美國朝鮮北京核談判進入加時期

Talks between the top nuclear negotiators from the U.S. and North Korea went into "overtime" Thursday after a day of what were described as "substantive and serious" discussions. U.S. negotiator Glyn Davies told reporters in Beijing the sides were in "mid-negotiations" and had decided to have dinner together and then pick up the talks again on Friday. He said the teams had covered a "number of issues" but declined to go into detail about any sticking points such as the issue of nuclear enrichment.

星期四美國和朝鮮高級核談判代表的會談進入加時期。此前雙方用了一整天時間進行了被形容爲“實質性的嚴肅討論”。美國談判代表戴維斯在北京對記者說，雙方正在談判中，已經決定共進晚餐，然後在星期五繼續會談。他說，雙方談判涉及了一些問題，但是他不願提供有關棘手問題的細節，比如濃縮核材料問題。

This is the third round of meetings between the countries since July, but the first since North Korea's new leader, Kim Jong Un, succeeded his father late last year. Davies and his North Korean counterpart, Kim Kye-gwan, met with aides for more than two hours Thursday morning at North Korea's embassy and then resumed the talks in the afternoon at the U.S. Embassy.

這是去年七月以來美、朝間的第三輪談判。也是金正恩在去年底繼承父親金正日權力以來第一次美、朝會談。戴維斯跟朝鮮首席談判代表金桂冠舉行了會談。兩人的助手們也出席了會談。星期四上午會談持續了兩個多小時，會談地點是朝鮮駐北京使館。當天下午，雙方又在美國使館繼續會談。
