法新社╱F64許文柔 2008-07-16 01:20
(法新社新加坡十四日電)新加坡外交部今天表示,北韓打算下週與東南亞鄰國簽署互不侵犯條約。
北韓已知會東南亞國家協會主席國新加坡,平壤願意加入東南亞友好合作條約(TAC)。
新加坡外交部表示,簽署儀式將在七月二十四日東協區域論壇結束後舉行。
新國外交部說:「東協熱切的歡迎朝鮮民主主義人民共和國(北韓)的決定。東協相信東南亞友好合作條約有北韓的加入,有助於強化北韓及東協之間的關係,也有助於提升區域間的和平、安全和合作關係。」
此條約原本於一九七六年由東協各國簽訂,並從那時開始擴增新的成員。

North Korea to sign non-aggression treaty with ASEAN: Singapore
Mon Jul 14, 4:51 AM ET
SINGAPORE (AFP) - North Korea intends to sign a non-aggression treaty with its Southeast Asian neighbours next week, Singapore's foreign ministry said Monday.
It said Singapore, as the current chair of the 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), was notified by North Korea that it will accede to the Treaty of Amity and Cooperation in Southeast Asia (TAC).
The ceremony will take place after the ASEAN Regional Forum, Asia's main security gathering, on July 24, the Singapore foreign ministry said.
"ASEAN warmly welcomes the DPRK's decision," it said, using the formal initials of the reclusive communist state.
"ASEAN believes that the DPRK's accession to the TAC will strengthen relations between ASEAN and the DPRK, and also help promote peace, security and cooperation in the region."
The treaty, originally signed by ASEAN members in 1976, has since expanded to include other nations.
