一位联合国安理会外交官上周三告诉记者，中国和美国已经就一项旨在制裁朝鲜的新联合国安理会决议草案达成一致意见。该决议将成为对朝鲜迄今为止最严厉的制裁。
The United States and China have reached an agreement on a new U.N. Security Council draft resolution aimed at punishing North Korea, a Security Council diplomat told CNN on Wednesday. The resolution is going to be described as the toughest yet on Pyongyang.
该外交官透露，草案内容还未公布，但是文件很有可能在一两天内由全体安理会成员投票决定，其他国家都有一次机会权衡其措辞。
The text of the draft is not yet available but the document will likely be voted in by the full Security Council "in a couple of days," once other nations have an opportunity to weigh in on the language, according to the diplomat.
这名外交官说道：“中美之间有相当多的意见冲突，但是两国之间还是达成了一项共识。”
"There were a significant number of blockage points between the (United States and China) ... but there is an agreement between those two countries," the diplomat said.
一月份，朝鲜宣布其第四次核试验中的氢弹测试成功。
In January, Pyongyang claimed to have successfully tested a hydrogen bomb in its fourth nuclear test.
起初，美国官员对此持怀疑态度，但在经过评估后，他们认为或许有部分失败氢弹关联部件的测试。之后的2月7日，朝鲜称其通过远程运载火箭光明星号成功发射了一颗人造地球卫星。氢弹试验和此次卫星发射都是对国际制裁的蔑视。
U.S. officials were initially skeptical of the claim, but later assessed that there may have been a partial, failed test of some type of components associated with a hydrogen bomb. Then on February 7, Pyongyang said it had successfully launched an Earth satellite into orbit via the long-range Kwangmyongsong carrier rocket. Both the test and the launch were carried out in defiance of international sanctions.
同样在周三，美国国家安全顾问苏珊·赖斯和中国外长王毅于白宫会面。
Also Wednesday, National Security Adviser Susan Rice met with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi at the White House.
美国国安会发言人内德·普莱斯发表的声明表示，两国“就对朝鲜的挑衅行为须有强有力且团结一致的国际回应达成共识，其中包括通过一项比先前更严厉的联合国安理会协议。两国都表示，他们将不会接受朝鲜作为核武器国家的存在。”
They agreed "on the importance of a strong and united international response to North Korea’s provocations, including through a U.N. Security Council Resolution that goes beyond previous resolutions," read a statement from National Security Council spokesman Ned Price. "They agreed that they will not accept North Korea as a nuclear weapons state."
