10 10 On 9 October, North Korea announced that it had successfully conducted a nuclear test, which caused a great shock in the international community. The South Korean government issued a statement condemning North Korea's blatant nuclear test despite the general opposition of the international community, and clearly expressed its clear position of "resolute opposition". The United States, Japan, South Korea, Russia, Australia and other countries have also condemned North Korea's behavior. The United Nations Security Council held urgent consultations and adopted resolution 17 18 on 14, announcing severe sanctions against the DPRK, including an embargo on weapons and strategic materials, a freeze on financial assets and an embargo on luxury goods. Japan, Australia and other countries have also announced their own sanctions against the DPRK.

Faced with the strong reaction of the international community, the North Korean government issued a statement on June 5438+07, saying that nuclear testing is "an independent and legitimate right of sovereign countries" and an "active defensive measure" to safeguard national security. The statement said that the Security Council resolution was a "declaration of war" against the DPRK based on the American script, and the DPRK "strongly condemned and resolutely refused to accept" the resolution. Moreover, information from countries such as the United States, Japan and South Korea shows that North Korea is preparing to conduct a second or more nuclear test.

At present, the US Secretary of State is visiting Japan, South Korea, China, Russia and other countries. The central topic is to discuss how to implement the Security Council resolutions and find a solution to alleviate the current sharp rise in the North Korean nuclear crisis. The China government has always advocated the resumption of the Six-Party Talks as soon as possible and the settlement of the issue through diplomatic channels. The US government also expressed its willingness to return to the Six-Party Talks unconditionally. While conducting a nuclear test, the North Korean government also expressed its intention to resolve the nuclear crisis through diplomatic negotiations. Whether the North Korean government can actively respond to the six-party talks in the future has become the focus of attention.

It is true that the past rounds of six-party talks failed to achieve the goal of preventing North Korea from developing nuclear weapons, which led to a crisis of confidence in the prospects of the six-party talks. However, even in the current situation, countries including the United States still firmly believe that the DPRK nuclear crisis must be resolved through peaceful diplomatic means. In this sense, although the Six-Party Talks is not a perfect and effective way, it is still the only realistic way to solve the Korean nuclear crisis diplomatically accepted by all countries in the current situation.

Therefore, as long as the six parties can rebuild their confidence in the talks on the basis of summing up past experiences and lessons, and further improve, enrich and strengthen the six-party talks mechanism, new progress can be made on the road of diplomatic settlement of the Korean nuclear crisis. To this end, the United States and the DPRK should show flexibility and make more efforts to restart the six-party talks.

On May 18, 2008, the State Council issued an announcement: In order to express the deep condolences of the people of all ethnic groups in China to the victims of the Wenchuan earthquake in Sichuan, the State Council decided to designate May 19 to 2 1 day as a national mourning day. During this period, flags will be flown at half mast at national and overseas institutions. ...

Since China became a unified multi-ethnic country in 2229 BC (22 1), the national flag was lowered for ordinary people for the first time.

Since the establishment of People's Republic of China (PRC) (PRC) 1949 and China became a democratic republic for 59 years, the national flag was lowered for the first time for ordinary people.

Since 1990, the National Flag Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) stipulates that "when an unfortunate incident with particularly heavy casualties or a serious natural disaster causes heavy casualties, flags can be flown at half mast to mourn". Since 18, the national flag has been lowered for ordinary citizens for the first time.

Everyone's abnormal death is the tragedy of our whole nation. Everyone who died recorded the hardships of our nation. Forgetting those who die easily means forgetting history. A nation that forgets history easily has no future.

The national flag was finally lowered for ordinary citizens. Although it seems to be just an international general mourning ceremony, for us, it contains profound and heavy significance, but it makes us sigh that every progress of our nation is so difficult.

Cry loudly once, for our troubled nation. Let's get excited once, for our past and future!
