戴秉国在第四轮中美战略与经济对话开幕式上的致辞

(2012年5月3日，北京)

尊敬的克林顿国务卿、盖特纳财长，尊敬的王岐山副总理，女士们、先生们、朋友们：

今天，我们生活在地球两端的两个大国的代表再次相聚一起，继续就事关中美关系的战略性、长期性、全局性问题深入交换意见。

人们可以看到，中美战略与经济对话机制发展的3年，正是世界快速变化和中美关系快速发展的3年。胡锦涛主席与奥巴马总统举行了11次成功会晤。双方发表了两份《中美联合声明》。2011年1月，中美两国元首达成了共建相互尊重、互利共赢的合作伙伴关系的重要共识，为新时期中美关系指明了方向。今年2月，习近平副主席成功访美，进一步推动了中美合作伙伴关系的发展。实践证明，3年多前中美两国元首作出举行中美战略与经济对话的决策是十分正确的。

朋友们，纵观世界历史，有太多大国争霸祸及自身、殃及世界的惨痛教训，两次世界大战更是给全人类带来巨大的灾难。我时常在想，我们身处21世纪，应该比我们的前人们更加聪明，应该能够吸取历史的深刻和惨痛教训，顺应世界历史大势，矢志不渝地努力探寻大国如何相处这个“老问题”的“新答案”，打破大国必然冲突对抗的所谓“历史宿命”，为我们这个“地球村”带来持久和平与繁荣。

自170多年前的鸦片战争以来，国家富强、民族复兴、人民富足就一直是中国人民的崇高梦想，更是新中国成立60多年来中国人民坚持不懈的奋斗目标。我们走过弯路，经历过挫折，也遭到过外来的各种封锁、压制和威胁，但是我们从来没有动摇。今天，我们比任何时候都更加接近中华民族复兴的目标，比任何时候都更加需要坚定不移地走自己所选择的发展道路。与此同时，我们也要与世界上所有国家友好相处，共同发展。我们真诚致力于与世界上最大的发达国家美国建立和发展相互尊重、和谐相处、合作共赢的新型大国关系。

诚然，这不是一件轻而易举的事情，但精诚所至，金石为开。不管前进道路上有多少艰难险阻，只要我们双方都抱有赤诚，顺应大势，牢牢把握两国元首确定的正确方向，以“愚公移山”的劲头，每天挖山不止，不断加强对话，增进互信，扩大合作，妥善处理分歧，就能实现我们的目标。我想，没有任何力量能够将中美两个大国的关系推向冲突对抗的深渊，如果有人硬是要逆历史潮流和人民意愿而动，必将受到历史的审判。

在此我想特别指出的是，国与国之间相处的根本之道在于恪守国际关系基本准则，即相互尊重主权，尊重彼此核心利益，尊重各自对社会制度和发展道路的选择。在大国之间尤其要这样。13亿中国人有权选择走一条不同于美国和西方社会的、符合自己国情的、造福于中国人民也有利于世界的发展道路，任何人都不要指望中国人民离开自己的道路。

40年前尼克松总统访华时，我还是一名青年外交官。近10年来，我有幸直接参与了中美关系的一些实际工作，同美国朋友们进行了多年的战略对话，花了很多工夫探讨构建中美两个大国的新型关系问题。应该说，我们实际上达成了一个极具价值的共识，就是中美两国绝不能重走历史上大国冲突对抗的老路。是的，绝不能走那条路，那是一条绝路、死路。只能走一条新路，那是一条光明大道。

衷心希望本轮对话能对构筑中美新型关系做出新的努力和贡献。

谢谢大家！

Speech at the Opening Ceremony of the Fourth China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogue

by President Hu Jintao

May 3, 2012

克林顿国务卿，盖特纳财长，各位来宾，女士们，先生们，朋友们：

Secretary Clinton，Secretary Timothy Geithner，Distinguished guests，Ladies and gentlemen，Dear friends，时隔两年，中美战略与经济对话再次在北京举行，中美双方将共同探讨新形势下如何推动两国关系向前发展。首先，我谨对第四轮中美战略与经济对话开幕，表示祝贺！对远道而来的美国朋友们，表示欢迎！

Today after two years, a new round of China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogues(S&ED)has opened here in Beijing.During the dialogue, our two sides will discuss ways to advance China-US relations under the new circumstances.I wish to extend congratulations on the opening of the fourth round of the S&ED and welcome to our American friends coming from afar.2009年，我同奥巴马总统在伦敦会晤时共同商定，建立中美战略与经济对话机制。3年多来，中美战略与经济对话作为两国级别最高、参与部门最多、讨论议题最广的机制，促进了两国高层战略沟通，加深了对彼此战略意图和政策的了解，扩大了对中美关系发展方向的共识；有力推进了互利合作，增进了两国人民相互了解和友谊；丰富了两国各领域各层次交流沟通。

President Obama and I agreed to establish the S&ED when we met in London in 2009.This is the highest-level mechanism between our two countries that involves the most extensive participation by our government departments and has a most wide-ranging agenda.Over the past three years and more, the S&ED has facilitated high-level strategic consultation between our two countries.We have increased understanding of each other's strategic intentions and policies and expanded consensus on the future course of China-US relations.The S&ED has given a strong boost to our mutually beneficial cooperation and contributed to mutual understanding and friendship between our two peoples.It has enriched exchanges and consultations between the two countries in various fields and at various levels.在本轮对话中，希望双方再接再厉，共同努力，既立足当前，又着眼长远，推动中美战略与经济对话成为两国加强战略沟通、增进战略互信、促进战略合作的长效机制，为建设中美合作伙伴关系不断进行探索和实践。

I hope that the two sides will continue to make concerted efforts during this round of S&ED.We need to both focus on the present and look ahead to the future.We should make the S&ED a long-term mechanism for us to intensify strategic consultation, enhance strategic mutual trust and promote strategic cooperation, a mechanism that helps us explore ways to build China-US cooperative partnership.女士们、先生们！

Ladies and gentlemen，40年前，中美两国老一辈领导人用“跨越太平洋的握手”开启了中美关系的大门，开始探索不同社会制度、历史文化、发展阶段大国的相处之道。40年来，中美关系发展的广度和深度，远远超过了当年人们的想象。

Forty years ago, the Chinese and American leaders of the older generation opened the door of China-US relations with a handshake across the Pacific Ocean, and this started the process of exploring how our two major countries, different in social system, history, culture and development stage, should treat each other.Today 40 years on, China-US relations have grown well beyond what people could have imagined at that time.一年前，我对美国进行了国事访问，同奥巴马总统就共同建设相互尊重、互利共赢的合作伙伴关系达成重要共识。中美分别是当今世界最大的发展中国家和最大的发达国家，中美关系持续健康稳定向前发展，不仅能给两国人民带来实实在在的利益，而且将为促进世界和平、稳定、繁荣作出宝贵贡献。

A year ago, I paid a state visit to the United States and reached an important agreement with President Obama on working together to build a China-US cooperative partnership based on mutual respect and mutual benefit.China and the United States are respectively the largest developing country and the largest developed country.The sustained, sound and steady growth of our relations will not only deliver real benefits to our two peoples but also make valuable contributions to world peace, stability and prosperity.女士们、先生们！

Ladies and gentlemen，当今世界，经济全球化深入发展，科技进步日新月异，机遇和挑战并存。各国人民都期待２１世纪成为人类历史上第一个共享和平安宁、共同发展繁荣的世纪。人们认为，中美合作将给两国和世界带来巨大机遇，中美对抗将给两国和世界带来巨大损害。无论国际风云如何变幻，无论中美两国国内情况如何发展，双方都应该坚定推进合作伙伴关系建设，努力发展让两国人民放心、让各国人民安心的新型大国关系。

The world today is in deepening economic globalization and rapid scientific and technological advances.We face both opportunities and challenges.People of all countries hope that the 21st century will be the first century in human history in which we can all enjoy peace, stability, development and prosperity.People believe that cooperation between China and the United States will bring enormous opportunities to the two countries and the whole world, while confrontation between the two will bring grave harm to all.Whatever changes may take place in the world and no matter how the domestic situations in our two countries may evolve, China and the United States should be firmly committed to advancing the cooperative partnership and build a new type of relations between major countries that is reassuring to both of our two peoples and to peoples across the world.发展中美新型大国关系，需要创新思维。40年前，中美发表《上海公报》是一个创举，《上海公报》在肯定双方共同点的同时，如实列出存在的分歧，确立了中美关系的基本指导原则。当前，人类已进入21世纪第二个十年。我们的思想、政策、行动应该与时俱进，以创新的思维、切实的行动，打破历史上大国对抗冲突的传统逻辑，探索经济全球化时代发展大国关系的新路径。

To build such of a new type of relations between China and United States as two major countries, we need to think creatively.Forty years ago, China and Untied States made a creative move by issuing the Shanghai Communiqué.The Communiqué, which both affirmed the shared views of the two countries and listed their differences truthfully, established the basic principles on China-US relations.We are now in the second decade of the 21st century and we need to advance with the times in our thinking, policies and actions.We should, through creative thinking and concrete steps, prove that the traditional belief that big powers are bound to enter into confrontation and conflicts is wrong, and seek new ways of developing relations between major countries in the era of economic globalization.发展中美新型大国关系，需要相互信任。我们这个星球有足够大的空间，应能容得下中美两国和其他国家共同发展。改革开放30多年来，中国坚持和平发展，开创了一条依靠中国人民勤劳智慧、通过中国人民同各国人民合作共赢实现发展的正确道路。走和平发展道路，是我们始终不变的战略选择，是中国对全世界的郑重承诺。

To build a new type of relations between China and the United States, we need to trust each other.The world we live in is big enough for China, the United States and all other countries to achieve common development.Over the past 30 years, since its reform and opening-up course started, China has, through the hard work and wisdom of the Chinese people and win-win cooperation with the people around the world, pursued peaceful development.This is the right path to development that we have embarked on.To follow the path of peaceful development is our strategic choice which we will never change, and it is a solemn commitment that China has made to the world.发展中美新型大国关系，需要平等互谅。中美两国国情不同，不可能在所有问题上都意见一致。双方必须学会相互尊重，善于抓住“同”，把共同利益的蛋糕做大；正确对待“异”，尊重和照顾彼此利益关切。对存在的分歧，应通过对话交流，增进理解，妥善处理，以免影响中美关系大局。

To build a new type of relations between China and the United States, we need to act in spirit of equality and mutual understanding.Given different national conditions, it is impossible for China and the United States to see eye to eye on every issue.The two sides must know how to respect each other, be good at expanding common ground and make the pile of our convergent interests bigger.We should approach our differences in a correct way and respect and accommodate each other's interests and concerns.We should properly manage differences through dialogues and exchanges and by improving mutual understanding, so that these differences will not undermine the larger interests of China-US relations.发展中美新型大国关系，需要积极行动。中国有句古话，为者常成，行者常至。我们要采取扎实有效的行动，把双方达成的各项共识落到实处，推动广泛领域务实合作，加强在国际和地区问题上的协调，促进亚太地区乃至世界和平稳定，让两国人民和各国人民切实享受中美合作带来的好处。

To build a new type of relations between China and the United States, we need to work actively.As an old Chinese saying goes, only by working diligently can one achieve his goal and only by walking tirelessly can one reach his destination.We need to take solid and effective steps to implement what we have agreed upon.We should enhance practical cooperation in a wide range of areas, step up coordination on regional and international issues, promote peace and stability in the Asia-Pacific and beyond and bring the benefits of China-US cooperation to the people of our two countries and the whole world.发展中美新型大国关系，需要厚植友谊。国之交在于民相亲。我们要积极推进两国社会各界交流交往，让更多人成为中美友好合作的参与者、支持者。我高兴地得知，第三轮中美人文交流高层磋商将与第四轮中美战略与经济对话同时举行，期待第三轮磋商进一步促进中美两国人民相互了解和友谊。

To build a new type of relations between China and the United States, we need to nourish our friendship.Friendship between people holds the key to growing good relations between states.We should actively promote exchanges between China and America from all walks of life and encourage greater public participation in the course of promoting China-US friendship and cooperation.I am glad to know that the third meeting of China-US high-level consultation on people to people exchange will be held at the same time of the fourth round of the S&ED.I hope that this meeting will further enhance the mutual understanding and friendship between the two peoples.女士们、先生们！

Ladies and gentlemen，我们所在的这个大厅叫芳菲苑。中国唐代诗人韩愈有两句诗：“草木知春不久归，百般红紫斗芳菲。”意思是时不我待，必须奋发进取。中美关系正面临进一步发展的机遇，同时也面临新的挑战。让我们抓住机遇，排除干扰，共同努力，走出一条相互尊重、合作共赢的新型大国关系之路。

The room in which we are having this meeting is called Fangfeiyuan, or the Hall of Flowers.The name of the hall reminds me of a line in a poem by Chinese Tang Dynasty poet Han Yu describing late spring--the plants know spring will soon wave them goodbye, hundreds of red and violet flowers in beauty vie.It shows that time waits for no man and one must work hard and keep advancing.China and the United States now face new opportunities to further grow our relations.We're also confronted with new challenges.Let us seize opportunities and remove interference and work together to build a new type of relations between major countries featuring mutual respect and win-win cooperation.预祝第四轮中美战略与经济对话取得圆满成功。

In conclusion, I wish the fourth round of the China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogues every success!

Remarks by State Councilor Dai Bingguo at the Opening Session of the Third Round of the China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogue Washington DC, 9 May 2011

尊敬的克林顿国务卿和盖特纳财长，尊敬的王岐山副总理，女士们、先生们、朋友们：

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton，Secretary of the Treasury Timothy Geithner, Vice Premier Wang Qishan, Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Friends，很高兴来华盛顿出席第三轮中美战略与经济对话。我们这次对话正值中美关系史上一个不同寻常的时间节点：今年是中美开展“乒乓外交”和基辛格博士秘密访华40周年。40年前，中美两国人民的友好意愿和政治家的决断勇气，汇成一股不可阻挡的历史潮流，轰然推开了尘封20多年的中美两国交往的大门，自那以后，世界上再也没有任何力量能够把这扇大门重新关上了。今天，我们相聚在这里，回首过去几十个岁月，展望中美关系更好的未来，我们情不自禁地要向中美关系的破冰者、开拓者和建设者们致以崇高的敬意。我们更要以他们当年那样的远见卓识和开拓精神，推动中美关系的车轮继续滚滚向前。

It is a great pleasure for me to join you at the third round of the China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogues(S&ED)here in Washington.We meet at a unique point in the history of China-US relations, as this year marks the 40th anniversary of the ping-pong diplomacy and of Dr.Kissinger's secret visit to China.Forty years ago, the desire of the Chinese and American people for friendly interactions, together with the decisiveness and courage of our political leaders, produced an unstoppable force of history.It pushed open the door of engagement between our two countries that had remained shut for over 20 years.Since then, no force in the world has ever had the power to close that door again.Today, as we review the past and look ahead to a better future of China-US relations, we cannot but pay high tribute to those ice-breakers, pioneers and builders of China-US relations.More importantly, we shall learn from their foresight and pioneering spirit, because we have to bring China-US relations forward.当前，中美关系同样处在一个重要的历史节点上。我们刚刚跨入本世纪第二个十年，正是在这个时候，胡锦涛主席同奥巴马总统今年1月在华盛顿会晤，共同决定了建立和发展相互尊重、互利共赢的合作伙伴关系，为中美关系未来发展指明了方向。历史正在并将继续证明，两国元首作出的这一决定是一个顺应和平与发展历史潮流、造福于中美两国人民、造福于全人类的历史性重大决定。

The China-US relationship, too, is at an extremely important point in history.President Hu Jintao and President Obama met in Washington this past January, a time when we have just entered the second decade of the 21st century.Together, the two Presidents decided to build a cooperative partnership based on mutual respect and mutual benefit, charting a clear course for the future of China-US relations.History will show that the decision they made is a historic one that accords with the tide of history and serves the benefit of the people of China, the United States and the world.诚然，要把这个重大的决定不折不扣地变成活生生的现实，把誓言变成实实在在的行动，不是一件容易的事情，必然会遇到种种困难、阻力和干扰。但我相信，只要中美双方都看清21世纪和平、发展、合作的世界大势，毫不动摇地坚持两国元首确定的大方向，下定决心，排除万难，就一定能走出一条崭新的相互尊重、和谐相处、合作共赢的大国关系路子来，中美两国人民和我们的子孙后代就一定能够持久地生活在和平、友谊、合作的阳光之中。

Admittedly, it is no easy task to make this major decision a living reality and turn commitment into real actions, as we face all sorts of difficulties, obstacles and interference on the way ahead.I am confident, however, that so long as both sides grasp the right trend of the world and of China-US relations in the 21st century, stick to the direction set by our Presidents with resolution, and never waver in our determination to overcome whatever difficulties coming our way, we will blaze a new path of major-country relations featuring mutual respect, harmonious coexistence and win-win cooperation, so that our people and our future generations will live in the sunshine of lasting peace, friendship and cooperation.此刻，站在你们各位面前致辞的已是古稀之年的老人了，按理应该回家同儿孙相聚、共享天伦之乐了，为什么还在不停地奔忙于太平洋两岸，一次又一次地同我的美国伙伴们坦诚对话，倾心交流呢？就是要落实两国元首达成的共识，为了一个崇高目标：使中美两国和两国人民成为永久的好朋友、好伙伴，使我们各自子孙后代幸福安宁。难道我们应当让他们失望吗？不，绝对不能！他们的失望，就意味着我们的失职。而失职是不能原谅的。

I am standing here addressing you as a 70-year old man, an age when I should have gone home and enjoy the company of my children and grandchildren.Why then am I still flying across the Pacific and sitting in round after round of candid and heart-to-heart dialogues with my American partners? I am doing this to implement the consensus of our Presidents for the achievement of one lofty goal: to make our two countries and peoples forever good friends and good partners, and to enable our children and children's children to live in peace and happiness.Could we ever let them down? The answer is no, a definite no.If we do, we would be failing our duty, and that would be unforgivable.朋友们，中美两国人民同住一个“地球村”，你们在西头，我们在东头。欢迎更多的美国朋友到我们那里去走一走，看一看，聊一聊，亲身感受中国人民对美国人民的友好感情，亲身体验中美关系是何等的重要，亲身了解中国在包括人权事业在内的各个方面取得的巨大进步，亲身了解什么是真实的中国。

Dear friends, the people of China and the United States live in the same “global village”, you on the west side and we the east.I welcome more American friends to visit China to see and feel for yourselves the friendship of the Chinese people and the importance of China-US relations.You may also learn first-hand the enormous progress China has made in various fronts, including in human rights.最后，祝此轮对话顺利、成功！

To conclude, I wish this round of dialogues full success.

Washington DC, 9 May 201

1尊敬的克林顿国务卿和盖特纳财长，尊敬的王岐山副总理，女士们、先生们、朋友们：

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton,Secretary of the Treasury Timothy Geithner,Vice Premier Wang Qishan,Ladies and Gentlemen,Dear Friends,很高兴来华盛顿出席第三轮中美战略与经济对话。我们这次对话正值中美关系史上一个不同寻常的时间节点：今年是中美开展“乒乓外交”和基辛格博士秘密访华40周年。40年前，中美两国人民的友好意愿和政治家的决断勇气，汇成一股不可阻挡的历史潮流，轰然推开了尘封20多年的中美两国交往的大门，自那以后，世界上再也没有任何力量能够把这扇大门重新关上了。今天，我们相聚在这里，回首过去几十个岁月，展望中美关系更好的未来，我们情不自禁地要向中美关系的破冰者、开拓者和建设者们致以崇高的敬意。我们更要以他们当年那样的远见卓识和开拓精神，推动中美关系的车轮继续滚滚向前。

It is a great pleasure for me to join you at the third round of the China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogues(S&ED)here in Washington.We meet at a unique point in the history of China-US relations, as this year marks the 40th anniversary of the ping-pong diplomacy and of Dr.Kissinger’s secret visit to China.Forty years ago, the desire of the Chinese and American people for friendly interactions, together with the decisiveness and courage of our political leaders, produced an unstoppable force of history.It pushed open the door of engagement between our two countries that had remained shut for over 20 years.Since then, no force in the world has ever had the power to close that door again.Today, as we review the past and look ahead to a better future of China-US relations, we cannot but pay high tribute to those ice-breakers, pioneers and builders of China-US relations.More importantly, we shall learn from their foresight and pioneering spirit, because we have to bring China-US relations forward.当前，中美关系同样处在一个重要的历史节点上。我们刚刚跨入本世纪第二个十年，正是在这个时候，胡锦涛主席同奥巴马总统今年1月在华盛顿会晤，共同决定了建立和发展相互尊重、互利共赢的合作伙伴关系，为中美关系未来发展指明了方向。历史正在并将继续证明，两国元首作出的这一决定是一个顺应和平与发展历史潮流、造福于中美两国人民、造福于全人类的历史性重大决定。

The China-US relationship, too, is at an extremely important point in history.President Hu Jintao and President Obama met in Washington this past January, a time when we have just entered the second decade of the 21st century.Together, the two Presidents decided to build a cooperative partnership

based on mutual respect and mutual benefit, charting a clear course for the future of China-US relations.History will show that the decision they made is a historic one that accords with the tide of history and serves the benefit of the people of China, the United States and the world.诚然，要把这个重大的决定不折不扣地变成活生生的现实，把誓言变成实实在在的行动，不是一件容易的事情，必然会遇到种种困难、阻力和干扰。但我相信，只要中美双方都看清21世纪和平、发展、合作的世界大势，毫不动摇地坚持两国元首确定的大方向，下定决心，排除万难，就一定能走出一条崭新的相互尊重、和谐相处、合作共赢的大国关系路子来，中美两国人民和我们的子孙后代就一定能够持久地生活在和平、友谊、合作的阳光之中。

Admittedly, it is no easy task to make this major decision a living reality and turn commitment into real actions, as we face all sorts of difficulties, obstacles and interference on the way ahead.I am

confident, however, that so long as both sides grasp the right trend of the world and of China-US relations in the 21st century, stick to the direction set by our Presidents with resolution, and never waver in our determination to overcome whatever difficulties coming our way, we will blaze a new path of

major-country relations featuring mutual respect, harmonious coexistence and win-win cooperation, so that our people and our future generations will live in the sunshine of lasting peace, friendship and cooperation.此刻，站在你们各位面前致辞的已是古稀之年的老人了，按理应该回家同儿孙相聚、共享天伦之乐了，为什么还在不停地奔忙于太平洋两岸，一次又一次地同我的美国伙伴们坦诚对话，倾心交流呢？就是要落实两国元首达成的共识，为了一个崇高目标：使中美两国和两国人民成为永久的好朋友、好伙伴，使我们各自子孙后代幸福安宁。难道我们应当让他们失望吗？不，绝对不能！他们的失望，就意味着我们的失职。而失职是不能原谅的。

I am standing here addressing you as a 70-year old man, an age when I should have gone home and enjoy the company of my children and grandchildren.Why then am I still flying across the Pacific and sitting in round after round of candid and heart-to-heart dialogues with my American partners? I am doing this to implement the consensus of our Presidents for the achievement of one lofty goal: to make our two countries and peoples forever good friends and good partners, and to enable our children and children’s children to live in peace and happiness.Could we ever let them down? The answer is no, a definite no.If we do, we would be failing our duty, and that would be unforgivable.朋友们，中美两国人民同住一个“地球村”，你们在西头，我们在东头。欢迎更多的美国朋友到我们那里去走一走，看一看，聊一聊，亲身感受中国人民对美国人民的友好感情，亲身体验中美关系是何等的重要，亲身了解中国在包括人权事业在内的各个方面取得的巨大进步，亲身了解什么是真实的中国。

Dear friends, the people of China and the United States live in the same “global village”, you on the west side and we the east.I welcome more American friends to visit China to see and feel for yourselves the friendship of the Chinese people and the importance of China-US relations.You may also learn first-hand the enormous progress China has made in various fronts, including in human rights.最后，祝此轮对话顺利、成功！

To conclude, I wish this round of dialogues full success.
