莫桑比克否认与朝鲜做生意

Mozambique is denying allegations that it continues to do business with North Korea in violation of U.N. sanctions.

A cnn report published this month found that North Korea has signed contracts worth millions of dollars in Mozambique, funneled the money through diplomatic channels and used profits from fishing vessels off the Mozambican coast to fund its nuclear program.

But Mozambique's deputy minister of foreign affairs and cooperation, Maria Manuela Lucas, denied that her government has made any agreements with North Korea that violate sanctions. She said Mozambique welcomes outside monitoring.

She also said her government is working with private Mozambican businesses to educate them about the sanctions and shut down illegal operations.

The report also alleges that North Korea is providing military training to elite Mozambican forces and offering technical support to the military. A previous U.N. report alleged that North Korea and Mozambique had a military partnership worth at least $6 million. North Korea used a shell company to sell weapons, including missiles, radar and air defense systems, according to the report.

莫桑比克否认它违反了联合国的制裁继续与朝鲜做生意。

美国有线电视资讯网（cnn）本月的报道说，朝鲜与莫桑比克签署了数以百万美元计的合同，通过外交渠道转送资金，并利用在莫桑比克沿海渔船的获利资助其核项目。

但是莫桑比克外交部副部长卢卡斯否认该国政府与朝鲜达成任何违反联合国制裁的协议。她说，莫桑比克欢迎外来监督。

她还说，政府正对莫桑比克的公司提供培训，帮助它们了解有关联合国制裁的信息，并查封制止了非法活动。

cnn的报道还说，朝鲜帮助训练莫桑比克的精锐部队，还向莫桑比克军队提供技术支持。联合国早先的一份报告称，朝鲜和莫桑比克的军事伙伴计划至少在600万美元的规模。报告说，朝鲜利用一个空壳公司出售武器，包括导弹、雷达和防空系统。
