six-party talks aimed at persuading the reclusive communist nation to abandon
its nuclear arms program.

and South Korea said it would respond "sternly" to a move that experts said
raised fears of nuclear terrorism and a regional arms race.
中國，北韓緊密的盟友，以「輕蔑」譴責了北韓的核試，南韓說將會「嚴肅」地回應
一個（具專家說法）可能會喚起核武恐怖攻擊的恐懼以及區域性軍備競賽的舉動。

way," without offering specifics.

Ramifications of North Korea's move
北韓動作的效應
When North Korea warned last week that it intended to conduct a nuclear test,
international analysts said it could unleash a regional arms race and give a
virtual green light to Iran, which the United States suspects wants to
develop nuclear weapons. Experts also fear North Korea may allow terrorists
such as al Qaeda access to its nuclear technology.
當北韓上個星期警告說它企圖進行核武測試時，國際分析師說該舉動可能會啟動區域性
的軍備競賽，並且給伊朗這美國認為會發展核武的國家樂觀的訊號。
"This immediately affects the calculations of South Korea, Taiwan, Japan, all
of whom might decide that they need to have their own independent nuclear
arsenal as well," said international security analyst Joseph Cirincione of
the Center for American Progress. "If North Korea gets away with this, Iran
will be encouraged to go forward."
「這立即影響南韓、臺灣、日本等可能會決定需要自己獨立的核子武力的算盤，」
美國進步中心的國際安全分析師Joseph Cirincione說道。「如果讓北韓逃過一劫，
就會鼓勵伊朗跟進。」
Bush said North Korea "remains one of the world's leading proliferators of
missile technology, including transfers to Iran and Syria."
布希說北韓「是全世界殘留的飛彈科技散播者，包括輸送給伊朗以及敘利亞等地。」
If confirmed, the test would be the first of its kind since Pakistan
detonated an underground nuclear weapon in May 1998, said Hans Kristensen of
the Federation of American Scientists in Washington. North Korea would be the
eighth nation to conduct a successful test openly, he said. (Nuclear nations)
若經證實，這次核試將會是自1998年五月巴基斯坦於地下測試核子武器後的第一樁，
華盛頓美國科學家聯合會的Hans Kristensen說。北韓會是第八個成功並公開進行核
子武力測試的國家，他說。
North Korea recently has test-fired seven missiles, including a long-range
ballistic missile in July, but it's unknown whether Pyongyang possesses the
high-technology expertise to construct a nuclear device small enough for a
missile delivery system. (Missile range map)
北韓最近試發了七枚飛彈，包括七月的一枚長程戰略飛彈，但平壤是否擁有高科技能力
來建造能由飛彈載具承載的核子設備，仍然不明。
