双语新闻：金正恩晋升元帅 Kim Jong Un Named Marshal of North Korea

18 July, 2012

朝鲜说，朝鲜领导人金正恩已晋升为人民军元帅,正式成为朝鲜最高的军事领导人。

星期三，朝鲜国家媒体在一条特别简讯中报道了这个消息。

在朝鲜国家媒体宣布这一消息之前，朝鲜军方领导层本星期进行了改组，其中包括人民军总参谋长李英浩被免职。朝鲜说，李英浩因患病被免去所有职务。

金正恩的父亲金正日也拥有元帅军衔。金正日于去年12月去世。

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has been awarded the title of marshal, formally becoming the country's top military leader.

State media announced the move in a brief special message Wednesday.

It comes after a shakeup of the military's leadership this week, which included the departure of Ri Yong Ho, North Korea's top military figure . North Korea said Ri had been removed from all of his posts because of illness.

Marshal is the same title held by Kim Jong Un's late father, Kim Jong Il, who died in December.
