1. 냉랭한 미북 관계

기사요약: 미북관계가 향상될 조짐을 보이지 않고 있다. 미국은 북한 비핵화 압박을 강화하고 있고, 북한은 미국의 대북 “적대시” 정책 때문에 상호 적대감이 지속되고 있다고 책임을 전가하고 있다. 미중 정상회담에서 미국이 중국에게 북한에 대한 압박을 증가하라고 요청할 것으로 예상되면서 미북관계가 더 악화될 것으로 전망된다.

Yonsei professors campaign against state history textbook

[1]Professors at Yonsei University on Tuesday joined a nationwide move against the government’s attempt to reinstate state-published history textbooks for secondary education.

*exclusive: 독점적인, 배타적인

*certify: 증명하다

*hit the market: 시장에 나오다, 판매되다

*viewpoint: 의견

*academic circles: 학계

*guideline: 지침

*impose: 부과하다 (imposition: 부가, 강제)
