朝鮮譴責聯合國制裁措施
The United Nations Security Council has ordered tougher sanctions against North Korea for its December rocket launch, prompting Pyongyang to defiantly hint at another nuclear test.
The 15-member Security Council on Tuesday voted unanimously to condemn the launch as a ballistic missile test banned under existing U.N. sanctions. It also threatened to take "significant action" if Pyongyang conducts more launches or tests.
North Korea responded immediately, saying it would hold no more talks on de-nuclearization. It also vowed to boost its military and "nuclear deterrence," a statement many interpreted as a threat to conduct another nuclear test.
Pyongyang has twice before conducted nuclear tests following U.N. sanctions imposed after long-range rocket launches. Recent satellite photos suggest it may be preparing to conduct a third test.聯合國安理會決定針對朝鮮去年12月發射火箭，對其實行更嚴厲的制裁，此後引起朝鮮挑戰性的暗示它將再次進行核試驗。
星期二，安理會15個成員國一致通過一項決議案，譴責朝鮮違反聯合國現有制裁規定，以發射火箭作爲僞裝來試射彈道導彈。安理會還警告說，如果平壤再進行發射或試驗，就將採取“重大行動”。
朝鮮立即做出反應，聲稱不再參與任何非核化會談。此外，朝鮮還誓言增強軍力和“核威懾力量”，很多人士將這一聲明解釋爲朝鮮再次進行核試驗的威脅。
聯合國對朝鮮的遠程導彈發射實施制裁後，平壤方面曾進行了兩次核試驗。最近的衛星照片顯示，朝鮮可能正在準備進行第3次核試驗。
