核活動，每年生產至少足夠一枚核彈使用的鈈材料，這一發展使美國再度對朝鮮提出關注。
The announcement, made by North Korea’s Atomic Energy Institute, in a written response to Japan’s Kyodo News agency, confirms what the intelligence community, academics and analysts have been asserting for months: Pyongyang has made good on its vow to resume activities at the Yongbyon nuclear complex.
朝鮮原子能研究院在給日本共同社的一份書面回覆中做出了這一宣佈。它證實了情報界、學術界以及分析人士近幾個月來一直所斷言的：平壤已經兌現了它做出的要恢復在寧邊核設施的核活動的誓言。
“If these reports are correct, it is obviously a clear violation of U.N. Security Council resolutions, which prohibit such activities,” State Department deputy spokesman Mark Toner said in response to a VOA question.
美國國務院副發言人馬克·託納在回答美國之音記者的提問時說：“如果這些報道屬實，顯而易見，它違反了聯合國安理會有關禁止這類活動的決議。”
The 5 megawatt reactor and other facilities at Yongbyon were shut down under an agreement reached in 2007 involving North Korea and five other countries: the United States, China, Japan, Russia and South Korea. The North vowed in 2013 to resume activities 90 kilometers north of the capital.
根據2007年朝鮮與美國、中國、日本、俄羅斯和韓國這五個國家達成的協議，寧邊核設施5兆瓦的核反應爐以及其它設施被關閉。但是，朝鮮2013年誓言要在首都以北90公里的地方恢復核活動。
The International Atomic Energy Agency, a U.N. body, had no immediate public reaction, but officials there noted the announcement comes as no surprise. IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano told reporters in June that the Yongbyon reactor had been restarted, either for enrichment or reprocessing.
聯合國國際原子能機構尚未作出公開回應，但那裏的官員指出，朝鮮的上述宣佈並不令人感到意外。該機構總幹事天野之彌6月份對記者說，寧邊的核反應爐已重新啓動，以便進行核材料的濃縮或再處理。
The IAEA is to issue its annual report on North Korea’s nuclear activities in a few weeks, which will contain additional assessments of the reclusive state’s atomic activities.
國際原子能機構將在幾個星期後公佈有關朝鮮核活動的年度報告，其中將包括有關這個對外封閉的國家原子能活動的附加評估。
