中国向巴基斯坦提供核武器是公开的秘密，但是具体内幕可能很多人都不太了解。无意中翻到几年前的一篇文章，披露了此事的一些细节，发出来给大家看看。

NEW DELHI: China supplied Pakistan with enough weapons-grade uranium for two atomic bombs in 1982 and continued to help Islamabad out with its nuclear programme, according to a report in The Washington Post.

新德里：根据《华盛顿邮报》报道，1982年，中国向巴基斯坦提供了足可制造两颗原子弹的武器级铀，并继续帮助伊斯兰堡制定其核计划。

Outing China as a nuclear proliferator, the report, which sourced the narrative from accounts written by disgraced Pakistani nuclear scientist Abdul Qadeer Khan, said that a Pakistani military C-130 left the western Chinese city of Urumqi with the "highly unusual cargo" in 1982.

这篇报道揭露了中国的核武器扩散者身份，它引用了被解职的巴基斯坦核科学家阿卜杜尔·卡德尔·可汗写入证言的叙述，声称在1982年，一架巴基斯坦军方的C-130运输机携带“极不寻常的货物”，离开了中国西部城市乌鲁木齐。

That China supplied Pakistan with nuclear know-how has always been suspected, but this is the first time that a detailed account of how it took place has come out and that too straight from the accounts of A Q Khan. The uranium transfer was reportedly part of a secret nuclear deal approved years earlier by Mao Zedong and Prime Minister Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto in the 1976, four years after India tested its first nuclear weapon.

人们一直怀疑中国向巴基斯坦提供核武器技术，但是，如此直接地来自可汗的证言，是第一次详细地记述了此事发生的细节。据报道，铀原料的转让，是数年前被批准的一项秘密核交易的一部分，此项交易是由毛泽东和巴基斯坦总理佐勒菲卡尔·阿里·布托在1976年批准的，就在印度进行首次核武器试验的四年后。

But it was realised only during the time of Zia ul-Haq, who after taking power and hanging Bhutto was struggling under rumours of a pre-emptive strike by India. So Khan and a Pakistani general were sent to Beijing "to borrow enough bomb-grade uranium for a few weapons. " Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping gave the approval and Khan and his team flew aboard a Pakistani C-130 to Urumqi where Khan says they enjoyed barbecued lamb while waiting for the Chinese military to pack the small uranium bricks into lead-lined boxes to be flown to Islamabad.

但是，这项交易的实现，是在齐亚·哈克掌权时期，他在取得权力并绞死了布托以后，由于印度将发动“先发制人”攻击的传言而焦头烂额。因此，可汗和一名巴基斯坦将军被送往北京，“去借来可以制造几件武器的足够的武器级铀”。中国领导人邓小平给了他们批复，可汗与他的小组乘坐一架巴基斯坦C-130飞往乌鲁木齐。可汗说，在那里，等待中国军方把小号铀砖放入盒子的过程中，他们吃到了烤羊肉。这些盒子内衬铅封，它们将被空运到伊斯兰堡。

"Upon my personal request, the Chinese Minister . . . had gifted us 50 kg [kilograms] of weapon-grade enriched uranium, enough for two weapons," Khan wrote in an 11-page narrative of the Pakistani bomb programme that he prepared after his January 2004 detention. "The Chinese gave us drawings of the nuclear weapon, gave us kg50 enriched uranium," he said in a separate account sent to his wife several months earlier. China in effect supplied a "virtual do-it-yourself kit that significantly speeded Pakistan's bomb effort."

“当我个人说出请求时，中国的公使......赐给了我们50千克武器级浓缩铀，足够制造两颗核弹。”可汗在有关巴基斯坦核计划的叙述中写道。这份叙述共有11页，是他于2004年1月被拘留后准备的。“中国人给了我们核武器图纸，给了我们50公斤浓缩铀。”他在数月前交给他妻子的一份独立证言中说。中国实际上提供了“实质上的自己动手工具包，它显著地加快了巴基斯坦核计划的进程。”

Even before that, China sent Pakistan 15 tons of uranium hexafluoride (UF6), a feedstock for Pakistan's centrifuges, whose designs Khan has stolen. But it was also a give and take with Khan sharing Europe's best centrifuge technology in the 1980s with the Chinese in an effort to help China's uranium-enrichment programme. "Chinese experts started coming regularly to learn the whole technology" from Pakistan and Pakistani experts were dispatched to Hanzhong in central China, where they helped "put up a centrifuge plant," Khan said in an account he gave to his wife Henny.

甚至在此之前，中国还给了巴基斯坦15吨六氟化铀，这是巴基斯坦离心机的给料。可汗盗取了离心机的设计。但是，这也是可汗在1980年代与中国分享了欧洲最好的离心机技术、以帮助促进中国铀浓缩计划所换来的相互让步。“中国专家开始定期前来”，从巴基斯坦“学习全套的技术”。巴基斯坦专家也被派往中国中部的汉中，他们在那里协助“建立一座离心机厂。”可汗在交给妻子亨尼的证言中说。

Calling it "an exceptional, deliberate act of proliferation by a nuclear power" the report said that the US knew about the illegal transfer and had once confronted the Chinese who had denied it. The Washington Post sourced the accounts from British journalist Simon Henderson who recently went public with A.Q. Khan's letters.

报道称之为“由核大国发起的非同寻常而深思熟虑的核扩散行为”，并称美国知道这次非法的转让，并曾经与否认此事的中国针锋相对。《华盛顿邮报》引用了英国记者西蒙·亨德森的证言，他最近曾经让可汗的信件曝光。

This revelation comes ahead of US President Barack Obama's visit to China and at a time when Mr Obama is stepping up efforts to strengthen the non-proliferation network.

此事的揭露，发生在美国总统奥巴马访华之前，并且正好出现在奥巴马加紧努力、强化防扩散网络的时候。

Khan's account also show that Beijing violated its international obligations and could be an important source for the A Q Khan proliferation network which supplied nuclear knowhow to countries like Iran.

可汗的证言还显示，北京违反其国际义务，并且很可能是可汗向伊朗这样的国家提供核技术的核扩散网络的重要来源。
