與中國戰(zhàn)略對話，美國的“底牌”在哪里？

【美國當?shù)貢r間6月23日上午9時，為期兩天的第七輪中美戰(zhàn)略與經(jīng)濟對話在華盛頓揭幕。對話延續(xù)以往的高規(guī)格，中方代表是國務(wù)院副總理汪洋和國務(wù)委員楊潔篪，美方代表為美國國務(wù)卿克里、財長雅各布·盧。

同往年一樣，今年對話會議上，中美需要處理的棘手問題依然不少。南海問題、雙邊投資協(xié)定（BIT）、人民幣匯率、亞投行?中美在這些議題上能否達成共識？美國政治步入選舉季，習(xí)近平主席對話前傳遞的口信——“避免戰(zhàn)略誤解誤判，管控分歧”，時光不多的奧巴馬政府能夠意會嗎？美國的“底牌”又是什么？觀察者網(wǎng)專訪上海國際問題研究院美洲中心主任邵育群，為您深度解讀中美對話。】

中美戰(zhàn)略對話，美國也曾“矯情”過 觀察者網(wǎng)：

繼中國中央軍委副主席范長龍訪問美國之后，第七輪中美戰(zhàn)略與經(jīng)濟對話（SED）開啟，如何分析其意義？

邵育群：

中美戰(zhàn)略與經(jīng)濟對話進行多年進行以來，不斷積累，這個積累過程恰是中國往全球大國逐步發(fā)展的關(guān)鍵幾年，也是中美關(guān)系從雙邊走向全球的過程。第一輪對話是美國最先提出來的，但當中方同意后，美方又有些“矯情”，說只能跟美國的盟國進行戰(zhàn)略對話，跟中國只能進行高級（senior）對話。然而，談了一輪以后，美國意識到同中國談的全是戰(zhàn)略性問題。重新回顧中美進行戰(zhàn)略對話的整個過程中，我們可以知道，美方的心態(tài)是有所變化的，從第一輪到現(xiàn)在的第七輪，中國的心態(tài)也越來越成熟，越來越自信。

美國已在南海達到目的——塑造中國負面的形象 觀察者網(wǎng)：

中美最近在南海問題的分歧和爭論在本輪對話中可能會有什么樣的會談結(jié)果？難點在哪里？

邵育群：

南海問題非常熱，但是，正如中方領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人所言，南海問題不是中美之間的問題，美國不是一個聲索國，不是參與者。但美國現(xiàn)在非常積極，試圖在其中扮演角色，南海議題是美國重返亞太戰(zhàn)略的一個抓手，美國試圖尋找機會。中方非常清楚美國的戰(zhàn)略需求，以及在南海問題上真實想法，現(xiàn)在中美在南海問題上的分歧也比較大。

分析SED之前香格里拉峰會上美國防長卡特的演講，其實已經(jīng)很清楚了，美方不希望把這個事情越炒越熱。美國已經(jīng)達到了想達到的目的，即塑造中國負面的形象，這個目的達到了。有一些東南亞國家確實跟著美國，抱美國大腿。但是，南海問題繼續(xù)炒熱，就有失控的危險。這不符合美國利益，美國不希望跟中國在南海發(fā)生直接的沖突，所以又開始降溫。

SED之時，中美雙方還是希望能夠不要讓雙邊關(guān)系被南海問題“劫持”，因為中美之間可以談的事情太多了。如果雙方還圍繞暫時無法解決的南海問題吵半天，實際上對大家都是雙輸?shù)木置妗＿@次SED不能解決所謂的南海問題，也不可能因為SED南海分歧就消除了，南海議題會一直影響中美關(guān)系。但是，SED的作用就是給中美雙方一個進一步管控分歧的機會，這非常重要。

第一，不要讓南海問題對中美雙邊關(guān)系的負面影響越擴越大；

第二，就南海問題的本身來講，讓雙方先降溫，再從縮小分歧的角度去看；

第三，也是給相關(guān)國家發(fā)出信號，即中美兩個大國不愿意被第三方利用，讓一些懷有不可告人目的第三方清楚，很多事情不要做了，做了也沒有用的。

人民幣匯率已是美國國內(nèi)問題 觀察者網(wǎng)：

中美第七次戰(zhàn)略與經(jīng)濟對話期間有段插曲，針對此前美國財長敦促中國進行匯率改革，周小川稱，這并非美國官方的一致意見，只是美方在某些特定場合的說辭，人民幣匯率處于合理水平。如何看待中美在人民幣匯率問題上的分歧？

邵育群：

人民幣匯率其實是美國國內(nèi)問題，奧巴馬政府對外貿(mào)易政策受到國內(nèi)很大的挑戰(zhàn)，其之前為了推動TPP，提出了快速通道（TRA）法案，但在國會遇到很大阻力，民主黨內(nèi)部反對他。美國國內(nèi)的整個氣氛不利于奧巴馬推動對外貿(mào)易政策。現(xiàn)在又到選舉期，這里面有一個重要的議題就是，美國民眾對平等公正的呼聲越來越強烈。美國在整個全球化的進程中，不斷推全球貿(mào)易，美國國內(nèi)得益者和失益者的差距在越來越大，貧富分化在加劇，有很多美國中低層民眾的被剝奪感很強，會特別反對美國繼續(xù)推全球貿(mào)易政策，人民幣匯率問題隨之而來。談及貿(mào)易議題時，美國當局就會推卸稱中國故意在人民幣匯率上做手腳，或者操縱人民幣匯率來達到貿(mào)易當中的獲利。

未來選舉中，凡是要講到貿(mào)易，一定會牽出來人民幣匯率問題。美國也承認，中國在人民幣匯率改革問題上已經(jīng)做了很大努力，而且已經(jīng)取得很多成績。但為什么說他是在特定場合講的話呢？因為他要面對美國國內(nèi)的不同利益團體，他必須要說話讓他們滿意。

觀察者網(wǎng)：

國際貨幣基金組織（IMF）早些時候表示，歡迎人民幣納入SDR作為儲備貨幣，近期IMF也赴中國進行接觸。美國在人民幣SDR議題上持何種看法？

邵育群：

人民幣SDR議題對于美國來說是非常頭疼的問題。如果在SDR問題上不聽中國的聲音，或者不考慮中國的利益的話，美國會擔心AIIB搞出來的規(guī)則跟美國不一樣，美國希望盡量把中國納入美國的那套規(guī)則當中。但IMF派代表來中國談判，美方并不歡迎，這個問題也不會那么快解決。這里面有各方博弈的問題，不光是中美之間，還牽扯到歐洲、日本。美國希望保證自己的利益，犧牲歐洲、日本的利益。而有關(guān)另外兩方怎么看待人民幣SDR問題，就超出中美雙邊的問題了。

奧巴馬亞投行政策遭狠批 BIT談判仍有困難 觀察者網(wǎng)： 中國主導(dǎo)的亞投行和美國力推的TPP以及亞投行、世行之間的微妙關(guān)系被外界認為是本次對話的熱點，對此中美雙方會如何溝通？

邵育群：

中國做亞投行并非旨在挑戰(zhàn)美國，這里面不存在零和關(guān)系。其次，奧巴馬政府處理亞投行的政策，在華盛頓其實已經(jīng)被批的體無完膚了，不管是民主黨還是共和黨，美國國會、行政部門，甚至國務(wù)院成員、智庫都說奧巴馬政府當時要求盟國不要加入亞投行的做法是非常愚蠢的。

現(xiàn)在來看，第一，美國重視亞投行本身是一個很重要的新的多邊機制；

第二，美國也希望與亞投行進行一定程度上的互動；

第三，華盛頓內(nèi)部對亞投行仍然有比較負面的評價，至少有一部分人認為亞投行未來的發(fā)展方向是不明確的，也許會跟美國形成某種競爭關(guān)系，美國要非常謹慎的對待。所以，亞投行問題現(xiàn)在在華盛頓內(nèi)部還是一個比較敏感的問題。奧巴馬政府現(xiàn)在還是一個接觸的政策，希望跟亞投行有比較多的溝通，至少是在中美雙邊層面上，要了解中國對亞投行具體的一些想法，例如具體怎么做。世界銀行（WB）和亞洲開發(fā)銀行（ADB)實際是美國主導(dǎo)和日本主導(dǎo)的多邊機構(gòu)世界銀行與中國的合作關(guān)系是不錯的，從這個角度來講，世界銀行與亞投行進行協(xié)調(diào)溝通，甚至對話的可能都有。在中國，世界銀行一般被視為是美國主導(dǎo)的，但在華盛頓，很少有人會以為是美國主導(dǎo)的，因為美國世界老大做慣了，對多邊機構(gòu)一般不太在意，尤其對世界銀行，不覺得這個機構(gòu)是自己主導(dǎo)的。美國對世界銀行與亞投行之間的互動、協(xié)作、協(xié)調(diào)相對來說不太敏感，WB和AIIB之間有更多的合作、互動基礎(chǔ)。

我相對不太看好亞洲開發(fā)銀行，因為ADB是日本主導(dǎo)的，由于目前的中日關(guān)系，而且安倍政府的態(tài)勢還是要跟中國對著干，尤其是在發(fā)展援助上面，只要中國去什么地方，他一定要再花一點錢去爭取。所以從這個角度來看，我不太看好ADB與AIIB之間的合作。

觀察者網(wǎng)：

這次對話上，中美雙邊投資協(xié)定（BIT）尤為引外界關(guān)注。汪洋副總理就表示，很多中國企業(yè)長期以來一直受到美國針對中國投資的高壁壘困擾，如嚴格的安全審查。如何評價中美雙方在BIT上的立場，BIT取得突破的關(guān)鍵在哪里？中美負面清單已經(jīng)出爐，BIT談判有望在什么時候結(jié)束？ 邵育群：

之前，中美雙方一直在圍繞負面清單的長度以及中國在美國的投資如何得到合法的保護等議題進行談判，這些是比較難的點。中美戰(zhàn)略經(jīng)濟對話（SED）是把兩國政府各個主要相關(guān)部門的最高層領(lǐng)導(dǎo)都聚在一起，對推動BIT的談判有非常重要的作用，但目前看不出來雙方在這個問題上具體談到什么內(nèi)容。

BIT談判還是有比較大難度的，從美方的角度來講，比較關(guān)注負面清單的長度問題，還是覺得太長；從中方的講度來講，這個負面清單表面上是長短的問題，實際上牽涉到我們內(nèi)部的經(jīng)濟結(jié)構(gòu)，即中國本身經(jīng)濟發(fā)展的問題，所以，這里面不光是中美之間的事情，雙方還會有一個比較艱苦的談判過程。

美方從國家安全角度出發(fā)，在具有戰(zhàn)略性意義的基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施議題上，美方在BIT談判中的措辭比較模糊，這對于保護中方在美的投資利益是沒有保障的，不知道美方什么時候會用國家安全的名義來打斷中國投資或者說要求撤回投資等等。對此，美方需要向中方作出合理解釋，也是他們要在談判當中要講清楚的問題，這兩點還是比較艱難的。

BIT談判兩國政府都下決心在推動，但目前中美關(guān)系在華盛頓的氛圍不是很好，至少在SED之前，負面的聲音比較多，尤其是對中方的政策抱怨很多，有些聲音說要對BIT的核心條款、措辭要進行修改，這對雙方談判是不利的消息。而本輪SED如果大家的方向明確是要合作，會在一定程度扭轉(zhuǎn)局勢，對BIT談判有所幫助，BIT談判想在近期內(nèi)有比較明顯的突破，尚有難度。

“對話外交”彰顯大國外交的從容感 觀察者網(wǎng)：

這幾天除了第七輪中美戰(zhàn)略經(jīng)濟對話，還有第六輪的中美人文交流高層磋商，以及第五次的中美戰(zhàn)略安全對話，如何評價中國積極推行的“對話外交”的作用和意義？

邵育群：

第一，對話外交體現(xiàn)中國自信的一面。現(xiàn)在中美關(guān)系確實存在很多問題，但中方并沒有跟著美國的邏輯走。相反，中國非常有戰(zhàn)略定力，我們?nèi)匀挥X得對話是解決目前中美分歧的方式。按照汪洋副總理的說法，對話是成本最低的一種方式。那么，中方有這個戰(zhàn)略自信，才有這個定力去進行各方面對話，來保持中美關(guān)系的穩(wěn)定。中方的自信是非常重要的，我們有我們自己的節(jié)奏，到了一個時間點，該談什么就談什么。

第二，越來越顯示中國大國外交的靈活。現(xiàn)在中國外交已經(jīng)不局限于亞太地區(qū)，我們外交的影響力遍布全球，在這種情況下，美國戰(zhàn)略界的焦慮感實際上越來越強，比如近期頻頻拋出中國威脅論、中國不負責任，或者說中國崩潰論等，尤其在華盛頓一些所謂知華派的學(xué)者中，這種說法很多。在這種情況下，中國反而展現(xiàn)出大國外交的做法，靈活度很強，包括我們在南海島礁的吹填，做的基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施的建設(shè)等。

這次我們把人文磋商跟SED放在一起談，說明對中美關(guān)系的認識在提升，安全、經(jīng)濟離不開基礎(chǔ)——人文交流。中方看中美關(guān)系的視角也越來越大，越來越高，所站的層次越來越高，這點跟我在前面講的一個大國外交的從容感是有密切關(guān)系的。

中國有發(fā)展的手段，有援助的手段，也有軍事的手段，當然也有對話的形式，我們覺得哪種形式最符合國家利益就用哪種形式。我覺得這是一個大國外交越來越通融，越來越靈活的體現(xiàn)，對自己的國家利益非常清楚，中國的外交思路越來越明晰。

第二篇：美國副總統(tǒng)美中戰(zhàn)略與經(jīng)濟對話開幕式講話

Remarks by Vice President Joe Biden To the Opening Session of the U.S.-China Strategic & Economic Dialogue

Department of the Interior

Washington, D.C.May 9, 2011

美國副總統(tǒng)拜登在美中戰(zhàn)略與經(jīng)濟對話開幕式上的講話

華盛頓哥倫比亞特區(qū) 國內(nèi)資源部

2011年5月9日

Good morning.Thank you.Thank you, all.It’s an honor to welcome back to Washington for the third meeting of the Strategic and Economic Dialogue between the United States and China, two good friends.早上好。謝謝你們。謝謝你們大家。我榮幸地歡迎兩位好朋友再次來到華盛頓，參加美中戰(zhàn)略與經(jīng)濟對話第三次會議。

Let me acknowledge the co-chairs at the outset here.Vice Premier Wang and State Counselor Dai, welcome back.I got an opportunity to spend some time with you--not as much as my colleagues have--but your trip with President Hu was a great visit, and we got a chance to spend some time together.請允許我首先向兩位共同主席致意。王副總理和戴國務(wù)委員，歡迎你們再次到來。在你們隨同胡主席訪美期間，我曾有機會與你們見面，雖然與你們見面的時間不如我的一些同事長，但那次訪問非常成功，我們也有機會在一起一段時間。The United States co-chairs are our A-Team, our superstars: Secretary Clinton and Secretary Geithner, two of the best America has to offer, so we expect great things to happen.We expect great things to happen with the four of you.Ladies and gentlemen, we each have a number of important tasks in the days ahead and all designed to continue to guide our relationship to an even better place than it’s already moved.美方的兩位共同主席是我們的最佳組合，我們的超級明星：克林頓國務(wù)卿和蓋特納部長代表著美國最精英人士，因此，我們預(yù)期將會取得重大成果。我們預(yù)期你們四位將會取得重大成果。

Ladies and gentlemen, we each have a number of important tasks in the days ahead and all designed to continue to guide our relationship to an even better place than it’s already moved.女士們、先生們，我們每個人在今后的日子里都肩負著一系列重要任務(wù)，目的都是要繼續(xù)引導(dǎo)我們的關(guān)系在已有進展之上更上一層樓。

I also would like to recognize, by the way, Secretary Gary Locke, the President’s choice to be our next ambassador to China.Gary has served with distinction in the Cabinet, as well as before that serving as the governor of the state of Washington.And I know that once the Senate confirms Gary, and I expect that to be quickly, he’ll do an outstanding job in Beijing.(Applause.)There he is.我還要向駱家輝部長致意，他是總統(tǒng)選擇的新一任美國駐華大使。家輝作為內(nèi)閣成員業(yè)績卓著，在此前擔任華盛頓州州長期間亦表現(xiàn)出色。我知道，一旦參議院確認家輝的任命，而且我估計這會很快，他將在北京作出卓越的工作成績。（掌聲）他就在這里。

And I’m not going to mention the Trade Representative sitting next to you because I told him if he was able to deliver a deal on--with Korea, I would nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize.(Laughter.)He did and I have to.(Laughter.)我不想介紹坐在你們身旁的貿(mào)易代表，因為我對他說過，他若能促成同韓國的協(xié)定，我就提名他獲諾貝爾和平獎。（笑聲）他做到了，所以我也得這么做。（笑聲）

Any rate, I’ve made my--I hate to acknowledge this, gentlemen, but I made my first trip to China as a young man, meeting with Deng Xiaoping in 1979, in April of ’79.I was privileged to be with what I guess I’m now part of, a group of very senior senators at that time.I think we were the first delegation to meet after normalization--with senators like Jacob Javits of New York, and Frank Church, and a number of other very prominent members.話說回來。我年輕時第一次訪問中國——先生們，我不情愿承認這點——是在1979年4月，是同鄧小平會晤。我當時榮幸地與一些老一輩參議員同行，我想我現(xiàn) 在也屬他們之列了。我記得我們是關(guān)系正常化之后的第一個代表團，成員包括紐約州參議員雅各布·賈維茨、弗蘭克·丘奇以及其他一些非常重要的議員。And on that trip when we met with then Vice Premier Deng and witnessed the changes that were being initiated, beginning to spark China’s remarkable--absolutely remarkable transformation, even back then it was clear that there was--that great things were happening.And there was also a debate--there was a debate here in the United States and quite frankly throughout most of the West as whether a rising China was in the interest of the United States and the wider world.As a young member of a Foreign Relations Committee, I wrote and I said and I believed then what I believe now: That a rising China is a positive, positive development, not only for China but for America and the world writ large.在那次訪問期間，我們會晤了時任副總理的鄧小平，并目睹當時啟動的種種變化正在開始促發(fā)中國引人注目的——絕對是引人注目的轉(zhuǎn)型，即使在當時也已經(jīng)很清楚 ——巨變正在發(fā)生。當時還出現(xiàn)了一場辯論，在美國這里，坦率地說，在大部分西方世界，都出現(xiàn)了一場圍繞著一個崛起的中國是否符合美國及整個世界的利益的辯 論。作為對外關(guān)系委員會的一名年輕成員，我當時寫下、表述并且相信我現(xiàn)在所依然相信的：一個崛起的中國是一種積極的、積極的進展，不僅對中國而言，而且對 美國和全世界也是如此。When President Obama and I took office in January of 2009 we understood--we understood absolutely clearly that our relationship with China would be a key priority.The President and I were determined--determined to set the relationship on a stable course that could be sustained for decades.Our two countries, now the world’s two largest economies, were bound by ever-growing ties of commerce and investment.We, the United States, we always talk about what we import;we, the United States, exported $110 billion in American goods and services to China last year.奧巴馬總統(tǒng)和我在2009年就職時就理解——極為清楚地理解，我們與中國的關(guān)系將是一個關(guān)鍵重點。奧巴馬總統(tǒng)和我當時就下了決心，決心讓這個關(guān)系走上一條 穩(wěn)定的軌道，能夠幾十年保持下去。作為當今世界上兩個最大的經(jīng)濟體，我們兩國由與日俱增的商務(wù)和投資紐帶連結(jié)在一起。在美國，我們總是談?wù)撨M口；但去年，我們美國向中國出口了價值1100億美元的商品與服務(wù)。

But we’re bound my much more than commerce.Over the last three decades, our people have become increasingly linked through education, through work and through travel.Last year, 130,000 Chinese were studying in the United States.They’re really good.We’re going to try to keep some of them.I’m only joking.I’m only joking.(Laughter.)But they are.(Laughter.)但是，連接我們的遠遠不只是商務(wù)紐帶，過去30年中，我們兩國人民經(jīng)由教育、工作與旅游等方面的接觸已越來越緊密地聯(lián)系在一起。去年，有13萬中國人在美國學(xué)習(xí)，他們很優(yōu)秀，我們將設(shè)法留住他們一些人。我只是開玩笑。我只是開玩笑。（笑聲）。但他們真的很優(yōu)秀（笑聲）。

We cannot claim the same number of Americans in China, but our 100,000 Strong Initiative will dramatically increase the number of young Americans living and studying in China.As a matter of fact, my niece who--excuse me, as we say in the Senate, a point a personal privilege--who graduated from Harvard not too long ago, works for Secretary Geithner, she did exactly what we hope another 100,000 will do: She studied Chinese and went and lived in China and is now devoted to making sure the relationship gets better and better and better.我們無法稱我們也有同樣數(shù)目的美國人在中國學(xué)習(xí)，但是，“10萬留學(xué)生計劃”將大幅度增加在中國生活和學(xué)習(xí)的美國年輕人的人數(shù)。事實上，我的侄女——請原 諒這里使用一次我們在參議院常說的議員話語特權(quán)——她在不太久以前從哈佛大學(xué)畢業(yè)，現(xiàn)在在蓋特納部長手下工作。她就做了我們期望另外10萬人去做的事：學(xué)習(xí)中文，并到中國生活了一段時間，她現(xiàn)在投身的工作就是讓我們兩國關(guān)系變得越來越好，越來越好。

And we’re linked by our shared global responsibilities.We both serve as permanent members of the United Nations Security Council.We’re both Pacific powers.And for many of the world’s pressing challenges, it’s a simple fact, that when the United States and China are not at the table, the solution to the problem is less possible than when we are at the table.It’s no exaggeration to say that our relationship and how we manage it will help shape the 21st century.我們也因為我們共同承擔的全球性責任而連接在一起。我們都是聯(lián)合國安理會的常任理事國。我們也都是太平洋強國。就世界所面臨的許多緊迫挑戰(zhàn)來說，如果美國 和中國不坐到桌前，就比我們坐到桌前時達成解決方案的可能性要低，這是一個簡單的事實。可以毫不夸張地說，我們兩國之間的關(guān)系，以及我們?nèi)绾伟盐者@種關(guān) 系，將對21世紀的世界走向具有重大影響。

Our commitment starts at the top.Our Presidents have met face-to-face nine times in two and a half years.Nine times.President Hu, as I mentioned, was just here in January for what all would acknowledge was a very successful state visit.I’ll go back to China this sumer at the invitation of Vice President Xi, and I’m looking forward to hosting the Vice President for a reciprocal visit later this year.我們的承諾始于兩國政府最高層，在兩年半時間里，我們兩國首腦有過9次直接會面。9次。正如我剛提到的，胡主席就在1月時還來過這里，對美國進行了一次公 認的極為成功的國事訪問。我將于今年夏季受中國國家副主席習(xí)近平的邀請再次訪問中國，我也期待著接待習(xí)副主席在今年晚些時候來美國進行回訪。Even these frequent visits and summits, though, as you all know, are not enough on their own to sustain and build a relationship across our entire government, across all agencies.That's why we’re here.It’s not merely, merely our mil-to-mil or economic issues.We want to build a relationship across the entire spectrum of our governments.That’s why we’ve asked all of you to come together for these dialogues.如大家所知，即使有這些頻繁的訪問和峰會，光靠它們本身并不足以建立和保持貫穿于我們整個政府、涵蓋所有機構(gòu)的的良好關(guān)系。而這就是今天我們坐在這里的原 因。它所關(guān)系的不單單是軍方對軍方或經(jīng)濟類的問題，我們希望建設(shè)一個涵蓋我們兩國政府方方面面的關(guān)系。這也就是我們請你們大家來到這里進行對話的原因。

When President Obama launched the first strategic and economic dialogue in 2009, he issued a challenge to all of us to work together to address some of the defining problems of our time.Some would say that's somewhat presumptuous for China and the United States to decide we’re going to work on the defining problems, but as I said earlier, how we cooperate will define in significant part how we deal with the challenges that the world face in the beginning of the 21st century.當奧巴馬總統(tǒng)于2009年啟動首次戰(zhàn)略與經(jīng)濟對話時，他向我們所有人提出了一個挑戰(zhàn)，要我們齊心協(xié)力來應(yīng)對我們時代的一些具有決定意義的問題。有人或許會 說，由中國和美國一起來決定如何解決世界上的決定性問題未免有些自負，但正如我剛才所說，我們兩國如何合作，將在很大程度上決定我們?nèi)绾螒?yīng)對世界在21世 紀初所面臨的挑戰(zhàn)。

This is at the heart of our effort to build a cooperative partnership.We seek to cooperate to advance our mutual interests in not only promoting economic growth that is strong, sustainable and balanced, but trade that is free and is fair.We seek cooperation to advance our mutual interests in the prosperous future that will come from an energy supply that's clean and secure and addresses climate change.這是我們建立伙伴合作關(guān)系的核心所在。我們希望相互合作，促進雙方的共同利益，不僅推動強勁、可持續(xù)及平衡的經(jīng)濟增長，而且促進自由和公平的貿(mào)易。我們希望通過合作促進我們實現(xiàn)未來繁榮的共同利益，獲得潔凈、穩(wěn)定及能應(yīng)對氣候變化的能源供應(yīng)。

And we seek to cooperate to advance our mutual interests in a range of pressing global and regional security challenges.This includes continuing our work to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons and specifically to curb proliferation of those weapons and technology from both Iran and North Korea.我們希望通過相互合作，促進我們?yōu)閼?yīng)對一系列緊迫的全球和地區(qū)安全挑戰(zhàn)擁有的共同利益。其中包括繼續(xù)努力防止核武器擴散，特別是遏制這類武器和技術(shù)從伊朗和北韓向外擴散。

Where do we stand two years after the President issued his challenge that we cooperate more? Through this dialogue and the dedicated efforts of our governments and our people, I believe history will show we’ve made progress.兩年前，總統(tǒng)發(fā)出要求我們進一步加強合作的挑戰(zhàn)，如今我們進展如何？ 通過這一對話以及我們兩國政府及兩國人民的不懈努力，我認為，歷史會表明我們已取得進展。

But there's much more to do, and that's why we’re here.Along with our partners in the G20, we’ve worked to sustain global economic recovery.We’ve recognized that the United States-China relations generate global economic benefit, not just to both our countries, but global benefit.然而，還需要付出更多努力。這就是我們在這里進行對話的原因。我們與我們的20國集團合作伙伴一起，努力促進全球經(jīng)濟復(fù)蘇。我們認識到，美中關(guān)系為全球經(jīng)濟帶來益處，不僅有益于我們兩國，而且有益于全球。

Last year our trade with China supported over 500,000 jobs here in the United States, and we made tangible progress during President Hu’s visit, especially in the areas of innovation, intellectual property, and exports, all of which we’re following up on.去年，我們的對華貿(mào)易支持了美國國內(nèi)50多萬份工作機會。在胡主席來訪期間，我們?nèi)〉昧嗣黠@的進展，特別是在創(chuàng)新、知識產(chǎn)權(quán)和出口領(lǐng)域。我們在所有這些領(lǐng)域正繼續(xù)取得進展。

Over the next two days, we need to build on this momentum and to make sure our commitments are aggressively implemented so we can continue to move.今后兩天，我們需要在這個基礎(chǔ)上再接再勵，確保我們積極履行承諾，使我們能夠繼續(xù)往前推進。You may have noticed that there is a debate in this nation how best to secure America’s long-term fiscal future.We know that overcoming our economic challenges begin at home.We in the United States have to restore financial stability and we need to make the investments necessary, as well, to win the future.We need to maintain our commitment to what we believe, the President believes, is the pillars of our economic future: education, innovation, and infrastructure.你們可能已經(jīng)注意到，美國國內(nèi)正在就如何最有利地保障美國未來長期的財政穩(wěn)定進行辯論。我們知道，要解決我們的經(jīng)濟難題，首先需要從國內(nèi)開始。我們美國必 須恢復(fù)金融穩(wěn)定。我們還必須為贏得未來進行必要的投資。我們必須承諾堅持我們的信念及總統(tǒng)的信念：教育、創(chuàng)新及基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施是我國經(jīng)濟未來的支柱。I know that you’re adjusting to your economy in the world situation as well.I know that in China you're working to rebalance your economy and make growth more sustainable, with greater reliance on domestic demand.None of this is easy.我知道，在目前的世界局勢下，你們也在調(diào)整你們的經(jīng)濟。我知道，你們中國在努力重新平衡你們的經(jīng)濟，使增長更具有可持續(xù)性，更多地依賴國內(nèi)需求。這都并非易事。以我個人之見，成功地調(diào)整增長的方向，不僅對中國有利，也對美國乃至全世界有利。

But success in re-orienting growth will be not only good for China, in our humble opinion, but it will be good for the United States and for the rest of the world.The United States and China are the world’s largest producers and consumers of energy and we share the common challenges that flow from that.And this creates not only a problem, but great opportunity--great opportunity for common efforts to find clean energy solutions.Secretary Chu likes to say--and I love this expression--“Science is not a zero-sum game.” Science is not a zero-sum game.That amply is illustrated by the remarkable cooperation we've begun to forge in this area.Let me just mention one example.美國和中國是世界上最大的生產(chǎn)國和能源消費國，我們在這方面面臨著共同的挑戰(zhàn)。這不僅帶來了難題，同時也帶來了巨大的機會——共同尋找潔凈能源解決方案的 機會。朱棣文部長常說，我也喜歡這句話：“科學(xué)不是零和游戲”。科學(xué)并非零和游戲。我們在該領(lǐng)域已開始建立的非凡合作已經(jīng)為此給予最好的說明。我可以舉一 個例子說明這一點。

Our joint Clean Energy Research Center is funding new approaches to energy efficiency, clean coal--which we both need to deal with--and clean vehicles.We need to build on and expand our efforts in this area, and I know you’ll be doing--having much discussion these next two days on that area, and it seems to me an area where there’s potential for great progress.我們的清潔能源聯(lián)合研究中心正在提供資金，針對節(jié)能、潔凈煤——這方面我們兩國都需要處理——以及清潔車輛開辟新的途徑。我們需要在這一領(lǐng)域建立并擴大我們的努力。我知道，在今后兩天內(nèi)你們會在這方面舉行大量討論，在我看，這似乎是一個有可能取得很大進展的領(lǐng)域。

On global security challenges, we've also made progress.President Hu joined us at the Nuclear Security Summit--in January, we signed the memorandum of understanding to build a center for excellence to promote nuclear security in China.We have cooperated in stemming nuclear proliferation from both Iran and North Korea, including preventing sensitive technologies from being exported to both those countries.在應(yīng)對全球安全挑戰(zhàn)方面，我們也取得了進展。今年1月，胡主席與我們一同參加核安全峰會，我們簽署了為建立促進中國核安保示范研究中心的諒解備忘錄。我們在遏制核武器從伊朗和北韓擴散方面進行了合作，其中包括防止把敏感技術(shù)出口到這兩個國家。

The strategic dialogue is important to both our countries.Just look at the agenda that you have for the next two days.It’s a fulsome agenda.To list just a few of the topics on the agenda for the next two days--and it illustrates the sheer breadth of our relationship: Climate change;clean energy;mil-to-mil operations--our military relationships;regional issues such as Sudan and Afghanistan.戰(zhàn)略對話對我們兩國都十分重要。只要看一下今后兩天你們的工作議程。這是一個很滿的議程。只需略微列出幾項今后兩天議程中所要討論的題目，就能說明我們兩 國關(guān)系的極其廣泛程度： 氣候變化 ；清潔能源 ；軍方與軍方之間的行動——我們兩國的軍事關(guān)系 ；以及諸如蘇丹和阿富汗等地區(qū)性問題。

Our goal--our goal, in part, is to enhance the communication and understanding that we believe, and I believe you believe, will build trust and confidence.We have to be honest with each other.We are not going to agree on everything;we will clearly find areas where there will still be disagreement.But as we work to advance our respective national interest, we have to move on what we seek in common, find the common ground, and I would argue much of our mutual national interest will find common ground.But only by discussing a diverse range of topics, including sensitive ones, can we help mitigate the risk of misperception and miscalculation.我們的目標——我們的目標在部分程度上，是為了加強溝通與理解——我們相信，而且我相信你們相信，這將會建立信任和信心。我們彼此一定要以誠相待。我們不 會在所有問題上達成一致 ；我們顯然會發(fā)現(xiàn)我們?nèi)匀贿€有分歧的領(lǐng)域。但我們在致力于促進各自國家利益的同時，必須在我們共同尋求的問題上取得進展，找到共同點；而且我可以說，在彼 此國家利益的很多方面，我們會發(fā)現(xiàn)共同點。但只有通過探討范圍廣泛的議題，包括敏感議題在內(nèi)，我們才能幫助減少誤解和誤判的風險。

My father used to say the only disagreement worse than one that is intended is one that is unintended.That's why it’s so critically important we talk to one another honestly.We should be realistic;we won't always be able to work together.In some areas we have vigorous disagreement.In some we'll have vigorous competition.In still others we'll have vigorous collaboration.我父親過去常說，唯一比意料中更糟糕的分歧，是意外的分歧。這就是我們在對話時彼此坦誠相見為什么極其至關(guān)重要的原因。我們應(yīng)該實事求是；我們不會所有時 候都能合作。在某些領(lǐng)域，我們有強烈的分歧。在另一些領(lǐng)域，我們存在激烈的競爭。而在此外的一些領(lǐng)域，我們會有積極的合作。

But I believe on balance we have much more to agree on than to disagree on, and so does the President believe that.A healthy competition, in our view, is good for both of us.Competition is not bad.Competition that’s healthy is good.This is the reason why I’ve held the view for so many years and continue to hold the view that a rising China is a positive development.As you might expect, it’s my--I have overwhelming confidence in the capabilities of the American people.And those capabilities are enhanced when there’s genuine competition from equally capable people.I welcome this healthy and fair competition because I believe we’ll see it will spur us both to innovate and both will benefit from it.但我認為：總的說來，我們一致的地方比不一致的地方要多得多，奧巴馬總統(tǒng)也持同樣看法。良性競爭，在我們看來，對我們兩國都有利。競爭不是壞事。良性競爭是好事。

這就是我多年來之所以持這一觀點并將繼續(xù)持這樣一個觀點的原因，即：中國的崛起是一個積極的發(fā)展。你們可以料到，我對美國人民的能力懷有絕對信心。而通過 與有同樣能力的人民進行真正的競爭，這些能力會得到提高。我歡迎這種良性與公平的競爭，因為我認為，我們將看到這種競爭會激勵我們兩國人民去創(chuàng)新，并且兩 國人民都將從中受益。

As I’ve said earlier, it’s important to be straightforward with one another.There is one area where we have vigorous disagreement.And I know and I understand that disagreement, when we voice it, is upsetting or rankles--I don’t know how that translates into Chinese--but how it concerns some of our friends in China.We have vigorous disagreement in the area of human rights.就像我前面談到的，我們彼此開誠布公很重要。我們有一個存在強烈分歧的領(lǐng)域。我知道也理解，這個分歧，當我們表達出來時，會引起不快或刺激——我不知道這詞翻譯成中文是什么意思——但它讓我們在中國的一些朋友擔憂。我們在人權(quán)領(lǐng)域存在強烈分歧。

We’ve noted our concerns about the recent crackdown in China, including attacks, arrests and the disappearance of journalists, lawyers, bloggers and artists.And again, no relationship that’s real can be built on a false foundation.Where we disagree, it’s important to state it.We’ll continue to express our views in these issues, as we did in the Human Rights Dialogue in Beijing two weeks ago.我們提出了我們對中國最近發(fā)生的鎮(zhèn)壓的關(guān)注，包括記者、律師、博客作者和藝術(shù)家被攻擊、逮捕或者失蹤。如前所述，任何真正的關(guān)系都不可能建立在虛假的基礎(chǔ) 上。當我們發(fā)生分歧時，需要言明。我們將會繼續(xù)表達我們對這些問題的看法，就像我們兩個星期前在北京舉行人權(quán)對話時一樣。

Now, look, as I said, I recognize that some in China see our advocacy as--human rights as an intrusion and Lord only knows what else.But President Obama and I believe strongly, as does the Secretary, that protecting fundamental rights and freedoms such as those enshrined in China’s international commitments, as well as in China’s own constitution, is the best way to promote long-term stability and prosperity of any society.我說過，我知道中國有些人將我們倡導(dǎo)人權(quán)視為一種干涉，還有天知道什么其他說法。但是奧巴馬總統(tǒng)和我堅決相信，國務(wù)卿也同樣相信，保護那些包含在中國作出的國際承諾以及中國自身憲法中的基本權(quán)利和自由，是促進任何一個社會的長期穩(wěn)定和繁榮的最佳途徑。

The transformation of China’s economy and society since my first trip as a young man in 1979 has truly been breathtaking.I doubt whether it’s occurred at any other period in world history--it’s been so significant and so rapid.The immense talent of the Chinese people, the incredible hard work and perseverance of the Chinese people and their leaders have literally lifted tens of millions of people out of poverty and built an economy that now helps fuel the world’s prosperity.It’s remarkable.自從1979年我年輕時第一次去訪問以來，中國經(jīng)濟和社會的變化確實十分驚人。我不知世界歷史的任何時期是否出現(xiàn)過這種情況——如此巨大，如此迅速。中國 人民以自己極大的才能，中國人民及其領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人通過令人不可思議的勤奮努力和鍥而不舍精神，名副其實地讓千百萬人擺脫了貧困，建立起一個如今幫助帶動世界繁榮 的經(jīng)濟。這非常了不起。

During this same period, the relationship between the United States and China has also seen a remarkable transformation--again, through the talent, hard work and respected political leaders who have governed our countries over the last three decades.在這同一時期內(nèi)，美中兩國關(guān)系也出現(xiàn)了驚人的轉(zhuǎn)化——同樣是由于過去30年來在我們兩個國家當政的令人尊敬的政治領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人的才華和辛勤努力。

The bonds between our country--our countries come about through--have come about through intense engagement from the moment of normalization--events like this one.We’ve already done much to make our relationship positive, cooperative, and comprehensive.And I’m absolutely confident that we can do more for ourselves and for generations of Americans and Chinese as well.我們兩國的紐帶是通過自關(guān)系正常化之日起的密切交往而形成——像現(xiàn)在這樣的種種活動。我們?yōu)榻⒎e極、合作和全面的關(guān)系作出了大量努力。我絕對相信，我們可以為我們自己以及美國和中國的子孫后代做得更多。And as I said, presumptuous of me to say this, if that occurs and continues to occur, it will benefit the whole world.So now it’s time to get to work.如我所說，恕我冒昧這樣說，當那種情況出現(xiàn)并且繼續(xù)出現(xiàn)時，全世界都將受益。因此，現(xiàn)在應(yīng)該開始行動。

Again, welcome, gentlemen;welcome to your delegations.And I thank you all for the honor of being able to address you.Thank you very much.再次向各位表示歡迎；歡迎你們代表團。感謝讓我榮幸地向各位發(fā)表講話。多謝大家。

Remarks at Plenary Session of the U.S.-China Strategic and

Economic Dialogue Hillary Rodham Clinton, Secretary of State

Washington, DC July 27, 2009 希拉里·克林頓國務(wù)卿在美中戰(zhàn)略與經(jīng)濟對話全體會議上發(fā)表的講話

華盛頓哥倫比亞特區(qū) 2009年7月27日

Good morning.And Zhongxing Huanyin.早上好。[用中文說]衷心歡迎。

It is a privilege to open this inaugural meeting of the Strategic and Economic Dialogue between the United States and China.I am especially pleased to join my co-chair, Secretary Geithner, and to welcome State Councilor Dai and Vice Premier Wang.I look forward to resuming the productive discussions I had with Councilor Dai, President Hu, and Premier Wen on my trip to China in February, and to build on President Obama and President Hu’s meeting in London.十分榮幸能在美中兩國之間的戰(zhàn)略與經(jīng)濟對話首次會議開幕式上致辭。我特別高興能與蓋特納（Geithner）部長共同主持會議，并歡迎王岐山副總理和戴秉國國務(wù)委員。我期待著繼續(xù)我2月訪華期間與戴秉國國務(wù)委員、胡錦濤主席和溫家寶總理進行的富有成果的討論，并在奧巴馬總統(tǒng)和胡錦濤主席倫敦會晤的基礎(chǔ)上取得更多成果。

This is both a culmination, and a beginning.A culmination of actions taken by our predecessors 30 years ago, when the United States and China established formal diplomatic relations, and Deng Xiaoping launched China’s economic reform and opening to the world.What followed was a blossoming of Chinese economic growth and diplomatic engagement that has allowed our nations to reach this place of opportunity today.這一對話既是一個結(jié)果又是一個開端。作為結(jié)果，它源于我們的前任們30年前所采取的行動。那時，美中兩國建立了正式外交關(guān)系，鄧小平發(fā)起了中國的經(jīng)濟改革并實行對外開放。隨之而來的是中國經(jīng)濟的蓬勃發(fā)展和使我們兩國到達今天機遇之地的外交接觸。

This dialogue also marks a beginning – the beginning of an unprecedented effort to lay the foundation for a positive, cooperative, and comprehensive U.S.-Chinese relationship for the 21st century.這一對話也標志著一個開端——一個為建立21世紀積極、合作、全面的美中關(guān)系奠定基礎(chǔ)而作出前所未有努力的開端。

That so many members of President Obama’s cabinet are here reflects our belief that a stronger relationship will yield rewards, not only for our two nations, but for the world beyond.奧巴馬總統(tǒng)內(nèi)閣的眾多閣員今天與會反映了我們的一個信念，即更牢固的美中關(guān)系不僅會使我們兩國受益，而且會使整個世界受益。

For in the decades ahead, great countries will be defined less by their power to dominate or divide than by their capacity to solve problems.It is this reality – and the fact that no country can solve today’s challenges alone – that demands a new global architecture for progress.因為在未來數(shù)十年內(nèi)，偉大國家的特征將不是其控制和分割他國的力量，而是其解決問題的能力。正是這一現(xiàn)實——以及沒有任何國家能單獨應(yīng)對今天面臨的挑戰(zhàn)這一事實——要求建立一個新的爭取進步的全球架構(gòu)。

Although past relations between the United States and China have been influenced by the idea of a balance of power among great nations, the fresh thinking of the 21st century can move us from a multi-polar world to a multi-partner world.And it is our hope that the dialogue we initiate today will enable us to shape that common agenda.盡管美國和中國以往的關(guān)系受到大國間權(quán)力平衡的觀點的影響，但21世紀全新的思維能使我們從一個多極世界走向一個多伙伴世界。我們希望今天啟動的對話將使我們能夠確立這個共同議程。

Our nations face common global threats, from the economic crisis, to non-proliferation, climate change and clean energy, pandemic disease and global poverty, North Korea, Iran, and extremism in Afghanistan and Pakistan.我們兩國面臨著同樣的全球性威脅，從經(jīng)濟危機到防擴散，從氣候變化到清潔能源，從大規(guī)模流行性疾病到全球貧困，從北韓到伊朗，還有阿富汗和巴基斯坦的極端主義勢力。

To meet these threats, we must find common ground and work together in common purpose, even as we may disagree on certain issues.為了應(yīng)對這些威脅，我們必須找到共同之處并向著共同目標一起努力，即使我們可能在某些問題上存在分歧。

As we’ll hear from the President later this morning, the Obama Administration is committed to broader engagement – to using robust diplomacy and development and working with and beyond government to solve regional and global problems and take advantage of the unprecedented opportunities they present.今天上午我們將會聽到總統(tǒng)闡明，奧巴馬政府致力于更廣泛的接觸——利用有力的外交和發(fā)展手段，同政府及非政府人士合作解決區(qū)域性和全球性問題，并把握它們所帶來的前所未有的機會。

When I was in China in February, it was my first time back in almost a decade.And I was struck, as many visitors are, by the transformation that had taken place.Driving on the third ring road in Beijing, I felt like was watching a movie in fast-forward.From a few high rise buildings on my last trip, to a gleaming Olympic complex and corporate skyscrapers today.From millions of Flying Pigeon bicycles navigating the streets, to cars of every model traversing modern thoroughfares.And for those traveling to Shanghai, an already cosmopolitan city soon to add the Shanghai Expo.我今年二月訪問中國時，距我前一次訪問已有將近十年之久。我像很多來訪者一樣，被今昔的變化所震撼。驅(qū)車行駛在三環(huán)路上，我感到仿佛是在觀看一部快進的電影。我上次來時高樓大廈屈指可數(shù)，如今奧林匹克場館和摩天商務(wù)大廈令人眼花繚亂。過去有千百萬輛飛鴿牌自行車在大街小巷穿行，如今有各種型號的汽車在現(xiàn)代化公路上行駛。那些去上海的人還會看到上海世博會將為這個已經(jīng)發(fā)展成型的大都市增添光彩。

All are testaments to China’s dynamism and growth.And we welcome these signs of progress.這些都是中國蓬勃發(fā)展的見證。這些進步的氣象令我們感到高興。

We also welcome China’s role in promoting peace and stability in the Asia Pacific.Over the past 30 years, the United States has helped foster security in the region – a critical factor in China’s growth, and an important strategic interest of our own.In the future, we will remain actively engaged in promoting the security of Asia.When misunderstandings or disagreements arise, we will work through them peacefully and through intensive dialogue.我們還歡迎中國為促進亞太地區(qū)的和平與穩(wěn)定所發(fā)揮的作用。過去30年來，美國幫助建立該地區(qū)的安全，這對中國的增長至關(guān)重要，對我們自身的戰(zhàn)略利益也意義重大。未來，我們將繼續(xù)積極參與促進亞洲的安全。出現(xiàn)誤解或分歧時，我們將以和平方式并通過積極對話來予以解決。

This Strategic and Economic Dialogue differs from past dialogues in scope, substance, and approach.It is comprehensive by design, meant to enlist the full range of talent within our governments and to include cross-cutting challenges that are neither bureaucratically neat, nor easily compartmentalized.本屆戰(zhàn)略與經(jīng)濟對話在廣度、實質(zhì)乃至方法上均不同于過去的對話。其形式結(jié)構(gòu)力求全面，以便充分利用兩國政府內(nèi)部的聰明才智，解決那些在行政體制上無法按部門截然劃分的問題。

With this dialogue we are laying, brick by brick, the foundation of a stronger relationship – improving lines of communication;increasing understanding;setting priorities;and creating a work plan.通過這一對話，我們正腳踏實地為加強關(guān)系而奠定基礎(chǔ)，改善交流途徑，增強理解，制定重點目標和工作計劃。

Our agenda will focus on several areas:

我們的議程將側(cè)重于以下幾個方面： First, the economic recovery.Repairing the global economy is a priority for both the United States and China.We have taken aggressive action at home to stimulate our economy and stabilize our financial institutions.China has taken similarly bold steps and we both agree that further economic and financial cooperation is necessary for global recovery.第一，經(jīng)濟復(fù)蘇。修復(fù)全球經(jīng)濟是美中兩國的首要目標。我們已在國內(nèi)采取果斷行動，以刺激經(jīng)濟和穩(wěn)定金融機構(gòu)。中國已采取類似的大膽措施，而且我們雙方均認為，進一步的經(jīng)濟和金融合作對全球復(fù)蘇是必要的。

Second, climate change and clean energy.As the world’s two biggest emitters, we must demonstrate to the developed and developing world that clean energy and economic growth can go hand-in-hand.We are already involved in promising partnerships.In Beijing, I toured a geo-thermal plant that is a true U.S.-Chinese collaboration.General Electric has provided high-tech equipment to produce heat and power with half the emissions, and far less water usage than the coal plants that are typically relied on.And Chinese businesses build the steam turbines that help to power the plant.This plant saves costs and provides clean energy – including heat for the U.S.Embassy.第二，氣候變化和清潔能源。作為世界上兩個最大的排放國，我們必須向發(fā)達和發(fā)展中國家表明，清潔能源和經(jīng)濟增長能夠同步進行。我們已在進行充滿希望的合作。在北京期間，我參觀了一家地熱工廠，這是名副其實的美中合作。通用電氣公司提供的高科技設(shè)備被用于產(chǎn)熱發(fā)電，與通常燃煤的火力發(fā)電相比，排放減少了一半，用水量也大大下降。中國公司則制造了工廠發(fā)電用的燃氣輪機。該廠在節(jié)省成本的基礎(chǔ)上提供了清潔能源，包括為美國大使館提供熱能。

Third, security challenges.I just attended the ASEAN conference in Thailand, where the North Korean regime’s recent provocations were a subject of great concern.China and the United States both appreciate the dangers of escalating tensions and a prospective arms race in East Asia;and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.第三，安全挑戰(zhàn)。我剛剛出席了在泰國舉行的東盟會議，北韓政權(quán)最近的挑釁行動成了大會十分關(guān)注的議題。中國和美國均認識到緊張局勢升級以及東亞可能發(fā)生的軍備競賽所導(dǎo)致的危險以及大規(guī)模毀滅性武器擴散的危險。

Already, China and the United States have worked together to contain dangerous actions on the part of North Korea.We are grateful for the Chinese government’s leadership in establishing the Six Party Talks and for its close cooperation in response to North Korean missile launches.In this dialogue, we will discuss ways to work jointly to persuade the regime to agree to denuclearization and end its international isolation.中美兩國已經(jīng)在進行合作，以遏制北韓方面的危險行動。我們感謝中國政府為設(shè)立六方會談所發(fā)揮的主導(dǎo)作用以及在應(yīng)對北韓導(dǎo)彈發(fā)射問題上所進行的密切合作。本屆對話期間，我們將探討如何共同努力以說服該政權(quán)同意實現(xiàn)無核化并結(jié)束其國際孤立狀態(tài)。

We will also discuss our common concerns about the nuclear weapons capability of Iran, and explore ways to address violent extremism and promote stability in Afghanistan and Pakistan.我們還將討論我們對伊朗核武器能力的共同關(guān)注，并探討清除暴力極端主義、促進阿富汗和巴基斯坦穩(wěn)定的方法。

Fourth, development.Under President Obama, development, like diplomacy, is an equally important pillar of American foreign policy.Many of the world’s threats stem from lack of opportunity which, in turn, leads to poverty, social erosion, and political instability.By addressing global scourges such as hunger, illiteracy, disease, and economic marginalization from the bottom up, and by insisting on accountability and adherence to the rule of law, we can widen opportunity and prosperity for more people in more places.第四，發(fā)展。在奧巴馬總統(tǒng)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)下，發(fā)展同外交一樣，是美國對外政策的重要支柱。世界上許多威脅的根源來自機會的缺乏，而機會缺乏進而導(dǎo)致貧困、社會解體及政治動蕩。通過自下而上地消除饑餓、文盲、疾病以及經(jīng)濟邊緣化等全球性災(zāi)難，堅持問責制和法治，我們能夠為更多地區(qū)的更多人帶來機會和繁榮。

None of these problems will be easy to solve, and results won’t happen overnight.We will not always see eye-to-eye, as is the case with human rights, where the United States will continue to be guided by the ideal that the rights of all people must be respected.Still, solutions to many of today’s global challenges are within reach if we work cooperatively where our interests intersect, and are honest with each other when they don’t.這些問題無一能輕易解決，也不會一夜之間就產(chǎn)生結(jié)果。我們的觀點并非全部一致，人權(quán)便是一例。美國將繼續(xù)恪守這樣的理念：所有人的權(quán)利都必須得到尊重。盡管如此，如果我們在利益一致的領(lǐng)域進行合作，并且在利益不一致時能做到開誠布公，那么我們就能夠成功應(yīng)對當今的許多全球性挑戰(zhàn)。

A well-known Chinese saying speaks of a sacred mountain in northern China near Confucius’ home.It says: “When people are of one mind and heart, they can move Mt.Tai."

中國有一句著名的俗語，講的是孔子家鄉(xiāng)附近的一座圣山。這句話是這樣說的：“人心齊，泰山移”。

We cannot expect to be united at every turn, but we can be of one mind and heart on the need to find common ground as we confront the shared challenges of the 21st century.The Obama Administration has embraced this dialogue with China early and energetically because we want to see it to fruition.This is an issue of great importance to me as Secretary of State, and I know the same is true for my colleagues and for our President.我們無法期待事事處處都保持一致，但就面臨21世紀的共同挑戰(zhàn)有必要找到共同立足點而言，我們能夠齊心協(xié)力。奧巴馬政府上任伊始就決定大力與中國展開對話，因為我們希望看到它結(jié)出碩果。作為國務(wù)卿，這對我本人是一個十分重要的問題，并且我知道對我的同事們和奧巴馬總統(tǒng)也是如此。

And now, it is my great honor to introduce Vice Premier Wang.現(xiàn)在，我非常榮幸地向大家介紹王副總理。

It is a privilege to open this inaugural meeting of the Strategic and Economic Dialogue between the United States and China.I am especially pleased to join my co-chair, Secretary Geithner, and to welcome State Councilor Dai and Vice Premier Wang.I look forward to resuming the productive discussions I had with Councilor Dai, President Hu, and Premier Wen on my trip to China in February, and to build on President Obama and President Hu’s meeting in London.十分榮幸能在美中兩國之間的戰(zhàn)略與經(jīng)濟對話首次會議開幕式上致辭。我特別高興能與蓋特納（Geithner）部長共同主持會議，并歡迎王岐山副總理和戴秉國國務(wù)委員。我期待著繼續(xù)我2月訪華期間與戴秉國國務(wù)委員、胡錦濤主席和溫家寶總理進行的富有成果的討論，并在奧巴馬總統(tǒng)和胡錦濤主席倫敦會晤的基礎(chǔ)上取得更多成果。

This is both a culmination, and a beginning.A culmination of actions taken by our predecessors 30 years ago, when the United States and China established formal diplomatic relations, and Deng Xiaoping launched China’s economic reform and opening to the world.What followed was a blossoming of Chinese economic growth and diplomatic engagement that has allowed our nations to reach this place of opportunity today.這一對話既是一個結(jié)果又是一個開端。作為結(jié)果，它源于我們的前任們30年前所采取的行動。那時，美中兩國建立了正式外交關(guān)系，鄧小平發(fā)起了中國的經(jīng)濟改革并實行對外開放。隨之而來的是中國經(jīng)濟的蓬勃發(fā)展和使我們兩國到達今天機遇之地的外交接觸。

This dialogue also marks a beginning – the beginning of an unprecedented effort to lay the foundation for a positive, cooperative, and comprehensive U.S.-Chinese relationship for the 21st century.這一對話也標志著一個開端——一個為建立21世紀積極、合作、全面的美中關(guān)系奠定基礎(chǔ)而作出前所未有努力的開端。

That so many members of President Obama’s cabinet are here reflects our belief that a stronger relationship will yield rewards, not only for our two nations, but for the world beyond.奧巴馬總統(tǒng)內(nèi)閣的眾多閣員今天與會反映了我們的一個信念，即更牢固的美中關(guān)系不僅會使我們兩國受益，而且會使整個世界受益。

For in the decades ahead, great countries will be defined less by their power to dominate or divide than by their capacity to solve problems.It is this reality – and the fact that no country can solve today’s challenges alone – that demands a new global architecture for progress.因為在未來數(shù)十年內(nèi)，偉大國家的特征將不是其控制和分割他國的力量，而是其解決問題的能力。正是這一現(xiàn)實——以及沒有任何國家能單獨應(yīng)對今天面臨的挑戰(zhàn)這一事實——要求建立一個新的爭取進步的全球架構(gòu)。

Although past relations between the United States and China have been influenced by the idea of a balance of power among great nations, the fresh thinking of the 21st century can move us from a multi-polar world to a multi-partner world.And it is our hope that the dialogue we initiate today will enable us to shape that common agenda.盡管美國和中國以往的關(guān)系受到大國間權(quán)力平衡的觀點的影響，但21世紀全新的思維能使我們從一個多極世界走向一個多伙伴世界。我們希望今天啟動的對話將使我們能夠確立這個共同議程。

Our nations face common global threats, from the economic crisis, to non-proliferation, climate change and clean energy, pandemic disease and global poverty, North Korea, Iran, and extremism in Afghanistan and Pakistan.我們兩國面臨著同樣的全球性威脅，從經(jīng)濟危機到防擴散，從氣候變化到清潔能源，從大規(guī)模流行性疾病到全球貧困，從北韓到伊朗，還有阿富汗和巴基斯坦的極端主義勢力。

To meet these threats, we must find common ground and work together in common purpose, even as we may disagree on certain issues.為了應(yīng)對這些威脅，我們必須找到共同之處并向著共同目標一起努力，即使我們可能在某些問題上存在分歧。

As we’ll hear from the President later this morning, the Obama Administration is committed to broader engagement – to using robust diplomacy and development and working with and beyond government to solve regional and global problems and take advantage of the unprecedented opportunities they present.今天上午我們將會聽到總統(tǒng)闡明，奧巴馬政府致力于更廣泛的接觸——利用有力的外交和發(fā)展手段，同政府及非政府人士合作解決區(qū)域性和全球性問題，并把握它們所帶來的前所未有的機會。

When I was in China in February, it was my first time back in almost a decade.And I was struck, as many visitors are, by the transformation that had taken place.Driving on the third ring road in Beijing, I felt like was watching a movie in fast-forward.From a few high rise buildings on my last trip, to a gleaming Olympic complex and corporate skyscrapers today.From millions of Flying Pigeon bicycles navigating the streets, to cars of every model traversing modern thoroughfares.And for those traveling to Shanghai, an already cosmopolitan city soon to add the Shanghai Expo.我今年二月訪問中國時，距我前一次訪問已有將近十年之久。我像很多來訪者一樣，被今昔的變化所震撼。驅(qū)車行駛在三環(huán)路上，我感到仿佛是在觀看一部快進的電影。我上次來時高樓大廈屈指可數(shù)，如今奧林匹克場館和摩天商務(wù)大廈令人眼花繚亂。過去有千百萬輛飛鴿牌自行車在大街小巷穿行，如今有各種型號的汽車在現(xiàn)代化公路上行駛。那些去上海的人還會看到上海世博會將為這個已經(jīng)發(fā)展成型的大都市增添光彩。

All are testaments to China’s dynamism and growth.And we welcome these signs of progress.這些都是中國蓬勃發(fā)展的見證。這些進步的氣象令我們感到高興。

We also welcome China’s role in promoting peace and stability in the Asia Pacific.Over the past 30 years, the United States has helped foster security in the region – a critical factor in China’s growth, and an important strategic interest of our own.In the future, we will remain actively engaged in promoting the security of Asia.When misunderstandings or disagreements arise, we will work through them peacefully and through intensive dialogue.我們還歡迎中國為促進亞太地區(qū)的和平與穩(wěn)定所發(fā)揮的作用。過去30年來，美國幫助建立該地區(qū)的安全，這對中國的增長至關(guān)重要，對我們自身的戰(zhàn)略利益也意義重大。未來，我們將繼續(xù)積極參與促進亞洲的安全。出現(xiàn)誤解或分歧時，我們將以和平方式并通過積極對話來予以解決。

This Strategic and Economic Dialogue differs from past dialogues in scope, substance, and approach.It is comprehensive by design, meant to enlist the full range of talent within our governments and to include cross-cutting challenges that are neither bureaucratically neat, nor easily compartmentalized.本屆戰(zhàn)略與經(jīng)濟對話在廣度、實質(zhì)乃至方法上均不同于過去的對話。其形式結(jié)構(gòu)力求全面，以便充分利用兩國政府內(nèi)部的聰明才智，解決那些在行政體制上無法按部門截然劃分的問題。

With this dialogue we are laying, brick by brick, the foundation of a stronger relationship – improving lines of communication;increasing understanding;setting priorities;and creating a work plan.通過這一對話，我們正腳踏實地為加強關(guān)系而奠定基礎(chǔ)，改善交流途徑，增強理解，制定重點目標和工作計劃。

Our agenda will focus on several areas:

我們的議程將側(cè)重于以下幾個方面：

First, the economic recovery.Repairing the global economy is a priority for both the United States and China.We have taken aggressive action at home to stimulate our economy and stabilize our financial institutions.China has taken similarly bold steps and we both agree that further economic and financial cooperation is necessary for global recovery.第一，經(jīng)濟復(fù)蘇。修復(fù)全球經(jīng)濟是美中兩國的首要目標。我們已在國內(nèi)采取果斷行動，以刺激經(jīng)濟和穩(wěn)定金融機構(gòu)。中國已采取類似的大膽措施，而且我們雙方均認為，進一步的經(jīng)濟和金融合作對全球復(fù)蘇是必要的。

Second, climate change and clean energy.As the world’s two biggest emitters, we must demonstrate to the developed and developing world that clean energy and economic growth can go hand-in-hand.We are already involved in promising partnerships.In Beijing, I toured a geo-thermal plant that is a true U.S.-Chinese collaboration.General Electric has provided high-tech equipment to produce heat and power with half the emissions, and far less water usage than the coal plants that are typically relied on.And Chinese businesses build the steam turbines that help to power the plant.This plant saves costs and provides clean energy – including heat for the U.S.Embassy.第二，氣候變化和清潔能源。作為世界上兩個最大的排放國，我們必須向發(fā)達和發(fā)展中國家表明，清潔能源和經(jīng)濟增長能夠同步進行。我們已在進行充滿希望的合作。在北京期間，我參觀了一家地熱工廠，這是名副其實的美中合作。通用電氣公司提供的高科技設(shè)備被用于產(chǎn)熱發(fā)電，與通常燃煤的火力發(fā)電相比，排放減少了一半，用水量也大大下降。中國公司則制造了工廠發(fā)電用的燃氣輪機。該廠在節(jié)省成本的基礎(chǔ)上提供了清潔能源，包括為美國大使館提供熱能。

Third, security challenges.I just attended the ASEAN conference in Thailand, where the North Korean regime’s recent provocations were a subject of great concern.China and the United States both appreciate the dangers of escalating tensions and a prospective arms race in East Asia;and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.第三，安全挑戰(zhàn)。我剛剛出席了在泰國舉行的東盟會議，北韓政權(quán)最近的挑釁行動成了大會十分關(guān)注的議題。中國和美國均認識到緊張局勢升級以及東亞可能發(fā)生的軍備競賽所導(dǎo)致的危險以及大規(guī)模毀滅性武器擴散的危險。

Already, China and the United States have worked together to contain dangerous actions on the part of North Korea.We are grateful for the Chinese government’s leadership in establishing the Six Party Talks and for its close cooperation in response to North Korean missile launches.In this dialogue, we will discuss ways to work jointly to persuade the regime to agree to denuclearization and end its international isolation.中美兩國已經(jīng)在進行合作，以遏制北韓方面的危險行動。我們感謝中國政府為設(shè)立六方會談所發(fā)揮的主導(dǎo)作用以及在應(yīng)對北韓導(dǎo)彈發(fā)射問題上所進行的密切合作。本屆對話期間，我們將探討如何共同努力以說服該政權(quán)同意實現(xiàn)無核化并結(jié)束其國際孤立狀態(tài)。

We will also discuss our common concerns about the nuclear weapons capability of Iran, and explore ways to address violent extremism and promote stability in Afghanistan and Pakistan.我們還將討論我們對伊朗核武器能力的共同關(guān)注，并探討清除暴力極端主義、促進阿富汗和巴基斯坦穩(wěn)定的方法。

Fourth, development.Under President Obama, development, like diplomacy, is an equally important pillar of American foreign policy.Many of the world’s threats stem from lack of opportunity which, in turn, leads to poverty, social erosion, and political instability.By addressing global scourges such as hunger, illiteracy, disease, and economic marginalization from the bottom up, and by insisting on accountability and adherence to the rule of law, we can widen opportunity and prosperity for more people in more places.第四，發(fā)展。在奧巴馬總統(tǒng)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)下，發(fā)展同外交一樣，是美國對外政策的重要支柱。世界上許多威脅的根源來自機會的缺乏，而機會缺乏進而導(dǎo)致貧困、社會解體及政治動蕩。通過自下而上地消除饑餓、文盲、疾病以及經(jīng)濟邊緣化等全球性災(zāi)難，堅持問責制和法治，我們能夠為更多地區(qū)的更多人帶來機會和繁榮。

None of these problems will be easy to solve, and results won’t happen overnight.We will not always see eye-to-eye, as is the case with human rights, where the United States will continue to be guided by the ideal that the rights of all people must be respected.Still, solutions to many of today’s global challenges are within reach if we work cooperatively where our interests intersect, and are honest with each other when they don’t.這些問題無一能輕易解決，也不會一夜之間就產(chǎn)生結(jié)果。我們的觀點并非全部一致，人權(quán)便是一例。美國將繼續(xù)恪守這樣的理念：所有人的權(quán)利都必須得到尊重。盡管如此，如果我們在利益一致的領(lǐng)域進行合作，并且在利益不一致時能做到開誠布公，那么我們就能夠成功應(yīng)對當今的許多全球性挑戰(zhàn)。

A well-known Chinese saying speaks of a sacred mountain in northern China near Confucius’ home.It says: “When people are of one mind and heart, they can move Mt.Tai."

中國有一句著名的俗語，講的是孔子家鄉(xiāng)附近的一座圣山。這句話是這樣說的：“人心齊，泰山移”。

We cannot expect to be united at every turn, but we can be of one mind and heart on the need to find common ground as we confront the shared challenges of the 21st century.The Obama Administration has embraced this dialogue with China early and energetically because we want to see it to fruition.This is an issue of great importance to me as Secretary of State, and I know the same is true for my colleagues and for our President.我們無法期待事事處處都保持一致，但就面臨21世紀的共同挑戰(zhàn)有必要找到共同立足點而言，我們能夠齊心協(xié)力。奧巴馬政府上任伊始就決定大力與中國展開對話，因為我們希望看到它結(jié)出碩果。作為國務(wù)卿，這對我本人是一個十分重要的問題，并且我知道對我的同事們和奧巴馬總統(tǒng)也是如此。

And now, it is my great honor to introduce Vice Premier Wang.現(xiàn)在，我非常榮幸地向大家介紹王副總理。
