Towards Greater Cooperation and Common Development Between East Asia
and Latin America —Remarks at the Fourth Foreign Ministers' Meeting of the Forum for East Asia-Latin America Cooperation by H.E.Yang Jiechi, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the People’s
Republic of China Tokyo, 16 January 2010 尊敬的主席先生,各位同事:
Mr.Chair, Dear Colleagues,很高兴来到东京出席东亚-拉美合作论坛第四届外长会。东道国日本为会议作了周到安排,我对此表示感谢。中方热烈欢迎蒙古加入亚拉论坛。
It is a real pleasure to be here in Tokyo for the Fourth Foreign Ministers’ Meeting of the Forum for East Asia-Latin America Cooperation(FEALAC).Let me first thank our host Japan for the thoughtful arrangements.China warmly welcomes Mongolia to FEALAC.近日,海地发生强烈地震,造成重大人员伤亡和财产损失。借此机会,我谨代表中方再次向海地人民表示哀悼和慰问。中国政府已决定向海地提供价值3000万元人民币的人道主义紧急物资援助,中国红十字会总会决定向海地提供100万美元的国际人道主义紧急援款,中国国际救援队,其中包括医疗人员已抵达海地展开营救工作。中方愿与国际社会一道为海地克服暂时困难,早日重建家园提供力所能及的帮助。
A massive earthquake hit Haiti a few days ago and has inflicted heavy casualties and property losses.I wish to take this opportunity to once again express, on behalf of China, condolences and sympathies to the people of Haiti.The Chinese government has decided to provide Haiti with 30 million RMB yuan of humanitarian emergency supplies, and the Red Cross Society of China has decided to provide one million US dollars in humanitarian emergency assistance to Haiti.China’s international rescue team, including medical workers, has arrived in Haiti and started rescue work on the ground.China is ready to work with the international community and do what it can to help Haiti overcome the immediate difficulties and rebuild its homeland at an early date.当前,国际形势正在继续发生复杂深刻变化,世界多极化和经济全球化深入发展,国际格局正在经历大变革、大调整。饱受国际金融危机冲击的世界经济形势初有好转,但基础仍不牢固,深层次问题依然存在。气候变化、粮食安全、公共卫生安全、重大自然灾害等全球性问题日益突出。面对严峻挑战,世界各国相互依存进一步加深,维护和平,促进发展的愿望更加强烈。加强协商、凝聚共识、深化合作、共克挑战是当前世界各国的共同心声。The world is undergoing profound and complex changes.The process towards a multi-polar world and economic globalization is gathering momentum, and major transformation and adjustments are taking place in the international landscape.The world economy, seriously battered by the financial crisis, has started to turn for the better, but the recovery is yet to be put on a solid footing and the deep-seated problems remain unsolved.Climate change, food security, public health security, natural disasters and other global issues are becoming increasingly acute.In the face of these grave challenges, countries have become all the more interdependent and made an even stronger appeal for peace and development.It is our shared hope to increase consultation, build consensus, deepen cooperation and tackle challenges together.在东亚-拉美合作论坛成立10周年之际,来自论坛34个成员国的外长或代表齐聚一堂,就亚拉国家共同关心的国际金融危机、环境和可持续发展、社会发展等问题深入探讨,共商合作发展之计,具有重要而深远的意义。为此,中方提出以下主张:
It is against such a backdrop that we, foreign ministers and representatives from the 34 FEALAC members, are gathered here today for an in-depth exchange of views on issues of common interest, including the international financial crisis, the environment, sustainable development and social progress.We will jointly explore ways for stronger cooperation and development.Our meeting, which coincides with FEALAC’s 10th anniversary, will be of far-reaching significance.China wishes to take this opportunity to propose the following:
第一,加强合作,推动世界经济全面恢复增长。目前国际金融危机最困难的时期已经过去,世界经济出现企稳回升势头,今年世界经济形势可能好于去年,但国际金融危机的影响仍在继续显现。在这关键时刻,我们应保持宏观经济政策的连续性和稳定性,进一步采取有力措施,促进本国经济增长,促进消费、扩大内需。我们应推进国际金融体系改革,完善国际经济治理机制,坚决反对和抵制各种形式的保护主义,推动世界经济全面复苏。国际社会应切实关注发展中国家,特别是最不发达国家面临的严重困难和危机,尽快落实在发展援助、贸易融资、优惠贷款等方面所作的承诺,帮助发展中国家稳定金融市场,提高经济发展水平,早日落实联合国千年发展目标。
First, step up cooperation to achieve a full global economic recovery.The worst part of the financial crisis is behind us.The world economy is stabilizing and picking up, and global economic outlook this year is likely to be better than that of last year.However, we are still under the impact of the financial crisis.This is a moment of truth.We must maintain the consistency and stability of our macroeconomic policies and take further forceful measures to boost our economic growth, consumption and demand.We must press ahead with the reform of the international financial system, improve the global economic governance regime, firmly oppose and reject all forms of protectionism, and work for a full economic rebound worldwide.The international community should pay real attention to the enormous difficulties and crises facing developing countries, the least developed countries in particular, take quick steps to fulfill the commitments on development aid, trade finance and concessional loans, and help developing countries bring stability to their financial markets, raise the level of economic growth and attain the UN Millennium Development Goals at an early date.中国作为发展中大国,一直以积极、负责的态度参与应对金融危机的国际合作。中方愿意同国际社会一道,为世界经济彻底走出危机继续作出积极努力和贡献。
As a big developing country, China has played an active and responsible part in the international effort to confront the financial crisis.We will continue to work vigorously with the rest of the international community to steer the world economy out of the crisis.第二,加强协调,共同促进环境和可持续发展。环境与可持续发展问题攸关世界各国长远利益,各国均需要努力形成资源节约、环境友好的生产方式、生活方式和消费模式,实现经济增长、社会发展、环境保护相协调。在推动经济恢复增长的同时,我们应优化能源结构,推进产业升级,大力发展绿色经济。我们应加强国际新兴产业合作,积极培育世界经济新的增长点。中国将促进环境和可持续发展作为重要战略任务,确立了以人为本、全面协调可持续的发展战略。中方愿与各方一道,加强合作,分享经验,共同促进全球和地区可持续发展。
Second, step up coordination to promote environmental protection and sustainable development.Environmental protection and sustainable development are vital to the long-term interests of all countries.We should all cultivate a resource-efficient and environment-friendly model of production, way of life and pattern of consumption and achieve a balance among economic growth, social development and environmental protection.While restoring growth, we should optimize energy mix, upgrade industries and develop a green economy.We should reinforce international cooperation on new industries and nurture new growth areas in the world economy.China has identified environmental protection and sustainable development as a strategic priority and adopted a development strategy that puts people’s interests first and emphasizes comprehensive, coordinated and sustainable development.China will work closely with all other parties to share experiences and promote sustainable development regionally and globally.去年12月举行的哥本哈根气候变化会议取得了积极成果。中方主张以《联合国气候变化框架公约》和《京都议定书》为基本框架,坚持“共同但有区别的责任”原则,按照“巴厘路线图”双轨谈判机制,积极推动下一阶段磋商,继续推进国际合作应对气候变化进程。中国支持《哥本哈根协议》体现的共识,将认真落实自身承诺,并将继续坚定支持公约谈判进程,支持联合国发挥主导作用。我们愿与各方共同努力,为应对气候变化作出不懈努力和积极贡献。
The Copenhagen conference last December produced positive outcomes.China maintains that it is imperative to uphold the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and its Kyoto Protocol as the basic framework, follow the principle of “common but differentiated responsibilities”, stick to the dual-track negotiation mechanism under the Bali Roadmap, and actively push forward the ensuing consultations and the process of international cooperation.China subscribes to the consensus shown in the Copenhagen Accord.We will honor our commitment and continue to firmly support the negotiation process under the Convention and the leading role of the United Nations.We are ready to join all other parties in an unremitting effort and make positive contribution to the fight against climate change.第三,加强统筹,努力推进社会领域合作。让经济全球化和经济发展成果惠及所有国家和地区、惠及所有人群,既是经济社会发展的目的,也是文明进步的标志。为此,我们应结合应对国际金融危机,优化产业结构和经济发展质量,提高全社会就业水平,增强抵御危机和风险的能力。应加强社会保障网络建设,着力解决教育、医疗、养老、住房等民生问题,实现发展为了人民、发展依靠人民、发展成果由人民共享。中国高度重视民生,努力推动社会发展,促进社会和谐,愿与世界各国相互借鉴,深化合作,努力建设持久和平、共同繁荣的和谐世界。
Third, step up overall planning to bolster cooperation in social fields.People of all countries and regions should share the benefits of economic globalization and development.This is the objective of economic and social progress and a hallmark of advances in civilization.As part of a broader response to the financial crisis, we should upgrade the industrial structure, raise the quality of economic growth, increase overall employment, and enhance the capacity to weather crises and risks.We need to strengthen the social safety net and focus on issues that concern people’s well-being such as education, health care, old-age support and housing.This is the way to ensure that our development is for the people and by the people and its benefits are shared among the people.With people’s well-being high on its agenda, China has been working hard to promote social progress and harmony.It is our sincere desire to exchange experiences and deepen cooperation with other countries so that together, we will build a harmonious world of enduring peace and common prosperity.各位同事,Dear Colleagues,国际形势的新变化和亚拉合作的新发展对论坛建设提出了新要求。亚拉论坛也应该顺应形势,与时俱进。论坛合作应以增进了解为基石,加强亚拉各国间全方位交流,不断丰富和分享各自发展的成功经验,进一步夯实亚拉友好合作的基础,提升亚拉大家庭意识。论坛合作应以务实合作为抓手,通过加强两地区在经贸、文化、科技等领域的优势互补,实现互利共赢,共同发展。论坛合作应以应对全球性挑战为共同目标,加强沟通和协调,凝聚共识,不断扩大利益融合,表达共同立场,为全球合作做出更大贡献。论坛合作应以加强论坛机制为保障,坚持协商一致,整合资源,提高效率,稳步落实有关改革措施,打造更加高效务实的交流合作平台。
Recent developments in the international environment and progress in East Asia-Latin America cooperation have presented new tasks for FEALAC.The forum should follow the trend and advance with the changing times.We should enhance mutual understanding — the cornerstone of our cooperation.We should increase the all-dimensional exchanges among East Asian and Latin American countries, enrich and share the success stories in our development, solidify the foundation of our friendship and cooperation, and reinforce the awareness of an East Asia-Latin America family.We should focus on practical cooperation.We should bring into full play the complementarities between the two regions in economy, trade, culture, science, technology and other sectors to achieve mutual benefit and common progress.We should make countering global challenges our shared objective.We should, through intensified communication and coordination, broaden consensus and converging interests, make our common stand heard and play a bigger part in global cooperation.We should strengthen the forum’s institution building.We should adhere to the principle of consensus, integrate our resources, and steadily implement the reform measures to make our forum a more efficient and pragmatic platform for exchanges and cooperation.中国作为亚拉大家庭的一员,一贯重视并积极参与亚拉论坛各领域交流与合作。10年来在多个领域举办了不同形式的合作项目,增进了相互了解,推动了务实合作。中方愿与论坛成员一道,为促进东亚、拉美两大区域的合作和论坛发展作出新的贡献。在此,我愿向各位宣布,中方将在论坛框架下举办“生物质能源论坛”、“东亚-拉美中小企业合作论坛”、“东亚-拉美区域金融体系比较研讨会”、“农业技术培训班”和“东方文化研究计划”等一批新项目,并将继续承办“拉美高级外交官访华团”、“拉美和加勒比青年外交官讲习班”两个传统项目,欢迎论坛各成员积极派员赴华参与上述项目。As a member of the East Asia-Latin America family, China values and has actively participated in FEALAC exchanges and cooperation in various fields.Over the past decade, China has hosted diverse forms of cooperation projects in many areas, which have contributed to mutual understanding and practical cooperation.China is ready to work with other members and make new contribution to the cooperation between the two regions and the development of FEALAC.I would like to announce here that China will, under the framework of the forum, undertake a number of new programs, including a biomass energy forum, a forum on East Asia-Latin America SMEs cooperation, a symposium on comparative studies on regional financial systems in East Asia and Latin America, an agro-technology training course and an Oriental cultural research program.Meanwhile, we will continue to host the China Tour for Senior Diplomats from Latin America and Caribbean Countries and the Workshop for Young Diplomats from Latin America and Caribbean Countries.We look forward to welcoming participants from your countries to these programs.各位同事,Dear Colleagues,我们已经拥有10年的合作经验,更加强烈的合作愿望,不断完善的合作机制,亚拉论坛合作正处于新的历史起点上。让我们携起手来,进一步加强交流与合作,努力推动论坛发展进程,共同谱写亚拉合作新篇章!
Ten years of experience, a stronger desire for cooperation and better developed mechanisms have put FEALAC at a new historical starting point.Let us join hands to intensify exchanges and cooperation, advance the development of the forum and write a new chapter in East Asia-Latin America cooperation.

Remarks by Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi at the Public Day of the Foreign Ministry With the Theme of the Forum on China-Africa
Cooperation
October 2009
尊敬的非洲驻华使团长、多哥大使塔•阿马阁下,各位使节,各位朋友,Your Excellency Mr.Nolana Ta Ama, Dean of the African Diplomatic Corps, Ambassador of the Republic of Togo,Diplomatic Envoys,Dear Friends,下午好!在中非合作论坛第四届部长级会议即将召开之际,外交部举办“中非合作论坛”主题开放日,我谨代表外交部对各位朋友的到来表示热烈的欢迎。今天参加活动的公众中,有的曾凭借高超的医疗技术为非洲人民服务多年,有的曾将青春与汗水抛洒在坦赞铁路上,有的通过经贸往来为中非人民创造机会与财富,还有的是我们对非工作外交官的亲朋好友,大家都在通过自己的努力,以各种方式支持中非关系发展,浇灌着中非友谊之花。今天在座的,还有来自非洲各国的使节、留学生和媒体朋友,你们为促进中非相互了解和理解发挥着不可替代的作用。在这里,我愿对所有到场的朋友们说一声,为了中非合作和友谊,大家辛苦了,谢谢你们!
Good afternoon!In the run-up to the Fourth FOCAC Ministerial
Conference, I wish to warmly welcome all the friends, on behalf of the foreign ministry, to this Public day with the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation(FOCAC)as the theme.Among the public representatives present here today, some spent years servicing African people with their medical expertise, some sweated for the construction of the Tanzania-Zambia Railway in their youth, some create opportunities and wealth for our two peoples by growing business ties, and others are families and friends of Chinese diplomats working on China-Africa relations.All of you have worked hard, in your own ways, to support the growth of China-Africa relations and friendship.We also have with us today African diplomatic envoys, students and friends from the
press.You play an irreplaceable role in promoting China-Africa mutual understanding.Here, I wish to say a big thank you to all the friends here for your dedication to China-Africa cooperation and friendship.中国和非洲同为人类文明发祥地,友好交往源远流长,最早可追溯到公元前2世纪。历史上传为佳话的是,中国明代航海家郑和七下西洋,曾4次到过现在的索马里、肯尼亚等东非沿岸,至今留下许多动人的传说。20世纪中叶,随着新中国的诞生和广大非洲国家相继获得独立,中国与非洲国家陆续建立了外交关系,中非友好续谱新篇。半个多世纪以来,中非传统友谊和务实合作经受住了时间和国际风云变幻的考验,历久弥坚。
Both China and Africa are cradles of human civilizations.Our friendship and exchanges can be traced back to the 2nd Century AD.It is worth noting that in the Ming Dynasty, Chinese navigator Zheng He led a fleet to the Western Seas on seven voyages, and, for four times, he reached the east coast of Africa, which are now Somalia and Kenya.Many of his stories are still told today.In the mid 20th Century, after the People's Republic of China was founded and most African countries gained independence, China and African countries established diplomatic
relations, opening a new chapter in the annals of our friendship.In the past fifty years and more, China-Africa traditional friendship and
practical cooperation have withstood the test of time and changes in the international arena and emerged even stronger.进入21世纪,为了共谋发展,同迎挑战,中国和非洲友好国家共创了中非合作论坛,从2000年到今天,已走过了9个春秋。在中非双方的高度重视和精心培育下,论坛机制日臻完善,作用日益突出,影响不断扩大。
At the dawn of the 21st Century, China and friendly African countries jointly launched FOCAC in 2000 to seek development and meet
challenges together.Over the past nine years, China and Africa have given top priority to and put much time and energy into FOCAC.With full-fledged mechanisms, FOCAC is playing a bigger role with
increasingly greater influence.论坛是引领中非友好的旗帜。2000年首届部长级会议中非建立“长期稳定、平等互利的新型伙伴关系”,2003年第二届部长级会议中非双方提出进一步巩固和发展“长期稳定、平等互利、全面合作的新型伙伴关系”,2006年北京峰会上胡锦涛主席代表中国政府宣布深受非洲国家欢迎的8项举措,中非领导人一致同意建立和发展中非新型战略伙伴关系,论坛引领中非友好合作关系又好又快地向前推进。
Under the flag of FOCAC, China-Africa friendship has flourished.At the First Ministerial Conference in 2000, we committed ourselves to a new China-Africa partnership featuring long-term stability, equality and mutual benefit.At the Second Ministerial Conference in 2003, we set out to boost comprehensive cooperation under this new partnership.At the Beijing Summit in 2006, President Hu Jintao announced, on behalf of the Chinese government, eight measures that have been well
received by African countries.Chinese and African leaders agreed at the summit to build a new type of China-Africa strategic partnership.FOCAC has acted as a spearhead in the sound and fast growth of China-Africa friendly relations and cooperation.论坛是中非进行集体对话的重要平台。双方在论坛框架下建立了部长级会议、外长级政治对话、高官级会议和论坛中方后续行动委员会与非洲驻华使团磋商等机制。部长会每三年举行一届,轮流在中国和非洲国家召开。中非双方利用论坛这一平台,就中非关系和共同关心的国际和地区问题深入交换意见,协调双方立场,加强相互支持。
FOCAC is an important platform for China-Africa collective dialogue.Under it, there are mechanisms including ministerial conference, political dialogue at the foreign ministers' level, senior officials' meeting and consultations between the Secretariat of the Chinese Follow-up Committee of FOCAC and the African diplomatic corps in China.The ministerial conference takes place every three years in China and Africa alternately.FOCAC has brought China and Africa together for in-depth exchange of views on our relations and
international and regional issues of common interest, and for better coordination and stronger mutual support.论坛是中非开展务实合作的有效机制。每届部长会都制定既具指导性又切实可操作的纲领性合作文件,对会后三年双方各领域合作进行全面规划。论坛已成为中非友好合作的一大国际品牌,受到国际社会的广泛关注,对发展中国家间加强合作具有示范作用,也带动了国际社会更加重视非洲并加大对非投入。
FOCAC is an effective mechanism for China-Africa practical cooperation.Every ministerial conference has adopted feasible plans to guide cooperation across the board in the next three years.FOCAC has become an international brand of China-Africa friendship and
cooperation, drawing worldwide interest.It showcases the
strengthened cooperation among developing countries and encourages the international community to pay more attention to and increase input in Africa.再过一周,论坛第四届部长级会议将在埃及沙姆沙伊赫召开。中国国务院总理温家宝将同埃及总统穆巴拉克和部分非洲国家领导人一起出席开幕式,并发表重要讲话。中国政府还将宣布对非合作新举措。相信这次会议将在新形势下进一步推动中非关系的发展,成为中非友好史上新的里程碑。
In a week's time, the Fourth FOCAC Ministerial Conference will take place in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt.Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao, together with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and some other African leaders, will attend and speak at the opening ceremony.He will announce the Chinese government's new measures for cooperation with Africa.I believe this conference will further promote the growth of China-Africa
relations in the new era and become another milestone in the history of China-Africa friendship.朋友们,Dear Friends,中国人民同非洲人民是心心相印的朋友、兄弟。不管是过去、现在,还是将来,中国人民都将永远珍视同非洲人民的传统友谊,将始终视非洲人民为可以信赖和依靠的全天候朋友。回顾过去,我们为中非友谊而自豪,面向未来,我们需要更多的人,特别是中非年轻一代,共同巩固和延伸中非友谊的桥梁。我们有理由相信,在中非人民的共同努力下,中非合作一定会登上一个更高台阶!中非友谊一定会结出更美丽的花朵。
The Chinese people are bosom friends and brothers of the African
people.We cherish our traditional friendship with the African people, and take African people as our reliable and trustworthy all-weather friends.Looking back, we are proud of our friendship.Looking ahead, we need more people, young Chinese and Africans in particular, to
deepen and strengthen China-Africa friendship.We have every reason to be confident that our two peoples will work together to bring our cooperation to a higher plane and make our friendship even more fruitful!

杨洁篪外长在慕尼黑安全政策会议上的精彩答问 Question and answer session with Chinese FM at Munich Security Conference
慕尼黑安全政策会议以全球安全领域的“达沃斯论坛”闻名于世。2月5日,杨洁篪外长在慕尼黑安全政策会议上发表了《变化中的中国与世界》的演讲,并回答了提问。摘要如下:
主持人:外长先生同意回答几个问题。我们先请来自巴黎的Francois(音)先生提问。
Moderator: The Foreign Minister has agreed to take a couple of questions.Maybe we can start with Francois [ph.] from Paris.问题一:谢谢部长先生。您刚才的演讲内容丰富,极有见地。我的问题是关于美中关系中的台湾问题,这个问题您在演讲中几乎没有谈及。中国已就美宣布对台军售采取相应措施,这些措施比以往美国对台军售后中国所采取措施更加严厉。你们这样做是因为中国感到自身更加强大了,还是因为你们认为此次美国对台军售数额更大、影响更恶劣呢?
Question: Thank you, Minister, for a broad-ranging and extremely thoughtful speech.The question I would like to ask you is an issue you hardly touched upon.And that is American-Chinese relations relating to Taiwan.China has taken measures in response to the U.S.announcement of arms sales to Taiwan, which go further than similar measures taken by Beijing when previous arms sales were made by the United States to Taiwan.The fact that you are going further than you did in the past, is it the consequence of China feeling stronger or is this the consequence of the recent arms sales to Taiwan being considered bigger and worse than previous U.S.arms sales to Taiwan?
杨外长:中国是不是感到自身更加强大了呢?是的,中国是越来越强大。同时,中国是不是感到自身在社会和经济发展方面还比较薄弱呢?我想答案同样是肯定的。
Yang: Is China feeling stronger? Yes, China is growing from strength to strength.Does China feel weak in terms of social and economic development in China? Yes.我有点出汗,不是因为紧张——我回答类似问题已经不知道多少遍了——而是因为这里的暖气实在太足了。在中国的长江以南地区,很多人冬天供暖还是个难题。而欧洲许多地区从地理上看,相当于中国的南方地区,所以如果你们想和我讨论气候变化问题,请先关掉暖气,这样我们大家才平等。我想这个要求不过分。看来,要讨论气候变化问题,我们之间要有更多的理解。
I perspire a little, not because I am nervous – I have been through this thing God knows how many times – but because the central heating here is very good.In China, south of the Yangtze River, many of my countrymen still have no central heating.Just to give you an idea, many parts of Europe are at roughly the same latitude as southern China.So I would not be outrageous in saying that if you would like to talk about climate change with me, you'd better shut off all your central heating so that we are on an equal footing.I hope there can be more mutual understanding when we talk about climate change.关于美国对台军售问题,早在上世纪八十年代,美国就在中美“八?一七”公报中承诺,美方向台湾出售的武器在性能和数量上将不超过中美建交后近几年供应的水平,美方准备逐步减少对台湾的武器出售,并经过一段时间导致最后的解决。再看看现在,美国一方面称中国为伙伴,另一方面却宣布向中国的台湾地区出售价值64亿美元的先进武器。这显然违背了国与国关系准则,违反了中美三个联合公报。中国政府和人民完全有理由对此感到强烈愤慨。美方不顾中方多次严正交涉,执意进行对台军售。中国政府和人民当然要采取行动,这是中国主权范围内的事情。
About the U.S.arms sales to Taiwan, let me say that back in the early 1980s, China and the United States issued the August 17th Communiqué.In it, the United States made the commitment that its arms sales to Taiwan will not exceed, either in qualitative or in quantitative terms, the level of those supplied in recent years since the establishment of diplomatic relations between the United States and China, and that it intends to reduce gradually its sales of arms to Taiwan, leading, over a period of time, to a final resolution.Now look at what is happening: 6.4 billion dollar sales of sophisticated weaponry to a part of a country whom the U.S.side calls a partner!This is obviously a violation of the code of conduct of relations between countries and a violation of the three joint communiqués issued between China and the United States.The Chinese people and government have every reason to feel indignant about this thing.We approached the US side, made representations very seriously on many occasions, yet the United States still went ahead with the sale.Of course the Chinese government and people will have to react.It is within its sovereign right to do what is necessary.我知道你实际想问的是一个国家是否感觉强大。中国认为,所有国家无论大小、强弱、贫富,都是平等的。不管是谁,在做决定前都应换位思考,“己所不欲,勿施于人”。
I think the gist of your question is whether a country is feeling stronger or not.All countries, big or small, strong or weak, rich or poor, should be equals.You have to put yourself in the shoes of other people and before you make any decision, consider whether you like this done to yourself.我希望欧洲的朋友能够理解中方所采取的行动是完全合理的。任何有尊严的人都会做出同样的反应。中方强烈敦促美国恪守“八?一七”公报的原则,停止对台军售。实际上,我们和台湾方面在推动两岸关系和平发展方面已取得很大进展,美国也表示支持两岸关系和平发展。我们敦促美方多做有利于推动这一良好势头的事,而不是相反。
I hope our friends and people in Europe can understand that what China has done is very reasonable and what any dignified people would do.China strongly urges the United States to abide by the August 17th Communiqué and stop arms sales to Taiwan, which is actually having more progress together with us in the peaceful development of cross-Straits relations – and the United States said it supports the peaceful development of relations across the Straits.We urge the U.S.side to do things which will contribute to this good developmental trend, not the other way around.主持人:谢谢部长。我们只有时间再提一两个问题。下面请来自纽约东西方研究所的John Rose(音)先生提问。
Moderator: Thank you, Minister.I think we can only take one or two more questions.The next one on my list is John Rose [ph.] from the East-West Institute in New York.问题二:部长先生,我能不能问一个关于网络的问题?我知道这个问题颇有争议,但网络犯罪的数量正在不断增加,影响数字经济的发展,是我们共同面临的威胁。很多国家政府和企业都很关注这个问题。您能谈一谈对网络安全的看法吗?
Question: Minister, could we talk for a moment about cyber-space? I know it is seen as a confrontational issue, but an awful lot of governments and businesses are concerned about the common threats that we all face to the digital economy coming from increased cyber-crime.Could you give us your perspectives on cyber-security?
杨外长:现在我收看中国的新闻节目比西方媒体上的新闻要多。作为中国外长,我每天早上上班前要对新近发生的事情有准确全面的了解,要精打细算地用好每一分钟。我发现中国的广播和电视新闻更加准确可靠,看过这些新闻,我就可以确信已经了解世界上绝大部分的新闻。这不是说我不看西方媒体上的新闻,我还会继续看。我想告诉大家的是,中国老百姓了解到的世界各地新闻恐怕比一些西方媒体还要全面,这是事实。他们可以像我这个外交部长一样轻而易举地获取各种信息。每年有几千万中国人出境经商、旅游,同时有几千万人入境。实际上,在巴黎埃菲尔铁塔脚下你就能听到不少人说中文。所以说,中国人民享有充足的信息。他们能出国并比较在国内外的见闻。当然,我们仍要向其他国家包括发达国家学习。但中国人民为自己国家取得的成就感到自豪。中国30年来脱贫的人口几乎相当于美国全国的人口。中国还向其他国家提供了大量援助。我认为,对于发展中国家来说,最重要的事是建设基础设施。在这方面,中国将尽力提供帮助,我们希望发达国家也这么做。
Yang: These days I actually listen to or watch Chinese news programs far more than some Western media.As the Foreign Minister of China, every morning I have to have solid news before I go to my office.I have to use every minute very, very carefully and I found that I have more solid news from China's radio and TV programs.This way, when I go to office I feel quite confident that I have most of the news – if not all – in the world.This is not saying that I am not watching news on Western media.I do and I will continue to do that.What I want to tell you is that the average man and woman in China have access to extensive – I would say more extensive – coverage of news in every corner of the world than I am afraid some Western media.This is a fact.They have all the major sources of information at their fingertips like me, the Foreign Minister.And every year, tens of millions of Chinese go abroad for business, for travel, for tourism and so on and so forth;every year tens of millions of foreigners come to China.Actually at the bottom of the Eiffel Tower, you can hear lots of Chinese spoken there.So the Chinese people are well informed.They go abroad, they see the things around them and they compare what they've seen abroad with things at home.Of course, we still have a lot to learn from other countries, including developed countries.On the other hand, they feel quite proud of what China has achieved.We have, in 30 years, lifted almost the total population of the United States out of poverty.That is what China has done, and we have given lots of aid to our friends abroad.I think for the developing countries, the most important thing is to build up the basic infrastructure.China will do its best to help.We hope the developed countries will do so as well.我不明白谷歌的事情为什么会成为一个事件。我们支持信息的自由分享,也支持言论自由。另一方面,每一个到中国或其他国家发展的公司都应该知道,各国社会制度不同,要尊重所在国的历史背景和文化传统。和其他国家政府一样,中国政府也对互联网依法实行管理,以维护国家利益。我希望,外国企业在中国拓展市场的过程中继续尊重中国的公众利益和文化传统。毫无疑问,中国坚决反对黑客行为。事实上,中国是受害者。我们将与国际社会合作应对这种攻击。这就是我对“谷歌事件”的看法。我还想说,我们欢迎跨国公司到中国来,这是改革开放30年来一贯的政策。已经在中国发展的外国公司基本都不后悔,行事明智的公司更不会后悔。
I don't know how come this Google thing has cropped up.Yes, we support free exchange of information.Yes, we support freedom of speech.On the other hand, every company which comes to China or goes to another country has to recognize that there are different social systems in the world.People have to respect a country's historical background and cultural traditions.And the Chinese government, as any other government, has to do regulatory work according to law and according to what is in the best interest of China.I hope that foreign companies, while they try to do business or expand their business in China, will continue to respect public interests in China and the cultural traditions of China.Yes, we are totally against hacking attacks.China is a victim of this kind of attacks, and China will cooperate with the international community.That's what I want to say on this Google thing.I would also say we welcome international companies coming into China.This has been our consistent policy for the past 30 years or so.The people who come into China basically don't regret it and those companies who choose the wise path will never regret doing so.主持人:非常感谢。下面请Jim Holden(音)提最后一个问题。
Moderator: Thank you very much.We will take one more question.Jim Hodlen [ph.].问题三:部长先生,感谢您的讲话。您刚才部分回答了Fran?ois的问题,说中国是自觉更强大了。最近引发中国强烈反应的不仅仅是美国对台军售这一件事。有确切报道称,中国正在大力抵制对伊朗实施新的制裁。在哥本哈根大会上中国还组织了“基础四国”,奥巴马总统不得不与之打交道,这也被认为是中国越来越强势的表现。从与欧洲、美国和印度的外交官和政治家的交流中我发现,他们都注意到了一个全新的、更强大的中国。总之,您是否担心这种新的强势态度会造成冲突而不是和谐?
Question: Mr.Minister, thank you for your remarks.I did want to follow up a little bit on Francois's question, which you partially answered by saying China is feeling stronger.It is not only arms sales to Taiwan that has recently elicited strong reactions from China.There are credible reports that China is also vigorously resisting new sanctions on Iran.As you well know, there is also the Copenhagen summit where China put together a four-country bloc that President Obama had to engage with.This was also seen as assertive.As I talk to European, American and Indian diplomats and politicians, they do see a new, stronger China.Don't you fear that this new assertiveness is going to produce conflicts more than harmony?
杨外长:我想首先谈谈哥本哈根气候变化大会。在会前,中国就阐明了其立场,印度、巴西、南非也都明确提出了各自的立场。我们都强调将在可持续发展框架内为应对气候变化做出贡献。但我要强调指出,中国与许多发展中国家和发达国家交换了意见。此外,还和77国集团保持密切沟通。所以,不仅“基础四国”在应对气候变化问题上观点相似,许多其他国家也对中国的努力表示赞赏。当然,这次会议并不完全尽如人意。所以我们必须共同努力,使墨西哥会议取得更加积极的成果。但是,哥本哈根会议也取得了一些成果,会议重申了《联合国气候变化框架公约》和《京都议定书》的主渠道地位,确认要坚持“巴厘路线图”框架下的双轨谈判。在长期目标、向发展中国家提供技术和资金支持、发展中国家自主控制温室气体排放行动等方面,会议也都取得了积极的成果。我们要继续沿着这条路走下去,确保墨西哥会议取得更大成果。中国愿意继续做出自己的贡献。
Yang: Let me first talk about the Copenhagen conference.China made its position very clear beforehand.And India, Brazil and South Africa all made their positions very clear beforehand.We all stressed that we would contribute to the efforts against climate change while maintaining sustainable development in our own countries.I would like to point out that China also exchanged views with many other countries, developing and developed ones alike.And there is also the G77 plus China mechanism.So it's not just the BASIC countries who see things more or less on the same wavelength, there are many other countries who have complimented China's efforts.Of course, this conference still leaves something to be desired.That's why we need to make concerted efforts to make the next conference in Mexico a bigger success.On the other hand, the conference has achieved something, because it has reaffirmed the UNFCCC and the Kyoto Protocol as the main framework for dealing with climate change, and it has recognized we have to continue to work in a two-track way according to the Bali Roadmap.This is because, in terms of long-term goals, technical support and funding to the developing countries, voluntary actions of controlling greenhouse gas emissions from the developing countries, these are all achievements of the Copenhagen conference.I think we have to continue along this track to make sure that the Mexico conference will deliver even more.China is ready to continue to make its contribution.关于与美国的关系,我们将继续与美方交换看法。我们认为,一个稳定、健康、发展的中美关系对两国、对世界都是最有利的。
Let me say that on the question of relations with the United States, we will continue to exchange views with the U.S.side, because we do believe that a stable and healthy and developing relationship between China and the United States is in the best interest of our two countries and in the best interest of the world.关于伊朗问题。10天前我离开北京时,伊核问题并不是我此次出访的主要议题,但后来不少会见都涉及到了这个问题。我想重申,中国坚决支持维护国际核不扩散体系。同时我们认为,在遵守国际原子能机构有关规定的基础上,伊朗有和平利用核能的权利。我们认为,外交途径是解决伊核问题的最好办法,最有利于维护海湾和中东地区的和平与稳定。我们认为,伊朗并未对国际原子能机构关于德黑兰研究反应堆核燃料供应问题上的提议完全关上大门,同时六国与伊朗举行新一轮对话很重要。我们希望,在六国提议和伊朗一揽子方案的基础上,能够找到一个各方都能接受的方案。中国的观点很明确。为防止局势进一步复杂化,现在应该集中精力在磋商与对话上,只有这样才能找到令人满意的解决问题的办法。
Now, Iran.Iran was actually not part of my agenda when I started this tour about 10 days ago, but it has emerged in many of my discussions.Let me say again that China is fully supportive of maintaining the international nuclear nonproliferation regime.On the other hand, we believe that Iran, on the basis of the IAEA rules, has the right to the peaceful use of nuclear energy.And we believe this issue should best be resolved through diplomatic means so as to maintain peace and stability in the Gulf region and in the Middle East.We believe that Iran has not totally shut the door on the IAEA proposal on nuclear fuel supply to the Tehran research reactor, and we believe that it is very important to have another round of P5+1 dialogue with Iran.We hope that on the basis of the proposal put forward by the P5+1 and the package deal proposed by the Iranian side, somehow a mutually acceptable formula can emerge.China's view is very clear.That is, in order not to complicate the situation, it is better for us now to concentrate on consultation and dialogue so as to achieve a satisfactory solution.很多国家把中国看作推动和平、稳定、发展的力量。中国人口占世界人口的五分之一,我们并不要求由这五分之一的人口说了算,但至少我们应有机会就国际事务表达看法。我们同其他国家一样,也想改进国际机制,确保发展中国家和发达国家都能从合作中受益。我们既提出自己的观点,也虚心听取别人的意见,这是我们的传统。同时我们真心希望,世界其它国家也能倾听来自中国的声音。说到平等和言论自由,这是理想社会的应有要求。不仅个人之间要平等,国家之间也要平等,国际关系要民主化。一个或少数几个国家绝不能主宰世界的未来。中国追求的不是集团政治,而是各国利益的共赢。这应成为我们共同的诉求。
Let me say that many, many countries see China as a force for peace and stability and development.We have one-fifth of mankind.We are not saying that because we are one-fifth of mankind, our views should be taken good care of, but at least we deserve a chance to express our views on how things in the world should be run.What we are trying to do, like other countries, is to improve the international mechanisms to make sure that both developing and developed countries will benefit from our cooperation in the future.We are offering our views and we have the modesty to listen to others.It has always been the tradition of China.But I think we also deserve a hearing of one kind or another.I say this in a very humble way.When we talk about equality and freedom of speech, we are talking about such attributes to decent society not only on an individual basis, but also on the basis of countries and democratization of international relations.One country or a few countries definitely cannot decide the future of the world.China is not talking about blocs.China is talking about common interests.That should be the language we speak in the future.主持人:谢谢,部长先生。
Moderator: Thank you, Mr.Minister.

中国和非洲同为人类文明发祥地,友好交往源远流长,最早可追溯到公元前2世纪。历史上传为佳话的是,中国明代航海家郑和七下西洋,曾4次到过现在的索马里、肯尼亚等东非沿岸,至今留下许多动人的传说。20世纪中叶,随着新中国的诞生和广大非洲国家相继获得独立,中国与非洲国家陆续建立了外交关系,中非友好续谱新篇。半个多世纪以来,中非传统友谊和务实合作经受住了时间和国际风云变幻的考验,历久弥坚。
Both China and Africa are cradles of human civilizations.Our friendship and exchanges can be traced back to the 2nd Century AD.It is worth noting that in the Ming Dynasty, Chinese navigator Zheng He led a fleet to the Western Seas on seven voyages, and, for four times, he reached the east coast of Africa, which are now Somalia and Kenya.Many of his stories are still told today.In the mid 20th Century, after the People's Republic of China was founded and most African countries gained independence, China and African countries established diplomatic relations, opening a new chapter in the annals of our friendship.In the past fifty years and more, China-Africa traditional friendship and practical cooperation have withstood the test of time and changes in the international arena and emerged even stronger.进入21世纪,为了共谋发展,同迎挑战,中国和非洲友好国家共创了中非合作论坛,从2000年到今天,已走过了9个春秋。在中非双方的高度重视和精心培育下,论坛机制日臻完善,作用日益突出,影响不断扩大。
At the dawn of the 21st Century, China and friendly African countries jointly launched FOCAC in 2000 to seek development and meet challenges together.Over the past nine years, China and Africa have given top priority to and put much time and energy into FOCAC.With full-fledged mechanisms, FOCAC is playing a bigger role with increasingly greater influence.论坛是引领中非友好的旗帜。2000年首届部长级会议中非建立“长期稳定、平等互利的新型伙伴关系”,2003年第二届部长级会议中非双方提出进一步巩固和发展“长期稳定、平等互利、全面合作的新型伙伴关系”,2006年北京峰会上胡锦涛主席代表中国政府宣布深受非洲国家欢迎的8项举措,中非领导人一致同意建立和发展中非新型战略伙伴关系,论坛引领中非友好合作关系又好又快地向前推进。
Under the flag of FOCAC, China-Africa friendship has flourished.At the First Ministerial Conference in 2000, we committed ourselves to a new China-Africa partnership featuring long-term stability, equality and mutual benefit.At the Second Ministerial Conference in 2003, we set out to boost comprehensive cooperation under this new partnership.At the Beijing Summit in 2006, President Hu Jintao announced, on behalf of the Chinese government, eight measures that have been well received by African countries.Chinese and African leaders agreed at the summit to build a new type of China-Africa strategic partnership.FOCAC has acted as a spearhead in the sound and fast growth of China-Africa friendly relations and cooperation.论坛是中非进行集体对话的重要平台。双方在论坛框架下建立了部长级会议、外长级政治对话、高官级会议和论坛中方后续行动委员会与非洲驻华使团磋商等机制。部长会每三年举行一届,轮流在中国和非洲国家召开。中非双方利用论坛这一平台,就中非关系和共同关心的国际和地区问题深入交换意见,协调双方立场,加强相互支持。
FOCAC is an important platform for China-Africa collective dialogue.Under it, there are mechanisms including ministerial conference, political dialogue at the foreign ministers' level, senior officials' meeting and consultations between the Secretariat of the Chinese Follow-up Committee of FOCAC and the African diplomatic corps in China.The ministerial conference takes place every three years in China and Africa alternately.FOCAC has brought China and Africa together for in-depth exchange of views on our relations and international and regional issues of common interest, and for better coordination and stronger mutual support.论坛是中非开展务实合作的有效机制。每届部长会都制定既具指导性又切实可操作的纲领性合作文件,对会后三年双方各领域合作进行全面规划。论坛已成为中非友好合作的一大国际品牌,受到国际社会的广泛关注,对发展中国家间加强合作具有示范作用,也带动了国际社会更加重视非洲并加大对非投入。
FOCAC is an effective mechanism for China-Africa practical cooperation.Every ministerial conference has adopted feasible plans to guide cooperation across the board in the next three years.FOCAC has become an international brand of China-Africa friendship and cooperation, drawing worldwide interest.It showcases the strengthened cooperation among developing countries and encourages the international community to pay more attention to and increase input in Africa.再过一周,论坛第四届部长级会议将在埃及沙姆沙伊赫召开。中国国务院总理温家宝将同埃及总统穆巴拉克和部分非洲国家领导人一起出席开幕式,并发表重要讲话。中国政府还将宣布对非合作新举措。相信这次会议将在新形势下进一步推动中非关系的发展,成为中非友好史上新的里程碑。
In a week's time, the Fourth FOCAC Ministerial Conference will take place in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt.Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao, together with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and some other African leaders, will attend and speak at the opening ceremony.He will announce the Chinese government's new measures for cooperation with Africa.I believe this conference will further promote the growth of China-Africa relations in the new era and become another milestone in the history of China-Africa friendship.朋友们,Dear Friends,中国人民同非洲人民是心心相印的朋友、兄弟。不管是过去、现在,还是将来,中国人民都
将永远珍视同非洲人民的传统友谊,将始终视非洲人民为可以信赖和依靠的全天候朋友。回顾过去,我们为中非友谊而自豪,面向未来,我们需要更多的人,特别是中非年轻一代,共同巩固和延伸中非友谊的桥梁。我们有理由相信,在中非人民的共同努力下,中非合作一定会登上一个更高台阶!中非友谊一定会结出更美丽的花朵。
The Chinese people are bosom friends and brothers of the African people.We cherish our traditional friendship with the African people, and take African people as our reliable and trustworthy all-weather friends.Looking back, we are proud of our friendship.Looking ahead, we need more people, young Chinese and Africans in particular, to deepen and strengthen China-Africa friendship.We have every reason to be confident that our two peoples will work together to bring our cooperation to a higher plane and make our friendship even more fruitful!

Building the New Type of China-Africa Strategic Partnership Speech at the Opening Ceremony of the 4th Ministerial Conference of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation by Wen Jiabao, Premier of the State Council of the People's Republic
of China Sharm el-Sheikh, 8 November 2009 尊敬的穆罕默德•胡斯尼•穆巴拉克总统阁下,尊敬的各位国家元首和政府首脑阁下,尊敬的非洲联盟委员会主席让•平阁下,各位代表团团长、部长和大使阁下,女士们、先生们: Your Excellency President Mohammed Hosni Mubarak, Your Excellencies Heads of State and Government, Your Excellency Mr.Jean Ping, Chairperson of the AU Commission, Your Excellencies Heads of Delegation, Ministers and Ambassadors, Ladies and Gentlemen,来到美丽的海滨城市沙姆沙伊赫,与出席中非合作论坛第四届部长级会议的各位朋友畅叙友情、共商合作,我感到非常高兴。作为本次会议共同主席国的总理,我谨代表中国政府,对各位与会嘉宾表示热烈欢迎,对埃及政府为本次会议所做的精心准备和周到安排表示衷心感谢!
I am delighted to join you in the beautiful coastal city of Sharm El Sheikh on the occasion of the 4th Ministerial Conference of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation(FOCAC).This conference gives us the opportunity to renew friendship and explore ways to further cooperation.As the Premier of the co-chair country of the conference, I would like to extend, on behalf of the Chinese government, a warm welcome to all the participants and express sincere thanks to the government of Egypt for the thoughtful preparations and arrangements it has made for the conference.中非合作论坛创立九年来,一直发挥着引领和推动中非关系发展的重要作用,日益成为中非加深友谊的桥梁、加强合作的平台。特别是论坛北京峰会召开三年来,中非致力于共建政治上平等互信、经济上合作共赢、文化上交流互鉴的新型战略伙伴关系,开创了中非合作的新局面。
Since its founding nine years ago, FOCAC has played a major role in guiding and promoting the development of China-Africa relations and become a bridge of friendship and a platform of cooperation between China and Africa.In the three years since the Beijing Summit in particular, the two sides have worked together to build the new type of strategic partnership featuring political equality and mutual trust, economic win-win cooperation and cultural exchanges.Together, we have opened a new chapter in China-Africa cooperation.——政治互信不断增强。双方高层往来更加频繁、外交磋商与战略对话日趋密切,非洲国家在涉及中国核心利益问题上更加坚定地支持中方,中非在重大国际和地区事务中相互协调配合,维护和扩大了广大发展中国家的共同利益。
--We have enhanced political mutual trust.The two sides have had more frequent high-level exchanges and stepped up diplomatic consultations and strategic dialogue.African countries have given even stronger support to China on issues concerning China's core interests.China and Africa have cooperated and coordinated with each other on major international and regional issues and jointly safeguarded and expanded the common interests of developing countries.——经贸合作日益深化。2008年中非贸易突破千亿美元,同中国有贸易往来的非洲国家增加到53个;中国在非洲开工建设6个经贸合作区,中国企业到非洲国家落户增加到近1600家,直接投资存量达到78亿美元;工程承包和劳务合作规模不断扩大,金融合作方兴未艾。
--We have strengthened economic cooperation and trade.Last year, China-Africa trade exceeded 100 billion U.S.dollars and the number of African countries trading with China grew to 53.China has begun construction of the six economic and trade cooperation zones in Africa.Nearly 1,600 Chinese enterprises have started business in African countries with a direct investment stock of 7.8 billion U.S.dollars.Project contracting and labor services cooperation between the two sides have been expanding, and financial cooperation is gaining momentum.——中国扩大对非援助取得实效。中国在遭受国际金融危机冲击、自身面临不少困难的情况下,信守诺言,全面落实北京峰会的承诺,对非援助规模翻了一番,免除33国168笔债务已近尾声,总计50亿美元的优惠性质贷款近期将全部到位,首期10亿美元的中非发展基金如期启动。这些不仅促进了非洲自我发展能力建设,也为非洲国家应对国际金融危机的冲击发挥了积极作用。--The increase in China's assistance to Africa has produced practical results.Despite the impact of the international financial crisis and the many difficulties we face at home, we have honored the commitments we made at the Beijing Summit in an all-round way.Our assistance to Africa has been doubled.The plan to cancel 168 debts owed by 33 African countries is near completion.The 5 billion U.S.dollars of concessional loans will be fully in place soon.The China-Africa Development Fund, whose first tranche reached 1 billion U.S.dollars, has become operational as scheduled.These measures have not only added to Africa's capacity for self-development but also helped African countries in their effort to counter the financial crisis.——人文交流蓬勃开展。文教、卫生、人力资源培训等领域的交流与合作发展迅猛,中国为非洲国家培训各类人员年底以前将达到15000人,青年、妇女、友好省市等领域的交往日趋频繁,进一步加深了相互理解和传统友谊。
--We have witnessed vigorous people-to-people exchanges.Exchanges and cooperation between China and Africa in culture, education, health and human resources training have grown rapidly.By the end of this year, China will train a total of 15,000 people of different professions for African countries.Interactions among the youth, women and sister provinces and cities have been more frequent.All these developments have led to deeper mutual understanding and stronger traditional friendship between China and Africa.女士们、先生们、朋友们,Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Friends,近年来,迅速提升的中非关系、日益密切的中非合作,吸引了全世界的目光。在这里我想强调,中国不是近年来突然出现在非洲的,非洲也不是近年来才支持中国的。早在上世纪五、六十年代,中非就在反帝、反殖、反霸的历史浪潮中并肩战斗,在振兴民族经济的艰辛历程中携手同行。坦赞铁路、援非医疗队、青年志愿者,是中国无私帮助非洲的生动例证;把中国“抬进”联合国、北京奥运圣火在非洲顺利传递、向四川汶川地震灾区热心捐款,是非洲人民对中国人民情谊的真实写照。中国政府和人民始终尊重非洲国家自主选择社会制度的权利,支持非洲人民探索适合本国国情的发展道路,坚信非洲完全有能力以非洲方式处理好自己的问题。中非经贸合作是建立在互利共赢、开放透明基础之上的,中国对非洲的支持和援助,过去没有、将来也永远不会附加任何政治条件。中国乐见其他国家和国际组织积极参与非洲的开发与建设,共同推动非洲的和平、发展与进步。
The rapidly growing relations and cooperation between China and Africa have attracted the world's attention in recent years.I would like to point out that it was not just a few years ago that China suddenly started its presence in Africa or Africa started its support for China.As early as in the 1950s and '60s, China and Africa fought shoulder to shoulder in the historic struggle against imperialism, colonialism and hegemony and worked side by side in the hard endeavor to revive our respective national economies.The Tanzania-Zambia Railway, the Chinese medical teams and the young Chinese volunteers in Africa are vivid examples of China's selfless assistance to this continent, while Africa's tremendous effort in helping restore China's seat in the United Nations, the successful Beijing Olympic torch relay in Africa and Africa's generous donations to the victims of the Wenchuan earthquake in China give full expression to the friendship of the African people toward the Chinese people.The Chinese government and people respect the right of African countries to independently choose their social systems and support the African people in exploring development paths that suit their national conditions.We firmly believe that Africa is fully capable of solving its own problems in an African way.The economic cooperation and trade between China and Africa are based on mutual benefit, win-win progress, openness and transparency.China has never attached any political strings to its support and assistance to Africa, and nor will it do so in the future.China welcomes the active involvement of other countries and international organizations in Africa's development so that we can jointly promote peace, development and progress in Africa.中非关系能够经受住国际风云变幻的考验,始终保持蓬勃发展的势头,患难与共、相互支持是基础;相互尊重、平等相待是核心;互利合作、共同发展是关键。当今世界正在经历空前的大变革、大调整,中非同属发展中国家,既面临着加快发展的难得的历史机遇,也面临着纷繁复杂的全球性挑战。双方进一步加强互利合作,有利于充分发挥各自优势,实现共同发展;有利于带动国际社会更加关注非洲,帮助非洲加快实现千年发展目标;有利于促进南南合作,提升发展中国家在国际政治、经济格局中的整体地位;有利于推动国际关系民主化和国际秩序公正化,建设持久和平、共同繁荣的和谐世界。
China-Africa relations have withstood the test of international vicissitudes and maintained the momentum of robust growth.Our relationship is based on mutual support, particularly during times of adversity.It is guided by the core principle of mutual respect and equality.It is driven by our joint endeavor to pursue mutually-beneficial cooperation and common development.The world today is undergoing unprecedented changes and adjustments.We are all developing countries and face both rare historic opportunities for faster development and complex global challenges.We should enhance mutually beneficial cooperation.Cooperation between us will enable us to bring out our respective strengths and achieve common development.Cooperation between us will encourage the international community to pay greater attention to Africa and help it attain the Millennium Development Goals(MDGs)at an early date.Cooperation between us will catalyze South-South cooperation and enhance the collective standing of developing countries in the international political and economic architecture.Cooperation between us will promote democracy in international relations and justice in the international order and contribute to the effort of building a harmonious world of enduring peace and common prosperity.女士们、先生们、朋友们,Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Friends,当前,与其他地区一样,非洲也面临着金融危机、气候变化等全球性问题的挑战。金融市场波动,经济大幅下滑,外资流入锐减,一些国家和地区出现动荡,实现联合国千年发展目标任务更加艰巨;受气候变化的影响,水旱灾害频繁、沙漠化加剧、物种减少、粮食减产、生态环境恶化,可持续发展面临严重威胁。
Like other parts of the world, Africa is faced with various global challenges, including the financial crisis and climate change.Your task of meeting the MDGs has been made more difficultby the financial market volatility, sharp economic slowdown, drastic decline in foreign capital and the turmoil in some countries and regions in Africa.And your effort to achieve sustainable development has been seriously threatened by the frequent floods and droughts, the spread of desertification, extinction of some species, drop in food production and environmental degradation caused by climate change.非洲人口占世界的1/7,是发展中国家最集中的大陆,非洲的发展,是实现世界经济发展不可或缺的组成部分。作为非洲真诚可靠的朋友,中国对非洲面临的困难和挑战感同身受。中国呼吁国际社会要增强紧迫感,更加切实有效地支持非洲发展。一是坚持落实千年发展目标的决心不动摇,措施不减弱,切实履行对非援助承诺,积极为非洲创造有利的国际经济、贸易、金融等外部条件。二是深刻认识非洲国家提高适应气候变化能力的迫切需要,理解和支持非洲国家的合理关切和诉求,把帮助非洲应对气候变化与提高可持续发展能力紧密结合起来,通过综合治理,促进非洲的全面协调发展。三是对非洲国家在应对粮食安全、能源安全、流行性疾病等其他全球性问题面临的特殊困难,给予更多理解、支持和帮助。
Africa is home to one seventh of the world's population and has more developing countries than any other continent.Africa' s development is indispensable to development of the world economy.As a true and tested friend, China fully understands the difficulties and challenges facing Africa.We call upon the international community to have a greater sense of urgency and take more concrete steps to support Africa's development.First, the international community should not waver in its resolve or weaken its effort to help Africa meet the MDGs.It should take credible steps to honor the commitment of assistance to Africa and actively foster an enabling external environment of international economy, trade and finance.Second, the international community should have a keen appreciation of African countries' pressing need for stronger capacity in adapting to climate change, understand and support their legitimate concerns and demands, and help them better meet the climate challenge in the larger context of enhancing Africa' s ability for achieving sustainable development.Such a holistic approach will help Africa realize all-round and balanced development.Third, the international community should show more understanding of the special difficulties facing Africa in addressing such global issues as food security, energy security and epidemic diseases, and render them greater support and assistance.女士们、先生们、朋友们,Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Friends,在新形势下,中国愿意和非洲国家不断深化各领域务实合作,全面推进中非新型战略伙伴关系。为此,我愿提出以下建议:
Under the new circumstances, China is ready to deepen practical cooperation with African countries in diverse areas and push forward in an all-round way the new type of China-Africa strategic partnership.I wish to make, in this connection, the following proposals: 第一,加强战略协调,维护共同利益。保持高层交往势头,密切政治对话和磋商,就双方共同关心的重大全球性问题加强协调配合,提升发展中国家在国际体系中的发言权和代表性,共同推动国际政治经济秩序朝着更加公正合理的方向发展。中国将一如既往地在国际场合为非洲仗义执言,维护非洲国家的利益,同时与非洲国家加强应对全球性挑战策略和经验方面的交流,帮助非洲国家提高应对能力和自我发展能力。
First, strengthen strategic coordination to uphold common interests.The two sides should maintain high-level exchanges, engage in closer political dialogue and consultations and step up coordination and cooperation on major global issues of mutual interest, so as to increase the voice and representation of developing countries in the international system and jointly build a more just and reasonable international political and economic order.China will, as always, speak up for Africa and safeguard the interests of African countries on international occasions.We will make greater effort to share strategies and experience with African countries in meeting global challenges and help them enhance capacities and achieve self-development.第二,落实千年发展目标,改善非洲民生。发展经济、消除贫困、改善民生,是非洲国家的首要任务。中国将继续在力所能及范围内增加对非援助、减免非洲国家债务,优化对非援助结构,使援助项目进一步向农业、教育、医疗卫生、减贫、清洁饮用水等攸关民生的领域倾斜,帮助非洲尽早实现联合国千年发展目标。
Second, meet the MDGs and improve the livelihood of the African people.Economic development, poverty eradication and improvement of people's lives are top priorities for African countries.China will continue to increase assistance to Africa and reduce or cancel debts owed by African countries within the realm of its capabilities.We will restructure our assistance programs to better meet the needs on the ground.We will put more emphasis on agriculture, education, health, poverty reduction and clean drinking water and other areas that are vital to people's well-being when providing assistance, and help Africa attain the MDGs at an early date.第三,提升经贸合作,实现互利共赢。中非经济互补性很强,互利合作前景广阔。应大力发展中非贸易,尽快扭转今年双边贸易下滑态势,积极扩大非洲商品对华出口。中国鼓励更多企业赴非洲投资,引导中国企业更多承担社会责任,同当地人民和睦相处。要把对非经贸合作同技术转让结合起来,大力帮助非洲培训技术人员和管理人才。
Third, enhance economic cooperation and trade to realize mutual benefit and win-win progress.The strong economic complementarity between China and Africa offers us broad prospects for mutually beneficial cooperation.We should work hard to increase trade, speedily reverse the trade downturn since the beginning of this year and increase export of African goods to China.China will encourage more enterprises to invest in Africa and ask them to shoulder more social responsibilities and live in amity with the local people.We will combine economic cooperation and trade with technology transfer and take active steps to train technical and managerial personnel for African countries.第四,促进人文交流,巩固中非友好。中非都有着灿烂多姿的文化。双方应进一步加强文化交流和借鉴,鼓励双方举办各种文化节、艺术展和体育赛事,支持双方民间组织、新闻媒体、学术机构密切联系。中国将继续支持非洲发展教育、卫生、科技等社会事业,欢迎非洲各国参与上海世博会,充分展示非洲各领域的发展成果。
Fourth, promote people-to-people exchanges to solidify China-Africa friendship.Both China and Africa have a rich and splendid culture.The two sides should step up cultural exchanges and mutual learning, encourage the organization of culture festivals, art exhibitions and sports events, and support closer interactions among non-governmental organizations, news media and academic institutions.China will continue to support Africa in developing education, health, science and technology and other social programs.We welcome African countries to participate in the Shanghai World Expo to showcase Africa's development achievements in various fields.第五,拓宽合作领域,加强机制建设。中方愿加大对非洲和平安全事务的参与,增加对非洲一体化建设的支持,扩大同非洲区域性组织的合作。愿与非方共同努力,推进中非合作论坛机制建设,促进双方职能部门在论坛框架下开展合作,强化和扩展论坛对中非关系的促进和引领作用。
Fifth, expand areas of cooperation and advance FOCAC institutional building.China is willing to increase involvement in the settlement of issues concerning peace and security in Africa, provide more support to African integration and expand cooperation with sub-regional organizations in Africa.We will work with you to promote FOCAC institutional building, strengthen cooperation between the functional departments of the two sides within the FOCAC framework, and enhance and expand FOCAC's role in promoting and guiding China-Africa relations.女士们、先生们、朋友们,Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Friends,中国人民对非洲人民的感情是真诚的,中国对非洲发展的支持是实实在在的。今后不管世界风云如何变化,我们同非洲人民的友谊不会变,与非洲深化互利合作、实现共同发展的决心不会变,支持非洲经济社会发展的政策不会变。在今后3年,中国政府将采取八项新举措推进中非合作:

Eighth, we will expand people-to-people and cultural exchanges.We propose to launch a China-Africa joint research and exchange program, which will enable scholars and think tanks to have more exchanges and cooperation, share development experience, and provide intellectual support for formulating better cooperation policies by the two sides.女士们、先生们、朋友们,Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Friends,53年前,埃及成为非洲第一个与新中国建交的国家。中埃建交开启了中非关系的新纪元。今天,在埃及召开的中非合作论坛第四届部长级会议,将成为中非关系进一步发展的新起点。非洲有句谚语:独行可以走得快,结伴才能走得远。中国也有句谚语:路遥知马力,日久见人心。我相信,只要中非双方同心协力、开拓进取、平等互利,我们就完全能够抓住机遇、战胜挑战,中非新型战略伙伴关系就一定会迈上新的台阶,中非友谊与合作就一定会不断地结出更加丰硕的成果。
Egypt was the first African country to enter into diplomatic relations with the People' s Republic of China.The establishment of diplomatic ties between China and Egypt 53 years ago opened a new era in China-Africa relations.Today, Egypt is playing host to the 4th FOCAC Ministerial Conference, which will mark a new starting point in China-Africa relations.There is an African proverb which says, “If you want to go quickly, go alone.If you want to go far, go together.” There is also a Chinese saying that goes, “As distance can test a horse's strength, so time can reveal a person's heart.” I am convinced that as long as China and Africago hand in hand with an enterprising spirit and cooperate on the basis of equality and mutual benefit, we will seize opportunities and overcome challenges to take the new type of China-Africa strategic partnership to a new level, and make China-Africa friendship and cooperation even more fruitful.最后,预祝本届论坛部长级会议圆满成功!
In conclusion, I wish the 4th FOCAC Ministerial Conference a crowning success!
