韓總統促美國和朝鮮爲非核化做出“勇敢決定”

South Korean President Moon Jae-in is calling for the United States and North Korea to "make bold decisions" to achieve the goal of "complete denuclearization" of the Korean peninsula.

During a meeting with his cabinet in Seoul Tuesday, President Moon said convincing the North to abandon its nuclear weapons program is "an issue that should fundamentally be resolved through negotiations" between Washington and Pyongyang.

U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un signed an agreement during their historic summit in Singapore in June for the North to dismantle its nuclear program.

But the two sides are at an impasse over the pace of North Korea ending its nuclear and missile development programs, prompting President Trump to cancel Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's trip to North Korea last month.

Moon told his cabinet that Seoul must serve as an intermediary between the United States and the North "until talks and me more active," adding that Trump and Kim have asked him to serve in this role.韓國總統文在寅呼籲美國和朝鮮爲實現朝鮮半島“徹底非核化”的目標“做出勇敢決定”。

文在寅總統星期二在首爾召開內閣會議時說，說服朝鮮放棄其核武器計劃基本是一個應該由華盛頓和平壤通過談判解決的問題。

美國總統特朗普和朝鮮領導人金正恩今年6月在新加坡舉行歷史性峯會時簽署了朝鮮廢除其核計劃的協議。

但是雙方在朝鮮終結核武器及導彈開發項目的速度上陷入僵局，導致特朗普總統上個月取消蓬佩奧國務卿訪問朝鮮的計劃。

文在寅總統對內閣成員說，韓國必須作爲美國和朝鮮的中間人，直到雙方的會談和溝通更爲順暢。他還說，特朗普總統和金正恩要求他發揮這個作用。
