中国周一呼吁“所有相关方”寻求“政治解决”，以缓和紧张局势，维护朝鲜半岛的和平与稳定，背景是朝鲜最近进行的集束弹头试验。
China on Monday urged “all relevant parties” to pursue a “political settlement” to ease tensions and maintain peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula amid North Korea’s recent cluster warhead test.
“我们希望相关方正视朝鲜半岛问题的症结，坚持政治解决方向，努力缓和紧张局势，维护地区和平与稳定，”中国外交部发言人毛宁在北京对记者说。
“We hope the relevant parties will face up to the root cause of the Korean Peninsula issue, stick to the direction of political settlement, and make efforts to ease tensions and maintain peace and stability in the region,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning told reporters in Beijing.
针对关于平壤最新举动违反联合国安理会决议的提问，毛宁说：“中方注意到有关报道，以及朝鲜最近多次就美、韩、日军事活动表达立场的事实。”DPRK指朝鲜的正式名称朝鲜民主主义人民共和国，而ROK即大韩民国，是韩国的正式名称。
Responding to a question about Pyongyang’s latest move violating UN Security Council resolutions, Mao said: “China noted the relevant report and the fact that the DPRK has recently expressed its position on multiple occasions regarding the military activities by the US, the ROK and Japan.”DPRK refers to North Korea’s official name, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, while ROK, or the Republic of Korea, is South Korea’s official name.
朝鲜周六进行了一次战术弹道导弹集束弹头试验，以评估其战斗适用性和破坏力。
North Korea conducted a cluster warhead test for a tactical ballistic missile Saturday to assess its combat applicability and destructive power.
朝鲜弹道导弹系统研究院和弹头研究院表示，试验证实该国的“2型标准集束弹头”能够在其描述为“超高密度”的情况下，摧毁约12至13公顷（29至32英亩）的目标区域。导弹总局将该试验描述为旨在提高其武器系统破坏力的常规科学研究的一部分。
North Korea’s Ballistic Missile Systems Research Institute and Warhead Research Institute said the test confirmed that the country’s “Type-2 standard cluster warhead” could devastate a target area of about 12 to 13 hectares (29 to 32 acres) at what they described as an “ultra-high density.”The Missile Administration described the test as part of regular scientific research aimed at increasing the destructive power of its weapons systems.
