Need new translators?
June 18, 2005 ( politics )
One wonders if perhaps English/Korean translators are just playing with us all:
"[Vice-Foreign Minister, Kim Gye-gwan] said North Korea had enough atomic bombs to protect itself against attack by the US and was building more. "
vs
"Bush has meanwhile said Pyongyang must show it is ready to give up its nuclear weapons programme in a "serious and substantive" way."
Or maybe the Korean word for "give up" is easily mistakable for "build up" ?
