(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

The US has tabled a UN resolution for sanctions that would target North Korea's diplomats¹ and cash transfers.

美国提交了一份联合国决议，意在制裁朝鲜的外交官和现金调拨。

Washington's UN ambassador Susan Rice said they would be "some of the toughest sanctions" the UN had imposed.

Li Baodong, China's UN envoy², said a "strong signal" had to be sent following North Korea's third and most powerful nuclear test last month.

Earlier, Pyongyang warned it would scrap³ a 60-year Korean ceasefire.

North Korea's military command said it would end the truce⁴ with South Korea on 11 March because of the threat of sanctions and the current military exercises taking place in South Korea.

"We aim to launch surgical⁵ strikes at any time and any target without being bounded by the armistice⁶（停战） accord（符合，一致） and advance our long-cherished wish for national unification," the statement said.

The Korean War ended with an armistice in 1953 - not a peace treaty - meaning the peninsula is still technically⁷ at war.
