时间:2019-02-21 作者:英语课 分类:2016CRI中国国际广播电台
North Korea's most recent satellite launch was seen by Washington as cover for the development of ballistic missile technology that could be used to deliver a nuclear weapon.
On Wednesday, US ally Japan reacted to the launch, with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe announcing sanctions on Pyongyang.
"The government has decided 1 to impose stern sanctions on North Korea. We will cooperate closely with the international community in order to resolve the abductions, nuclear and missile issues."
Apart from the nuclear issue, North Korea's alleged 2 abductions of Japanese nationals in the 1970s have been another major sticking point straining bilateral 3 relations.
Under the sanctions announced Wednesday, foreign nuclear technology scientists living in Japan who have traveled to North Korea will not be re-admitted to Japan.
Japan's Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga elaborates on the latest move.
"First of all, we have taken measures to control the movement of people by expanding the ban to include a wider range of people. This includes the re-entry of foreign residents who are involved in nuclear and missile technology who have travelled to North Korea."
Suga says the sanctions will also involve money transfers and ships traveling from North Korea.
"We are reducing the lower limit of the remittance 4 notification for amounts of money taken out of the country as a means of payment. As a rule we are banning remittances 5 to North Korea. We are also banning the entry of all North Korea-registered ships including those for humanitarian 6 aid purposes, we are also banning the entry of ships from third countries which have been to North Korea. "
Suga added Japan will freeze the assets of more groups and individuals that are connected to North Korea.
Meanwhile, South Korea has halted work at the joint 7 Kaesong Industrial Complex with North Korea, for the first time in a decade.
This comes after South Korea's parliament passed a resolution on the launch.
The resolution urges North Korea to stop its provocations 8 and become a responsible member of the international community.
It also calls on the South Korean government to work with the U.N. Security Council to develop strong sanctions against North Korea.
The UN has also vowed 9 to "adopt expeditiously 10 a new Security Council resolution" at an emergency meeting.
