預計金正恩5月訪問俄羅斯
North Korea's reclusive leader Kim Jong Un looks set to travel to Russia in May for his first foreign visit since succeeding his late father in office in 2011.
The South Korean news service Yonhap confirmed Wednesday Mr. Kim is among the North Korean delegation accepting an invitation to ceremonies marking the 70th anniversary of the Soviet victory over Germany in World War II.
韓聯社星期三證實，朝鮮接受邀請，準備派團參加蘇聯在二戰中戰勝德國70周年紀念活動，而金正恩將是朝鮮代表團成員。Yonhap quoted the Russian government as saying "about 20 state leaders have confirmed their attendance, and the North Korean leader is among them."
韓聯社援引俄羅斯政府的話說，“大約20位國家領導人已確定出席，朝鮮領導人也在其中。”
If Mr. Kim does attend, it will be his first foreign visit since taking office. But Pyongyang could instead send Kim Yong Nam, North Korea's nominal head of state.
如果金正恩參加紀念活動，這將是他自掌權以來首次出國出訪。但平壤也可能派朝鮮名義上的國家元首金永南前往俄羅斯。China was also a likely candidate for Kim Jong Un's first official foreign visit, but relations with North Korea's strongest ally have grown more tense since he took over from his father Kim Jong Il.
中國也可能是金正恩首次正式出訪的國家，但自金正恩從去世的父親手中接掌權力以來，朝鮮與這個最強有力的盟友之間的關係趨於緊張。Both China and Russia have signed United Nations agreements punishing North Korea for continuing its nuclear arms development, but China has taken the stronger stance.
中國和俄羅斯都簽署了聯合國協議，就朝鮮繼續發展核武器對其進行懲罰，但中國採取了更強硬的立場。Sanctions drafted jointly by the United States and China were approved by the Security Council in March 2013. Russia is a permanent member of the Security Council.
2013年3月，美國和中國聯合起草的制裁方案在安理會獲得通過。俄羅斯是安理會常任理事國。
