據朝中社22日報道，朝鮮21日舉行新建的5000噸級驅逐艦下水儀式期間發生“重大事故”。

A "serious accident" occurred when the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) launched a newly-built 5,000-tonnage destroyer on Wednesday, the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported Thursday.

朝鮮勞動黨總書記、國務委員長金正恩在觀摩下水儀式時提出嚴厲指責，稱這是“既不可有、又不可接受的重大事故、犯罪行為”。

報道說，驅逐艦“下水過程中，因指揮不熟、操作不慎，沒能保障底盤移動平行度。結果，船尾部分的下水滑板先脫離擱淺，部分區段船底被破孔導致船艦失衡，船首部分未被脫離船臺”。

金正恩說，這起事故“完全由做事不慎、不負責任和不科學的經驗主義所造成”，損害了朝鮮的尊嚴與自尊心。事故責任完全在于勞動黨中央委員會軍需工業部、中央船舶設計研究所等相關單位和清津造船廠有關人員。

During the launching ceremony at the Chongjin Shipyard, the launch slide of the stern has departed first and stranded as the flatcar failed to move in parallel, and some sections of the warship's bottom crushed to destroy the balance of the warship and the bow could not leave the shipway, said the report, attributing the accident to "the inexperienced command and operational carelessness."

Kim Jong-un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) and president of the State Affairs of the DPRK, made a stern assessment after he watched the whole course of the accident, calling it "a serious accident and criminal act caused by absolute carelessness, irresponsibility and unscientific empiricism which is out of the bounds of possibility and could not be tolerated."

金正恩說，將在下月召開的勞動黨中央委員會全會上對這一不負責任的嚴重錯誤進行立案審查。

金正恩強調：“盡快修復驅逐艦是直接關乎國家權威的政治問題，而非單純的業務性問題。”他要求，在下月全會召開前“無條件”完成修復工作。

The accident "brought the dignity and self-respect of our state to a collapse in a moment," Kim was quoted as saying, adding the irresponsible errors of the relevant officials would have to be dealt with at the plenary meeting of the WPK Central Committee to be convened next month.

An immediate restoration of the destroyer, he said, is "not merely a practical issue, but a political issue directly related to the authority of the state" and should be completed unconditionally before the June Plenary Meeting of the Party Central Committee.

報道還說，金正恩就事故調查組工作作了重要指示。
