The test was North Korea’s fifth and, along with recent ballistic missile launches, has been widely criticized as destabilizing to regional and international security.
这是朝鲜第五次进行核试验,连同最近的弹道导弹发射受到广泛批评,被视为危害区域和国际社会安全的行为。
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said the U.S. remains deeply committed to its mutual defense obligations with Japan and South Korea and said that the North Korean test earlier this month would not go unanswered.
美国国务卿约翰·克里表示,美国仍然坚持与日本和韩国的共同防御义务,不会对朝鲜本月早些时候的核试验置之不理。
