美國加強推動國際擴大對朝鮮的制裁大綱

A senior U.S. diplomat says Washington is pushing hard for tough international sanctions against North Korea following its successful long-range rocket launch last month.

Wednesday, Assistant Secretary of State Kurt Campbell told reporters in Seoul that he anticipates formal steps by the United Nations Security Council in the immediate future.

Campbell, the top U.S. envoy to Asia, also warned North Korea against taking any more "provocative" steps, amid speculation that Pyongyang is preparing to conduct a nuclear test.一位美國高層外交官說，在朝鮮上月成功試射遠程火箭後，華盛頓正在努力爭取對朝鮮實行更嚴厲的國際制裁。

星期三，美國助理國務卿坎貝爾在首爾對記者說，他預計聯合國安理會很快將就此採取正式措施。

坎貝爾是美國負責亞洲事務的首席特使。他還警告朝鮮不要採取更多“挑釁”行動，目前有關方面猜測平壤正準備進行一次核試驗。
