Similarly, threatening North Korea with isolation, the hardy perennial of diplomatic pressuring, does not work, because isolation is exactly what the North Koreans want. What the international community needs to do is to come together on a program of action aimed at producing a result.
同样，用孤立来胁迫长期外交压力下惯于吃苦的朝鲜也不起任何作用，因为孤立恰恰符合北朝鲜的希望。国际社会需要达成统一的行动纲领并以结果为导向。
