English to Korean: RE: Policy Options for a New U.S. Approach to North Korea General field: Social Sciences Detailed field: Government / Politics
Source text - English For more than two decades, six administrations under four presidents have pursued the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. Despite international efforts, North Korea has conducted four nuclear tests in 2006, 2009, 2013 and 2016, demanding to be recognized as a nuclear weapon state. U.S. policy goals of deterrence from developing nuclear weapons and of prevention from proliferating nuclear program-related technology to other states have failed. Whether or not an H-bomb exploded over a mountain in northeastern North Korea on January 6th 2016, the country is definitely on the verge of entering the small club of nuclear states. Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un seems to have abandoned the idea of denuclearization and has declared the test to be “self defensive” against American imperialism. The DPRK’s latest nuclear test has been condemned by the international community and has generated renewed tensions in the region. South Korean President Park Geun-hye called for a stronger response by the international community, leading to UN Resolution 2287 of April 8th, 2016 which reaffirms the stance taken by the Security Council in Resolution 2094 and strengthens the sanctions implemented against DPRK. The North Korea Sanctions Enforcement Act voted by an overwhelming majority by the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate at the beginning of the year has similarly strained U.S. bilateral relations with North Korea.
All efforts toward a de-escalation of the security dilemma in the Korean Peninsula have been in a stalemate since the January 6th nuclear test. The Obama Administration, entrenching itself behind a policy of “strategic patience” since the failure of the Leap Day Agreement, has not engaged with the North Korean regime. All parties directly involved in the Korean Peninsula security dilemma – the U.S., the Republic of Korea (ROK), China, Japan, Russia and to some extent the U.N. – have stiffened their positions in response to Pyongyang’s demonstration of force.
Translation - Korean 미국은 20년이 넘는 세월동안 4명의 대통령이 집권하며, 6번이나 행정부가 바뀌면서까지도 줄곧 한반도 비핵화를 추구해 왔습니다. 국제사회의 반대에도 불구하고, 북한은 핵무기 보유국 지위를 인정받기 위해 2006년, 2009년, 2013년, 2016년 4번에 걸쳐 핵실험을 강행했습니다. 핵무기 개발을 억제하고 핵 프로그램 관련 기술이 다른 나라로 확산되는 것을 방지하려는 미국의 정책 목표는 실패했습니다. 2016년 1월 6일 북한 동북부지역의 산에서 수소폭탄이 폭발했든 아니든 간에, 북한은 확실히 단지 소규모 그룹만의 핵보유국에 곧 진입하기 직전입니다. 김정은 북한 최고 지도자는 핵실험을 강행함으로써 비핵화라는 개념을 포기하고, 이는 미국 제국주의에 대항하기 위한 “자체방어”라고 선언한 것으로 보입니다. 북한의 최근 핵실험은 국제 사회의 비난을 자초했고, 동북아시아 지역에 새로운 긴장상황을 불러 일으켰습니다. 한국의 박근혜 대통령은 2016년 4월 8일 유엔 안보리 결의안 2094호의 입장을 재확인하고, 대북 제재를 강화하는 유엔 결의안 2287호로 이어지는, 국제 사회의 더욱 강력한 대응을 촉구했습니다. 연초 미국 하원과 상원에서 압도적 득표로 통과된 대북 제재법 또한 미국과 북한 간의 양자 관계를 긴장시키고 있습니다.
한반도 안보의 심각한 상황을 누그러뜨리려는 모든 노력은 북한의 1월 6일 핵실험 이후로 교착 상태에 빠져있습니다. 윤달 합의(2012년 2월 29일) 실패 이후 '전략적 인내'정책을 굳건히 유지하고 있는 오바마 행정부는 북한 정권에 어떠한 관심도 두지 않고 있습니다. 한반도 안보 딜레마에 직접적인 관련 있는 모든 국가들 (즉, 미국, 한국, 중국, 일본, 러시아, 그리고 어느 정도 범위의 유엔)은 북한의 무력 시위에 대응하여 그들의 입장을 한층 강화했습니다.
