特朗普和普京就“合作”解决朝鲜问题通话

US president Donald Trump and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin spoke via telephone on Thursday about topics including North Korea.

美国总统唐纳德•特朗普(Donald Trump)和俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔•普京(Vladimir Putin)周四就朝鲜问题等话题通话。

The two leaders discussed “working together to resolve the very dangerous situation in North Korea,” a brief note from the White House said.

白宫发出的简讯称，两位领导人讨论了“合作解决朝鲜非常危险的局势”。

Mr Trump also thanked Mr Putin for “acknowledging Americas [sic] strong economic performance in his annual press conference.”

特朗普还感谢普京“在他的年度新闻发布会上承认美国的强劲经济表现”

Earlier, Mr Putin expressed hope that the US might adjust its hawkish approach to the North Korea crisis.

早些时候，普京表达了关于美国可能调整对朝鲜危机的鹰派策略的希望。

That came after US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said this week that Washington was ready for direct contact with Pyongyang as long as North Korea did not conduct new missile tests in the run-up to or during talks.

在普京发言前，美国国务卿雷克斯•蒂勒森(Rex Tillerson)本周表示，只要朝鲜不在谈判之前或谈判期间进行新的导弹试验，美国已经做好与朝鲜直接接触的准备。

Mr Putin said Mr Tillerson’s remarks were “a good signal that there are certain shifts underway and that there is a certain recognition of reality both in the US leadership overall and in the State Department.

普京表示，蒂勒森的发言是“是一个很好的信号，表明正在发生一定的转变，美国领导层和美国国务院都对现实有了一定的认识。”
