第一篇:2015外交部部长王毅答记者问中英文
2015年3月8日,十二届全国人大三次会议在两会新闻中心举行记者会,邀请外交部长王毅就中国外交政策和对外关系回答中外记者提问。
On 8 March 2015, the Third Session of the Twelfth National People's Congress held a press conference at the Press Center of the Two Sessions.Foreign Minister Wang Yi was invited to answer questions from Chinese and foreign media about China's foreign policy and external relations.中华人民共和国外交部部长 王毅:记者朋友们,大家上午好。
今天是三八妇女节,首先我要向女记者们以及所有关心和支持中国外交的女同胞们致以诚挚的祝福。
Wang Yi: Friends from the press, good morning.Today is the International Women's Day.At the outset, I would like to extend sincere greetings to the female journalists and all Chinese women who show understanding of and support for China's diplomacy.记得去年也是今天,马航370航班失联。一年过去了,飞机还没有找到,但搜寻仍将继续。对于马航370航班的乘客家属,今天是艰难的一天,我们的心和大家在一起。马航已经启动了理赔的工作,我们愿意为每一位家属提供一切需要的服务,帮助大家维护好正当和合法的权益。现在我愿回答大家的问题。
On this day a year ago, the MH370 flight went missing.A year has passed, and the plane has not been located, but the search effort will continue.Today must be a tough day for the next of kin of those on board MH370.Our hearts are with you.Malaysia Airlines has started its compensation work.We will provide all needed service to every next of kin and help you uphold your legitimate and lawful rights and interests.With these words, I would like to open the floor to questions.人民日报记者:王外长您好,很高兴我第一个提问。您曾经说过2014年是中国外交全面推进的丰收之年,请问这个丰收之年具体体现在哪些方面?另外,2015年的中国外交有哪些值得期待的看点和关键词?谢谢。
People's Daily: Mr.Minister, you once said that 2014 was a year of harvest and all-round progress in China's diplomacy.Could you elaborate on that? And what can we expect from China's diplomacy in 2015? What are the keywords we need to watch?
王毅:2014年的中国外交确实是丰收之年,同时也是开拓之年、创新之年。在以习近平同志为核心的党中央领导下,我们成功举办上海亚信峰会和北京APEC两大主场外交,在历史上留下了深刻的中国印记。我们积极参与全球热点问题的解决,在国际和地区事务当中发挥了中国作用。
Wang Yi: Indeed, 2014 was a year of harvest for China's diplomacy.It was also a year of forging ahead and breaking new ground.Under the leadership of the CPC Central Committee headed by General Secretary Xi Jinping, we successfully hosted the CICA Summit in Shanghai and the APEC meeting in Beijing, and left a deep imprint of our own.We took an active part in the resolution of global hot-spot issues, and played China's role in international and regional affairs.我们大力拓展对外合作,“一带一路”倡议得到了广泛的响应。特别值得一提的是,我们着眼于构建以合作共赢为核心的新型国际关系,正在走出一条结伴而不结盟的对外交往新路。
We made energetic efforts to expand external cooperation, and our initiative to establish a Silk Road Economic Belt and a 21st Century Maritime Silk Road won support from a lot of countries.It is particularly worth mentioning that focusing on building a new type of international relations featuring win-win cooperation, we are taking a new path of external relations characterized by partnership rather than alliance.到去年年底,我们已经同70多个国家和诸多的地区组织建立了不同形式的伙伴关系,基本形成覆盖全球的伙伴关系网络。中国的“朋友圈”越来越大,我们的好朋友、好伙伴越来越多。
By the end of last year, we had established different forms of partnerships with over 70 countries and a number of regional organizations, and basically established a global network of partnerships.One can say that China's circle of friends and partners has widened and will continue to expand.2015年,我们将保持进取势头,拓展全方位外交,在坚定维护国家利益的同时,不断扩大与世界各国的共同利益。
In 2015, we will continue to forge ahead and expand all-round diplomacy.While steadfastly safeguarding our national interests, we will work to expand the common interests we have with other countries in the world.2015年中国外交的关键词是“一个重点、两条主线”。一个重点就是全面推进“一带一路”。我们将进一步加强与各国的政策沟通,不断扩大彼此利益契合点。我们会探讨互利合作的有效途径,重点推动互联互通基础设施、陆上经济走廊、海上合作支点的建设。我们还愿意促进人文交流合作,加快自贸谈判进程。
The keywords for China's diplomacy in 2015 will be “one focus” and “two main themes”.Our key focus in 2015 will be making all-round progress in the “Belt and Road” initiative.We will further enhance policy communication with other countries, expand the convergence of our shared interests, and explore effective avenues of win-win cooperation.The emphasis will be on promoting infrastructural connectivity, and building overland economic corridors and pillars of maritime cooperation.We will also promote people-to-people and cultural exchanges and cooperation, and speed up relevant FTA negotiations.我们相信,“一带一路”必将更加深入人心,取得更多的早期收获,助力亚欧大陆实现整体振兴。两条主线就是要做好和平与发展这两篇大文章。我们将同国际社会一道,办好世界反法西斯战争胜利70周年纪念活动,以史为鉴,开辟未来,使中国成为维护和平的强大力量。
We are confident that the “Belt and Road” initiative will win even more support and deliver even more “early harvests”, so as to catalyze the revitalization of the Eurasian continent as a whole.In 2015, we will do a lot under the two themes of peace and development.We will work with the international community to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the end of the world's anti-Fascist war, draw lessons from history, look to the future, and make China a staunch force for peace.我们还将以纪念联合国成立70周年为契机,积极参与联合国发展峰会和国际气候变化合作,推动制定符合广大发展中国家利益的2015后发展议程和新的应对气候变化安排,发挥中国的建设性作用。谢谢!
The 70th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations will be a good opportunity for us to take an active part in the UN's development summit and international cooperation on climate change.We will play a constructive role in helping to secure a post-2015 development agenda and a new international regime for addressing climate change that are in the interests of developing countries.北京新京报记者:我们注意到,近年来中国公民出境人数不断攀升,而今年春节又掀起一股出国旅游热潮。请问,在便利公民出行和保护他们在海外正当权益方面今年外交部会有怎样的计划或者举措?谢谢。
Beijing News: In recent years, more and more Chinese citizens have made outbound visits, and we see a good example of that during the just passed Chinese New Year.What will the Chinese Foreign Ministry do to facilitate the outbound visits of Chinese citizens and protect their legitimate rights and interests overseas?
王毅:去年,中国公民出境首次突破了1亿人次,成为海外最大的流动群体。此外,我们还有2万多家中国企业,还有数百万中国同胞生活和工作在世界各地。所以说海外维权任务之重前所未有,责任之大也前所未有。我们始终把每一位同胞的安危冷暖放在心头,千方百计地推进海外民生工程。
Wang Yi: Last year, for the first time, Chinese citizens made over 100 million visits abroad, making them the largest floating population in the world.There are also more than 20,000 Chinese enterprises which have established a presence abroad, and millions of our compatriots are living and working in different parts of the world.The task and responsibility of protecting their rights is heavier than ever.We are always concerned with the safety and wellbeing of every one of our compatriots, and we will do everything in our power to protect and assist them.去年外交部设立了全球领事保护应急呼叫中心12308热线,为海外游子与祖国亲人之间架起了一条全天候、零时差、无障碍的绿色通道,不管同胞们身处海外哪个角落,遇到什么困难,只要拨通这个电话,就能在第一时间得到外交部和驻外使领馆的帮助。12308开通仅仅半年,我们就接到了3万多通电话,很多同胞表示,有了这条热线,在国外更踏实了,感觉祖国随时就在身边。我们希望更多同胞知道这条热线,用好这条热线,有困难,请拨12308。
Last year, the Chinese Foreign Ministry's Global Emergency Call Center for Consular Protection set up the 12308 hotline.The hotline is a 24/7, all-time-zone channel of communication between overseas Chinese nationals and their loved ones back in China.Now no matter which part of the world you are in, if you run into trouble, you can dial this number and get prompt assistance from the Foreign Ministry and our diplomatic and consular missions abroad.In the half year since the launch of the hotline, we have received over 30,000 phone calls.Many of our compatriots say that this hotline is very reassuring for them, because they can feel that the motherland is always by their side.We hope more of our compatriots can know about this hotline and make good use of it.When in trouble, please call 12308.我们在签证便利化方面也取得了重要的进展。去年一年,我们又同24个国家签署了互免或者简化签证手续的协议,数量是前4年的总和。中国公民免签或者落地签的目的地已经达到了50多个国家和地区。大家可能对去年中美的签证互换安排印象最为深刻,也就是说两国公民办妥签证之后,5到10年之内,只要拿着护照,买张机票,就可以便捷地往来于太平洋两岸。我还要告诉大家的是,中国和加拿大刚刚就互发有效期最长为10年的签证达成了一致,明天就将实施。
In 2014, we also made important progress in visa facilitation.We signed visa exemption or simplification agreements with 24 countries, equal to the total of the previous four years.And nowadays, Chinese citizens can visit more than 50 countries and territories without a visa or by obtaining a visa upon arrival.You may remember the reciprocal visa arrangement which China and the United States announced last year.It means that if a Chinese or American person has a visa, then for up to five or even 10 years, he or she can travel easily between the two shores of the Pacific Ocean with just a passport and an air ticket.And let me tell you that China and Canada have just reached agreement on issuing visas to each other's citizens with a validity period of up to 10 years.This agreement will go into effect tomorrow.海外民生工程只有进行时,而没有完成时。“中国脚步”走到哪里,“中国保护”就会跟到哪里。我们会继续努力,进一步提高中国护照的“含金量”,让同胞们更直接地感受到作为中国人的尊严。我们会为大家出国创造更便利的条件,大家可以随时来一场“说走就走的旅行”,并且走得更顺利、更安全、更舒心。
The effort to protect and assist Chinese nationals overseas is always a work in progress;it is never a mission accomplished.Wherever there is Chinese footprint, consular service must step up and cover that place.We will continue to work hard to improve the value of Chinese passports, so that our compatriots can more directly feel the dignity of being a Chinese and find it easier to travel abroad.We hope more and more of our compatriots can go abroad any time they wish and they can have smooth, safe and worry-free travels.新加坡《联合早报》记者:中方如何看待有人将“一带一路”比作“马歇尔计划”,或者称中方借拉紧周边经济纽带以谋求地缘政治和其他利益?
Lianhe Zaobao: Some people have compared China's “Belt and Road” initiative to the Marshall Plan and say that China is tightening its economic bond with neighboring countries to pursue geopolitical, military and security interests.What is your comment?
王毅:“一带一路”比“马歇尔计划”既古老得多,又年轻得多,两者不可同日而语。Wang Yi: China's “Belt and Road” initiative is both much older and much younger than the Marshall Plan.Comparing one to the other would be like comparing apples and oranges.说古老,是因为“一带一路”传承着具有两千多年历史的古代丝绸之路精神,我们要把这条各国人民友好交往、互通有无的路走下去,并且让它焕发新的时代光芒。The “Belt and Road” initiative is older because it embodies the spirit of the ancient Silk Road, which has a history of over 2,000 years and was used by the peoples of many countries for friendly exchange and commerce.We must renew that spirit and bring it up to date.说年轻,是因为“一带一路”诞生于全球化时代,是开放合作的产物,不是地缘政治的工具,更不能用过时的冷战思维去看待。
The “Belt and Road” initiative is younger because it is born in the era of globalization.It is a product of inclusive cooperation, not a tool of geopolitics, and must not be viewed with the outdated Cold War mentality.在推进“一带一路”过程中,我们将坚持奉行“共商、共建、共享”原则,坚持平等协商,充分尊重各国的自主选择。我们将注重照顾各方舒适度,注重保持透明和开放,注重与各国发展战略的相互对接,注重与现有地区合作机制相辅相成。“一带一路”的理念是共同发展,目标是合作共赢。它不是中方一家的“独奏曲”,而是各国共同参与的“交响乐”。
In pursuing this initiative, we will act according to the principle of wide consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits.We will carry out equal-footed consultation and respect the independent choice of other countries.We will be sensitive to the comfort level of other parties, ensure transparency and openness, align the initiative with the development strategies of other participants, and create synergy with the existing regional cooperation mechanisms.The vision of this initiative is common development and the goal is win-win progress through cooperation.If I may use a musical metaphor, it is not China's solo, but a symphony performed by all relevant countries.今日俄罗斯通讯社记者:在西方对俄罗斯实施制裁、卢布大幅贬值背景下,中国将如何与俄罗斯开展合作,特别是推进能源、金融等领域合作?中俄如何进一步加强在国际事务中的协调配合?
Russia Today News Agency: Against the background of Western sanctions on Russia and the sharp depreciation of the ruble, how will China carry out cooperation with Russia, especially in the energy and financial sectors? And what will China and Russia do to further strengthen their coordination and cooperation in international affairs?
王毅:中俄关系不受国际风云影响,也不针对任何第三方。由于中俄双方已经建立起牢固的战略互信,两国关系更趋成熟、稳定。作为全面战略协作伙伴,中俄之间有着相互支持的好传统。两国人民的友谊也为加强战略合作提供了坚实的民意基础。
Wang Yi: The China-Russia relationship is not dictated by international vicissitudes and does not target any third party.Thanks to the strong strategic trust the two sides have established, our relationship has become more mature and stable.As comprehensive strategic partners of coordination, China and Russia have a good tradition of supporting each other.And the friendship between our two peoples provides a strong foundation for strengthening strategic cooperation between the two sides.中俄务实合作是因为相互需要,秉持的是互利双赢,而且有着巨大内生动力和提升空间。今年,中俄务实合作有望取得一系列新成果。我们将力争实现双边贸易1000亿美元目标,签署丝绸之路经济带合作协议并启动对接,全面开工建设东线天然气管道并签署西线天然气项目合作协议,加快联合研制远程宽体客机进程,启动远东地区开发战略合作,推进高铁建设合作等。同时,我们也将继续深化双方在金融、油气、核能等领域的合作。
Practical cooperation between China and Russia is based on mutual need, seeks win-win results, and has enormous internal impetus and room for expansion.This year, our practical cooperation is expected to deliver a series of new results.For example, we will work hard to lift two-way trade to US$100 billion.We will sign an agreement to work on the Silk Road Economic Belt and begin relevant cooperation.We will start full construction of the eastern route of the natural gas pipeline and sign an agreement on the western route of the pipeline.We will accelerate the joint development and research of long-distance, wide-body passenger jets.We will start strategic cooperation on the development of Russia's Far Eastern region.And we will strengthen our cooperation on high-speed railways.At the same time, we will continue to intensify our cooperation in the financial, oil and gas, and nuclear-power sectors.中俄都是安理会常任理事国,我们愿为维护国际和平与安全继续开展战略协调与合作。今年,中俄将各自举办一系列纪念反法西斯战争胜利70周年活动,我们将相互支持,共同维护国际正义和二战成果。
China and Russia are both permanent members of the UN Security Council.We will continue to carry out strategic coordination and cooperation to maintain international peace and security.This year, both countries will hold a series of activities to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the end of the world's anti-Fascist war.We will support each other and jointly uphold international peace and the outcome of the Second World War.新华社记者:今年是联合国成立70周年,对于国际社会来说是一个承前启后的重要历史时刻。有人说中国想要挑战甚至推翻现有国际秩序,推动建立一个由中国主导的国际新秩序。你对此有何评论?
Xinhua News Agency: This year marks the 70th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations.It is an important historical moment for the international community to reflect on the past and look to the future.Some people say that China wants to challenge and even overturn the current international order, and replace it with a new one dominated by China itself.What is your comment?
王毅:我要明确地讲,中国历来是国际秩序的建设性力量。如果把联合国为中心的国际秩序和国际体系比作为一艘大船,70年前中国就曾经亲手参加了它的设计和建造。而且,中国还是当时第一个在《联合国宪章》上签字的国家。今天,我们和190多个国家同在这条船上,我们想的决不是要把船打翻,而是如何和各国共同努力,让这艘大船沿着正确方向开得更稳更好。
Wang Yi: I want to make it very clear that China has always been a constructive force in building the international order.If we can compare the international order and system built around the United Nations to a big boat, then 70 years ago China was intimately involved in designing and building that boat, and China was the first country to put its signature on the Charter of the United Nations.Today we are in this boat together with more than 190 other countries.So of course, we don't want to upset that boat.Rather, we want to work with the other passengers to ensure that this boat will sail forward steadily and in the right direction.70年来,国际格局与形势发生了很大变化。国际秩序自然也需要与时俱进。中国主张对国际秩序和体系进行改革,但这种改革不是推倒重来,也非另起炉灶,而是创新完善。总的方向是推进国际关系民主化和国际治理法治化,尤其是维护好广大发展中国家的正当权益,从而使这个世界更平等,更和谐,更安全。
Seventy years have passed.The international situation and landscape has changed dramatically.Naturally, the international order needs to be updated.China supports the reform of the international order and system.Such reform is not about overturning the current system or starting all over again;rather, it is about seeking new ideas to improve it.The general direction is to promote democracy in international relations and the rule of law in global governance.In particular, it is very important to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of developing countries, which are in the majority, so that we can make the world a more equal, harmonious and safe place.美国全国广播公司记者:上个月,国务委员杨洁篪同美国总统国家安全事务助理赖斯举行会晤,双方同意“加强在地区和国际性挑战上的沟通协调”。今年下半年习主席将对美国进行访问,中美加强沟通协调、构建新型大国关系将如何帮助两国解决网络安全分歧或亚太地区海上争端?
NBC: Last month, State Councilor Yang Jiechi and National Security Advisor Susan Rice declared that both sides have agreed to strengthen coordination on regional and global challenges.With President Xi Jinping visiting the United States later this year, in your view, how can this strengthened coordination for the new type of great-power relationship help resolve the US-China disputes over, for example, cyber-security or the maritime conflicts in the Asia-Pacific region?
王毅:习近平主席将于今年秋天应邀对美国进行国事访问。我们期待两国元首继瀛台夜话之后再续佳话,为推进中美新型大国关系建设注入新的动力。
Wang Yi: President Xi Jinping will pay a state visit to the United States this fall at the invitation of his US counterpart.We expect that following their Yingtai meeting last year, the two presidents will have another productive discussion and inject new momentum into our efforts to build a new model of major-country relations between China and the United States.中美构建新型大国关系是一个创举,不会一帆风顺,但却势在必行,因为它符合双方的共同利益,也符合时代发展的潮流。有句话叫“心诚则灵”。只要双方拿出诚意,守住“不冲突不对抗”的底线,筑牢“相互尊重”这个基础,就能做好“合作共赢”这篇大文章。The undertaking to build a new model of relations is a pioneering effort.It will not be smooth sailing.But it is a logical development, because it accords with the common interests of both sides and the trend of our times.There is a Chinese saying, “Sincerity can work wonders.” As long as the two sides show sincerity, buttress the bottom line of “no conflict and no confrontation”, cement the foundation of “mutual respect”, then we can explore the immense possibility of “win-win cooperation” between China and the United States.中美是两个大国,不可能没有分歧,分歧也不会因为构建新型大国关系就一夜消失。但我们不必总是用显微镜去放大问题,而是要更多端起望远镜去眺望未来,把握好大方向。China and the United States are two large countries.It's impossible for there not to be any disagreements between us, and these disagreements will not disappear the moment we commit to build a new model of major-country relations.But we shouldn't magnify the problems through a microscope.Rather, we should use the telescope to look ahead to the future and make sure we will move forward in the right direction.习近平主席在北京APEC提出建立面向未来的亚太伙伴关系,得到很多国家积极响应。中美在亚太地区利益最交织、互动最频繁。我们认为,新型大国关系应从亚太做起。只要双方建立和增进战略互信,彼此积极良性互动,中美就一定能共同为本地区的和平、稳定与繁荣作出贡献。
At the Beijing APEC meeting, President Xi Jinping called for shaping the future through Asia-Pacific partnership.Many countries responded enthusiastically to his initiative.China and the United States interact most frequently in the Asia-Pacific and our interests intersect the most in this region.In our view, the building of a new model of major-country relations should begin with the Asia-Pacific region.If both sides can work to establish and deepen strategic trust and have positive interactions, then we can surely jointly contribute to peace, stability and prosperity in the region.至于网络安全问题,中美都是互联网大国,在维护网络安全方面有着共同利益。我们希望网络空间成为两国合作的新疆域,而不是相互摩擦的新源头。
As for the issue of cyber-security, since both China and the United States are major users of the Internet, we have common interests in upholding it.We hope cyberspace will become a new frontier of our cooperation rather than a new source of friction.《中国日报》记者:近一段时间,从悉尼到巴黎,从西亚到西非,重大恐怖袭击事件频繁发生。中方对打击恐怖主义、开展国际反恐合作持什么立场?
China Daily: In recent months, major terrorist attacks have frequently hit many parts of the world, from Sydney to Paris, from western Asia to western Africa.What is China's position on fighting terrorism and carrying out international counter-terrorism cooperation?
王毅:恐怖主义是人类的共同威胁,打击恐怖主义是每个国家都应该承担的责任,中方一直积极参与国际反恐合作。同时中方认为,反恐的治本之策是要根除恐怖主义滋生的土壤。只有促进经济社会发展、妥善处理地区冲突、倡导不同文明、宗教、民族之间的平等对话,才能让恐怖主义的幽灵无所遁形。
Wang Yi: Terrorism is a common scourge to mankind, and fighting it is a common responsibility of every country.China has always been an active participant in international counter-terrorism cooperation.At the same time, we believe that to uproot terrorism, we must remove its breeding ground.To deny any haven to the specter of terrorism, we have to promote economic and social development, appropriately handle regional conflicts, and advocate equal-footed dialogue between different civilizations, religions and ethnic groups.中国也是恐怖主义受害者,面临“东伊运”暴恐势力的现实威胁。中方愿本着相互尊重、平等合作的精神,同各国一道,共同应对恐怖主义带来的新威胁新挑战。
China has also suffered at the hands of terrorism.The “Eastern Turkestan Islamic Movement” is a clear and present threat to our security.We would like to work with other countries in the spirit of mutual respect and equal-footed cooperation to jointly address the new threats and new challenges brought by terrorism.韩国联合通讯记者:朝鲜最高领导人已经确定赴俄罗斯出席五月卫国战争胜利纪念活动,但他迄未访华。中朝两国领导人今年是否能实现会晤?六方会谈是否还有恢复可能? Yonhap News Agency: The top leader of the DPRK has decided to attend the activities to be held in Russia in May to mark the victory of the Great Patriotic War, but he has not yet made a visit to China.Will the leaders of the DPRK and China have a meeting this year? And is it possible that the Six-Party Talks can still be resumed?
王毅:中朝是友好邻邦。中国人重信义、讲情义,我们珍视中朝传统友谊,致力于两国关系的正常发展。中朝关系有着牢固基础,不应也不会受一时一事的影响。两国领导人何时会晤要看双方方便。
Wang Yi: China and the DPRK are friendly neighbors.Chinese people emphasize good faith and value friendship.We cherish our traditional friendship with the DPRK and we seek the normal development of our relations.The China-DPRK relationship has a strong foundation.It should not and will not be affected by temporary events.As to when our leaders will meet, it will have to suit the schedule of both sides.半岛局势总体上保持着稳定,中方为此发挥了建设性作用。维护半岛和平稳定,实现半岛无核化符合各方共同利益。当前,半岛局势又进入敏感期,我们呼吁有关国家保持冷静克制,多说正面的话,多做积极的事,为重启六方会谈继续营造氛围,积累条件。
The situation on the Korean Peninsula is basically stable, and China has played a constructive role in bringing that about.It is in the common interests of all relevant parties to maintain peace and stability on the Peninsula and achieve the denuclearization of the Peninsula.At the moment, the situation there has entered a delicate period.We call on the relevant countries to exercise calm and restraint, and say and do things that will have a positive effect, so as to continue to foster the atmosphere and conditions for resuming the Six-Party Talks.中国国际广播电台记者:伊朗核问题全面协议谈判已两度延期,很快又将面临6月底的新期限。请问你如何看待谈判的前景?中国在谈判中发挥什么样的作用,下步打算为推动谈判做些什么?
China Radio International: The negotiation of a comprehensive agreement on the Iranian nuclear issue has been twice extended and the June deadline is not far away.Can you talk about the prospect of the negotiation? What kind of role has China played in the negotiation? And what steps is China going to take to push forward the negotiation?
王毅:全面解决伊核问题,有助于维护国际核不扩散体系,有助于促进中东地区的和平安宁,有助于提供通过谈判解决重大难题的有益经验,各方应锲而不舍、善始善终。伊核谈判可能产生的影响远远超出谈判本身,出现曲折和困难在所难免,目前,谈判前景虽然扑朔迷离,但已经露出了隧道尽头的亮光。我们认为,谈判已到了临界点,各方尤其是主要谈判方应当尽快做出政治决断。
Wang Yi: The comprehensive settlement of the Iranian nuclear issue can help to strengthen the international system against nuclear proliferation, promote peace and tranquility in the Middle East, and provide useful experience for resolving major difficult issues through negotiation.We believe the parties should keep at it and finish the negotiation.The possible ramifications of the Iranian nuclear negotiation will go far beyond the negotiation itself.It's not surprising that there might be some ups and downs on the way.At the moment, although there is still some uncertainty about the prospect of the negotiation, we can already see light at the end of the tunnel.In our view, the negotiation has reached a critical point.The relevant parties, especially the main protagonists, should make a political decision as soon as possible.中方是伊核谈判的重要一方,迄今为推动解决谈判的焦点和难点作出了积极贡献。我们愿和各方一道,早日跑完伊核谈判这场马拉松。
China is an important party to the negotiation, and we have made a positive contribution to resolving the difficult issues and sticking points in the negotiation.We are prepared to work with other relevant parties to finish the marathon negotiation on the Iranian nuclear issue at an early date.日本广播协会记者:中国政府日前宣布将在今年二战胜利70周年之际举行阅兵仪式。中方是否有邀请日本首相安倍访华、日中首脑共商两国关系未来发展大计的打算?在日本有不少的民众认为,“中国是不是利用手中的历史问题作为武器,贬低这些年来日本对世界和平的贡献,中伤日本在国际上的信誉”?如果中国真是有“大国胸怀”的话,是不是应该调整对日政策?
NHK: China has announced that it will hold a military parade to mark the 70th anniversary of the end of the Second World War.Does China have a plan to invite the Japanese Prime Minister to come to China so that the leaders of the two countries can jointly discuss the future of the bilateral relationship? Many people in Japan believe that maybe China is using the history issue as a tool to denigrate Japan's contribution to international peace over many years and tarnish Japan's international reputation.If China really has the broad mind of a large country, then shouldn't it readjust its policy towards Japan?
王毅:今年是中国人民抗日战争胜利70周年,作为当年世界反法西斯战争的东方主战场,中方参照其他国家的做法,举办包括阅兵式在内的纪念活动十分正常、自然。目的就是铭记历史,缅怀先烈,珍爱和平,开辟未来。我们会向所有的有关国家领导人和国际组织发出邀请。不管是谁,只要诚心来,我们都欢迎。
Wang Yi: This year marks the 70th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese people's war of resistance against Japanese aggression.As the main Eastern theater in the world's anti-Fascist war, China will hold a series of commemorative activities, including a military parade.This is consistent with the practice of other countries, and is perfectly normal and natural.Our goal is to remember history, commemorate the martyrs, cherish peace and look to the future.We will extend invitations to the leaders of all relevant countries and international organizations.We welcome the participation of anyone who is sincere about coming.你刚才又提到了历史问题。这个问题一直困扰着中日关系,我们要问一声,究竟原因何在?我想起一位中国的外交老前辈在这一问题上的主张,他认为,加害者越不忘加害于人的责任,受害者才越有可能平复曾经受到的伤害。其实,这句话既是人与人的交往之道,也是对待历史的正确态度。日本当政者在这个问题上做得如何,首先请扪心自问,世人也自有公论。70年前,日本输掉了战争。70年后,日本不应再输掉良知。是继续背着历史包袱不放,还是与过去一刀两断,最终要由日本自己来选择。
You mentioned the history issue.This issue has been haunting the China-Japan relationship, and we cannot but ask why this has been the case.I remember the words of an elder Chinese diplomat.He said that the more the victimizer is conscious of his guilt, the easier the victimized can recover from the suffering.Actually this is common sense in interpersonal relations and the correct attitude towards history.Those in power in Japan should first ask themselves what they have done on this score.Of course, the people of the world will reach their own conclusion.Seventy years ago, Japan lost the war;seventy years afterwards, Japan must not lose its conscience.Will it continue to carry the baggage of history, or will it make a clean break with past aggression? Ultimately, the choice is Japan's.香港凤凰卫视记者:去年一年,我们看到中国在许多国际热点问题上积极出击。中方倡议举行了“支持伊加特南苏丹和平进程专门磋商”,举办了阿富汗问题伊斯坦布尔进程外长会,你还赴伊朗就伊核问题进行斡旋,这是否说明中方将更加积极主动参与解决国际热点问题?
Phoenix Satellite TV: I want to ask about China's active involvement in settling international hot-spot issues in 2014.Last year, China called for a special consultation in support of the IGAD-led peace process in South Sudan, and hosted the Ministerial Conference of the Istanbul Process on Afghanistan.And Mr.Minister, you have travelled personally to Iran to mediate the nuclear issue.Does all of these mean that China will take a more active part in helping to resolve international hot-spot issues?
王毅:去年,我们积极参与了一系列热点问题的斡旋,承担应尽的国际责任。同时我们也在不断探索一条有中国特色的解决热点之路,注重从中国的传统文化中汲取智慧和营养。Wang Yi: Last year, we took an active part in the mediation of a series of hot-spot issues and shouldered our share of international responsibility.In the meantime, we have been searching for a uniquely Chinese approach to settling hot-spot issues, and we pay a lot of attention to drawing wisdom and inspiration from China's traditional culture.如同博大精深的中医之道,对待热点问题首先要把准脉。以客观公正态度,搞清来龙去脉和是非曲直,不偏听偏信,不乱开药方。
Maybe there is a thing or two that we can learn from the profound traditional Chinese medicine.When approaching a hot-spot issue, first, we need to take the pulse.We need to adopt an objective and impartial attitude, understand where the issue has come from, and establish the basic facts.We shouldn't just listen to one side of the story and we shouldn't write out the wrong prescription.二要综合施策。不动辄诉诸武力或制裁,而是坚持政治解决大方向,提出全面、平衡、兼顾各方诉求的一揽子方案。
Second, we need to adopt a multi-pronged approach.Rather than willfully resorting to the use of force or sanctions, we should seek a political settlement and try to put forward a comprehensive and balanced package solution that addresses the concerns of all involved.三要标本兼治。找准问题的源头所在,对症下药,从根子上消除滋生的土壤,才能使病症永不复发。
Third, we need to address both the symptom and the root cause.It is important to know what the heart of the problem is and then suit the remedy to the problem.And we should remove the breeding ground so that there will not be a relapse ever again.总之,我们会在坚持不干涉内政,尊重国家主权与平等的前提下,继续为妥善处理各种热点、难点问题提出中国方案,发挥中国作用。
In short, we will continue to follow a non-interventionist approach and respect the sovereign equality of countries.In that context, we will continue to put forward Chinese solution and play China's role in helping to appropriately resolve all kinds of hot-spot and protracted issues.尼日利亚国家电视台记者:中国非常善于制定并执行计划,这帮助中国实现了巨大发展。相信在外交方面一定也制定了相关计划。最近中方任命了新任驻非盟大使,我们能否期待中国在推进对非合作、加强对非伙伴关系方面推出新的举措?
Nigerian Television: China has a culture of planning ahead and implementing these plans, and this has contributed greatly to how the country has become what it is today.Now that China has presented the 2015 year plan for work in the country, I would like to believe that China also has concrete plans for Africa.I see the deployment of an envoy to the Africa Union in Addis Ababa as a good sign.What concrete plans does China have for Africa, particularly in promoting win-win partnership between those countries?
王毅:中国确实做事愿意有个规划,但我们也善于应对突发事件。比如去年西非地区突发埃博拉疫情,中国政府和人民感同身受,率先驰援,紧急提供了4批共7.5亿元人民币的援助,向疫区派出医务人员近千人次。他们冒着感染的风险,为非洲人民的健康奋战在疫区。我们要向他们致敬,为他们点赞!
Wang Yi: It's true that China likes to make plans before we do things, but we are also good at responding to emergencies.For example, when western Africa was suddenly hit by the Ebola epidemic last year, the Chinese government and people felt for them.We were the first to deliver aid, and altogether we provided four tranches of emergency aid with a total value of 750 million RMB yuan.We also deployed nearly 1,000 medical workers to the affected areas.The Chinese medical workers know the risk of infection, yet for the sake of the health of the African people, they are still battling in the affected countries.We want to pay tribute to them and give them the thumbs-up.就在两天前,利比里亚最后一名埃博拉患者从中国援建的医疗中心康复出院,这条消息,让我们感到很欣慰。
Just two days ago, the last Ebola patient in Liberia was released from a Chinese-run medical treatment center.What wonderful news and what a relief!
说到中非合作,去年李克强总理访非时,提出了加强中非合作的“六大工程”和“三大网络”建设,得到非洲各国广泛赞同。最近,我们又新设了常驻非盟使团,首任团长已经到任,这体现了中方对中非合作以及非洲一体化的支持。中非合作论坛今年将召开第六届部长级会议。我们将在巩固各领域传统合作的同时,着眼非洲最迫切的需求再做好三件事,一是推进产能合作,助力非洲工业化进程,二是开展卫生合作,提升非洲防疫抗灾能力,三是加强安全合作,维护非洲的和平稳定。
Speaking of China-Africa cooperation, during his visit to Africa last year, Premier Li Keqiang put forward the idea of working together to build six projects and three key networks.His call received strong support from many African countries.Recently we set up our permanent mission to the African Union, and the first head of the mission has already hit the ground running.This fully shows China's support for China-Africa cooperation and Africa's integration process.Later this year, the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation will hold its sixth ministerial conference.While consolidating all areas of traditional cooperation, we will focus on the urgent needs of Africa and do more in the following three areas: first, industrial cooperation to boost Africa's industrialization process;second, health cooperation to build up Africa's capacity for dealing with infectious diseases;and third, security cooperation to help Africa maintain peace and stability.中国和非洲从来都是命运共同体,我们愿意与非洲兄弟一道努力,把中非传统友好转化为互利合作成果,把非洲发展潜能转化为国家综合实力。
China and Africa have always been a community of shared destiny.We are prepared to work with our African brothers and sisters to turn our traditional friendship into results of win-win cooperation and turn Africa's development potential into comprehensive national strength.《环球时报》记者:近来缅甸北部局势持续紧张,不断有缅甸边民越过边境进入中国这侧,这是否对中国西南边境的安全构成了压力?同时对于在缅甸战区的中国公民,中方如何保护他们的安全?
Global Times: The situation in northern Myanmar has been tense in recent weeks.Many residents have crossed the border into China.Does this put pressure on the security of China's southwestern border? There are some Chinese citizens caught up in the conflict.What will China do to ensure their safety?
王毅:中缅有着2000多公里边界,两国是山水相连,休戚与共的友好邻邦。最近,缅北局势出现了一些动荡。邻居家有事,我们当然很关心。中国的立场很明确,缅北问题是缅甸的内政,希望得到和平解决。同时,中缅边境不能乱,缅北地区要稳定,因为这符合中缅两国和两国人民的共同利益。
Wang Yi: China and Myanmar have a common border of over 2,000 kilometers.Our two countries are friendly neighbors sharing not just common mountains and rivers, but also weal and woe.In recent weeks, there has been some instability in northern Myanmar.When problems arise in our neighbor's house, of course we follow the situation very closely.China's position is very clear: what happens there is Myanmar's internal affair, and we hope it can be resolved peacefully.At the same time, stability must be maintained in the China-Myanmar border region as well as in northern Myanmar, because this serves the common interests of our two countries and two peoples.中方将与缅方继续沟通合作,共同维护好中缅边境的安宁,共同保障好中缅两国人民的安全。
China will continue to have communication and cooperation with the Myanmar side to jointly ensure tranquility in the border area and the safety of people from both countries.印度报业托拉斯记者:印度总理莫迪今年将访华,你对中印关系发展有何期待?中方如何看待这次访问?两国是否有望在边界问题上取得突破?
Press Trust of India: The Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to visit China in the course of a few months.How does China view his visit, and what kind of significance does it attach to this? And also, the two countries are scheduled to have the next round of border talks.Is there a breakthrough expected for us to resolve the boundary issue?
王毅:去年9月,习近平主席对印度进行历史性访问。两国领导人在莫迪总理家乡古吉拉特邦手摇纺车的画面在中国广为传播。中华民族讲究礼尚往来,今年莫迪总理访华也一定会受到中国政府和人民的热烈欢迎。
Wang Yi: Last September, President Xi Jinping paid a historic visit to India.The picture of the two leaders working the spinning wheel in Gujarat, the home state of the Prime Minister, has spread far and wide in China.The Chinese people believe in reciprocating the courtesy of others.So I'm sure when Prime Minister Modi visits China later this year, he will be warmly welcomed by the Chinese government and people.邓小平同志曾指出,中印两国不发展起来,亚洲世纪就不会到来。我们愿同印方一道,落实好两国领导人达成的重要共识,携手并进,龙象共舞,推动两大东方文明尽快复兴,促进两大新兴市场共同繁荣,确保两大邻国和睦相处。
Mr.Deng Xiaoping once said that unless China and India are developed, there will be no Asian century.China is prepared to work with India to implement the important agreement reached by our leaders.The Chinese “dragon” and the Indian “elephant” should join each other in a duet to work for the early revitalization of two oriental civilizations, the common prosperity of two emerging markets and the amicable coexistence of two large neighbors.中印边界问题是历史遗留的,经过多年努力,边界谈判续有进展,边界争议得到管控。当前,中印边界谈判正处于量变的积累当中,有如登山,虽然辛苦,但走的是上坡路。这就尤为需要把中印合作发展得更好,为解决边界问题不断提供动力。
As for the China-India boundary question, it is a legacy of history.We have worked on it for many years and made some progress in the boundary negotiation.The dispute has been contained.At the moment, the boundary negotiation is in the process of building up small positive developments.It is like climbing a mountain.The going is tough and that is only because we are on the way up.This is all the more reason that we should do more to strengthen China-India cooperation, so that we can enable and facilitate the settlement of the boundary question.中新网记者:据报道,最近中国正加紧在南海岛礁填海造地,这是否意味着中国的南海政策乃至周边外交政策已经发生了变化?
China News Service: According to media reports, China is reclaiming land around its islands and reefs in the South China Sea.Does this signal a change in China's policy towards the South China Sea and even the neighborhood?
王毅:中国在自己的岛礁上开展必要的建设,不针对也不影响任何人。我们不会像有的国家那样跑到别人家里去搞“违章建筑”,也不会接受在自家院里施工时被人指手画脚。只要是合法合理的事情,我们就有权利做。
Wang Yi: China is carrying out necessary construction on its own islands and reefs.The construction does not target or affect anyone.We are not like some countries, who engage in illegal construction in another person's house.And we do not accept criticism from others when we are merely building facilities in our own yard.We have every right to do things that are lawful and justified.同时,中国将继续维护好南海的航行自由,继续致力于通过直接对话协商和平解决争议,继续为地区和平与稳定发挥建设性作用。中国的周边外交政策旨在奉行“亲、诚、惠、容”理念,实现睦邻、安邻、富邻,这一政策没有变,也不会变。
This said, China will continue to uphold freedom of navigation in the South China Sea.We will continue to peacefully resolve the disputes through direct dialogue and consultation.And we will continue to play a constructive role in maintaining regional peace and stability.China's policy towards the neighborhood is guided by the principle of sincerity, amity, mutual benefit and inclusiveness.It aims to bring harmony, stability and prosperity to the neighborhood.This policy has not and will not change.哈萨克斯坦国家电视广播公司:中国去年以来在海外开展了针对贪腐分子的“猎狐行动”,追逃追赃。中方是否将进一步推进这一行动,并且加强国际合作?
KAZ NTV: Last year, China carried out an overseas operation to go after corruption suspects and bring back their criminal assets.In 2015, will China continue to pursue international cooperation to counter corruption?
王毅:2014年,我们在海外开展了“猎狐行动”,抓回一批外逃嫌犯,维护了法律尊严和社会正义。我们还完成了11项引渡条约和刑事司法协助条约谈判,使这两类条约总数达到91项,实现了各大洲的全覆盖。我们当然也愿意与更多国家签署有关条约和协议。我们推动北京APEC发表《反腐败宣言》,建立了APEC反腐败执法合作网络,同许多国家的执法合作更加顺畅有效。我们对各国给予的支持表示赞赏。
Wang Yi: In 2014, we carried out a campaign code-named “Operation Fox Hunt” to bring back fugitives and uphold the sanctity of laws and social justice.Also last year, we wrapped up 11 extradition treaties and treaties on judicial mutual assistance in criminal matters, bringing the total number of such treaties we have concluded to 91.This means that we now have such treaties with countries on every continent.Of course, we would like to conclude more such treaties and agreements with more countries.You may remember that at last year's Beijing APEC meeting, we secured the adoption of a Declaration on Fighting Corruption and the establishment of the APEC Network of Anti-Corruption Authorities and Law-Enforcement Agencies.This will make our law-enforcement cooperation with relevant countries more smooth and effective.I would like to take this opportunity to appreciate the support given to us by many countries.反腐败永远在路上,国际追逃追赃也决不会松懈。外交部将与世界各国加强沟通协作,将反腐败国际合作这张天罗地网织得更密,让再狡猾的狐狸也无处可逃。
Anti-corruption is a never-ending struggle, and we will never relent in our effort to bring back fugitives and recover their criminal assets.The Chinese Foreign Ministry will strengthen communication and coordination with other countries and cast a wider and tighter net of international anti-corruption cooperation, so that even the most cunning fox will have nowhere to escape or hide.中央电视台记者:在去年中央外事工作会上,总书记明确提出要推进中国特色大国外交。到底什么是中国特色大国外交?它最鲜明的特点是什么?
CCTV: At last year's Central Foreign Affairs Work Conference, General Secretary Xi Jinping stated that China will pursue major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics.Mr.Minister, can you spell that out for us, and talk about its most salient feature?
王毅:中国特色大国外交理念十分丰富,比如坚持党的领导和社会主义制度,坚持独立自主的和平外交政策,坚持走和平发展道路,坚持大小国家一律平等,坚持履行正确义利观等等。这些理念发端于中华民族的优秀传统,体现了社会主义制度的本质属性。就当前而言,我认为一个重要特色就是“合作共赢”。
Wang Yi: The concept of major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics is a very rich one.It includes many things, for example adhering to the leadership of the Communist Party of China and the socialist system, following the independent foreign policy of peace, sticking to the path of peaceful development, insisting on the equality of all countries large and small, and striking a right balance between upholding principles and pursuing shared benefits.These ideas originate from the fine tradition of the Chinese nation and reflect the essential property of the socialist system.For our current purposes, let me say that the hallmark of major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics is win-win cooperation.去年习近平主席提出构建以合作共赢为核心的新型国际关系。这一倡议顺应了时代发展潮流,是对国际关系理论的重要创新。在全球化大背景下,各国利益日益融合,国家之间也许文化不同,信仰不同,制度不同,但合作共赢却是最大公约数。构建合作共赢的新型国际关系,代替的是单打独斗的老做法,摒弃的是赢者通吃的旧思维。
Last year, President Xi Jinping called for building a new type of international relations featuring win-win cooperation.His call echoes the trend of the times and represents an important innovation in the theory of international relations.In a globalized world, the interests of countries are increasingly intertwined.Countries may have different cultures, faiths or systems, but at the very least, we can all accept the idea of win-win cooperation.By building a new type of international relations featuring win-win cooperation, we want to replace the old practice of “going it alone” and reject the old mentality of “the winner takes all”.总之,与历史上的大国不同,中国自身已经走出了一条和平发展的新路。现在,我们还愿与世界各国一道,再走出一条合作共赢的新路。中国的外交,将在党中央领导下,奋力前行,为国家担当,为世界尽责。
In short, in contrast to other major countries in history, China has already found a new path of peaceful development for itself.Now we would like to work with other countries to find a new path of win-win cooperation for the world.Under the leadership of the CPC Central Committee, Chinese diplomats will forge ahead and perform our duty to the country and our responsibility to the world.
第二篇:外交部部长王毅简历(精选)
王毅为什么能当上外交部长?
作者: xhmyhomenews 关注 于 2013-05-28 19:54 2013年3月16日,原中台办主任王毅重返外交部,正式出任外交部部长。履新后第六天,他就陪同新任国家主席习近平踏上了北方邻国俄罗斯及非洲坦桑尼亚、南非、刚果共和国等。目前,他正陪同李克强总理访问亚欧四国。
这是中国新一届中央领导集体的外交开局之旅,自然被赋予很多内涵,也受到全世界的瞩目。怎样才能在有限的访问时间内,充分展示新一届领导人的外交思路和风采、取得更多外交成果,这是对王毅的一个重要挑战。他需要了解此行的每一项活动、每一个环节,与到访国进行深入、细致的沟通,容不得出半点差错。
王毅的“升迁之路”与其他外长相比,有些不同。考察钱其琛之后的中国几任外交部长,唐家璇、李肇星和杨洁篪都是先在外交部工作几年之后,被派到驻外使馆工作,担任大使或者参赞等高级职务,再调回外交部后工作一段时间就成为部长。驻外工作被称作“锻炼的机会”,也是完备履历的重要一环。比如,钱其琛曾在驻苏联大使馆担任参赞、唐家璇曾在驻日使馆担任公使衔参赞、李肇星和杨洁篪都曾担任驻美大使。所以当年王毅使日,就有不少人就认为这是高层为日后提拔他“更上层楼”而铺路。王毅于2007年9月卸任驻日大使回到国内后,被任命为外交部常务副部长兼党组书记。由于当年即将召开中共17大,人事布局颇受关注。因而当时很多海外媒体普遍分析认为,在这一重要时间节点,王毅结束大使任期回国,又被任命为外交部高层领导,潜台词就是他已内定成为下届外长。可几个月后王毅到国台办走马上任。这种不走寻常路的经历令不少政治分析人士看不懂,甚至传出王毅因被内部排斥而无缘外交部长一职的消息,但最终命运还是眷顾这位“儒雅先生”。当然,高层选择王毅还有多番更重要的原因,从这一个“点”可以窥见未来几年外交事务的“面”。
实际上,从王毅的仕途来看,他一直是受着力培养的全才型的涉外精英。1989年,王毅担任中国驻日使馆参赞的时候只有36岁;1995年出任外交部亚洲司司长时只有42岁;1998年王毅出任部长助理兼政策研究室主任;2001年担任主管亚洲事务的副部长的时候,他还不到50岁,是外交部中最年轻的副部长。当时在很多老外交官眼里已然是一颗“未来之星”。既有语言优势,又懂政策研究,还了解世界经济与国际关系,同时与中国的亚洲邻国和最大
竞争对手美国都有过密切往来。王毅的履历其实已经相当完备。随后国台办的经历让王毅的履历表显得更加丰满也更独特。
担任国台办主任伊始,王毅力推国台办“转型”——积极推进两岸关系发展,推动两岸人员往来和经济文化交流。如今,盘点王毅在国台办近5年的工作不难发现,两岸关系实现了不少零突破:两岸间的空域和水域得到开放、人员往来更加便捷、大陆游客可以申请去台湾“自由行”。更重要的是,两岸之间确定了“两会”(海协会与海基会)协商的模式,签订了《两岸经济合作协议》。台湾媒体对王毅的表现也肯定颇多,认为他沟通能力强,形象好,而且正好“遇到”国民党管理台湾事务,对两岸合作比较积极,所以在王毅担任国台办主任这几年,台海总体发展不错。而正是在担任台办主任这段期间,王毅得以展现他出色的外交手腕,近年来内地与台湾的互动加强、隔膜逐渐减弱,与王毅的努力是分不开的。
此外,因为曾经担任中国驻日本大使,王毅被认为是中国外交官中的“日本通”。在担任驻日大使期间,王毅充分利用他的人脉关系和智慧,让中日关系拨云见日。2006年,中日两国的“破冰之旅”与2007年的“融冰之旅”,大大消除了两国之间长期的隔阂,走向新的战略伙伴关系。日本各界充满期待,希望他出任外长能让中日关系回暖。很多外交专家对他的外交风格评价不错,认为他“勤奋好学、注重细节且具有温和的外交风格。”可见,王毅的角色也是“救火队长”,临危受命而不是闲差一份。
2013年5月1日至5日,王毅还展开了对泰国、印度尼西亚、新加坡、文莱东盟四国的正式访问。其间,他分别与泰国总理英拉、印尼外长马尔迪、新加坡总理李显龙、文莱苏丹哈桑纳尔等举行了会谈。有学者认为,王毅此次出访显示中国已开始发力“周边外交”。这次被王毅称作“沟通之旅”、“合作之旅”的访问,可以说成果颇丰,其中最重要的是明确了中国与这四国下一步互利合作的方向和路线图。
而更重要的是,早在出任驻日大使之前,王毅就曾参与一些重要的外交活动,比如六方会谈。王毅作为中国代表团团长,主持召开过三轮朝鲜核问题六方会谈,并在其团长身份任内,使会谈达成重要的共识:六方第一次坐下来平心静气讨论朝鲜核问题,第一次强调和平解决非武力的重要性,朝鲜第一次提出愿意以透明方式放弃核武,美国第一次提出全面解决朝核问题的方案,会谈第一次发布主席声明等等。
综上可见,对台、对日、对朝三方,王毅都有丰富的外交经验和良好口碑,而且他还能坚定执行中国奉行的内政外交政策,即“对外谋求和平、对内谋求和谐、对台谋求和解”的“三和政策”。以沟通协调、解决争端为重点,撇开长久以来的“大家长”思想和武力解决争议的做法,与有异议的一方和平对话,与国际社会、与台湾共建和谐社会,这也是高层选择王
毅的主要原因。
王毅曾说:“什么是外交?在我看来,外交就是通过和外国人打交道,让人家了解你,然后接受你,直至信任你。只有这样,你才能去影响人家,才能实现你的政策目标。这就是外交官平常所做的工作。”诚然,外交事务关系到一个大国的对外形象,外交官应该学会做“大事”,而不是做“大嘴”。作为一流的外交官,王毅执掌外交部后的动作是值得期待的。王部长曾强硬表态“不允许在中国家门口生事”

:篇二:2015外交部部长王毅答记者问中英文
2015年3月8日,十二届全国人大三次会议在两会新闻中心举行记者会,邀请外交部长王毅就中国外交政策和对外关系回答中外记者提问。
on 8 march 2015, the third session of the twelfth national peoples congress held a press conference at the press center of the two sessions.foreign minister wang yi was invited to answer questions from chinese and foreign media about chinas foreign policy and external relations.中华人民共和国外交部部长 王毅:记者朋友们,大家上午好。
今天是三八妇女节,首先我要向女记者们以及所有关心和支持中国外交的女同胞们致以诚挚的祝福。
wang yi: friends from the press, good morning.today is the international womens day.at the outset, i would like to extend sincere greetings to the female journalists and all chinese women who show understanding of and support for chinas diplomacy.记得去年也是今天,马航370航班失联。一年过去了,飞机还没有找到,但搜寻仍将继续。对于马航370航班的乘客家属,今天是艰难的一天,我们的心和大家在一起。马航已经启动了理赔的工作,我们愿意为每一位家属提供一切需要的服务,帮助大家维护好正当和合法的权益。现在我愿回答大家的问题。
人民日报记者:王外长您好,很高兴我第一个提问。您曾经说过2014年是中国外交全面推进的丰收之年,请问这个丰收之年具体体现在哪些方面?另外,2015年的中国外交有哪些值得期待的看点和关键词?谢谢。
peoples daily: mr.minister, you once said that 2014 was a year of harvest and all-round progress in chinas diplomacy.could you elaborate on that? and what can we expect from chinas diplomacy in 2015? what are the keywords we need to watch? 王毅:2014年的中国外交确实是丰收之年,同时也是开拓之年、创新之年。在以习近平同志为核心的党中央领导下,我们成功举办上海亚信峰会和北京apec两大主场外交,在历史上留下了深刻的中国印记。我们积极参与全球热点问题的解决,在国际和地区事务当中发挥了中国作用。
wang yi: indeed, 2014 was a year of harvest for chinas diplomacy.it was also a year of forging ahead and breaking new ground.我们大力拓展对外合作,“一带一路”倡议得到了广泛的响应。特别值得一提的是,我们着眼于构建以合作共赢为核心的新型国际关系,正在走出一条结伴而不结盟的对外交往新路。we made energetic efforts to expand external cooperation, and our initiative to establish a silk road economic belt and a 21st century maritime silk road won support from a lot of countries.it is particularly worth mentioning that focusing on building a new type of international relations featuring win-win cooperation, we are taking a new path of external relations characterized by partnership rather than alliance.到去年年底,我们已经同70多个国家和诸多的地区组织建立了不同形式的伙伴关系,基本形成覆盖全球的伙伴关系网络。中国的“朋友圈”越来越大,我们的好朋友、好伙伴越来越多。
by the end of last year, we had established different forms of partnerships with over 70 countries and a number of regional organizations, and basically established a global network of partnerships.one can say that chinas circle of friends and partners has widened and will continue to expand.2015年,我们将保持进取势头,拓展全方位外交,在坚定维护国家利益的同时,不断扩大与世界各国的共同利益。
2015年中国外交的关键词是“一个重点、两条主线”。一个重点就是全面推进“一带一路”。我们将进一步加强与各国的政策沟通,不断扩大彼此利益契合点。我们会探讨互利合作的有效途径,重点推动互联互通基础设施、陆上经济走廊、海上合作支点的建设。我们还愿意促进人文交流合作,加快自贸谈判进程。
the keywords for chinas diplomacy in 2015 will be one focus and two main themes.我们相信,“一带一路”必将更加深入人心,取得更多的早期收获,助力亚欧大陆实现整体振兴。两条主线就是要做好和平与发展这两篇大文章。我们将同国际社会一道,办好世界反法西斯战争胜利70周年纪念活动,以史为鉴,开辟未来,使中国成为维护和平的强大力量。we are confident that the belt and road initiative will win even more support and deliver even more early harvests, so as to catalyze the revitalization of the eurasian continent as a whole.anniversary of the end of the worlds anti-fascist war, draw lessons from history, look to the future, and make china a staunch force for peace.我们还将以纪念联合国成立70周年为契机,积极参与联合国发展峰会和国际气候变化合作,推动制定符合广大发展中国家利益的2015后发展议程和新的应对气候变化安排,发挥中国的建设性作用。谢谢!
the 70th anniversary of the founding of the united nations will be a good opportunity for us to take an active part in the uns development summit and international cooperation on climate change.we will play a constructive role in helping to secure a post-2015 development agenda and a new international regime for addressing climate change that are in the interests of developing countries.北京新京报记者:我们注意到,近年来中国公民出境人数不断攀升,而今年春节又掀起一股出国旅游热潮。请问,在便利公民出行和保护他们在海外正当权益方面今年外交部会有怎样的计划或者举措?谢谢。
beijing news: in recent years, more and more chinese citizens have made outbound visits, and we see a good example of that during the just passed chinese new year.what will the chinese foreign ministry do to facilitate the outbound visits of chinese citizens and protect their legitimate rights and interests overseas? 王毅:去年,中国公民出境首次突破了1亿人次,成为海外最大的流动群体。此外,我们还有2万多家中国企业,还有数百万中国同胞生活和工作在世界各地。所以说海外维权任务之重前所未有,责任之大也前所未有。我们始终把每一位同胞的安危冷暖放在心头,千方百计地推进海外民生工程。
去年外交部设立了全球领事保护应急呼叫中心12308热线,为海外游子与祖国亲人之间架起了一条全天候、零时差、无障碍的绿色通道,不管同胞们身处海外哪个角落,遇到什么困难,只要拨通这个电话,就能在第一时间得到外交部和驻外使领馆的帮助。12308开通仅仅半年,我们就接到了3万多通电话,很多同胞表示,有了这条热线,在国外更踏实了,感觉祖国随时就在身边。我们希望更多同胞知道这条热线,用好这条热线,有困难,请拨12308。
我们在签证便利化方面也取得了重要的进展。去年一年,我们又同24个国家签署了互免或者简化签证手续的协议,数量是前4年的总和。中国公民免签或者落地签的目的地已经达到了50多个国家和地区。大家可能对去年中美的签证互换安排印象最为深刻,也就是说两国公民办妥签证之后,5到10年之内,只要拿着护照,买张机票,就可以便捷地往来于太平洋两岸。我还要告诉大家的是,中国和加拿大刚刚就互发有效期最长为10年的签证达成了一致,明天就将实施。
in 2014, we also made important progress in visa facilitation.we signed visa exemption or simplification agreements with 24 countries, equal to the total of the previous four years.and nowadays, chinese citizens can visit more than 50 countries and territories without a visa or by obtaining a visa upon arrival.you may remember the reciprocal visa arrangement which china and the united states announced last year.it means that if a chinese or american person has a visa, then for up to five or even 10 years, he or she can travel easily between the two shores of the pacific ocean with just a passport and an air ticket.and let me tell you that china and canada have just reached agreement on issuing visas to each others citizens with a validity period of up to 10 years.this agreement will go into effect tomorrow.海外民生工程只有进行时,而没有完成时。“中国脚步”走到哪里,“中国保护”就会跟到哪里。我们会继续努力,进一步提高中国护照的“含金量”,让同胞们更直接地感受到作为中国人的尊严。我们会为大家出国创造更便利的条件,大家可以随时来一场“说走就走的旅行”,并且走得更顺利、更安全、更舒心。
新加坡《联合早报》记者:中方如何看待有人将“一带一路”比作“马歇尔计划”,或者称中方借拉紧周边经济纽带以谋求地缘政治和其他利益?
说古老,是因为“一带一路”传承着具有两千多年历史的古代丝绸之路精神,我们要把这条各国人民友好交往、互通有无的路走下去,并且让它焕发新的时代光芒。
说年轻,是因为“一带一路”诞生于全球化时代,是开放合作的产物,不是地缘政治的工具,更不能用过时的冷战思维去看待。
the belt and road initiative is younger because it is born in the era of globalization.it is a product of inclusive cooperation, not a tool of geopolitics, and must not be viewed with the outdated cold war mentality.在推进“一带一路”过程中,我们将坚持奉行“共商、共建、共享”原则,坚持平等协商,充分尊重各国的自主选择。我们将注重照顾各方舒适度,注重保持透明和开放,注重与各国发展战略的相互对接,注重与现有地区合作机制相辅相成。“一带一路”的理念是共同发展,目标是合作共赢。它不是中方一家的“独奏曲”,而是各国共同参与的“交响乐”。
今日俄罗斯通讯社记者:在西方对俄罗斯实施制裁、卢布大幅贬值背景下,中国将如何与俄罗斯开展合作,特别是推进能源、金融等领域合作?中俄如何进一步加强在国际事务中的协调配合?
russia today news agency: against the background of western sanctions on russia and the sharp depreciation of the ruble, how will china carry out cooperation with russia, especially in the energy and financial sectors? and what will china and russia do to further strengthen their coordination and cooperation in international affairs? 王毅:中俄关系不受国际风云影响,也不针对任何第三方。由于中俄双方已经建立起牢固的战略互信,两国关系更趋成熟、稳定。作为全面战略协作伙伴,中俄之间有着相互支持的好传统。两国人民的友谊也为加强战略合作提供了坚实的民意基础。
中俄务实合作是因为相互需要,秉持的是互利双赢,而且有着巨大内生动力和提升空间。今年,中俄务实合作有望取得一系列新成果。我们将力争实现双边贸易1000亿美元目标,签署丝绸之路经济带合作协议并启动对接,全面开工建设东线天然气管道并签署西线天篇三:2015外交部部长王毅答记者问中英文
2015年3月8日,十二届全国人大三次会议在两会新闻中心举行记者会,邀请外交部长王毅就中国外交政策和对外关系回答中外记者提问。
on 8 march 2015, the third session of the twelfth national peoples congress held a press conference at the press center of the two sessions.foreign minister wang yi was invited to answer questions from chinese and foreign media about chinas foreign policy and external relations.中华人民共和国外交部部长 王毅:记者朋友们,大家上午好。
今天是三八妇女节,首先我要向女记者们以及所有关心和支持中国外交的女同胞们致以诚挚的祝福。
wang yi: friends from the press, good morning.today is the international womens day.at the outset, i would like to extend sincere greetings to the female journalists and all chinese women who show understanding of and support for chinas diplomacy.记得去年也是今天,马航370航班失联。一年过去了,飞机还没有找到,但搜寻仍将继续。对于马航370航班的乘客家属,今天是艰难的一天,我们的心和大家在一起。马航已经启动了理赔的工作,我们愿意为每一位家属提供一切需要的服务,帮助大家维护好正当和合法的权益。现在我愿回答大家的问题。
人民日报记者:王外长您好,很高兴我第一个提问。您曾经说过2014年是中国外交全面推进的丰收之年,请问这个丰收之年具体体现在哪些方面?另外,2015年的中国外交有哪些值得期待的看点和关键词?谢谢。
peoples daily: mr.minister, you once said that 2014 was a year of harvest and all-round progress in chinas diplomacy.could you elaborate on that? and what can we expect from chinas diplomacy in 2015? what are the keywords we need to watch? 王毅:2014年的中国外交确实是丰收之年,同时也是开拓之年、创新之年。在以习近平同志为核心的党中央领导下,我们成功举办上海亚信峰会和北京apec两大主场外交,在历史上留下了深刻的中国印记。我们积极参与全球热点问题的解决,在国际和地区事务当中发挥了中国作用。wang yi: indeed, 2014 was a year of harvest for chinas diplomacy.it was also a year of forging ahead and breaking new ground.hot-spot issues, and played chinas role in international and regional affairs.我们大力拓展对外合作,“一带一路”倡议得到了广泛的响应。特别值得一提的是,我们着眼于构建以合作共赢为核心的新型国际关系,正在走出一条结伴而不结盟的对外交往新路。we made energetic efforts to expand external cooperation, and our initiative to establish a silk road economic belt and a 21st century maritime silk road won support from a lot of countries.it is particularly worth mentioning that focusing on building a new type of international relations featuring win-win cooperation, we are taking a new path of external relations characterized by partnership rather than alliance.到去年年底,我们已经同70多个国家和诸多的地区组织建立了不同形式的伙伴关系,基本形成覆盖全球的伙伴关系网络。中国的“朋友圈”越来越大,我们的好朋友、好伙伴越来越多。
by the end of last year, we had established different forms of partnerships with over 70 countries and a number of regional organizations, and basically established a global network of partnerships.one can say that chinas circle of friends and partners has widened and will continue to expand.2015年,我们将保持进取势头,拓展全方位外交,在坚定维护国家利益的同时,不断扩大与世界各国的共同利益。
2015年中国外交的关键词是“一个重点、两条主线”。一个重点就是全面推进“一带一路”。我们将进一步加强与各国的政策沟通,不断扩大彼此利益契合点。我们会探讨互利合作的有效途径,重点推动互联互通基础设施、陆上经济走廊、海上合作支点的建设。我们还愿意促进人文交流合作,加快自贸谈判进程。
the keywords for chinas diplomacy in 2015 will be one focus and two main themes.我们相信,“一带一路”必将更加深入人心,取得更多的早期收获,助力亚欧大陆实现整体振兴。两条主线就是要做好和平与发展这两篇大文章。我们将同国
际社会一道,办好世界反法西斯战争胜利70周年纪念活动,以史为鉴,开辟未来,使中国成为维护和平的强大力量。
we are confident that the belt and road initiative will win even more support and deliver even more early harvests, so as to catalyze the revitalization of the eurasian continent as a whole.我们还将以纪念联合国成立70周年为契机,积极参与联合国发展峰会和国际气候变化合作,推动制定符合广大发展中国家利益的2015后发展议程和新的应对气候变化安排,发挥中国的建设性作用。谢谢!
the 70th anniversary of the founding of the united nations will be a good opportunity for us to take an active part in the uns development summit and international cooperation on climate change.we will play a constructive role in helping to secure a post-2015 development agenda and a new international regime for addressing climate change that are in the interests of developing countries.北京新京报记者:我们注意到,近年来中国公民出境人数不断攀升,而今年春节又掀起一股出国旅游热潮。请问,在便利公民出行和保护他们在海外正当权益方面今年外交部会有怎样的计划或者举措?谢谢。
beijing news: in recent years, more and more chinese citizens have made outbound visits, and we see a good example of that during the just passed chinese new year.what will the chinese foreign ministry do to facilitate the outbound visits of chinese citizens and protect their legitimate rights and interests overseas? 王毅:去年,中国公民出境首次突破了1亿人次,成为海外最大的流动群体。此外,我们还有2万多家中国企业,还有数百万中国同胞生活和工作在世界各地。所以说海外维权任务之重前所未有,责任之大也前所未有。我们始终把每一位同胞的安危冷暖放在心头,千方百计地推进海外民生工程。
去年外交部设立了全球领事保护应急呼叫中心12308热线,为海外游子与祖国亲人之间架起了一条全天候、零时差、无障碍的绿色通道,不管同胞们身处海外哪个角落,遇到什么困难,只要拨通这个电话,就能在第一时间得到外交部和驻外使领馆的帮助。12308开通仅仅半年,我们就接到了3万多通电话,很
多同胞表示,有了这条热线,在国外更踏实了,感觉祖国随时就在身边。我们希望更多同胞知道这条热线,用好这条热线,有困难,请拨12308。
我们在签证便利化方面也取得了重要的进展。去年一年,我们又同24个国家签署了互免或者简化签证手续的协议,数量是前4年的总和。中国公民免签或者落地签的目的地已经达到了50多个国家和地区。大家可能对去年中美的签证互换安排印象最为深刻,也就是说两国公民办妥签证之后,5到10年之内,只要拿着护照,买张机票,就可以便捷地往来于太平洋两岸。我还要告诉大家的是,中国和加拿大刚刚就互发有效期最长为10年的签证达成了一致,明天就将实施。
in 2014, we also made important progress in visa facilitation.we signed visa exemption or simplification agreements with 24 countries, equal to the total of the previous four years.and nowadays, chinese citizens can visit more than 50 countries and territories without a visa or by obtaining a visa upon arrival.you may remember the reciprocal visa arrangement which china and the united states announced last year.it means that if a chinese or american person has a visa, then for up to five or even 10 years, he or she can travel easily between the two shores of the pacific ocean with just a passport and an air ticket.and let me tell you that china and canada have just reached agreement on issuing visas to each others citizens with a validity period of up to 10 years.this agreement will go into effect tomorrow.海外民生工程只有进行时,而没有完成时。“中国脚步”走到哪里,“中国保护”就会跟到哪里。我们会继续努力,进一步提高中国护照的“含金量”,让同胞们更直接地感受到作为中国人的尊严。我们会为大家出国创造更便利的条件,大家可以随时来一场“说走就走的旅行”,并且走得更顺利、更安全、更舒心。
新加坡《联合早报》记者:中方如何看待有人将“一带一路”比作“马歇尔计划”,或者称中方借拉紧周边经济纽带以谋求地缘政治和其他利益?
王毅:“一带一路”比“马歇尔计划”既古老得多,又年轻得多,两者不可同日而语。
说古老,是因为“一带一路”传承着具有两千多年历史的古代丝绸之路精神,我们要把这条各国人民友好交往、互通有无的路走下去,并且让它焕发新的时代光芒。
说年轻,是因为“一带一路”诞生于全球化时代,是开放合作的产物,不是地缘政治的工具,更不能用过时的冷战思维去看待。
the belt and road initiative is younger because it is born in the era of globalization.it is a product of inclusive cooperation, not a tool of geopolitics, and must not be viewed with the outdated cold war mentality.在推进“一带一路”过程中,我们将坚持奉行“共商、共建、共享”原则,坚持平等协商,充分尊重各国的自主选择。我们将注重照顾各方舒适度,注重保持透明和开放,注重与各国发展战略的相互对接,注重与现有地区合作机制相辅相成。“一带一路”的理念是共同发展,目标是合作共赢。它不是中方一家的“独奏曲”,而是各国共同参与的“交响乐”。
第三篇:2016王毅部长答记者问,中英对照
外交部长王毅就中国外交政策和对外关系回答中外记者提问 Foreign Minister Wang Yi Meets the Press
2016年3月8日,十二届全国人大四次会议在两会新闻中心举行记者会,邀请外交部长王毅就中国外交政策和对外关系回答中外记者提问。
On 8 March 2016, the Fourth Session of the Twelfth National People’s Congress held a press conference.Foreign Minister Wang Yi was invited to answer questions on China’s foreign policy and external relations.王毅:新闻界的朋友们,大家上午好。首先感谢大家对外交工作的关心、理解和支持,也要对今天在座的女记者、女同胞们致以节日的祝福。现在,我愿回答大家的问题。
Wang Yi: Friends from the media, good morning.At the outset, I wish to thank you for your care, understanding and support for China’s diplomacy.I also want to extend festive greetings to all the ladies in this room, including the female journalists.Now, I am ready to answer your questions.中央电视台记者:今年9月,中国将首次举行二十国集团(G20)峰会。G20杭州峰会将提出什么主张?
CCTV: In September, China will host the G20 Summit for the first time.What proposals will China put forward at the Hangzhou Summit?
王毅:第一个问题就问到G20峰会,表明大家对中国主办峰会的高度期待。这次杭州G20峰会是中国今年最重要的主场外交,也是全球最受瞩目的经济盛会。
Wang Yi: This is the first question, and you are asking about the G20 Summit.It shows people have high expectations for China’s G20 presidency.Indeed, the G20 Hangzhou Summit, the most important international conference that China will host this year, is the world’s most closely watched economic summit.这些年来,G20峰会为应对国际金融危机发挥了关键作用。现在,世界经济又到了一个转折点,如何摆脱长期低迷不振?能否找到新的增长动力?如何有效协调各国政策?国际社会正在把目光转向中国。习近平主席向世界清楚阐明了中方办会的宏观思路。我们愿在全面推进各项议题的同时,着力从三个新角度寻求峰会的突破:一是以创新发掘新动力,二是以改革注入新活力,三是以发展开辟新前景。
In the past few years, the G20 Summit has played a critical role in containing the global financial crisis.This time, the world economy has reached another crossroads.How to emerge from long-term economic sluggishness? How to find new sources of growth? And how to coordinate national policies more effectively? The world is turning its eyes to China.President Xi Jinping has clearly articulated China’s basic approach to hosting the G20 Summit.While making solid preparations on all the topics, we will try to break new ground from three angles.First, we want to discover new sources of growth through innovation.Second, we want to inject new momentum into the world economy through reform.And third, we want to open up new prospects through development.我们首次把创新增长作为重点议题,期待以新工业革命、数字经济等为契机,制定世界经济创新增长的新蓝图。
For the first time, we will make innovative growth a key topic on the G20 agenda.We want to capitalize on the new industrial revolution and digital economy, and develop a new blueprint for the innovative growth of the world economy.我们强调结构性改革的重要性,推动主要经济体就此达成新的共识,合力把世界经济拉上强劲复苏之路。We will stress the importance of structural reform and encourage the major economies to build new consensus around this, so as to work together to put the world economy on the path to strong recovery.我们把发展问题放在宏观政策协调突出位置,推动G20成员率先制定落实联合国2030年可持续发展议程的行动计划,带动全球范围的包容、联动发展。
And we will prioritize development issues in macro policy coordination.We will encourage G20 members to show leadership by developing action plans to implement the UN’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, so as to catalyze inclusive and interconnected development all over the world.我相信,这次峰会一定能开成一次提振信心的会议,凝聚共识的会议,指引方向的会议。让G20从杭州再出发,让世界经济从中国再出发。
I am confident that the G20 Hangzhou Summit will boost people’s confidence, build consensus and point the way forward.Hangzhou will be a new launch pad for the G20, and China will be a new launch pad for the world economy.韩国广播公司记者:中方如何确保联合国安理会新对朝决议得到有效执行?如何界定民生和非民生的范畴?
KBS: How will China make sure that the new UN Security Council resolution on the DPRK will be implemented effectively? Where to draw the line between ―livelihood‖ and ―non-livelihood‖ purposes?
王毅:中国作为安理会常任理事国,有责任也有能力执行好安理会决议,包括第2270号涉朝决议。Wang Yi: China is a permanent member of the Security Council.We have the obligation and capability to implement all the resolutions passed by the Security Council, including Resolution 2270 concerning the DPRK.对民生的概念,各方应有共识。当然,中方在执行过程中,会本着客观公正态度,对此进行必要评估、认定和监督。我要指出的是,第2270号决议不光有制裁,还重申支持六方会谈,要求不采取任何可能加剧局势紧张的行动。鉴此,中方认为,第2270号决议需要全面、完整加以执行。制裁是必要手段,维稳是当务之急,谈判是根本之道。
You mentioned the term ―livelihood‖: I think people would agree what it means.Of course, China will adopt an objective and impartial attitude during implementation and carry out necessary evaluation, determination and monitoring.I wish to point out that Resolution 2270 not just contains sanctions;it also reiterates support for the Six-Party Talks and asks the parties to refrain from taking any actions that might aggravate tensions.So in China’s view, the resolution must be implemented in its entirety.Sanctions are just a necessary means.Maintaining stability is the pressing priority, and only negotiation can lead to a fundamental solution.目前半岛局势剑拔弩张,充满火药味儿。如果紧张加剧甚至失控,对各方都将是灾难。作为半岛最大邻国,中方不会坐视半岛稳定受到根本破坏,不会坐视中国安全利益受到无端损害。我们强烈敦促各方理性克制,不要再激化矛盾。
At the moment, there is some saber-rattling on the Korean Peninsula, and the situation is highly charged.If the tensions worsen and get out of control, it would be a disaster for all parties.As the largest neighbor of the Peninsula, China will not sit by and see a fundamental disruption to stability on the Peninsula.And we will not sit by and see unwarranted damage to China’s security interests.We strongly urge the parties to act with reason and restraint, and refrain from aggravating tensions.半岛问题的最终解决,要综合施策,对症下药。一味迷信制裁和施压,实际上是对半岛的未来不负责任。为此,中方提出实现半岛无核化与停和机制转换并行推进的谈判思路。无核化是国际社会的坚定目标,停和机制转换是朝鲜的合理关切,两者并行谈判,分步推进,统筹解决,既公平合理,又切实可行。对于其他各方提出的设想,包括以灵活方式开展三方、四方甚至五方接触等,只要有利于把半岛核问题拉回谈判桌,我们都持开放态度。
To eventually resolve the issues on the Peninsula, we have to adopt a multi-pronged approach and apply the right medicine.To have blind faith in sanctions and pressure would, in effect, be irresponsible to the future of the Peninsula.In terms of negotiation, China has put forward a proposal to pursue, in parallel tracks, the denuclearization of the Peninsula and the replacement of the armistice agreement with a peace treaty.Denuclearization is the firm goal of the international community, while replacing the armistice is a legitimate concern of the DPRK.The two can be negotiated in parallel, implemented in steps and resolved with reference to each other.In our judgment, this is an equitable, reasonable and workable solution.Other parties have also suggested some ideas, including flexible contacts in a three-party, four-party or even five-party format.We are open to any and all initiatives that can help bring the nuclear issue on the Peninsula back to the negotiating table.《人民日报》记者:您如何评价三年来的中国外交?未来中国外交还能给人带来什么期待?
People’s Daily: How do you rate China’s diplomacy in the last three years? What more can we expect from China’s diplomacy going forward?
王毅:十八大以来,在以习近平同志为核心的党中央领导下,中国外交在继承传统基础上积极进取,开拓前行。总书记深刻把握国内外大势,提出一系列新理念、新思路和新举措,指明了中国外交前进的方向。春华秋实,三年有成。我们正在走出一条有中国特色的大国外交之路。
Wang Yi: Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and under the leadership of the CPC Central Committee headed by General Secretary Xi Jinping, we have built on China’s diplomatic tradition, made active efforts and broken new ground.Based on his keen grasp of the domestic and international situation, General Secretary Xi has put forward a whole series of new thinking, new ideas and new steps and pointed the way forward for China’s diplomacy.Three years is a good time to take stock of what we have achieved.Simply put, we are on the path of pursuing major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics.中国特色大国外交的努力目标是助力民族复兴的―中国梦‖和建设人类命运共同体。战略选择是坚持自身和平发展,同时推动世界的和平发展。基本原则是合作共赢,构建以合作共赢为核心的新型国际关系。主要路径是建立形式多样的伙伴关系,倡导结伴而不结盟,对话而不对抗。价值取向是坚持正确义利观,在国际事务中主持公道,弘扬正义,在国家关系中义利兼顾,以义为先。
Our goal is to help realize the Chinese Dream of national rejuvenation and build a community of shared destiny for all mankind.The strategic choice is to strive for peaceful development both at home and in the world.The basic principle is to seek win-win cooperation and, on that basis, build a new type of international relations.The main pathway is to establish various types of partnerships and choose partnership over alliance, dialogue over confrontation.The value we insist on is to adopt a balanced approach to friendship and interests, uphold justice in international affairs and put friendship before interests in state-to-state relations.总书记在2016年新年贺词中说,―世界那么大,问题那么多,国际社会期待听到中国声音、看到中国方案,中国不能缺席‖。我们将以习总书记的外交思想为指导,按照党中央、国务院的部署,在实现自身发展目标进程中,以更宽阔视野、更开放胸襟、更积极姿态,同国际社会一道,为世界的和平稳定尽责,为人类的繁荣进步出力。
In his New Year message, General Secretary Xi said, ―The world is so big and faces so many problems.The international community wishes to hear China’s voice and see China’s solutions.China cannot be absent.‖ We will go forward, guided by General Secretary Xi’s diplomatic thinking and the arrangements made by the CPC Central Committee and the State Council.In the course of realizing China’s development goals, we will embrace a broader horizon, a more open attitude and a more active posture.We will work with the international community and contribute our share to peace and stability of the world and to prosperity and progress of mankind.路透社记者:中国为什么不允许外国记者访问南海岛礁?中国南海岛礁建设目的是什么?
The Reuters: Why doesn’t China allow foreign journalists to visit its South China Sea islands and reefs? What is the purpose of China’s construction on the islands and reefs?
王毅:南沙群岛是中国的固有领土,只要是炎黄子孙,都守土有责。中国从来没有也不会提出新的领土要求。
Wang Yi: The Nansha Islands are China’s integral territory.Every Chinese has an obligation to defend them.China has not and will not make any new territorial claims.中国在自己的岛礁上建设防御设施,是履行国际法赋予的自保权。中国不是在南沙最早部署武器的国家,也不是部署武器最多的国家,更不是军事活动最频繁的国家,―军事化‖这顶帽子扣不到中国头上,有更合适的国家可以戴。
In building defense facilities on our own islands and reefs, China is exercising its right to self-preservation under international law.China is not the first country to have deployed weapons in the Nansha, we are not the country that has deployed the most weapons, and we are not the country that conducts the most frequent military activities.China cannot be accused of ―militarization‖;the label is more suited to some other countries.中国在南海岛礁上建设的不仅是必要防御设施,更多的是民用设施,是向国际社会提供公共产品。等设施建设完成,具备条件后,我们会考虑邀请外国记者去参观访问。
In addition to building necessary defense facilities on the Nansha and more importantly, China is building civilian facilities to provide public goods to the international community.When the construction is completed and the condition is ripe, we will consider inviting foreign journalists to visit the islands and reefs.作为南海最大沿岸国,中国最希望维护南海的航行自由。在中国和本地区国家共同努力下,南海现在是世界上最自由和安全的航道之一。我想在这里提醒的是,航行自由不等于横行自由。如果有人想把南海搅浑,把亚洲搞乱,中国不会答应,本地区绝大多数国家也不会允许。
China is the largest country bordering the South China Sea, so we hope, more than any other country, to uphold the freedom of navigation in the South China Sea.Thanks to the concerted efforts of China and other regional countries, it is one of the freest and safest sea lanes in the world.I want to remind some people that the freedom of navigation does not give them a license to do whatever they want.If someone wants to muddy the waters or to destabilize Asia, China will not agree to it and the overwhelming majority of countries in the region will not allow it to happen.中国一直在为南海和平稳定做出各种努力。我们专门设立了中国—东盟海上合作基金,陆续开展了40多个合作项目。我们积极推进―南海行为准则‖的磋商,已形成两份共识文件,进入商谈―重要和复杂问题‖新阶段。我们主动提出制定―海上风险管控预防性措施‖,尤其是提出设立―海上紧急事态外交热线‖和―海上联合搜救热线‖,充分展示了我们的诚意。尽管这些努力一直受到个别国家的干扰阻挠,但是,中国完全有能力,也有信心与东盟国家一道,确保南海的和平发展大局。
The fact is, China has made various efforts to promote peace and stability in the South China Sea.We have set up a China-ASEAN Maritime Cooperation Fund, which has supported over 40 cooperation projects.We are actively advancing the COC consultation: The parties have reached two Lists of Commonalities and entered into the phase of discussing crucial and complex issues.We have initiated to formulate preventive measures for managing maritime risks.And we have offered to set up the maritime emergency diplomatic hotline and the maritime joint search and rescue hotline.These initiatives speak volumes about our sincerity, but they’ve been obstructed by certain individual countries.Yet China has every capability and confidence to work with ASEAN countries to maintain the overall picture of peace and development in the South China Sea.凤凰卫视记者:据报道,中国将很快开始在吉布提建设后勤保障设施。中国如何维护不断扩展的海外利益?
Phoenix Satellite TV: It is reported that China will soon build a logistics center in Djibouti.How will China protect its ever-growing overseas interests?
王毅:你刚才提到中国海外利益的扩展,我认为抓到了问题的关键。
Wang Yi: You mentioned China’s growing overseas interests.I think it is the key to understanding the matter.同任何成长中的大国一样,中国的利益也在不断向海外延伸。目前已有3万家中国企业遍布世界各地,数百万中国人工作生活在全球各个角落,去年非金融类对外直接投资达到1180亿美元,中国海外资产积累已达数万亿美元。中国外交的一项紧迫任务,就是维护好不断增长的海外利益。
Like any major country that is growing, China’s overseas interests are expanding.At present, there are 30,000 Chinese businesses all over the world and several million Chinese are working and living in all corners of the world.Last year, China’s non-financial outbound direct investment reached 118 billion dollars and the stock of China’s overseas assets reached several trillion dollars.So it has become a pressing task for China’s diplomacy to better protect our ever-growing overseas interests.如何来维护?我愿明确地告诉大家,中国绝不走传统大国的扩张老路,也不会搞任何强权政治。我们要探索一条符合时代潮流,得到各方欢迎,具有中国特色的维权之路。
How to do it? Let me state on the record that China will not take the old path of expansionism followed by traditional powers, and we will not engage in any form of power politics.Rather, we want to pioneer a uniquely Chinese way to protect our overseas interests, one that is in tune with the trend of the times and welcomed by the other parties.首先,我们愿承担更多的国际安全义务。2008年起中国海军就参与索马里海域护航,迄今已派出22批舰艇编队,为中外6000多艘船只护航。中国已成为安理会五常中派出维和人员最多的国家,中国贡献的维和经费已上升到世界第二位。
First, China is willing to take on more international security responsibilities.Since 2008, Chinese navy has conducted escort missions off the Somali coast.So far, we have dispatched 22 fleets to escort over 6,000 Chinese and foreign ships passing through those waters.China is the biggest contributor of peacekeeping personnel among the five permanent members of the Security Council.We are also the second largest contributor to the UN peacekeeping budget.二是根据客观需要,响应当事国的愿望,在涉及中国利益集中的地区,尝试进行一些必要的基础设施和保障能力建设。这不仅合情合理,也符合国际惯例。
Second, responding to actual needs and the wishes of the countries in question, we are trying to build some necessary infrastructure and logistical capacities in regions with a concentration of Chinese interests.This is not just reasonable and logical, but also consistent with international practice.三是与世界各国深化互利合作,包括执法安全合作,建设性参与国际地区热点问题的政治解决,从而为中国在海外发展营造更为安全稳定的环境。
And third, we want to deepen mutually beneficial cooperation with other countries, including law enforcement and security cooperation.At the same time, we will play a constructive role in the political settlement of international and regional issues, so as to create a more secure and stable environment for China’s development overseas.美国有线电视新闻网记者:菲律宾提起的南海仲裁案可能作出不利于中国的判决。中方是否感到忧虑?打算怎样应对?
CNN: The ruling from the arbitration initiated by the Philippines may be against China.Is China worried and how will China respond to it?
王毅:中国政府早在2006年,就依据《联合国海洋法公约》第298条赋予的权利,作出排除强制性仲裁的政府声明。作出类似声明的,全球有30多个国家,这些排除性声明一并构成《公约》不可分割的组成部分,应得到各方尊重。因此,中国不接受南海仲裁案,完全是在依法行事。而菲律宾的做法,恰恰是一不合法,二不守信,三不讲理。不仅违背了在中菲双边协议中做出的承诺,违背了《南海各方行为宣言》第四款的规定,也违背了提出仲裁应由当事方协商的国际实践。菲律宾的一意孤行,显然有幕后指使和政治操作。对于这样一场走了调、变了味的所谓仲裁,中方恕不奉陪。
Wang Yi: Back in 2006, the Chinese government exercised its right under Article 298 of UNCLOS and made a declaration that excludes compulsory arbitration.More than 30 other countries have made similar declarations.They are an integral part of UNCLOS and must be respected by others.So, by not accepting the arbitration case, China is acting entirely in accordance with the law.The Philippines’ action, on the other hand, is unlawful, unfaithful and unreasonable.It has violated its own commitments in bilateral agreements with China, breached Article 4 of the DOC and broken with international practice that arbitration has to be mutually agreed.Its stubbornness is clearly the result of behind-the-scenes instigation and political maneuvering.This so-called arbitration has become tainted and gone astray, and China is not going to humor it.中国最早发现、命名、开发、管辖南海诸岛。我们的先人在这里世代耕耘、辛勤劳作。我们比任何人都熟悉和热爱这个地方,比任何人都希望南海和平稳定、航行自由。
China was the first country to discover, name, develop and administer the South China Sea islands.Our ancestors lived and worked there for generations, so we know and love the place more than anyone else.And more than anyone else, we want to uphold peace, stability and freedom of navigation in the South China Sea.在南海这一舞台上,曾有过殖民侵略,有过非法侵占,现在又有人兴风作浪,还有人炫耀武力。但是,就像潮水来了又退去一样,这些图谋最终都不会有结果。
Over the years, the South China Sea has seen colonial invasion and illegal occupation.Now, some people are trying to make waves, some others are showing off force.However, like the tide that comes and goes, these attempts will not make any impact.历史终将证明,谁只是匆匆过客,谁才是真正主人。History will prove who is a mere visitor and who is the real host.《环球时报》记者:中国是否还把朝鲜当成盟国?如果半岛发生战争,中国是否会再来一次―抗美援朝‖?
The Global Times: Does China still see the DPRK as an ally? Should war ever break out on the Korean Peninsula, will China fight the United States and assist the DPRK like it did during the Korean War?
王毅:中国和朝鲜半岛山水相连,休戚与共。中朝关系是有着深厚友好传统的国与国之间的正常关系。
Wang Yi: China and the Korean Peninsula are linked by common mountains and rivers;we have gone through thick and thin together.Nowadays, China and the DPRK enjoy a normal state-to-state relationship built on a deep tradition of friendship.中国既重情义,也讲原则。我们珍视同朝鲜的传统友好,朝鲜要谋发展、求安全,我们愿意支持帮助。但同时,我们坚持半岛无核化的立场毫不含糊,对朝方推进核、导计划的做法不会迁就。应当清楚地看到:无核才能和平,对话才是出路,合作才能共赢。
China both values friendship and stands on principle.We cherish our traditional bonds with the DPRK.If the country seeks development and security, we are prepared to help and provide support.But at the same time, we have an unwavering commitment to the denuclearization of the Peninsula and we will not accommodate the DPRK’s pursuit of nuclear and missile programs.One should see very clearly that only denuclearization can bring peace, only dialogue can provide the way out and only cooperation can bring win-win outcomes.新加坡《联合早报》记者:中国带头倡议亚投行,对外输出大型基础设施,目的是否是从根本上修改国际秩序?
Lianhe Zaobao: China initiated the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and is helping other countries build large-scale infrastructure.Is it China’s goal to overhaul the international order?
王毅:中国对外交往更加活跃,国际地位不断增强。尤其是去年,中国在国际体系中的制度性权力得到显著提升。我们在国际货币基金组织中的份额和投票权升至第三位,人民币加入特别提款权货币篮子,中国成为欧洲复兴开发银行成员,中国对联合国的贡献综合评估已达到第二位。这些事实恰恰说明,中国并没有另起炉灶,而是努力在现有国际秩序和体系中发挥更多作用。当然,随着中国国力的增强,我们需要合理的发展空间,获得相应的国际话语权。这也是一件正常的事情。
Wang Yi: China has become more active in its external relations and China’s international standing has been on the rise.Last year saw a notable enhancement of China’s power in international institutions.We now have the third largest quota and voting power in the IMF, the Renminbi has been included in the SDR basket, and China has become a member of the EBRD.Overall, China makes the second biggest contribution to the United Nations.These facts illustrate that China is not building a rival system.On the contrary, we are seeking to play a bigger role in the existing international order and system.Of course, as China grows in strength, we need reasonable development space and gain corresponding say in international affairs.This is something quite normal.至于中国倡导的亚投行和中方参与的金砖银行,都是对现有金融体系的完善和补充。中国有信心走出一条与传统大国不同的强国之路。不同在什么地方?集中体现在中国恪守联合国宪章的宗旨原则,不搞恃强凌弱;中国追求和世界各国的合作共赢,不搞零和博弈。

CRI: There is a growing strategic contest between China and the United States in the Asia-Pacific.The presidential election in the United States this year creates added uncertainties.How does China view the prospect of China-US relations? Are you confident in building the new model of major-country relations?
王毅:中美作为两个大国,既有合作,也有摩擦,可能是个常态。今天早上我刚听到一个消息,美国对中国的企业进行贸易限制。这不是处理经贸矛盾的正确做法,损人不利己。我们的工作,就是直面和解决问题,扩大和深化合作,同时努力把摩擦也变成合作。过去双方在气候变化上有分歧,去年中美共同促成了巴黎气变大会的成功。前一段网络是摩擦,现在双方建立起一整套对话合作机制。最近海上问题的摩擦多了起来,但我相信,等到美国真正冷静下来后,双方完全可以更多考虑如何开展海上合作。摩擦的根源是美国总有一些人对中国抱有战略疑虑,总是担心中国有一天会取代美国。我要强调的是,中国不是美国,中国决不会也不可能成为另一个美国。我们无意取代或领导谁。建议美国朋友更多学习体会一下中国5000年积淀的历史文化传统,不要动辄套用美式思维来判断中国。想清楚了这一点,中美关系的前景就会豁然开朗。
Wang Yi: China and the United States are two major countries.There is both cooperation and friction between us.This might be the normal state of affairs.This morning, I’ve just heard news that the United States has announced trade restrictions on a Chinese company.We don’t think it’s the right way to handle economic and trade disputes.This approach will only hurt others without necessarily benefiting oneself.In the face of problems, our task is to resolve them.We want to expand and deepen cooperation and, at the same time, work hard to turn friction into cooperation.In the past, the two countries had friction in the area of climate change.Yet last year, we worked together to ensure the success of the Paris Conference.In the recent period, cybersecurity was a point of friction.But we’ve set up a number of dialogue and cooperation mechanisms.More recently, there is growing friction concerning maritime issues.But I think when the US truly cools down, it’s entirely possible for us to consider conducting maritime cooperation.The source of these frictions is that there are always some people in the United States who have strategic suspicions about China.They are worried that China will one day supersede the United States.I want to emphasize once again that China is not the United States, and China will not and cannot become another United States.We have no intention to displace anybody or dominate anybody.My advice to American friends: Perhaps you may want to spend more time learning about China’s cultural tradition distilled from its 5,000-year history, and don’t always judge China with the American mindset.Get this right, and you’ll see the bright prospects of China-US relations.习近平主席多次指出,中美合作可以办成很多有利于两国和世界的大事。总结中美关系走过的风风雨雨,还是构建不冲突不对抗、相互尊重、合作共赢的新型大国关系这条路,符合双方的共同和长远利益,也顺应世界发展变化的潮流。我们希望,不管美国的政府和领导人如何更替,美方都能和中方一起,沿着这个正确的方向坚定走下去。
President Xi has pointed out time and again that when China and the United States work together, we can accomplish great things that benefit our two countries and the whole world.Having gone through a lot in our relationship, we have now embarked on efforts to build a new model of major-country relations featuring no conflict or confrontation, mutual respect and win-win cooperation.This serves the shared and long-term interests of both sides, and conforms to the trend of the world.It is our hope that the change of government and leaders in the United States notwithstanding, the US side will work with China to take determined steps in the right direction.俄通—塔斯社记者:当前复杂国际形势下,俄中全面战略协作伙伴关系是否面临挑战? ITAR-TASS: Does the complex international situation present challenges for the Russia-China comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination?
王毅:中俄关系是成熟、稳定的。我们的全面战略协作伙伴关系建立在相互信任、相互支持的牢固基础上,也有着加强合作、互利双赢的巨大需求,完全经得起任何国际风云的检验,不会因一时一事而改变。去年一年,习近平主席就和普京总统会晤了5次,为中俄关系保持发展势头发挥了重要引领作用。两国间的大项目合作在积极有序推进,东线天然气管道已开工建设,产能和装备制造、农业、财金等领域合作也在提速。
Wang Yi: China-Russia relations are mature and stable.Our comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination is built on a solid foundation of mutual trust and mutual support.The two sides have a strong desire to strengthen win-win cooperation.The relationship can pass the test of any international development and will not be weakened by any particular incident.In 2015, President Xi and President Putin met five times and set the tone for the continued strong momentum in China-Russia relations.We are making active and orderly progress in various big projects.Construction has started on the eastern route of the natural gas pipeline.And our cooperation on industrial capacity, equipment manufacturing, agriculture, finance and so on is gathering pace.中俄经济互补性强,合作需求大,具有长期性和战略性,一些临时性因素不会也不可能影响中俄深化全方位合作的大趋势。
China and Russia have significant economic complementarities and a strong desire to work with each other.Our cooperation is long-term and strategic in nature.The temporary factors will not prevent China and Russia from deepening our all-round cooperation.今年是《中俄睦邻友好合作条约》签署15周年。我们愿大力弘扬条约确定的世代友好理念,把两国高水平的政治关系优势转化为更多务实合作成果,不断丰富全面战略协作伙伴关系的内涵。
This year marks the 15th anniversary of the signing of the China-Russia Treaty on Good-neighborliness, Friendship and Cooperation.We want to carry forward the vision of ever-lasting friendship set by the treaty, turn our strong political relations into more fruits of practical cooperation, and add new substance to the China-Russia comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination.《中国日报》记者:―一带一路‖取得了哪些进展?有人担心这是中国实力加快向外扩张的象征,您怎么看?
China Daily: What progress has the Belt and Road Initiative made? Some people see it as an indication of the rapid projection of Chinese power.How would you respond?
王毅:―一带一路‖倡议提出以来,已经取得显著进展。今天正好向大家晒一晒两年多来的成绩单。Wang Yi: Since the Belt and Road Initiative was first put forward more than two years ago, notable progress has been made.This is a good opportunity for me to share our scorecard with you.一是参与伙伴越来越多。目前已经有70多个国家和国际组织表达了合作意愿,30多个国家同我们签署了共建―一带一路‖合作协议。
First, more partners are signing up.To date, more than 70 countries and international organizations have expressed interest, and over 30 countries have signed agreements with us to jointly build the Belt and Road.二是金融支撑基本就位。中方发起的亚洲基础设施投资银行已经开业运营,丝路基金的首批投资项目也已正式启动。
Second, the financial architecture is basically in place.The China-initiated AIIB is up and running, and the first group of projects financed by the Silk Road Fund have been launched.三是互联互通网络逐渐成形。以中巴、中蒙俄等经济走廊建设为标志,基础设施、金融、人文等领域取得一批重要早期收获。中欧班列贯通欧亚,匈塞铁路、雅万高铁开工建设,中老、中泰铁路等泛亚铁路网建设迈出重要步伐。
Third, a connectivity network is taking shape.Important early harvests have been achieved in the areas of infrastructure, finance and people-to-people exchange – most notably, the building of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor and the China-Mongolia-Russia Economic Corridor.Freight train services now link China directly to Europe.Construction has begun on the Budapest-Belgrade Railway and the Jakarta-Bandung High-speed Railway.Important steps have been taken in the China-Laos Railway and China-Thailand Railway, which are both important parts of the Pan-Asia Railway Network.四是产能合作全面推进。我们同近20个国家开展了机制化产能合作,开创了中国—哈萨克斯坦合作新模式,一大批重点项目已在各国落地生根。
And fourth, we are making all-round progress in industrial capacity cooperation.We have institutionalized such cooperation with almost 20 countries and created a new model of cooperation with Kazakhstan.A large number of key cooperation projects have been launched in various countries.―一带一路‖倡议是中国的,但机遇是世界的。提出这一倡议,顺应了亚欧大陆要发展、要合作的普遍呼声,标志着中国从一个国际体系的参与者快速转向公共产品的提供者。―一带一路‖秉持共商、共建、共享原则,奉行的不是―门罗主义‖,更不是扩张主义,而是开放主义。―一带一路‖带给未来世界的,一定是一幅亚欧大陆共同发展繁荣的新的历史画卷。
The Belt and Road Initiative is China’s idea, but its opportunities belong to the world.This initiative echoes the general call of Asian and European countries for development and cooperation.It shows that China is transitioning rapidly from a participant in the international system to a provider of public goods.In building the Belt and Road, we follow the principle of wide consultation, joint contribution and shared benefit.It is an open initiative, not the Monroe Doctrine or some expansionism.What it unfolds before the world will be a new historical painting of shared development and prosperity on the entire Eurasian continent.埃及《七日报》记者:今年初习近平主席在地区局势紧张的时候首访中东,这是否意味着中国正在调整中东政策?
Alyoum Alsabea: Early this year, President Xi Jinping made his first visit to the Middle East against the background of rising regional tensions.Does it signal a shift in China’s Middle East policy? 王毅:在中东事务上,中国从来都不是―看客‖。我们一直支持阿拉伯国家争取民族独立解放,与地区各国有着越来越密切的经贸联系,同时也在积极致力于中东的和平稳定。中国在中东不搞势力范围,也不寻求代理人。我们要做的,就是本着客观公正态度,着力劝和促谈,光明磊落、坦坦荡荡。这恰恰成为中国的优势所在,中东各国都欢迎和期待中国发挥更大的作用。
Wang Yi: When it comes to Middle East affairs, China has never been a mere onlooker.We have all along supported the Arab countries’ quest for independence and liberation, we enjoy ever closer economic and trade ties with the region, and we are contributing actively to peace and stability in the Middle East.China does not seek any sphere of influence in the Middle East, nor do we look for any proxy.Our approach is the opposite.We adopt an objective and impartial attitude, we try to facilitate peace talks, and our position is selfless and aboveboard.This is China’s unique strength.All the countries in the Middle East welcome and look to China to play a bigger role.今年年初,习近平主席首次出访就选择了中东,对沙特、埃及和伊朗三国成功进行历史性访问,开辟了中国与中东关系的新篇章。如果说中国的政策有哪些变化的话,那就是我们愿意在共建―一带一路‖框架下,更积极地和中东国家深化各领域互利合作。在坚持不干涉内政基础上,更积极地参与推动中东热点问题的政治解决。
At the start of this year, President Xi Jinping chose the Middle East for his first overseas trip.He made a historic visit to Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Iran, and opened a new chapter of relations between China and the Middle East.If there is any change in China’s policy toward the region, it is that in the context of building the Belt and Road, we want to play a more active role and deepen win-win cooperation with countries in the Middle East.And on the basis of not interfering in other countries’ internal affairs, we want to play a more active role in seeking the political settlement of burning issues in the region.《北京青年报》记者:中国公民走出国门的人数越来越多,海外风险也在加大,外交部将采取哪些措施保护海外中国公民和机构的安全?
Beijing Youth Daily: More and more Chinese citizens are traveling abroad.They are exposed to growing risks in foreign countries.What measures will the Foreign Ministry take to protect overseas Chinese citizens and institutions?
王毅:去年中国内地公民出境增长了近10%,突破1.2亿人次。中国公民出境旅游目的地国家和地区已达150多个,在海外的各类劳务人员超过100万,海外留学人员达到近200万。这一方面说明我们的国家快速发展,人民生活水平不断提高,但另一方面,也给海外领事保护工作带来巨大压力。坦率地讲,我们资源有限,手段不足,能力建设也亟待加强。
Wang Yi: Last year, mainland citizens made over 120 million overseas visits, a growth rate of almost 10 percent.Over 150 countries and territories have become destinations for Chinese tourists.There are over one million Chinese working abroad and close to two million Chinese studying abroad.This shows that our country is developing rapidly and the life of our people is getting better every day.On the other hand, it also puts enormous strain on consular protection.To be honest, our resources and tools are limited, and our capacity is not yet up to the task.但不管面对多大困难,本着外交为民的宗旨,我们都会尽心竭力,做好领事保护工作。仅过去一年,外交部和驻外使领馆就处理了8万多起领保案件,平均每天处理235起,每6分钟就有1起。其中12308领保热线累计接听十几万次电话,协助166个驻外使领馆处理了1.5万起案件。我们还成功解救了在海外被绑架的55位同胞,从陷入战火中的也门安全撤离613名同胞,从尼泊尔地震灾区接回6000多名同胞。说起民众关心的护照―含金量‖,去年一年我们又同18个国家达成了便利人员往来的安排。给予持普通护照的中国公民免签和落地签的国家和地区达到54个。当然,这个数字与大家的期待还有不小距离,我们的努力决不会放松。
Having said this, we will do everything in our power to provide consular protection, bearing in mind that diplomacy must serve the people.In the course of last year, the Foreign Ministry and our diplomatic and consular missions abroad handled over 80,000 consular cases, or 235 cases per day, one case every six minutes.The 12308 consular protection hotline received over 100,000 phone calls and helped 166 of our overseas missions handle 15,000 consular cases.We successfully rescued 55 Chinese who had been abducted abroad.We evacuated 613 Chinese from conflict-ridden Yemen and over 6,000 Chinese from quake-hit Nepal.I know people care a lot about the ―value‖ of the Chinese passport.Last year, we reached arrangements with another 18 countries to facilitate mutual travel.The number of countries and territories that give visa-free or visa-upon-landing treatment to ordinary Chinese citizens has reached 54.Of course, this figure still falls short of people’s expectations, but I can assure you that we will never relax our efforts.领保工作永远在路上。事先预防而非事后补救,才是最好的保护。预防性领保将是我们今后的方向,比如加强安全防范意识的普及、在有条件国家设立警民合作中心、聘用当地领保联络员等,要把领保工作关口向国外前移,缩短领保反应时间,提高工作效率。尽量把问题解决在当地,避免大规模转移带来不必要的损失。总之,人民的利益大于天。同胞走到哪里,我们的领事保护与服务就应跟随到哪里。我们将全力为大家撑起一把越来越牢固的保护伞。
Consular protection is never-ending work.The best approach is prevention beforehand rather than remedy afterwards.So we will focus more on preventive consular protection.For example, we will enhance the security awareness of our people and in countries where conditions allow, we will set up police-civilian cooperation centers and appoint local liaison officers for consular protection.We want to move the first line of consular protection to foreign countries, shorten the response time and make our work more efficient.We will try to solve problems locally so as to avoid the unnecessary cost associated with large-scale evacuation.In short, the interests of the people are paramount.Consular protection and service must go wherever our compatriots have gone.We will do our level best to put up an ever stronger umbrella for Chinese people abroad.日本《每日新闻》记者:请问您如何看待中日关系的现状?中日关系问题到底出在哪里,改善出路又在哪里?
Mainichi Shimbun: How do you see the current state of affairs in China-Japan relations? What is the underlying problem in the relationship and how can it be improved?
王毅:由于日方在历史等问题上的错误做法,这些年中日关系伤得不轻。尽管在双方有识之士努力下,两国关系出现了改善迹象,但前景仍不容乐观。因为日本政府和领导人一方面不断声称愿意改善日中关系,一方面又刻意到处给中国制造麻烦。这是一种典型的双面人的做法。
Wang Yi: Japan’s wrong approach to history and other issues in recent years has dealt a body blow to China-Japan relations.Thanks to the efforts of wise people on both sides, there are signs of improvement in the relationship, but I don’t see any grounds for optimism.On the one hand, the Japanese government and leaders say nice things about wanting to improve relations.On the other hand, they are making trouble for China at every turn.This is a typical case of double-dealing.中日两国比邻而居,隔海相望,两国人民也有着友好传统。我们当然希望中日关系能够真正好起来。但俗话讲,治病要断根。对于中日关系而言,病根就在于日本当政者的对华认知出了问题。面对中国的发展,究竟是把中国当作朋友还是敌人,当作伙伴还是对手?日方应认真想好这个问题,想透这个问题。
China and Japan are neighbors facing each other across the sea and there is a tradition of friendship between our people.Of course, we want to see real improvement in China-Japan relations.But as a saying goes, to cure a disease, you have to address the underlying problem.As far as China-Japan relations are concerned, the underlying problem is that some politicians in Japan have the wrong perception about China.Do they view a growing China as a friend or a foe, a partner or an adversary? The Japanese side needs to give serious thought to this question and make the right choice.新华社记者:过去一年欧洲国家和中国越走越近,您怎么看这种变化?
Xinhua News Agency: The past year saw closer relations between Europe and China.How do you see this change?
王毅:对欧外交是去年中国外交的一大亮点。尤其是习近平主席对英国进行―超级国事访问‖,掀起中欧合作的新高潮。我们同欧洲各国关系呈现竞相发展、相互促进的新态势。
Wang Yi: Diplomatic engagement with Europe was a highlight of China’s diplomacy last year.President Xi’s ―super‖ state visit to Britain created a new wave of China-Europe cooperation.As a result, you see the simultaneous and complementary development of relations between China and various European countries.中欧关系的积极变化不是一时之计,而是长远和必然的选择。中国始终把欧洲作为多极化进程中的重要一极,欧洲开始更加客观平和地看待中国的发展崛起。曾几何时,中欧之间摩擦不断,但尘埃落定之后,欧洲发现,中欧之间其实不会发生战略对抗,也没有根本利害冲突,相反合作需要越来越大,共同利益越来越多。当然,事物总是辩证的,中欧之间还会出现这样那样的问题,但彼此一定会越走越近,步伐也会越来越稳。
The positive change in China-Europe relations is not a temporary phenomenon;it is a long-term and inevitable choice.China has always regarded Europe an important pole in a multi-polar world, and Europe has come to view China’s development and rise in a more objective and sensible way.There was a time when China-Europe relations were beset by recurring frictions.But after the dust settled down, Europe has found that China and Europe are not headed for strategic rivalry and that there is no clash of fundamental interests between us.On the contrary, we have an increasing need for cooperation and a growing set of common interests.Of course, everything has two sides.Problems of one kind or another will arise in China-Europe relations.But I am sure the two sides will move closer to each other and our joint steps will be more steady.下一步,我们愿与欧洲切实推进和平、增长、改革、文明四大伙伴关系的建设。这是一个世纪工程,也是中欧双方对人类发展进步应做出的贡献。
Going forward, we want to make concrete efforts with Europe to advance our partnerships for peace, growth, reform and civilization.This is our shared commitment in the 21st century and the due contribution that China and Europe can make to the development and progress of mankind.柬埔寨《高棉日报》记者:3月下旬将举行澜沧江—湄公河合作首次领导人会议。中国将如何支持东盟的发展?
The Cambodia Daily: The first Lancang-Mekong River Cooperation Leaders’ Meeting will take place in late March.How will China support ASEAN’s development? 王毅:今年是中国和东盟建立对话关系的―银婚‖之年。25年来,中国与东盟关系经受了各种考验,合作取得了累累硕果。当前,中国和东盟关系又站在新的起点上。我们将进一步践行习近平主席提出的亲诚惠容周边外交理念,打造更加紧密的中国—东盟命运共同体。
Wang Yi: This year is, if you will, the ―silver wedding‖ anniversary of dialogue relations between China and ASEAN.For a quarter century, our relationship has stood all kinds of tests and our cooperation has borne rich fruits.Now the relationship has reached a new starting point.We will further follow President Xi’s guideline of amity, sincerity, mutual benefit and inclusiveness for dealing with our neighbors, and work hard to build an ever closer China-ASEAN community of common destiny.我们愿把东盟作为―一带一路‖合作的优先伙伴。建设好中老、中泰铁路和中国印尼雅万高铁等项目,以此为契机积极推动泛亚铁路网建设,让中国与东盟各国人民更加方便地相互往来。
We see ASEAN as a preferred partner in Belt and Road cooperation.We want to ensure the success of the China-Laos Railway, the China-Thailand Railway and the Jakarta-Bangdung High-speed Railway that China and Indonesia are building together.These are important building blocks of the Pan-Asian Railway Network.When they are completed, the people of China and ASEAN countries will find it easier to visit each other.我们愿把东盟作为对外自贸合作的优先伙伴。实施好中国—东盟自贸区升级版,给双方企业和人民带来更多实惠。积极推进区域全面经济伙伴关系协定(RCEP)谈判,力争年内完成。
ASEAN is our preferred partner in FTA cooperation.We want to ensure the success of the upgraded version of the China-ASEAN FTA, so as to bring more benefits to businesses and people on both sides.And we want to actively advance the RCEP negotiation and try to wrap it up before the end of the year.我们愿把东盟作为区域合作的优先伙伴。本月底,李克强总理将邀请澜沧江—湄公河流域所有国家,也就是越南、老挝、柬埔寨、缅甸、泰国的领导人齐聚海南,举行澜湄合作首次领导人会议。澜湄一江连六国。我们同饮一江水,命运紧相连。澜湄合作的特征是更接地气,更重效率。目前已有78个早期收获项目。澜湄合作是中国—东盟合作的有益补充,还可助力东盟的整体和均衡发展。
ASEAN is our preferred partner in regional cooperation.At the end of this month, Premier Li Keqiang will invite the leaders of all countries along the Lancang-Mekong River, namely Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar and Thailand, to gather in Hainan Province for the first Lancang-Mekong River Cooperation Leaders’ Meeting.The Lancang and Mekong connect all six countries.We drink from the same river, and our destinies are intertwined.What makes Lancang-Mekong River cooperation different is that it is more down-to-earth and more efficient.To date, we have prepared 78 early harvest items.Lancang-Mekong River cooperation is a useful supplement to China-ASEAN cooperation.It can help boost the holistic and balanced development of ASEAN.我们还愿把东盟作为海上合作的优先伙伴,用好中国—东盟海上合作基金,加强在海洋经济、海洋环保、海上安全等领域合作。同时也愿探讨建立南海沿岸国合作机制,把南海这个共同家园维护好,建设好。
ASEAN is also our preferred partner in maritime cooperation.We want to make good use of the China-ASEAN Maritime Cooperation Fund, and step up cooperation on the ocean economy, marine environmental protection and maritime security.In the meantime, we want to explore the possibility of establishing a South China Sea littoral states cooperation mechanism, and work together to maintain and build our common home, the South China Sea.中国新闻社记者:缅甸现政府任期将在3月底结束。中方对缅新政府有何期待?密松电站等项目的前景怎样?
China News Service: The term of the current government in Myanmar will end in late March.What is China’s expectation for the incoming government? What about the prospects of Myitsone Dam and other Chinese-invested projects?
王毅:中缅友好根植于两国人民心间,有着强大生命力,不会因缅甸国内形势变化而改变。我们对中缅关系的未来充满信心。
Wang Yi: China-Myanmar friendship is rooted in the heart of people on both sides;it is strong and dynamic.It will not be weakened by the changes in Myanmar’s domestic situation.We have every confidence about the future of China-Myanmar relations.昂山素季女士以及她领导的民盟与中国一直有友好交往,彼此了解和信任不断增加。我们对缅甸的未来同样充满信心。
Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and the NLD under her leadership have had longstanding friendly contacts with China;our mutual understanding and trust have been growing.So we also have every confidence about Myanmar’s future.中缅是搬不走的邻居。中国愿意帮助缅甸更好、更快发展起来。密松电站是一个商业合作项目,履行了完整审批手续。合作中遇到一些困难,是―成长中的烦恼‖,双方将继续积极妥善处理。我们对中缅互利合作的未来当然也充满信心。
China and Myanmar are neighbors and we will remain so forever.We would like to help Myanmar achieve better and faster development.The Myitsone Dam is a commercial project that has cleared all the approval procedures.There are some difficulties in the cooperation.These are ―growing pains‖ which the two sides will continue to manage in an active and appropriate way.So of course, we also have every confidence about the future of win-win cooperation between China and Myanmar.赞比亚《每日邮报》记者:当前国际经济形势低迷,中国经济增速放缓和对大宗商品的需求下降,中非经贸合作和中国对非援助能不能得到有效落实?
Zambia Daily Mail: The world economy is sluggish.China’s growth is slowing down and its demand for commodities is dropping.Will this affect China-Africa economic cooperation and China’s development aid to Africa?
王毅:今年是中非建交60周年。世界变了,中国和非洲也在变,但不变的是中非之间彼此信赖、相互支持的深厚友谊。
Wang Yi: China’s diplomatic relations with African countries go back 60 years.In the meantime, the world has changed, and so have China and Africa.But what remains unchanged is the deep bond of friendship, mutual trust and mutual support between China and Africa.去年底,习近平主席宣布实施对非十大合作计划。这个计划的最大特点就是要从迄今主要依靠资源类产品的贸易模式转向更多开展投资和产业合作,通过鼓励更多中国企业走进非洲,帮助非洲加快工业化进程,提高自主发展能力。因此,这一计划可谓正逢其时,恰恰可以有效应对当前国际经济形势变化给非洲带来的新挑战。中国一向言出必行。峰会刚刚过去3个月,我们已经和20多个非洲国家对接,积极落实峰会成果,一批早期收获项目即将落地,中非产能合作基金也已启动运行。
At the end of last year, President Xi announced 10 cooperation plans for China and Africa.The most salient feature of these plans is that we want to transition from a trade pattern that has so far been dominated by resource products to more investment and industrial cooperation.By encouraging more Chinese businesses to invest in Africa, we want to help the continent accelerate its industrialization and boost its capacity for development.So these plans couldn’t have come at a better time.They are designed precisely to help Africa deal with the new challenges from the global economy.When China makes a promise, it always delivers.Just three months after the China-Africa summit, we have gotten into touch with over 20 African countries to follow up on the outcomes of the summit.A number of early harvest items will materialize soon, and the China-Africa Fund for Industrial Cooperation is already up and running.多年来,外界对中非合作有各种议论。但非洲自己最有发言权。去年中非峰会上,多位非洲领导人公开表示,中国从来没有殖民过非洲,而是帮助非洲摆脱贫困、实现发展,为非洲带来了新生;非洲一直在寻找一个有着共同利益和真正可靠的合作伙伴,最终找到了中国。他们的发言在现场引发强烈共鸣,真正代表了广大非洲人民的心声。
For many years, there are all kinds of comments about China-Africa cooperation, but the African people know the best.At last year’s summit, many African leaders stated publicly that China has never colonized Africa.Rather, China has helped Africa to emerge from poverty and realize development, and China has brought new life to Africa.They also said that Africa has been searching for a truly reliable partner with common interests.Eventually, they have found such a partner in China.These statements struck a chord with many in the audience;the African leaders spoke the mind of the African people.―外交小灵通‖网友:中国外交这么忙,究竟在忙什么呢?跟我们老百姓的生活有关系吗?
Question from a Diplo-Chat follower: China’s diplomacy is very busy.What are you busy with? Does what you do have an impact on the lives of ordinary people?
王毅:很高兴回答来自网友的问题。首先愿借这个机会感谢广大网友对外交工作的关心和支持。Wang Yi: I’m glad to have the opportunity to answer a question from the netizens.Let me first thank all the netizens for their understanding and support for China’s diplomacy.这位网友说得很对,中国外交这几年的确非常忙,但忙得很有必要,很有收获。
The netizen is right in noting that China’s diplomacy has been pretty busy in the last few years.In my view, it’s worthwhile and fruitful.必要,是因为这个世界上的事情越来越离不开中国的参与。三年来,习近平主席20次出访,相当于环绕地球飞行10圈。所到之处都刮起强劲―中国风‖。中国在国际上的地位越来越高,中国人的腰板越来越硬。
Our hard work is worthwhile, because more and more problems in the world cannot be resolved without Chinese participation.In the last three years, President Xi has made 20 overseas visits and he has flown enough miles to circle the globe 10 times.Everywhere he traveled, he created a strong ―Chinese whirlwind‖.Today, China has an ever higher international standing.Wherever Chinese people go, they can hold their head high.收获,是因为中国外交不仅―高大上‖,而且―接地气‖。大家看到,中国的领导人,甚至我们的主席、总理都在出访期间亲自做―讲解员‖和―推销员‖。他们心里想着的是国内的发展建设,装着的是人民的利益福祉。
Our hard work has also been fruitful, because China’s diplomacy is not only ―high-flying‖ but also ―down-to-earth‖.As you can see, our leaders, including our President and our Premier, have often acted as ―presenters‖ and ―salesmen‖ of Chinese equipment and technology on foreign trips.Even when they are abroad, what they think about is China’s development and the wellbeing of the Chinese people.我只举一个例子。今年1月习主席访问伊朗后4天,首列―义乌—德黑兰‖货运班列通车,为义乌7万多家商户开辟了成本更低、效率更高的快捷通道,让他们拥有更多商机、更好收益。其实还有很多这样的事例和故事,大家如有兴趣,请点击一下―外交小灵通‖。
Let me give you just one example.Four days after President Xi visited Iran in January, the first freight train ran on the Yiwu-Tehran railway.The railway provided a cost-effective channel of transportation for over 70,000 businesses in Yiwu, creating more business opportunities and better profits for them.There are many more such stories.If you’re interested, you can follow the Diplo-Chat Weibo account.最近外交部推出了一项促进地方发展与开放的新举措,那就是外交搭台,地方唱戏。在外交部蓝厅为地方省区市举办全球推介活动,邀请各国驻华使节及企业参加,彼此零距离交流,面对面对接。上个星期,主办了首场推介宁夏活动,反响很好。今后大概每两三个月举行一次,欢迎各省区市踊跃参与。
Recently, the Foreign Ministry created a new platform to showcase and promote the development and opening of Chinese provinces.In the Blue Hall of the Foreign Ministry, we organized a promotional event and invited foreign diplomatic envoys and businesses to have face-to-face discussions with the representatives of Chinese provinces.Last week, the first event focusing on Ningxia was a great success.In the future, we plan to hold such an event once every few months.We welcome the active participation of Chinese provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities.中国外交今后还会越来越忙,服务和支持国内发展的力度会越来越大,我们老百姓从中分享的红包也会越来越多。
In short, China’s diplomacy will only get busier.We’ll provide ever stronger services and support for China’s development, and Chinese people can expect more benefits from China’s diplomacy.记者会历时2小时,500多名中外记者参加。
The press conference lasted two hours and was attended by more than 500 Chinese and foreign journalists.
第四篇:中英文2018王毅就中国的外交政策和对外关系答记者问
学习材料 2018 外交部长王毅
就“中国的外交政策和对外关系”答记者问
Foreign Minister Wang Yi Meets the Press
2018年3月8日,十三届全国人大一次会议在两会新闻中心举行记者会,邀请外交部长王毅就中国外交政策和对外关系回答中外记者提问。
On 8 March 2018, the First Session of the Thirteenth National People’s Congress held a press conference.Foreign Minister Wang Yi answered questions on China’s foreign policy and external relations.王毅:各位记者朋友,大家上午好!首先,我要向在场的女记者们并向所有女同胞们致以节日的祝福。同时,我也要借此机会向所有关心和支持中国外交的中外记者朋友们表示感谢,中国外交取得的成绩里有你们付出的一份辛劳和贡献。大家辛苦了!现在,我愿意回答大家的提问。
Wang Yi: Dear members of the press, good morning.At the outset, I wish to extend festive greetings to all women, particularly the female journalists in this room.I also wish to thank the press, Chinese and foreign, for having shown understanding and support for China’s foreign policy and external relations.Everything we have accomplished, you have played a part.Thank you!Now I am ready to take your questions.《人民日报》记者:党的十八大以来,外交工作取得了前所未有的重大成就,赢得了全国人民普遍赞誉。2018年是十九大之后的开局之年,你能否透露今年的中国外交将有哪些亮点?
People’s Daily: Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, China has made unprecedented progress in its foreign relations, which is widely praised across the country.Following the 19th Party Congress, what will be the highlights of China’s diplomatic agenda this year?
王毅:党的十八大以来,在以习近平同志为核心的党中央正确领导下,我们走出了一条具有中国特色、中国气派、中国风格的大国外交之路,为维护国家主权和人民利益,为服务国内改革发展大局发挥了重要作用,取得了历史性成就。去年10月,总书记在中共十九大报告中强调,我们要同各国一道,共同建设新型国际关系、共同构建人类命运共同体,这就是新时代中国特色大国外交的目标。
Wang Yi: Under the outstanding leadership of the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core since the 18th Party Congress, we have traveled on a road of major-country diplomacy that reflects China’s distinct vision, style and values.Producing historic accomplishments, our diplomatic efforts have been instrumental to upholding national sovereignty and interests, and to facilitating domestic reform and development.Last October, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized in his report to the 19th Party Congress that China will work with other countries to foster a new type of international relations and to build a global community with a shared future.This is the aim of China’s major-country diplomacy in the new era.2018年是贯彻落实十九大精神的开局之年。中国外交将在习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想指引下,拿出新作为,展现新气象。今年的中国外交亮点主要体现在四大主场活动上。
The year 2018 kicks off efforts to implement the decisions of the 19th Party Congress.Guided by Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, we in the diplomatic service will take new steps and make new strides.The main highlights of China’s diplomatic calendar will include the following four events we are going to host: 一是4月在海南举行博鳌亚洲论坛年会,主旋律是改革开放。今年恰逢中国改革开放40周年,本届年会将总结改革开放成功经验,展示新时代深化改革、扩大开放的新前景。
First, the Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference, which will take place in Hainan this April and focus on reform and opening-up.In this 40th anniversary year of reform and opening-up, we will review China’s successful experience and sketch new possibilities for reform and opening-up in the new era.二是6月在青岛举行上海合作组织峰会,主旋律是弘扬“上海精神”。扩员后的上合组织将重温互信、互利、平等、协商、尊重多样文明、谋求共同发展的“上海精神”,开启上合组织发展壮大的新征程。
Second, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit, which will take place in Qingdao this June and focus on revitalizing the Shanghai Spirit.The expanded SCO will rededicate itself to the Shanghai Spirit of mutual trust and benefit, equal-footed consultation, respect for diversity of civilizations and pursuit of common development.The summit will set the SCO on a new journey of consolidation and growth.三是9月在北京举行中非合作论坛峰会,主旋律是“一带一路”。非洲各国的兄弟姐妹将会以峰会为契机,全方位参与“一带一路”建设,为中非全面战略伙伴关系注入新动力。
Third, the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation Summit, which will take place in Beijing this September and focus on the Belt and Road Initiative.A great opportunity for our African brothers and sisters to participate fully in the BRI, the Summit will give new impetus to the China-Africa comprehensive strategic partnership.四是11月在上海首次举行中国国际进口博览会,主旋律是市场开放。中国将向世界张开双臂,展现市场潜力,欢迎各国参与和分享中国发展的新机遇。
Fourth, the first China International Import Expo, which will take place in Shanghai this November and focus on further market opening.China will embrace the world with open arms and enormous market potential.All will be welcome to access and benefit from the new opportunities of China’s development.2018年中国外交的大幕已经拉开,新时代的中国外交将为中国自身发展营造更好外部环境,为人类进步事业提供更多正能量。
China’s diplomatic agenda for 2018 are unfolding even as we speak.In the new era, we will work even harder to see that China will enjoy a better environment for development and make greater contributions to human progress.路透社记者:中国可以发挥什么作用鼓励朝美进行直接谈判?中方是否认为美方应该撤离驻韩的美军?
Reuters: What role does China have to facilitate direct talks between North Korea and the United States? Does China believe that the US needs to withdraw its military forces in South Korea? 王毅:半岛问题是当前国际社会最关注的一个话题。朝韩双方抓住冬奥会契机,展开一系列密集互动,南北关系迅速解冻,为冰封已久的半岛局势注入了久违的暖流。发生这样的变化有人似乎感到困惑,其实是情理之中。冬奥会期间,朝鲜没有进行新的核导试验,美韩也暂停了针对朝方的军演。事实证明,中方提出的“双暂停”倡议是一剂对症下药的良方,为南北改善关系营造了最基本的条件。Wang Yi: This is the hottest topic right now.Seizing the opportunity of the PyeongChang Olympics, the DPRK and the ROK have had a succession of interactions and achieved a rapid thaw in their relations, reversing the long-standing chill on the Korean Peninsula.The recent developments may seem baffling to some people, but are actually within the bounds of reason.During the Winter Games, the DPRK did not conduct any nuclear test and the US and the ROK suspended their joint exercises targeting the DPRK.This proves that China’s “suspension for suspension” proposal was the right prescription for the problem and created basic conditions for the improvement of inter-Korean relations.现在,半岛问题的解决终于朝着正确方向迈出了重要一步。我们对朝韩双方为此作出的努力予以充分肯定和支持。接下来的关键,是各方积极呼应,形成合力,共同把半岛局势重新纳入和平稳定的轨道,把半岛核问题重新纳入对话解决的轨道。为此,我们呼吁各方尤其是美朝双方尽快进行接触和对话。各方沿着“双轨并进”的思路,既坚持半岛无核化目标,又积极构建半岛和平机制。在推进无核化的进程中同步对等解决各方包括朝方的合理安全关切。这既是中方的一贯立场,也是联合国安理会决议中确定的目标。
The Korean Peninsula issue has finally taken an important step in the right direction.China fully commends and supports the efforts made by the two Koreas.To return the Peninsula to peace and stability and the nuclear issue to the track of dialogue, these initial steps must be followed up by corresponding and concerted efforts by the parties.To this end, we call on the parties, particularly the US and the DPRK, to engage in dialogue sooner rather than later.We encourage all to follow the dual-track approach of remaining committed to the goal of denuclearization and working actively to establish a peace mechanism on the Peninsula.The parties’ legitimate security concerns, including those of the DPRK, can be addressed in exchange for and in tandem with progress towards denuclearization.This is China’s long-standing position and also the vision set forth in the relevant Security Council resolutions.冰冻三尺非一日之寒。尽管隧道的尽头已经显露曙光,但前行的道路不可能一帆风顺。历史经验告诉我们,每当半岛局势出现缓和时,各种干扰就会如影随形,接踵而来。现在又到了检验各方是不是真心希望解决半岛核问题的关键时刻。和平必须争取,机遇需要把握。各方应以半岛和平大局为重,以本地区人民安危为重,拿出政治勇气,作出政治决断,尽快开展一切必要和有益的双多边接触,全力推动重启和平解决半岛核问题的对话谈判。中方将为此继续作出不懈努力。Of course, it takes more than one cold day to freeze three feet of ice.Despite light at the end of the tunnel, the journey ahead won’t be smooth.History has reminded us time and again that whenever tensions subsided on the Peninsula, the situation would be clouded by various interferences.Now is a crucial moment for testing the sincerity of the parties.Every effort must be made for peace, and the opportunity must be seized.It falls to all parties to bear in mind the imperative of peace and the well-being of people in the region.All must demonstrate political courage and make a political decision to expeditiously carry out all necessary and useful engagements, both bilateral and plurilateral, and to do their best to restart dialogue and negotiation for the peaceful settlement of the nuclear issue.China will continue to make unremitting efforts for this outcome.中央电视台记者:党的十八大以来,总书记亲力亲为开展元首外交,推动我国国际地位和影响得到历史性提升。你怎么看待中国元首外交的重要作用和影响?
China Central Television: In the last five years, President Xi has been fully engaged in China’s foreign policy.His personal diplomacy has enhanced China’s standing and international influence like never before.How do you see the role and impact of the diplomacy conducted by President Xi as head of state? 王毅:元首外交是国际交往的最高形态,有着其他交往无法替代的重要作用和战略价值。党的十八大以来,习近平主席作为中国特色大国外交的总设计师,亲自擘画和推进了精彩纷呈的元首外交,遍访世界57个国家,接待了110多位外国元首访华。这些重大外交活动,不仅极大增进了国际社会对中国的了解,有效提升了中国的国际地位和影响,也为解决当今许多全球性问题指明了方向。而习主席本人的领袖风范和人格魅力,使许多不同社会制度、文化背景的领导人都成为了他的好朋友,成为了中国的好朋友。
Wang Yi: Head-of-state diplomacy as the highest form of state-to-state interaction plays a pivotal role and has irreplaceable strategic value.Since 2012, President Xi Jinping has been the chief architect of China’s distinctive major-country diplomacy.He was personally involved in the planning and conduct of head-of-state diplomacy, which by all accounts has been brilliant.To date, President Xi has visited 57 countries in different parts of the world and received more than 110 foreign heads of state.These important visits and meetings go a long way towards deepening the world’s understanding of China, enhancing China’s profile and influence, and facilitating the solution of many global problems.President Xi’s leadership and charisma has earned him – and his country – many good friends among foreign leaders who represent a diverse range of cultures and social systems.2018年,除了主持四大主场活动之外,习主席还将赴南非、巴布亚新几内亚和阿根廷出席金砖国家领导人峰会、亚太经合组织领导人非正式会议以及二十国集团领导人会晤。我们相信,习主席亲力亲为的元首外交将会进一步展现为人民谋福、为国家负责、为世界担当的博大情怀,书写新时代中国特色大国外交的崭新篇章。
In the year ahead, President Xi will host the four diplomatic events I mentioned earlier, and he will also attend the BRICS Summit in South Africa, the APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting in Papua New Guinea and the G20 Summit in Argentina.We believe that President Xi’s personal diplomacy will make a positive and responsible contribution to the well-being of his people, the interests of China and the welfare of the world.It will write a whole new chapter of major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics in the new era.彭博社记者:关于美中贸易战,美方表示愿意采取一切工具防止中国破坏国际竞争。请问中国是否愿意采取一切工具反击?
Bloomberg: The US says it will use all available tools to prevent China from undermining international competition.Will China respond in kind? 王毅:作为外长,我有责任首先重申中方对美政策。中美双方达成的重要共识是,双方都认为,中美在维护世界和平、稳定、繁荣方面拥有广泛共同利益和重要责任。双方将在互利互惠基础上拓展各领域合作,在相互尊重基础上管控好分歧矛盾,加强两国人民之间的相互了解和友谊,合作应对重大地区和全球性挑战,推动中美关系持续健康稳定发展。
Wang Yi: Let me first reiterate China’s policy towards the United States.China and the US are agreed that we share broad interests and important responsibilities for global peace, stability and prosperity.Our two countries are to carry out broad-based cooperation on the basis of mutual benefit, manage our differences on the basis of mutual respect, deepen mutual understanding and friendship between our people, and work together to address major regional and global challenges.We ought to work for the sustained, healthy and steady growth of our relations.中美之间主要是合作。两国人民之间有着非常广泛和密切的交往。美国盖洛普民调最新数字表明,美国民众对中国的好感度超过了50%,这是近30年来最高的。我希望大家更要看到这些积极因素。作为世界上最大的发展中国家和最大的发达国家,中美合作将造福两国,惠及世界。如果说中美之间有竞争的话,也应该是良性和积极竞争,这在国际交往中也是正常的。换句话说,中美可以有竞争,不必做对手,更需当伙伴。
Cooperation is the main thrust of China-US relations.Our people enjoy close and extensive exchanges.According to the latest Gallup poll, more than 50 percent of Americans have a favorable view of China, the highest rate in nearly three decades.I hope people will pay more attention to such positive things.As the largest developing country and developed country, China and America working together will benefit not just our own countries, but also the whole world.If there is any competition between us, which is natural, it has to be healthy and positive.We may have competition, but we don’t have to be rivals.Instead, we should strive to be partners.中国将坚持走自己选择的发展道路,中国的发展振兴不可阻挡,这已是国际社会的普遍认知。美国一些人认为中国因此要取代美国在国际上的作用,这是根本性的战略误判。我们走的是中国特色社会主义道路,核心要义是坚持和平发展,成功之处在于合作共赢,这与传统大国曾经走过的路完全不同,正在得到越来越多国家的认同和欢迎。中国越发展,越能为世界做贡献。中国实现自身现代化的路还很长,不会也不必去取代美国的作用。双方应在遵守中美三个联合公报和双方各项共识的基础上相互尊重,优势互补,合作共赢。中美关系数十年来历经风雨,但对话与合作始终是主线,因为这是唯一明智也是现实的选择。
China is determined to stay on the path it has chosen, and China’s development and revitalization is unstoppable.This is the consensus of the international community.Some Americans allege that China will replace America’s role in the world.This strategic conclusion is fundamentally wrong.China is on the path of socialism with distinctive Chinese characteristics.Its success is underpinned by its commitment to peaceful development and win-win cooperation.China’s path is completely different from that of traditional powers and, as such, is commended and welcomed by a growing number of countries.The truth is, the more China develops, the more contribution it can make to the world.China is on a long march to modernization.It has no need or intention to displace America.China and America must respect each other, combine our strengths and pursue win-win cooperation on the basis of the three joint communiqués and our common understandings.China-US relations have gone through a lot in the past few decades, but dialogue and cooperation has always carried the day.It is the wise thing to do;there can be no alternative.至于中美之间的贸易摩擦。历史的经验教训证明,打贸易战从来都不是解决问题的正确途径。尤其在全球化的今天,选择贸易战更是抓错了药方,结果只会损人害己,中方必将作出正当和必要的反应。作为两个利益高度融合的大国,作为世界第一和第二大经济体,中美既要对两国人民负责,也要为世界各国负责。双方还是应当心平气和地坐下来,通过平等和建设性对话,共同找出一个互利双赢的办法。
As for our trade frictions, history teaches that trade war is never the right solution.In a globalized world, it is particularly unhelpful, as it will harm the initiator as well as the target country.In the event of a trade war, China will make a justified and necessary response.The bottom line is, as the world’s largest economies, China’s and America’s interests are deeply entwined.We must bear in mind not just the interests of our own people, but also the well-being of the world.When all is said and done, we hope China and America will have a calm and constructive dialogue as equals, and find a win-win solution.《中国日报》记者:外界议论说中国已经改变了不干涉内政原则,将更多干预他国和地区事务,这是否正成为中国外交新趋势?
China Daily: We hear a view that China has abandoned its long-standing policy of non-interference in favor of a more interventionist approach.Are we seeing a new trend in China’s foreign policy?
王毅:作为安理会常任理事国,中国始终把维护国际和平作为自己应尽的责任。早在上世纪50年代,我们就为和平解决印度支那问题作出过重要贡献。而今天的中国,更应为解决地区和国际热点问题积极发挥作用。这既是我们应该做的,也是各方的普遍期待。
Wang Yi: As a permanent member of the UN Security Council, China takes seriously its responsibility for maintaining international peace.Even in the 1950s, we made an important contribution to the peaceful settlement of the Indochina issue.Today, China is in a much better position to help resolve various regional and international issues.We are ready to play our part;indeed, the world expects no less from us.中国参与解决热点问题,有着鲜明的中国特色,始终坚持有所为也有所不为。归纳起来有三条,即和平性、正当性和建设性。和平性就是坚持政治解决方向,主张通过对话谈判解决任何矛盾分歧,坚决反对使用武力;正当性就是坚持不干涉内政原则,尊重当事国的主权和意愿,坚决反对强加于人;建设性就是坚持客观公正立场,根据事情本身的是非曲直开展斡旋调停,坚决反对谋取私利。这三个特色,来源于中国优秀的文化传统,植根于中国外交的成功实践,符合联合国宪章的宗旨和原则,也为解决各种冲突和挑战提供了正确导向和积极借鉴。
In helping to settle various flashpoints, we follow a distinctly Chinese approach.There are things we will do and there are things we won’t do.Put simply, our approach is at once peaceful, justifiable and constructive.First, we prefer a political settlement of disputes through dialogue and negotiation, and firmly reject the use of force.Second, we respect other countries’ sovereignty and wish, and never meddle in their internal affairs.Indeed, we firmly reject imposing one’s own view on others.Third, we do our best to be fair and objective and proceed from the merits of the matter.We firmly reject pursuing private ends.Our approach is rooted in traditional Chinese culture and our successful diplomatic practice.In keeping with the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, it shows the right way and provides a good example for resolving conflicts and challenges in the world.俄罗斯国际通讯社记者:俄罗斯将于3月18日举行总统选举,你对选举结果有何预期?如何看待中俄关系前景?
RIA Novosti: Russia’s presidential election is scheduled for 18 March.What do you think the result is going to be? How does China view the prospects of China-Russia relations? 王毅:俄罗斯总统选举是俄罗斯国家和人民的大事。我们看到,在普京总统领导下,近年来俄罗斯的国家发展取得了重要成就,普京总统始终得到俄罗斯人民的坚定支持。我们相信,俄罗斯人民一定会再次作出正确的选择,俄罗斯民族也一定会在国家振兴道路上继续阔步前行。俄罗斯民族是一个有韧性、有坚持、能抗压的民族。我们祝福俄罗斯,祝福俄罗斯人民。
Wang Yi: The presidential election is of vital importance to Russia and its people.We note that President Putin has overseen important strides in Russia’s development and he has strong support from his people.We trust the Russian people will again make the right choice and advance steadily towards national revitalization.The Russian people are resilient, principled and resistant to pressure.Our best wishes for Russia and the Russian people!至于中俄关系的前景,我们充满信心。我们的信心来自于两国元首结下的深厚友谊和互信,这将是继续引领两国关系发展的根本保障。我们的信心还来自于双方各领域务实合作的不断深化,来自于在彼此核心利益上坚定的相互支持,来自于在国际事务中的密切协作以及两国各界日益频繁的交流往来。总之,中俄全面战略协作伙伴关系稳如泰山。请你向俄罗斯的朋友们转达一句话,中俄深化合作没有止境,中俄关系没有最好只有更好。
We have great confidence in the future of China-Russia relations.Our confidence comes from the strong friendship and trust between our presidents, which is fundamental to the further growth of our relationship.It also comes from the deepening of our cooperation in so many fields, our firm support for each other’s core interests, our close coordination on international affairs and the growing exchanges between our two societies.In short, the China-Russia comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination is as unshakable as a mountain.I ask you to convey this to our friends in Russia: the sky is the limit for Sino-Russian cooperation, and we must continue to make the relationship even better than it already is.《环球时报》记者:近年来,中国各领域影响不断上升,十九大后国人对未来更加充满期待,但国际上也有人炒作新一轮“中国威胁论”。你如何回应上述说法? Global Times: China’s influence has been on the rise across the board.The 19th Party Congress gives Chinese people greater expectations about their future.However, some in the world are again trying to paint China as a threat.How would you counter this claim? 王毅:过去几十年,西方一直在对中国作出各种评判和预测,归纳起来无非一种是“中国崩溃论”,一种是“中国威胁论”。随着中国的持续发展,“中国崩溃论”自己先崩溃了,变成了一个国际笑柄。“中国威胁论”虽然有了新的翻版,但却更加不得人心。因为事实胜于雄辩。
Wang Yi: For decades, the West has made all kinds of assessments and predictions about China.To some Westerners, China is either “collapsing” or “threatening”.As China continues to grow, the first theory has collapsed and become an international laughing stock.Meanwhile, proponents of the second theory have conjured up new versions, which find dwindling support because facts speak louder than words.事实是什么?那就是:中国是全球经济增长的主要贡献者,年均贡献率达到30%以上,超过美国、日本以及欧元区国家的总和;中国是全球减贫事业的主要贡献者,贡献率超过70%,创造了人类历史上的奇迹;中国是维护世界和平的主要贡献者,成为安理会五常中派出联合国维和人员最多的国家,维和经费出资居世界第二位;此外,在过去5年中,中国还通过提出共建“一带一路”等重大倡议,成为参与全球治理、维护贸易自由化和开放型世界经济的主要贡献者。
What are the facts? For years, China has been the leading engine of global growth.At more than 30 percent, China’s annual contribution is bigger than that of America, Japan and the Eurozone combined.China accounts for more than 70 percent of poverty reduction worldwide, a miracle in human history.As the largest source of peacekeeping personnel among the permanent members of the Security Council and the second largest contributor to the UN peacekeeping budget, China is bearing a weighty responsibility for maintaining world peace.Not to mention that in the last five years, with its Belt and Road Initiative and other major proposals, China has come to the fore in championing global governance, free trade and an open global economy.对于这些事实,只要不怀有偏见,不奉行双重标准,从中看到的决不是什么威胁,而是满满的机遇。所谓“中国威胁论”可以休矣。
From these solid facts, those who do not have bias or practice double standards will see in China not a threat, but plenty of opportunities.It’s time the “China threat theory” was laid to rest.哈萨克通讯社记者:5年来,“一带一路”倡议取得了很大进展。但有个别西方人也对倡议透明度及是否符合国际规则有疑虑。请问中方如何回应? Kazinform: Since its launch five years ago, the Belt and Road Initiative has made a lot of progress.However, some Westerners seem to harbor doubts about its transparency and conformity with international rules.What is China’s response? 王毅:“一带一路”是中国提出的阳光倡议,共商、共建、共享是推进“一带一路”的黄金法则。这六个字决定了“一带一路”合作具有鲜明的平等性、开放性和普惠性。也就是说,无论是规划合作蓝图还是实施具体项目,都由参与方商量着办,一切都在阳光下运行。没有一家独大,而是各方平等参与;没有暗箱操作,而是坚持公开透明;没有赢者通吃,而是谋求互利共赢。
Wang Yi: The Belt and Road is a transparent initiative launched by China.It follows the “golden rule” of extensive consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits.Belt and Road cooperation aims to be equal-footed, inclusive and beneficial to all.The planning and implementation of BRI projects have been discussed by the participants in the open.No country is dominating the process;all parties have an equal say.There is no back-room deal;everything is transparent.There is no “winner takes all”;every project delivers win-win results.去年5月,140多个国家的代表出席“一带一路”国际合作高峰论坛,这是国际社会对“一带一路”投出的“信任票”和“支持票”。迄今已有80多个国家和国际组织与中方签署了共建“一带一路”合作协议,一大批合作项目正在全面推进,为当地经济社会发展发挥了雪中送炭作用。比如,中国在巴基斯坦开工建设的十余座电站,将彻底解决巴国内缺电限电的历史困境,仅其中一座电站就满足了上千万民众的日常需求。中国企业收购陷入困境的塞尔维亚钢厂,不到一年就扭亏为盈,不仅保住了5000多人的就业,还使整个城市浴火重生。中国企业接手希腊最大港口的经营,货物吞吐量迅速回升,重新跻身欧洲大港行列。中国和法国联手在英国建设核电站,成为“一带一路”高新技术项目合作的典范。
Last May, the representatives of more than 140 countries participated in the Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation.The turnout is a clear vote of confidence from the international community.To date, more than 80 countries and international organizations have signed BRI agreements with China.A large number of BRI projects are well underway and adding needed momentum to the economic and social development of our partner countries.For example, China is building over a dozen power stations for Pakistan, the largest of which is supplying electricity to tens of millions of Pakistanis.When all of them are completed, power cuts and shortages will be a thing of the past in Pakistan.In Serbia, a Chinese enterprise bought a troubled steel mill and turned it around in less than a year, both saving more than 5,000 local jobs and helping to re-energize the city in which the steel mill is located.In Greece, a Chinese group took over the operation of its largest seaport, ramped up the container volume and put it back in the same league as Europe’s largest ports.China is also partnering with France to build a nuclear power plant in the UK, a stellar example of high-tech cooperation under the BRI.“一带一路”是全球公共产品,当然遵守国际规则;“一带一路”是国际合作平台,自然按照市场规律行事。去年高峰论坛发表的联合公报已对此作出公开承诺,并且强调要统筹好经济、社会、金融和环境之间的关系,增强合作项目的可持续性。我们真诚欢迎各方为“一带一路”建言献策,共同把“一带一路”建设好,推进好。不仅加强各国基础设施的“硬联通”,也要开展政策、规则和标准的“软联通”;不仅接地气,还要高标准;不仅效益好,而且高质量;不仅惠及中国,更要造福世界。
As a global public good, the BRI of course abides by international rules.As a platform for international cooperation, it naturally follows market principles.The joint communiqué of last year’s forum committed to this and emphasized the importance of economic, social, fiscal and environmental sustainability of projects.We sincerely ask for ideas from all parties, so that we will together make a success of the Belt and Road Initiative.Our goal is not only to strengthen the physical connectivity of infrastructure, but also to improve the institutional connectivity of policies, rules and standards.BRI projects must be high-standard as well as results-oriented, high-quality as well as economically viable, beneficial to the world as well as to China.北京电视台记者:李克强总理在政府工作报告中指出,今年是贯彻十九大精神开局之年,是改革开放40周年,是决胜全面建成小康社会、实施“十三五”规划承上启下的关键一年。请问外交部在服务国家发展方面会有哪些举措?
Beijing TV: Premier Li Keqiang emphasized in his government work report that 2018 will kick off efforts to put the decisions of the 19th Party Congress into action.It is the 40th anniversary of reform and opening-up, and a crucial year for securing a decisive victory in establishing a moderately prosperous society in all respects and for implementing the 13th Five-Year Plan.What will the Ministry of Foreign Affairs do in 2018 to facilitate China’s development goals? 王毅:中国仍是发展中国家,服务国内发展是中国特色大国外交分内的事。面对新的历史使命和时代要求,外交部将按照中央的统一部署,更加积极有为地做好服务发展这篇大文章。
Wang Yi: China still being a developing country, facilitating domestic development is part and parcel of major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics.Keeping in mind our new mission and what is expected of us, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will implement the decisions of the central leadership and be more active in facilitating domestic development.我们将适应新形势,按照高质量发展的需要,为“走出去”、“引进来”,扩大对外合作创造更有利条件,为国内发展营造更良好国际环境。
We will adapt to the new landscape of high-quality development to create a more favorable environment for external cooperation, including “bringing in” and “going global”, and for domestic development.我们将破解新课题,紧扣社会主要矛盾变化,打造地方省区市全球推介活动的增强版,并将创办反映重大改革开放举措的专题推介,更有针对性地讲好中国的故事。比如今年我们将向全球推介雄安新区。扶贫工作外交部也从不缺位,将为打赢脱贫攻坚战贡献一份力量。
We will tackle the new challenges presented by the evolution of the principal contradiction facing Chinese society.To tell China’s stories in a more compelling way, we will both upgrade the presentation of Chinese provinces and launch a new series on the major initiatives of reform and opening-up.For example, later this year we will host an event to present the Xiongan New Area to the world.In addition, the MFA has been and will continue to be fully engaged in poverty alleviation and do its bit for winning the nationwide battle against poverty.我们还将落实新要求,发挥好外交部和驻外机构遍布全球的优势,为“一带一路”建设铺路架桥,维护好我国海外利益。
We will meet the new requirements and leverage our diplomatic and consular assets across the globe to facilitate the Belt and Road Initiative and protect China’s overseas interests.总之,推进新时代中国特色大国外交,我们既要当对外工作的“排头兵”,也要做服务发展的“实干家”。
All in all, in advancing major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics in the new era, we aim to be not just the pacesetter of China’s international engagement, but also a solid contributor to domestic development.澎湃新闻记者:今年是中国—东盟建立战略伙伴关系15周年,中方对发展中国—东盟关系有什么设想?
The Paper: This year marks the 15th anniversary of the strategic partnership between China and ASEAN.How will China take forward the relationship? 王毅:今年是中国—东盟建立战略伙伴关系15周年,具有继往开来的重要意义。Wang Yi: As we celebrate the 15th anniversary, 2018 is of particular importance for the future of China-ASEAN strategic partnership.15年来,中国—东盟合作从小到大,硕果累累。中国连续9年保持东盟第一大贸易伙伴地位。去年双方贸易额突破5000亿美元,人员往来突破4000万人次,为中国和东盟各国近20亿民众带来了实实在在利益。中国—东盟合作已经成为亚太区域合作中最为成功和最具活力的典范。
The last 15 years have seen China-ASEAN cooperation go from strength to strength and bear rich fruits.For nine years running, China has been ASEAN’s largest trading partner.Last year, our trade exceeded 500 billion dollars and two-way visits totaled 40 million, all of which brought real benefits to our combined population of nearly 2 billion.Indeed, China-ASEAN cooperation is the most successful and dynamic in the Asian-Pacific region.2018年,我们将继续把东盟放在对外合作议程的首页,打造更高水平的战略伙伴关系,构建更紧密的命运共同体。我们将推进三项重点任务:一是规划新蓝图。制定《中国—东盟战略伙伴关系2030年愿景》,实现“一带一路”倡议和东盟发展规划更好的对接。二是培育新亮点。在政治安全、经贸、社会人文三大支柱下开辟更多合作领域,增加更多合作项目,取得更多合作成果。三是打造新高地。进一步培育澜湄流域经济发展带,构建同东盟东部增长区的合作框架,支持东盟共同体建设,推动区域全面经济伙伴关系协定早日达成。
In the year ahead, we will continue to give the highest priority to cooperation with ASEAN, upgrade our strategic partnership and build a more close-knit community of shared destiny.We have three priorities.First, we will work out a new blueprint of cooperation.The proposed China-ASEAN Strategic Partnership Vision 2030 will lead to better coordination between the Belt and Road Initiative and ASEAN’s development plans.Second, we will foster new highlights of cooperation.Cooperation will be broadened in the political and security, economic and trade, and social and people-to-people areas, with more projects and outcomes in the pipeline.Third, we will forge new platforms of cooperation.Efforts will be made to build a Lancang-Mekong economic development belt, establish a cooperation framework with the East ASEAN Growth Area, support ASEAN community-building, and conclude the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership as soon as possible.新加坡《海峡时报》记者:南海形势平静,但也有人担心中国在南海岛礁建设导致军事化。中国和东盟国家今年年内达成“南海行为准则”的可能性大吗? The Straits Times: The South China Sea is calm now, but there are still concerns over reports of China’s continuing militarization of its islands in the South China Sea.Are the talks with ASEAN countries for a code of conduct likely to be completed this year? 王毅:中国维护南海和平稳定的决心不可动摇,诚意始终如一。我们处理南海问题的立足点,是对中国人民负责,对历史事实负责,对地区和平负责,对国际法治负责。这一立场坚如磐石,一以贯之。
Wang Yi: When it comes to maintaining peace and stability in the South China Sea, China’s resolve is as strong as its commitment is deep.China’s approach to the South China Sea issue is a responsible one that takes into account the interests of the Chinese people, the facts of history, the imperative of regional peace and the international rule of law.This position is firm and consistent.当前南海面临的首先是机遇。南海形势明显趋稳向好。中国和东盟国家达成高度一致,愿意通过制定“南海行为准则”,共同维护目前得来不易的安定局面。几天前,中国与东盟国家就准则的案文进行了首次磋商,取得积极进展,并且商定年内至少再举行3次磋商。中国和东盟国家有意愿,也有能力以自主方式制定出符合地区实际、各方共同遵守的地区规则。
With situation in the South China Sea turning for the better, China and ASEAN countries face a golden opportunity.We all agree to develop a code of conduct in the South China Sea to preserve its hard-won tranquility.Last week, our officials held an inaugural round of consultation on the COC text and made encouraging progress.At least three more rounds have been envisaged for the remainder of this year.China and ASEAN countries are willing and able to draft regional rules on our own, rules which will meet our region’s imperatives and be adhered to by all.当前南海面临的主要挑战是,一些外部势力反而对南海风平浪静心有不甘,总想挑动是非,唯恐天下不乱,说到军事化,动辄把全副武装的舰船飞机派到南海炫耀武力,这才是影响南海和平稳定的最大干扰因素。
There are also challenges in the South China Sea.Some outside forces are not happy with the prevailing calm and try to stir up trouble and muddle the waters.Their frequent show of force with fully-armed aircraft and naval vessels is the most destabilizing factor for peace and stability in our region.青山遮不住,毕竟东流去。新的一年里,我们将同东盟国家一起,抓住机遇,拓展合作,排除干扰,化解挑战,珍惜双方努力取得的成果,加快准则的磋商进程,积极探索构建南海沿岸国合作机制,共同把南海建设成和平之海、合作之海。It is useful to heed the wisdom of a Chinese verse, “Green hills cannot stop the river flowing;to the vast ocean it keeps advancing.” In the year ahead, China will work with ASEAN countries to seize the opportunity, broaden cooperation, prevent interference and overcome challenges.Cherishing what we have worked so hard to achieve, China and ASEAN countries will speed up the COC consultation, actively explore a mechanism of cooperation among the coastal states, and promote peace and cooperation in the South China Sea.中国国际电视台记者:今年中国将在时隔12年后再次主办中非合作论坛峰会,你对峰会成果有何预期?新时代的中国如何继续坚持对非真实亲诚理念?
China Global Television Network: In 2018, for the very first time in 12 years, the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation will once again be hosted by China.What outcome do you expect from that summit? I am also wondering how China stays true to its policy on honesty and amicability towards Africa in the new era? 王毅:对于中非关系,总书记曾精辟地指出:中国和非洲国家是患难之交,患难之交不能忘。因此,不管世界怎么变化,也不管别人说什么,中非之间的深厚友谊都牢不可破,中国对非真实亲诚的理念也不会改变。
Wang Yi: General Secretary Xi Jinping once made a powerful statement: “China and Africa are friends tested by adversity.Such friends must never be forgotten.” So be assured: no matter how the world may change or what others may say, the profound friendship between China and Africa will remain unbreakable, and China’s promise of sincerity, real results, friendship and good faith will remain true.作为非洲国家的好兄弟,好伙伴,我们始终把非洲国家的需要和利益放在心上,想非洲之所想,急非洲之所急。非洲当前面临维护和平安全、促进振兴发展两大任务,中国将根据非洲国家实际需要,加大对非洲热点问题的斡旋,加强同非洲各国在反恐、打击海盗、防灾减灾等非传统安全领域合作,不断提高非洲国家维护自身和平与安全的能力。
As Africa’s brother and partner, China will always attach particular importance to the needs and interests of African countries.Africa’s concerns are China’s concerns, and its priorities are China’s priorities.Africa faces the twin challenges of maintaining peace and security and of promoting development and revitalization.In response to its needs, China will step up mediation in regional flashpoints.China will also enhance cooperation with African countries on unconventional security threats such as terrorism, piracy and natural disaster, and help them build capacity for ensuring their own peace and security.在构建人类命运共同体的新征程上,非洲是不可或缺的重要伙伴。我们欢迎非洲兄弟姐妹继续搭乘中国发展的快车。今年9月中非合作论坛峰会将在中国举行,各国领导人将在时隔12年后再次齐聚北京,共商新时代的中非合作大计。峰会主题将聚焦中非共建“一带一路”,共筑中非命运共同体。我们将推动“一带一路”与联合国2030可持续发展议程相对接,与非盟《2063年议程》相对接,与非洲各国发展战略相对接,让中非合作插上“一带一路”的强劲翅膀,飞得更高,飞得更远。
In our new endeavor to build a global community with a shared future, Africa is an indispensable partner.China welcomes our African brothers and sisters to continue their ride on China’s fast train of development.The FOCAC summit scheduled for September will bring together Chinese and African leaders again, 12 years after their last gathering in Beijing.They will discuss China-Africa cooperation in the new era and focus on jointly advancing the Belt and Road Initiative and turning China and Africa into a community with a shared future.By aligning the Belt and Road Initiative with the UN’s 2030 Agenda, the AU’s Agenda 2063 and the development strategies of individual African countries, we will give wings to China-Africa cooperation to help it soar to greater heights.共同社记者:今年是《中日和平友好条约》缔结40周年,中日领导人是否实现互访?中方希望今后的中日关系如何发展?
Kyodo News: This year marks the 40th anniversary of the China-Japan Treaty of Peace and Friendship.Will we see an exchange of visits between Chinese and Japanese leaders? How do you see the future of China-Japan relations? 王毅:这段时间,日本方面采取了更为清晰、更为积极的对华政策,中日关系出现难得的改善势头,中方对此表示欢迎。只要日方不犹豫、不折腾、不倒退,客观对待和认同中国的发展,中方愿意与日方相向而行,共同推动两国关系回到健康、稳定的发展轨道。
Wang Yi: In the recent period, Japan has adopted a clearer and more positive policy towards China, resulting in a precious improvement of relations.China welcomes this.If Japan does not prevaricate, flip-flop or backpedal, and instead comes to terms with China’s development and welcomes it, China will be willing to act in the same spirit and work with Japan to put our relationship back on the track of healthy and steady growth.今年是中日和平友好条约缔结40周年。40年前的条约,以法律形式确认了正确对待历史、坚持一个中国等中日关系正常化时规定的各项政治原则,明确了两国和平共处、世代友好的大方向。不忘初心,方得始终。40年后,站在承前启后的历史关口,希望日方能够政治上讲信用,行动上守规矩,切实维护好两国关系的政治基础,并且把“互为合作伙伴、互不构成威胁”的政治共识真正落到实处。我相信,只要中日关系持续改善,两国高层往来自然水到渠成,和平友好也将重新成为两国关系的主旋律。
Forty years ago, China and Japan signed the Treaty of Peace and Friendship.It codified the political principles agreed in negotiating the normalization of Sino-Japanese relations, including handling history correctly and following the one-China policy.The treaty also enshrined our joint desire to live in peace and friendship forever.As a saying goes, never forget why you started, and you can accomplish your mission.Forty years on, at another crucial juncture of history, we hope Japan will have political credibility and act accordingly to cement the political foundation of our relations and give effect to the political understanding that “China and Japan see each other as partners, not threats”.I am hopeful that with the steady improvement of our relations, high-level visits will naturally come about, and peace and friendship will again be the dominant theme of China-Japan relations.凤凰卫视记者:中国如何看待美、日、印、澳四国加强合作的“印太”战略?是否认为这是针对中国的“围堵”?
Phoenix TV: What is China’s view on the “Indo-Pacific strategy” pursued by the US, Japan, India and Australia? Do you see it as an attempt to “contain” China? 王毅:这个世界上,各种话题层出不穷,花样翻新。就像太平洋和印度洋上的浪花,一时引人耳目,转瞬归于平寂。有些学者和媒体渲染所谓“印太战略”是为了围堵中国,但四国官方立即表示无意针对任何国家。我希望他们说的是实话,也希望他们能言行一致。在当今时代,再挑起冷战已不合时宜,再搞小圈子对抗更没有市场。
Wang Yi: It seems there is never a shortage of headline-grabbing ideas.They are like the sea foam in the Pacific or Indian Ocean: they may get some attention, but soon will dissipate.Contrary to the claim made by some academics and media outlets that the “Indo-Pacific strategy” aims to contain China, the four countries’ official position is that it targets no one.I hope they mean what they say and their action will match their rhetoric.Nowadays, stoking a new Cold War is out of sync with the times and inciting block confrontation will find no market.印度报业托拉斯记者:去年中印关系非常困难,中方希如何塑造今年的中印关系?
Press Trust of India: Last year has been a very difficult one in India-China relations.How do you see India-China relations shaping up this year? 王毅:中印关系保持着发展势头,也经历了你提到的困难和考验。在此过程中,中方既坚定维护了自身的正当权益,也积极顾全了两国关系大局。对于中印关系的发展前景,两国领导人已经达成了重要战略共识,那就是中印要龙象共舞,而不是龙象争斗;中印1+1不仅等于2,更等于11。
Wang Yi: Despite some tests and difficulties, the China-India relationship continues to grow.In the process, China has both upheld its legitimate rights and interests and taken care to preserve the relationship.Chinese and Indian leaders have developed a strategic vision for the future of our relations: the Chinese “dragon” and the Indian “elephant” must not fight each other, but dance with each other.In that case, one plus one will equal not only two, but also eleven.面对当前国际局势的百年变局,越来越多的有识之士认识到,两个超过10亿人口规模的发展中大国相继走向现代化,最重要的是相互理解,相互支持,最应避免的是相互猜忌,相互消耗。从这个意义上讲,中印之间迫切需要解决的问题就是互信。建立起政治互信,喜马拉雅山也阻挡不了相互加强友好交往。缺乏互信,一马平川也难使双方走到一起。我要告诉印度朋友的是,中印之间共识远多于分歧,利益远大于摩擦。中方愿意同印度继承弘扬友好传统,同印度人民交朋友、做伙伴。希望双方打开心结,相向而行。用信任代替猜忌,以对话管控分歧,靠合作开创未来。
The international situation is experiencing its biggest change in a century.More and more far-sighted people have come to realize that as the largest two developing countries become modernized – each with a population of more than one billion – China and India must do everything to empathize with and support each other and to avoid mutual suspicion and attrition.In this sense, mutual trust is the most precious commodity in China-India relations.With political trust, not even the Himalayas can stop us from strengthening friendly exchanges;without it, not even level land can bring us together.Let me put this to our Indian friends: our shared understandings far outstrip our differences and our common interests far outweigh our frictions.China is willing and ready to inherit and take forward our traditional friendship and be a friend and partner of the Indian people.I hope the two sides will be free from mental inhibitions and meet each other halfway.Let us replace suspicion with trust, manage differences through dialogue, and build a future through cooperation.中国国际广播电台记者:“全面与进步跨太平洋伙伴关系协定”11国商定于今天签署该协定,最早于2019年生效。你对此怎么看?
China Radio International: The 11 countries that make up the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership are expected to sign it today, and the CPTPP may take effect next year at the earliest.What is your thought on this?
王毅:中国没有参加CPTPP协定。但中国历来是贸易自由化的坚定支持者,也是亚太区域合作和经济一体化的重要参与方。2014年,正是在中国推动下,亚太经合组织领导人在北京正式启动了亚太自贸区进程,而中方积极参与的区域全面经济伙伴关系,也就是RCEP,是目前正在商谈的覆盖人口最多、成员构成最广的自贸安排。不管是RCEP还是CPTPP,只要顺应亚太区域经济一体化方向,符合透明、开放、包容原则,有利于维护以WTO为核心的全球自由贸易体系,中方都持积极态度。我们也希望亚太地区各种不同的自贸安排能够彼此沟通协调,形成良性互动,从各自角度为抵制贸易保护主义、构建开放型世界经济发挥建设性作用。
Wang Yi: China is not a party to the CPTPP.However, China has been a strong advocate of trade liberalization and a key player of Asia-Pacific cooperation and economic integration.In 2014, China persuaded APEC economies to kick off in Beijing the process of establishing a Free Trade Area of the Asia-Pacific.China has also been working actively for the conclusion of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership, a free trade pact that will cover more populations and involve more diverse economies than any similar initiative.China is positive about any open, transparent and inclusive arrangement that reinforces regional economic integration and a WTO-centered global free trade system, be it RCEP or CPTPP.We hope to see better communication, coordination and interaction between the various free trade initiatives in our region, so that they may complement one another, help resist trade protectionism and contribute to a more open global economy.法国法兰西广播公司记者:你认为法国能引领中国-欧盟关系方向吗?
Radio France: Do you think France could give a new direction to China-EU relations? 王毅:2018年是中欧建立全面战略伙伴关系15周年。年初,法国马克龙总统率先对中国进行国事访问,中法关系展现生机勃发的“龙马精神”。英国梅首相接踵而来,中英关系打造“黄金时代”的增强版。我们期待今年的中欧关系能够高开高走,迈上新台阶,也乐见法国能为此发挥更积极作用。全球治理合作已成为中欧新的合作增长点,维护全球自由贸易体系是中欧的共同责任,商签中欧投资保护协定有必要提速前进。
Wang Yi: This year will mark the 15th anniversary of the China-EU comprehensive strategic partnership.The year started with President Macron paying a state visit to China and Sino-French relations in excellent shape.Then the visit of Prime Minister May kicked off efforts by China and the UK to upgrade their “Golden Era” of relations.We hope at the end of the year, China-EU relations will be as strong as we have started it.We hope France will make a substantial contribution to the furtherance of China-EU cooperation.Global governance has emerged as a new dimension of such cooperation, China and the EU have a joint responsibility to safeguard the global free trade system, and negotiation needs to be speeded up to conclude a China-EU investment agreement.中欧之间也存在一些分歧,但双方都意识到,我们应多一些换位思考,多一些开放包容,多一些相互理解。就中方而言,我们始终重视欧洲,支持欧洲一体化,看好欧洲发展前景,愿意同欧洲合作,为当今充满不确定性的世界注入更多稳定性和正能量。
There are also some disagreements between China and the EU.But both sides have realized the need to put oneself in the other’s shoes and to be more open, tolerant and understanding of each other.China has always appreciated the importance of Europe.We support European integration and have confidence in Europe’s future.Given all the uncertainty around us, China is ready to partner with Europe to provide more stability and make the world a better place.中新社记者:这几年国内民众对领保工作给予许多赞许,同时期待也更多,但也有舆论认为民众应该对领保工作要有理性认识。你对此怎么看?
China News Service: Chinese people are speaking favorably of the consular assistance and protection they are getting, but they also expect more to be done.At the same time, there are appeals for a more rational understanding of consular service.What is your view? 王毅:领保是每年的必答题,关系到人民群众的利益,关系到千家万户的幸福。作为外交部,做好领保工作是我们义不容辞的责任。
Wang Yi: Consular assistance and protection seems to be a must-have question at my annual press conference.Indeed, it potentially concerns the interests and well-being of every Chinese and their family.Making a good job of it is the unshirkable responsibility of the foreign service.2017年,中国内地居民出境达到1.3亿人次。面对越来越繁重的领保任务,我们坚持以人民为中心,持续打造由法律支撑、机制建设、风险评估、安全预警、预防宣传和应急处置六大支柱构成的海外中国平安体系。去年一年,外交部总共处理了7万多起领事保护与协助案件,包括从火山喷发的印尼巴厘岛协助游客安全回国,从遭遇飓风灾害的多米尼克把侨胞转移到平安地区。12308领保热线接听了17万通来电,比2016年增加了10万通。预防是最好的保护。外交部去年共发布各类海外安全提醒1000多条,把大量风险化解在公民踏出国门之前。
Last year, as many as 130 million mainlanders traveled overseas.Given the growing magnitude of their consular needs, we adopted a people-centered approach and built a system for ensuring their safety which consists of six pillars, namely, legal provisions, institution building, risk assessment, early warning, awareness raising and emergency response.In 2017, the MFA handled more than 70,000 cases of consular assistance and protection, including evacuating Chinese tourists stranded by the erupting volcano on Bali, Indonesia and getting our nationals to safety from hurricane-ravaged Dominica.The 12308 consular hotline handled 170,000 calls, 100,000 more than in 2016.Prevention is the best protection.Last year, the MFA issued more than 1,000 travel advisories, which significantly reduced our citizens’ risk exposure even before they traveled abroad.随着国家的发展和中外交流的增加,我们看到中国公民的素质在不断提高,依法维权的意识不断增强,维护国家形象的自觉也在不断提升,这为外交部做好领保工作提供了更有力的支持和帮助。
As China develops and interacts more with the world, the social etiquette and civility of its citizens are being enhanced.Nowadays they are more inclined to protect China’s reputation as well as their own rights.This new awareness has made our job easier.2018年,领保工作将在打造海外平安体系的道路上继续前行。我在这里宣布三个利民的好消息:
In 2018, we will further improve the system for ensuring the safety of Chinese nationals abroad.Here I have three pieces of good news for you: 第一是外交部正在推进领事保护与协助的立法工作,将在“两会”之后向社会公开征求意见,欢迎大家踊跃参与,提出宝贵意见。
First, the MFA is working on draft legislation on consular protection and assistance.Public consultation will begin after the close of the NPC and CPPCC sessions.We welcome your input and suggestions.第二是我们将在已经开通的中国领事服务网、12308微信版、“领事之声”微博等平台基础上,很快推出12308的手机APP,为大家提供更便捷的贴身服务。Second, in addition to a dedicated website, the WeChat version of 12308 and the “China Consular Affairs” account on Weibo, we will soon launch the 12308 smartphone app to make consular services more accessible to the people.第三是从明天开始中国所有驻外使领馆将统一大幅下调中国公民办理领事认证的费用,降幅达到三分之二,初步估算每年将为中国公民和企业节省上千万元人民币。
Third, as from tomorrow, our diplomatic and consular missions around the world will slash consular legalization fees by as much as two-thirds.The fee reduction is expected to save Chinese citizens and businesses more than 10 million yuan every year.俄通-塔斯社记者:中方希望通过今年主办上合组织青岛峰会实现什么目标? TASS: What does China hope to accomplish at the Qingdao Summit it will host? 王毅:上合组织是在中国诞生的,青岛峰会是扩员后的首次峰会。我们欢迎上合峰会再次在中国举行,期待上合组织从青岛再出发。我们愿与各成员方共同努力,推动峰会实现三大目标:
Wang Yi: The Shanghai Cooperation Organization was born in China, and the Qingdao Summit will be the first one after the SCO admitted new members.We welcome the SCO back to China and expect it to embark on a new journey in Qingdao.China looks forward to working with other members to achieve three goals at the summit: 一是增强凝聚力。以互信、互利、平等、协商为核心的“上海精神”,是上合组织创立时的初心所在。我们将与各成员一道,高举“上海精神”这一旗帜,增进成员间的互信与团结,构建更加紧密的上合命运共同体。
First, making the SCO more cohesive.The Shanghai Spirit of mutual trust, mutual benefit and equal-footed consultation encapsulates the founding principle of our Organization.China will work with other members to uphold this spirit, enhance trust and solidarity, and build a more close-knit SCO community of shared future.二是提升行动力。务实高效、互利共赢的合作是上合组织发展的动力源泉。我们将和各成员一道,制定《上合组织成员国长期睦邻友好合作条约》未来5年实施纲要,签署批准一系列涉及安全、经贸、环保和人文等领域的决议与合作文件,助力成员国参与“一带一路”建设,实现上合组织的全方位发展。
Second, making the SCO more effective.Our organization is driven by results-oriented, efficient and mutually beneficial cooperation.China will work with other members to promote its all-round development, including developing a five-year outline for the implementation of the Treaty on Long-term Good-neighborliness, Friendship and Cooperation, concluding or ratifying a number of resolutions or documents concerning our security, economic, environmental and cultural cooperation, and advancing Belt and Road projects in SCO member states.三是扩大影响力。维护本地区乃至世界的和平稳定,是上合组织义不容辞的国际责任。我们将和各成员一道,积极回应国际社会期待,就重大国际和地区问题发出更响亮的上合声音,为区域合作和全球经济治理发挥更积极的上合作用。Third, making the SCO more influential.Our Organization has a bounden duty to maintain peace and stability in our region and beyond.China will work with other members to help it meet international expectations, take a clearer stand on major international and regional issues, and play a more active role in regional cooperation and global economic governance.总之,青岛峰会将成为上合组织发展进程中一座新的里程碑,开启这一新型区域组织的新时代。
To sum up, we will make the Qingdao Summit a new milestone in the development of the SCO and launch this new type of regional organization into a new era.中评社记者:继冈比亚和圣普之后,巴拿马在去年选择同台湾“断交”,与大陆建交。台湾舆论所担心的“雪崩式断交潮”会否会出现?
China Review News: Following the example of Gambia as well as São Tomé and Príncipe, Panama decided last year to switch diplomatic relations from Taipei to Beijing.Will Taiwan face “an avalanche of ruptured diplomatic ties”, as its media have feared? 王毅:世界上只有一个中国,台湾是中国不可分割的一部分,这已是国际社会多年来形成的共识。坚持一个中国原则,不与台湾进行官方往来也已成为各国遵循的国际准则之一。同唯一合法代表全中国的中华人民共和国政府建立外交关系,开展正常合作,显然是顺应时代潮流的正确选择,也完全符合这些国家和人民的自身和长远利益,当然是大势所趋,而且势不可挡。
Wang Yi: There is only one China in the world and Taiwan is an inseparable part of China.This has been the consensus of the international community for decades.Adhering to the one-China principle and not having official ties with Taiwan has become a generally observed norm in international relations.It is obviously a correct choice in line with the tide of history to establish diplomatic relations and carry out regular cooperation with the government of the People’s Republic of China, the sole legal representative of the whole of China.Such a choice would best serve the immediate and long-term interests of the countries and peoples in question.Of course, it is the trend of the future, and no one can stop it.承认“九二共识”、认同两岸同属一中是推进两岸关系向前发展的关键所在。解铃还须系铃人。台湾当局应该尽快回到“九二共识”的正确轨道上来,这样两岸关系才能重新开辟和平发展的光明前景。
The key to unlocking the cross-Straits stalemate lies in recognizing the 1992 Consensus and acknowledging that the two sides of the Taiwan Straits belong to one and the same China.The party that has locked the door must unlock it.The Taiwan authorities should return to the 1992 Consensus as soon as possible.This correct move will usher in a bright future for the peaceful development of cross-Straits relations.埃菲社记者:美方呼吁拉美国家警惕中国在该地区的影响。你怎么看?
Agencia EFE: The United States warned Latin American countries about the growing Chinese influence in the region.What is your response? 王毅:中拉合作是发展中国家之间的相互帮助和相互支持,不针对和取代谁,也无意动谁的奶酪。中拉合作之所以发展这么快,是因为符合拉美国家的需求,改善了拉美国家的民生,提高了拉美国家的自主发展能力。过去5年,习近平主席三次踏上拉美大陆,足迹遍及10个拉美国家。中拉合作不断拓展深化,提质升级。中国目前已是许多拉美国家的主要贸易伙伴,中国企业为拉美累计创造了180多万个就业岗位。中国古人云:“志合者,不以山海为远”。这恰如其分地反映了当前的中拉关系。宽广的太平洋正把中拉双方联接在一起,成为跨越万水千山的合作伙伴。
Wang Yi: China and Latin American countries are helping and supporting each other as fellow developing countries.Our cooperation does not target or seek to replace anyone, and China is not going to move anyone’s “cheese”, so to speak.China’s cooperation with the region has grown rapidly because it suits its needs, improves lives there and boosts its capacity for self-driven growth.During the last five years, President Xi has visited Latin America and the Caribbean three times, taking in ten countries.Our cooperation has deepened, expanded and moved up the value chain.China has become a key trading partner for many in the hemisphere.Chinese businesses and investors have created more than 1.8 million local jobs.The Chinese saying “nothing, not even mountains or oceans, can separate those with a shared goal” aptly describes the state of our relations with Latin America and the Caribbean.The vast Pacific Ocean binds us together, making us partners in cooperation, whatever may stand between us.新华社记者:总书记在十九大报告中指出,全面推进中国特色大国外交,推动建设新型国际关系,推动构建人类命运共同体。你如何展望今后一个时期的中国特色大国外交?
Xinhua News Agency: In his report to the 19th Party Congress, General Secretary Xi called for making all-round efforts in the pursuit of major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics, and for building a new type of international relations and a global community with a shared future.How do you envisage China’s distinctive major-country diplomacy going forward? 王毅:总书记在党的十九大报告中强调,中国共产党不仅要为中国人民谋幸福,也要为人类进步事业而奋斗。中国共产党始终把为人类作出新的更大贡献作为自己的使命。
Wang Yi: In his report to the 19th Party Congress, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that the Communist Party of China will strive for both the well-being of the Chinese people and human progress.To make new and greater contributions for humanity is our Party’s abiding mission.秉持这样的信念和担当,我们将进一步拓展广阔的格局。中国将在为自身发展营造更好外部环境的同时,放眼全球、胸怀世界,与各国携手构建人类命运共同体,把建设相互尊重、公平正义、合作共赢的新型国际关系和持久和平、普遍安全、共同繁荣、开放包容、清洁美丽的世界作为中国外交的总体方向和目标。
A committed and responsible China will adopt a more visionary foreign policy.While securing an enabling environment for its own development, China will be concerned with the welfare of humanity and partner with other countries to build a global community of shared future.Our vision is to forge a new type of international relations that features mutual respect, fairness, justice and win-win cooperation and to build an open, inclusive, clean and beautiful world that enjoys lasting peace, universal security and common prosperity.我们将进一步展现博大的胸怀。无论发展到什么程度,中国都会坚持大小国家一律平等,坚持尊重不同文明体制,坚持正确义利观,反对以大欺小,反对恃强凌弱。为弱小国家主持公道,帮助欠发达国家实现发展。
We will have a broader mind.No matter what stage of development it reaches, China will stand for the equality of all countries, large or small, and will respect different civilizations and systems.China will put the greater good before its self-interest, and oppose the practice of the big and strong bullying the small and weak.China will stand up for small and weak countries, and help less developed countries achieve better growth.我们将进一步发挥积极的作用。中国将顺应国际社会越来越多的期待,秉持共商共建共享的全球治理观,更加积极地参与全球治理体系的改革建设,更加建设性地参与地区和国际热点问题的政治解决,更加有效地与各方携手应对各种全球性挑战。
And we will play a more active role.China will strive to meet growing international expectations and approach global governance on the basis of extensive consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits.China will be more active in helping to reform and improve the global governance system, find more constructive ways to settle regional and international issues by political means, and forge more effective partnerships to address various global challenges.大道之行,天下为公。我们将坚定不移维护好国家主权和民族尊严,坚定不移站在国际正义和人类进步一边,坚定不移做世界和平的建设者、全球发展的贡献者、国际秩序的维护者。An ancient Chinese classic teaches that “when justice prevails, the world will be one community”.We are determined to uphold our country’s sovereignty and dignity.We are determined to be on the side of international justice and human progress.We are determined to build world peace, contribute to global prosperity and uphold the international order.
第五篇:外交部部长王毅在外交部2015年新年招待会上的致辞
外交部部长王毅在外交部2015年新年招待会上的致辞
尊敬的杨洁篪国务委员和夫人,尊敬的各位使节及夫人,女士们,先生们,朋友们:
时间过得真快,转眼又到了一年一度辞旧迎新的时刻。首先,我谨代表中国外交部,向各位使节及夫人致以最诚挚的问候!对各兄弟部门一年来给予外交工作的大力支持表示最衷心的感谢!
2014年是中国全面深化改革的开局之年。以习近平同志为核心的党中央围绕实现“两个一百年”奋斗目标,在治国理政方面接连推出重大举措,带领13亿中国人民在建设中国特色社会主义的道路上取得了一系列新的重大成就。
继去年十八届三中全会开启全面深化改革历史进程之后,今年中共中央又召开了十八届四中全会,作出全面推进依法治国的战略部署,全面深化改革与全面推进法治相互支撑、相互促进,必将加快全面建成小康社会的前进步伐,并为实现中华民族伟大复兴的中国梦奠定更为坚实的基础。
面对持续低迷的国际经济形势,中国经济保持定力,顶住压力,精准发力,定向调控,平稳运行,使经济增长保持在合理区间,年初制定的一系列宏观指标都将顺利实现。中国经济不仅继续在全球独占鳌头,而且继续为世界发展提供“中国机遇”。据测算,2014年中国经济增长对世界经济的贡献率达到27.8%,对亚洲的贡献率更保持在50%以上。
今天上午,中央经济工作会议刚刚胜利闭幕。这次会议确定了中国经济发展继续稳中求进的总基调,发出了中国经济进入新常态的积极信号。
中国经济进入新常态,意味着我们将适应并引领经济从高速增长转向中高速增长的合理变化,着力将经济发展方式从规模速度型转为质量效益型。更加突出创新驱动,更加注重改善民生,更加推进改革开放。不仅要走出一条绿色低碳的可持续发展道路,造福于中国人民,也要不断深化互利共赢的开放战略,实现与世界的共同繁荣。
女士们,先生们,朋友们,2014年是中国外交全面进取的丰收之年。我们积极构建全球伙伴关系网络,已同世界上67个国家、5个地区组织建立了72对不同形式的伙伴关系,用结伴但不结盟的全新实践诠释着中国特色大国外交的理念。
我们着眼于实现中国与欧亚各国的共同发展,积极弘扬古丝绸之路互学互鉴、和睦共处的精神,提出并推进“一带一路”合作构想,目前已有沿线50多个国家响应参与。亚洲基础设施投资银行开始起步,丝路基金已经设立,为“一带一路”建设提供了有力支撑。
我们成功举办亚洲相互协作与信任措施会议以及亚太经合组织领导人非正式会议两场国际盛会,倡导共同、综合、合作与可持续的亚洲安全观,明确建设面向未来的亚太伙伴关系,启动亚太自贸区进程并确定相关路线图,批准《亚太经合组织互联互通蓝图》,在维护地区和平安全、促进亚太合作发展的历史进程中留下了深刻中国印记。
我们积极参与解决伊朗核、朝鲜半岛、乌克兰、巴以冲突、南苏丹国内冲突、反恐、埃博拉疫情等一系列重大热点问题,秉持客观公正立场,积极劝和促谈,为维护国际地区的和平稳定发挥了负责任大国作用。
不久前,党中央召开了新中国成立以来的第二次外事工作会议,对新形势下的中国外交作出全面部署。这次会议是在中华民族伟大复兴进入关键历史时期召开的一次重要会议。面对中国同国际社会联系与互动日趋紧密的新形势,明确了中国要培育有自己特色的大国外交理念;要建立以合作共赢为核心的新型国际关系;要争取世界各国对中国梦的理解和支持,致力于追求中国人民和各国人民的共同福祉。中国外交站在了一个新的历史起点上,中国与世界的关系必将揭开新的历史篇章。
女士们,先生们,朋友们,即将到来的2015年对世界和中国来说,都是具有重要标志性意义的年份。国际社会将共同纪念世界反法西斯战争胜利70周年,也将共同制定2015年后发展议程;中国人民将隆重纪念抗日战争胜利70周年,并继续推进全面深化改革和全面依法治国进程。和平与发展将成为世界聚焦的两大议题,也将是中国外交的两大任务。
新的一年,我们将在以习近平同志为核心的党中央领导下,以中央外事工作会议精神为指引,积极践行中国特色大国外交理念,为实现中华民族伟大复兴的中国梦提供有力保障,为维护世界和平发展事业作出新的贡献。
我们将探索构建以合作共赢为核心的新型国际关系。继续推进中美新型大国关系建设,保持中俄全面战略协作伙伴关系的高水平运行,以构建和平、增长、改革、文明四大伙伴深化中欧互利共赢的全面战略伙伴关系,同时加强同印度、巴西、南非等新兴大国的战略务实合作。进一步弘扬亲诚惠容的周边外交理念,推进同周边国家的利益共同体和命运共同体建设。
我们将坚持贯彻正确义利观。努力做到义利并举,以义为先,弘义融利,不断加强同发展中国家团结合作,维护发展中国家正当权益,致力于促进中国与广大发展中国家的共同振兴。
我们将本着共商、共建、共享原则,继续推进“一带一路”建设。启动亚投行,用好丝路基金,加强互联互通基础设施建设,加快自贸区谈判进程,致力于亚太各种双边和区域合作安排的相互包容与相互促进。
外交部部长王毅在外交部2015年新年招待会上的致辞
我们将坚定维护世界和平与发展。同国际社会一道,捍卫国际正义和战后秩序,反对任何开历史倒车的言行。我们将推动制定符合世界各国共同利益,尤其是照顾到广大发展中国家利益的2015年后发展议程,为人类整体发展与进步作出新的贡献。
各位使节、代表和夫人,旧岁已展千重锦,新年更进百尺竿。2015年,我们期待中外友好交流合作事业百尺竿头、更进一步。长期以来,各位使节为增进中国与世界各国的友谊与合作付出了辛勤汗水和大量心血,我要再次向你们表示衷心的感谢。中国外交部将一如既往地为大家在华工作和生活提供便利,为中国与世界各国的和平相处、共同发展继续作出不懈努力。
现在,我提议:
为中国人民实现民族振兴的伟大梦想,为世界各国人民的美好梦想,为各位来宾的健康,干杯!
