(In progress)– Strategic and Economic Dialogue, and I know that both Secretary Geithner and I greatly appreciate all the work done by both of our delegations and the months of preparation for this meeting.I’ve read readings from President Obama and a letter from him expressing how important the Strategic and Economic Dialogue is to the U.S.-China relationship and how important this relationship is to the United States.(正在講話)--戰略與經濟對話,而且我知道蓋特納部長和我對于雙方代表的所有工作以及連月來的會議籌備都表示十分感謝。我已讀到歐巴馬總統的聲明以及一封信函,其中表明戰略與經濟對話對于美中關系的重要性,以及這一關系對于美國的重要性。
As President Obama says, the United States remains committed to building a cooperative partnership based on mutual benefit and mutual respect.Since we launched this dialogue three years ago, high-ranking officials from both our governments have criss-crossed the Pacific dozens of times.Our relationship has grown closer and more consequential, and the web of connections that link our nations is increasing.如同歐巴馬總統所言,美國繼續致力于建設一種基于互惠與互相尊重的合作關系。自從我們在三年前啟動這項對話以來,雙方政府的高級官員已在太平洋兩岸往返了數十次。我們的關系更加密切也更富成效,聯系我們兩國的紐帶也與日俱增。
As a result, this dialogue is even more necessary today than it was when it began, and the eyes of the world are once again upon us.The Chinese people and the American people looking for us to work together for their benefit, and the international community looking to us to work together for the world’s benefit;in today’s world, no global player can afford to treat geopolitics as a zero-sum game, so we are working to build a relationship that allows both of our countries to flourish without unhealthy competition or conflict, while at the same time meeting our responsibilities to our people and to the international community.因此,這項對話在今天比當年啟動時更為必要,世人的目光也再次注視著我們。中國人民和美國人民都希望我們共同為他們謀福利,國際社會也希望我們共同為世界謀福利;在今天的世界中,沒有任何全球大國能將地緣政治視為零和游戲,所以我們正在努力建立一種關系,使兩國能夠繁榮興盛,而且沒有不健康的競爭或沖突,同時滿足我們人民和國際社會的需求。
We both know that we have to get this right because so much depends upon it.We also both know that our countries have become thoroughly, inescapably interdependent.As President Obama and I have said many times, the United States believes that a thriving China is good for America, and a thriving America is good for China.So we have a strong interest in China’s continued economic growth and if China’s rising capabilities means that we have an increasingly able and engaged partner in solving the threats we face to both regional and global security, that is all good.我們都知道我們必須做得正確,因為這的確事關重大。我們都知道兩國已經完全地、不可避免地互相依賴。正如歐巴馬總統和我本人多次談到的,美國相信興盛的中國對美國有益,而興盛的美國同樣對中國有益。所以,中國持續的經濟增長關系到我們的重大利益,如果中國日益加強的能力意味著我們擁有一個越來越強大并投入的合作伙伴以解決我們雙方面臨的地區和全球安全威脅,那是非常好的事情。
Now, having said that, we understand too that building a cooperative, resilient, mutually beneficial relationship is not easy.That’s why this dialogue is so critical as well as the Strategic Security Dialogue that took place here yesterday.We are discussing how the talks are opening economic activity to advance prosperity, support innovation, and improve the lives of people, how to promote greater military transparency to avoid misunderstandings, to build trust and maintain mutual stability, how to tackle some of the world’s most urgent crises from climate change to proliferation.在此基礎上,我們也理解要建立一種合作、堅韌、互惠的關系并不容易。這就是這一對話以及昨天在此舉行的戰略安全對話如此重要的原因。我們討論了對話如何開啟經濟活動以促進繁榮、支持創新并改善人民生活,如何提倡提高軍事透明度以避免誤解,建立信任并維護共同穩定,如何應對全世界從氣候變化到核擴散的一系列最緊迫的危機。
The United States welcomes China’s increased engagement on the highest priority regional and global issues, and in our strategic track, we will be discussing these.For example, on Iran, the United States and China share the goal of preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.And we had a productive first meeting as members of the P-5+1 in Istanbul, and are looking forward to the next meeting in Baghdad because we both understand it is critical to keep pressure on Iran to meet its international obligations, to negotiate seriously, and prove that its nuclear program is solely for peaceful purposes.美國歡迎中國日益投入于最重要的地區和全球事務,我們將在戰略會談中對此進行討論。舉例而言,在伊朗問題上,美國和中國都抱有制止伊朗獲得核武器的目標。作為5常加1的成員,我們已在伊斯坦布爾召開了富于成效的第一次會議,并期待下一次會議在巴格達召開,因為我們雙方都理解,繼續對伊朗施壓以使它履行其國際義務、嚴肅地進行談判、并證明其核項目完全用于和平目的,都是至關重要的。
In Syria, we are absolutely committed to end the brutal violence against civilians, and therefore, it is essential that the international community work together to hold the regime and the others involved in violence accountable, because regrettably, the Security Council on which we both serve as current members is at stake.在敘利亞,我們堅定不移地致力于結束傷害平民的野蠻暴力行為;因此,國際社會協力追究實施暴力行為的敘利亞政權及其他人的責任至關重要;因為令人遺憾的是,我們目前都是其成員的安理會面臨信譽危機。
Regarding North Korea, the missile launch seems to suggest that Pyongyang actually used improved relations with the outside world not a goal, but as a threat.And we recognize the role that China is playing and are continuing to work together to make it clear to North Korea that strength and security will come from prioritizing the needs of its people, not from further provocation.至于北韓,它進行的導彈發射似乎暗示,平壤實際上不是把與外部世界關系的改善作為一項目標,而是作為一種威脅。我們了解中國正在發揮的作用,繼續協作,向北韓明確表示:北韓的力量與安全將來自優先考慮其人民的需求,而不是來自進一步的挑釁。
In Sudan and South Sudan, China and the United States are working together.In fact, with me today is the U.S.special envoy to Sudan who is in regular contact with the Chinese special representative for Africa.And I’m pleased that China and the United States joined with a unified international community just hours ago to support a strong UN security resolution that provides unambiguous support for the African Union roadmap.在蘇丹和南蘇丹,中國和美國正在共同努力。事實上,與中國駐非洲特別代表保持經常接觸的美國駐蘇丹特使今天與我一起出席會議。我感到高興的是,中國與美國就在幾個小時前與團結一致的國際社會一道支持聯合國關于安全問題的強有力決議,向非洲聯盟的路線圖提供明確無疑的支持。
Our countries are addressing everything from cyber security to the changes and reforms going on in Burma to piracy and so much else, because we know that we are working to better the lives of our people and a better future for all humanity.Now of course, as part of our dialogue, the United States raises the importance of human rights and fundamental freedoms because we believe that all governments do have to answer to citizens’ aspirations for dignity and the rule of law, and that no nation can or should deny those rights.我們兩國正在應對網絡安全、緬甸發生的變化與改革、盜竊知識產權以及許許多多的其他各種問題,因為我們知道我們正在努力改善我們兩國人民的生活,使全人類有一個更美好的未來。當然,作為我們對話的部分內容,美國提出人權與基本自由重要性的問題,因為我們認為各國政府都必須回應公民對尊嚴與法治的愿望,任何國家都不能也不應該拒絕這些權利。
As President Obama said this week, a China that protects the rights of all its citizens will be a stronger and more prosperous nation, and of course, a stronger partner on behalf of our common goals.The conversations we have here in Beijing reflect how much the U.S.-China relationship has grown in the 40 years since President Nixon came to China.Then, we had hardly any ties to speak of;now, we work together.I think it’s fair to say China and the United States cannot solve all the problems of the world, but without our cooperation, it is doubtful any problem can be solved.And so we are working as we go forward with our dialogue, seeking opportunities for engagement, building ties that are not only between governments but family, friends, entrepreneurs, students, scholars, artists, and so much else.正如奧巴馬總統在本周內所說,一個保護其所有公民權利的中國將是一個更強大和更繁榮的國家,當然也是一個代表我們共同目標的更強有力的合作伙伴。我們在北京這里舉行的對話反映出自從尼克松總統訪華后40年來美中關系已經取得的巨大進展。那時,我們幾乎沒有任何聯系可言;現在,我們共同工作。我認為,可以公平地說:中國和美國無法解決世界上的所有問題,但如果沒有我們之間的合作,就很難解決任何問題。所以我們正在努力推動我們之間的對話,尋求接觸與聯系的機會,這種聯系將不限于政府之間,而是包括家庭、朋友、企業家、學生、學者、藝術家和其他各類人士。
Tomorrow, I will attend the annual meeting of U.S.-China Consultation on People-to-People Exchanges, and we will discuss the progress we’re making, including for our 100000 Strong Education Initiative that will increase significantly the numbers and diversity of American students studying in China.明天,我將參加美中人文交流高層磋商年度會議。我們將討論我們取得的進展,其中包括“十萬人留學中國計劃”,該計劃將大幅度增加在中國留學的美國學生的人數與多樣性。So I wish to thank our hosts for their gracious hospitality once again, and pledge that we will continue to work together in a true spirit of partnership and mutual respect for the mutual benefit of our two nations.Thank you very much.(Applause.)
因此,我想再一次感謝我們的東道主的盛情款待,并承諾我們將繼續本著真正的伙伴合作精神與相互尊重原則共同努力,促進我們兩國的共同利益。多謝各位。(掌聲)。
第二篇:希拉里-中美戰略與經濟對話
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·克林頓國務卿在美中戰略與經濟對話全體會議上發表的講話
華盛頓哥倫比亞特區 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略與經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委員。我期待著繼續我2月訪華期間與戴秉國國務委員、胡錦濤主席和溫家寶總理進行的富有成果的討論,并在奧巴馬總統和胡錦濤主席倫敦會晤的基礎上取得更多成果。
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.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果又是一個開端。作為結果,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系,鄧小平發起了中國的經濟改革并實行對外開放。隨之而來的是中國經濟的蓬勃發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、全面的美中關系奠定基礎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.奧巴馬總統內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.因為在未來數十年內,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。正是這一現實——以及沒有任何國家能單獨應對今天面臨的挑戰這一事實——要求建立一個新的爭取進步的全球架構。
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系受到大國間權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,從經濟危機到防擴散,從氣候變化到清潔能源,從大規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.今天上午我們將會聽到總統闡明,奧巴馬政府致力于更廣泛的接觸——利用有力的外交和發展手段,同政府及非政府人士合作解決區域性和全球性問題。
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。驅車行駛在三環路上,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,如今奧林匹克場館和摩天商務大廈令人眼花繚亂。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發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的和平與穩定所發揮的作用。過去30年來,美國幫助建立該地區的安全,這對中國的增長至關重要,對我們自身的戰略利益也意義重大。未來,我們將繼續積極參與促進亞洲的安全。出現誤解或分歧時,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.本屆戰略與經濟對話在廣度、實質乃至方法上均不同于過去的對話。其形式結構力求全面,以便充分利用兩國政府內部的聰明才智,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系而奠定基礎,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,經濟復蘇。修復全球經濟是美中兩國的首要目標。我們已在國內采取果斷行動,以刺激經濟和穩定金融機構。中國已采取類似的大膽措施,而且我們雙方均認為,進一步的經濟和金融合作對全球復蘇是必要的。
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,我們必須向發達和發展中國家表明,清潔能源和經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備被用于產熱發電,與通常燃煤的火力發電相比,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電用的燃氣輪機。該廠在節省成本的基礎上提供了清潔能源,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。我剛剛出席了在泰國舉行的東盟會議,北韓政權最近的挑釁行動成了大會十分關注的議題。中國和美國均認識到緊張局勢升級以及東亞可能發生的軍備競賽所導致的危險以及大規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.中美兩國已經在進行合作,以遏制北韓方面的危險行動。我們感謝中國政府為設立六方會談所發揮的主導作用以及在應對北韓導彈發射問題上所進行的密切合作。
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注,并探討清除暴力極端主義、促進阿富汗和巴基斯坦穩定的方法。
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,發展。在奧巴馬總統領導下,發展同外交一樣,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、疾病以及經濟邊緣化等全球性災難,堅持問責制和法治,我們能夠為更多地區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生結果。我們的觀點并非全部一致,人權便是一例。美國將繼續恪守這樣的理念:所有人的權利都必須得到尊重。盡管如此,如果我們在利益一致的領域進行合作,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對當今的許多全球性挑戰。
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世紀的共同挑戰有必要找到共同立足點而言,我們能夠齊心協力。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出碩果。作為國務卿,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也是如此。
And now, it is my great honor to introduce Vice Premier Wang.現在,我非常榮幸地向大家介紹王副總理。

Speech at the Opening Ceremony of the Fourth China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogue
by President Hu Jintao
May 3, 2012
克林頓國務卿,蓋特納財長,各位來賓,女士們,先生們,朋友們:
Secretary Clinton,Secretary Timothy Geithner,Distinguished guests,Ladies and gentlemen,Dear friends,時隔兩年,中美戰略與經濟對話再次在北京舉行,中美雙方將共同探討新形勢下如何推動兩國關系向前發展。首先,我謹對第四輪中美戰略與經濟對話開幕,表示祝賀!對遠道而來的美國朋友們,表示歡迎!
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,我同奧巴馬總統在倫敦會晤時共同商定,建立中美戰略與經濟對話機制。3年多來,中美戰略與經濟對話作為兩國級別最高、參與部門最多、討論議題最廣的機制,促進了兩國高層戰略溝通,加深了對彼此戰略意圖和政策的了解,擴大了對中美關系發展方向的共識;有力推進了互利合作,增進了兩國人民相互了解和友誼;豐富了兩國各領域各層次交流溝通。
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.在本輪對話中,希望雙方再接再厲,共同努力,既立足當前,又著眼長遠,推動中美戰略與經濟對話成為兩國加強戰略溝通、增進戰略互信、促進戰略合作的長效機制,為建設中美合作伙伴關系不斷進行探索和實踐。
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.女士們、先生們!
Ladies and gentlemen,40年前,中美兩國老一輩領導人用“跨越太平洋的握手”開啟了中美關系的大門,開始探索不同社會制度、歷史文化、發展階段大國的相處之道。40年來,中美關系發展的廣度和深度,遠遠超過了當年人們的想象。
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,我對美國進行了國事訪問,同奧巴馬總統就共同建設相互尊重、互利共贏的合作伙伴關系達成重要共識。中美分別是當今世界最大的發展中國家和最大的發達國家,中美關系持續健康穩定向前發展,不僅能給兩國人民帶來實實在在的利益,而且將為促進世界和平、穩定、繁榮作出寶貴貢獻。
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.女士們、先生們!
Ladies and gentlemen,當今世界,經濟全球化深入發展,科技進步日新月異,機遇和挑戰并存。各國人民都期待21世紀成為人類歷史上第一個共享和平安寧、共同發展繁榮的世紀。人們認為,中美合作將給兩國和世界帶來巨大機遇,中美對抗將給兩國和世界帶來巨大損害。無論國際風云如何變幻,無論中美兩國國內情況如何發展,雙方都應該堅定推進合作伙伴關系建設,努力發展讓兩國人民放心、讓各國人民安心的新型大國關系。
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.發展中美新型大國關系,需要創新思維。40年前,中美發表《上海公報》是一個創舉,《上海公報》在肯定雙方共同點的同時,如實列出存在的分歧,確立了中美關系的基本指導原則。當前,人類已進入21世紀第二個十年。我們的思想、政策、行動應該與時俱進,以創新的思維、切實的行動,打破歷史上大國對抗沖突的傳統邏輯,探索經濟全球化時代發展大國關系的新路徑。
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.發展中美新型大國關系,需要相互信任。我們這個星球有足夠大的空間,應能容得下中美兩國和其他國家共同發展。改革開放30多年來,中國堅持和平發展,開創了一條依靠中國人民勤勞智慧、通過中國人民同各國人民合作共贏實現發展的正確道路。走和平發展道路,是我們始終不變的戰略選擇,是中國對全世界的鄭重承諾。
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.發展中美新型大國關系,需要平等互諒。中美兩國國情不同,不可能在所有問題上都意見一致。雙方必須學會相互尊重,善于抓住“同”,把共同利益的蛋糕做大;正確對待“異”,尊重和照顧彼此利益關切。對存在的分歧,應通過對話交流,增進理解,妥善處理,以免影響中美關系大局。
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.發展中美新型大國關系,需要積極行動。中國有句古話,為者常成,行者常至。我們要采取扎實有效的行動,把雙方達成的各項共識落到實處,推動廣泛領域務實合作,加強在國際和地區問題上的協調,促進亞太地區乃至世界和平穩定,讓兩國人民和各國人民切實享受中美合作帶來的好處。
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.發展中美新型大國關系,需要厚植友誼。國之交在于民相親。我們要積極推進兩國社會各界交流交往,讓更多人成為中美友好合作的參與者、支持者。我高興地得知,第三輪中美人文交流高層磋商將與第四輪中美戰略與經濟對話同時舉行,期待第三輪磋商進一步促進中美兩國人民相互了解和友誼。
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.女士們、先生們!
Ladies and gentlemen,我們所在的這個大廳叫芳菲苑。中國唐代詩人韓愈有兩句詩:“草木知春不久歸,百般紅紫斗芳菲。”意思是時不我待,必須奮發進取。中美關系正面臨進一步發展的機遇,同時也面臨新的挑戰。讓我們抓住機遇,排除干擾,共同努力,走出一條相互尊重、合作共贏的新型大國關系之路。
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.預祝第四輪中美戰略與經濟對話取得圓滿成功。
In conclusion, I wish the fourth round of the China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogues every success!
第四篇:希拉里在中美戰略與經濟對話開幕式上的講話
5月24日,第二輪中美戰略與經濟對話在北京開幕,美國總統奧巴馬的特別代表、國務卿希拉里·克林頓出席開幕式并講話。以下是希拉里講話全文的中英文對照。
SECRETARY CLINTON: Good morning.I want to thank State Councilor Dai and Vice-Premier Wang for their very warm hospitality.It is a pleasure for our entire delegation to be here in Beijing.And it is an honor to join my colleague, Secretary Geithner, and the many officials from across our government in representing the United States at this second round of the strategic and economic dialogue.國務卿克林頓:早上好。感謝國務委員戴秉國和副總理王岐山非常熱情的接待。我國代表團的全體成員十分高興來到北京。我與我的同事蓋特納部長及我國政府各部門的眾多官員一起代表美國出席第二輪美中戰略與經濟對話,為此感到十分榮幸。
I first visited China in 1995, and I have been privileged to return since then.Every trip to China offers fresh insights and images of the dynamism of this country and its people, the pace of change, and the possibilities for the future.Back in 1995, trade between our two nations was measured in the tens of billions of dollars.Today it is counted in the hundreds of billions.Few people back then had cell phones, and almost no one had access to the Internet.Today China has the world's largest mobile phone network, and more Internet users than any other country on earth.我于1995年初次訪問中國,此后又很榮幸地多次前來訪問。每次來到中國都使我對這個國家,對中國人民旺盛的活力,對中國的變化之快及中國未來的發展前途產生新的了解和新的印象。早在1995年,我們兩國間的貿易額僅有數百億美元,如今兩國貿易額已達數千億美元。那時,極少有人擁有手機,幾乎沒有人使用因特網。今天,中國擁有全世界最大的移動電話網絡,使用因特網的人數高于全世界任何國家。
In 1995, both our countries signed on to the Beijing platform for action to advance equality and opportunity for women.And while there is still much to do in both of our countries, I know that Chinese women have made real progress in education, health care, and employment.Hundreds of millions of men, women, and children have been lifted out of poverty.And China has flourished in so many ways.Freer trade and open markets have created jobs in both our countries, and given Chinese consumers access to new goods and to higher standards of living.1995年,我們兩國政府簽署了北京行動綱領,要求采取行動促進婦女的平等權利與機會。雖然我們兩國仍有很多工作要做,但我知道中國婦女在教育、衛生保健和就業領域都取得了切實的進步。千百萬男女老少擺脫了貧困。中國在很多方面都獲得了蓬勃的發展。促進自由貿易和開放市場為我們兩國創造了就業崗位,并使中國消費者獲得新的商品和更高的生活水平。
The United States welcomes China's progress and its accomplishments.And by establishing patterns of cooperation, rather than competition between our two countries, we see the opportunity, as we have just heard from Vice-Premier Wang, for win-win solutions, rather than zero-sum rivalries, for we know that few global problems can be solved by the United States or China acting alone.And few can be solved without the United States and China working together.美國歡迎中國取得的進步和成就。通過建立兩國間的合作模式,而非相互競爭,我們看到了王副總理剛才所說的實現互利共贏的機會,而非互不相容的對抗,因為我們知道,全球性問題無法僅靠美國或者中國得到解決。但沒有美國和中國的共同參與,有關問題也不可能得到解決。
With this in mind, I would like to read a few lines of a letter from President Obama that I will be personally handing to President Hu Jintao.President Obama wrote: “Our relationship with China is guided by the recognition that we live in an inter-connected world.One country's success need not come at the expense of another.Our progress can be shared.Indeed, the United States welcomes China as a strong, prosperous, and successful member of the community of nations.” 考慮到這種情況,我在此宣讀我將親自向胡錦濤主席轉交的奧巴馬總統信中的幾句話。奧巴馬總統寫道:“我們生活在一個相互聯系的世界上,我們與中國的關系正是以這樣一種認識為指導。一個國家的成功不必以另一個國家的利益為代價。我們可以共享進步。美國真誠地歡迎中國成為國際大家庭中一個強大、繁榮和成功的成員。”
Over the past 16 months, we have worked together to lay the foundation for that positive, cooperative, and comprehensive relationship that President Obama and President Hu have committed our nations to pursuing.We launched the strategic and economic dialogue last year in Washington, as the premier convening mechanism in our relationship.And this year we have assembled an even broader and deeper team, here in China, to address our growing agenda.We have built avenues of cooperation and identified areas of mutual interest.奧巴馬總統和胡錦濤主席要求兩國建立積極、合作和全面的關系,過去16個月來我們共同努力,為雙方的關系奠定了基礎。去年,我們在華盛頓啟動了戰略與經濟對話,為兩國關系建立了主要的對話機制。今年,我們派出代表性更廣泛和更深入的團隊,前來中國討論日益增多的議程。我們構建了合作的平臺,確定了擁有共同利益的領域。
Our job, moving forward, is to translate that common interest into common action and, in turn, to translate that action into results that improve the lives of our people, and contribute to global progress.Over the long term, these results are how our relationship will be measured.著眼未來,我們的工作是把我們的共同利益轉變成共同行動,進而將這種行動轉化為改善兩國人民生活,促進全球進步的結果。從長遠來看,這些結果是衡量我們關系的標準。
We are conscious that meaningful progress against great global challenges is the work of years, not days.We know that this gathering, in and of itself, is a foundation for ongoing cooperation that has to take place every day at every level of our government.And so, we will blend urgency and persistence in pursuit of shared goals.我們認識到,應對全球性的挑戰取得有意義的進展需要經過多年的努力,并非指日可待。我們知道,這次會議本身為我們政府各級日常必須進行的持續合作奠定了基礎。因此,為了實現共同的目標,我們既需要有緊迫性又需要有持久性。We have already begun to see progress on some of the key areas of common concern that we laid out in our first dialogue last year.But there is much work to be done.我們已經開始看到,對于去年雙方第一輪對話期間確定的共同關心的問題,在主要領域的某些方面取得了進展。但還有許多工作需要做。
First, on international security challenges, the United States and China have consulted closely on the challenge posed by Iran's nuclear program.The prospect of a nuclear-armed Iran concerns us all.And to address that threat, together we have pursued a dual-track approach of engagement and pressure, aimed at encouraging Iran's leaders to change course.The draft resolution agreed to by all of our P-5+1 partners and circulated at the Security Council sends a clear message to the Iranian leadership: Live up to your obligation, or face growing isolation and consequences.As we continue to cooperate in New York, the burden is on Iran to demonstrate through its actions that it will uphold its responsibility.首先,對于國際安全方面的挑戰,美國和中國就伊朗核項目構成的挑戰進行了密切協商。伊朗擁有核武器的可能性受到我們大家的關注。為了消除這個威脅,我們共同采取了接觸與施壓的雙軌方式,目的是促使伊朗領導人改弦易轍。我們 “5常+1”的伙伴一致達成的決議草案已在安理會分發,此舉向伊朗的領導層發出了一個明確的信息:履行你的義務,否則將日益受孤立,面臨更嚴重的后果。我們在紐約繼續進行合作之際,伊朗有責任通過自己的行動表明將承擔本身的責任。
Now, beyond these pressing challenges there are other shared security concerns that I look forward to discussing, including the fight against violent extremism in Afghanistan and Pakistan, counter-piracy efforts, and deeper military-to-military cooperation.現在,除了這些緊迫的挑戰之外,我還期待著討論其它有關共同安全的問題,其中包括在阿富汗和巴基斯坦打擊暴力極端主義,以及打擊海盜的行動和更深入的軍方與軍方的合作。
Second, on climate and energy, we have built on the memorandum of understanding signed at the last round of the dialogues, collaborating on new, clean energy research, including a center.We have committed ourselves to an electrical vehicle initiative, and a renewable energy partnership, and more.At Copenhagen, for the first time, all major economies, including both the United States and China, made national commitments to curb carbon emissions and transparently report on their mitigation efforts.Now we must work to implement the Copenhagen accord with balanced commitments that are reflected in the ongoing negotiation.其次,在氣候和能源方面,我們在第一輪對話期間簽署備忘錄的基礎上繼續努力,為研究新的清潔能源進行合作,包括建設一個中心。我們已對電動汽車計劃、可再生能源伙伴關系等給予承諾。在哥本哈根,所有主要經濟體,包括美國和中國,第一次以國家的名義承諾限制二氧化碳排放并就各國緩解氣候變化的努力提供透明的報告。現在我們必須努力實施哥本哈根協定,堅持正在進行的談判所反映的實現整體平衡的承諾。
And on behalf of Secretary Steven Chu, I extend his regrets.He was unable to be with us, because he had to stay and work very urgently on the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.我代表朱棣文部長表達他的遺憾。他無法與我們一起出席會議,因為他需要留在墨西哥灣,完成有關石油泄漏的緊迫工作。
Third, on education, health, and development, tomorrow I will meet with State Councilor Lio to launch a new dialogue on educational and cultural exchanges that will deepen understanding and cooperation between our people.I am very pleased that Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius has joined us this year to expand cooperation on infectious diseases and other international health challenges.Our ambassador for global women's issues, Melanne Verveer, is also here because we recognize that the roles and rights of women are central to many of the issues we face, including devising a global strategy for development that is both sustainable and effective.第三,教育、衛生與發展問題。明天我將會晤劉國務委員,開始新的關于教育和文化交流的對話,加深兩國人民的相互理解和合作。我很高興衛生與公眾服務部部長凱瑟琳·西貝利厄斯今年加入我們的行列,為應對傳染病和國際衛生領域其它方面的挑戰擴大相互間的合作。我國全球婦女問題大使梅拉妮·弗維爾也在座,因為我們認識到,婦女的作用和權利對于解決我們面臨的許多問題都舉足輕重,其中包括制定可持續和切實有效的全球發展戰略。
The Obama Administration has worked to advance a long-term investment-driven approach to development.And Administrator Raj Shah is leading our efforts.We have elevated development as a core pillar of our foreign policy, and we seek to coordinate with China and other donors to meet country-led needs and to comply with internationally-agreed standards.對于發展問題,奧巴馬政府努力促進長期投資驅動的模式。拉吉夫沙赫署長負責主持這方面的工作。我們已經把發展提升為我國外交政策的一個核心支柱,我們正爭取與中國和其他捐助方進行協調,以滿足國家主導的需求,同時遵循國際公認的標準。
Finally, we have worked together and seen progress on promoting global economic recovery and growth.Secretary Geithner, Secretary Locke, Ambassador Kirk, Chairman Bernanke, and the rest of our economic team will be talking in greater depth about how we can develop a more balanced global economy that will produce prosperity that reaches further and deeper for both the Chinese and American people.最后,我們已為促進全球經濟復蘇和增長進行了共同努力并且已經看到了進展。蓋特納部長、駱家輝部長、柯克大使、伯南克主席以及我們經濟團隊的其他成員將就我們如何促進全球經濟的平衡進行更深入的討論,為美中兩國人民創造進一步的更大繁榮。
Now, our discussions in these few days are unlikely to solve the shared challenges we face.But they can and should provide a framework for delivering real results to our people.We will not agree on every issue.But we will discuss them openly, as between friends and partners.And that includes America's commitment to universal human rights and dignity, and so much else that is on both Chinese and American minds.當然,我們短短幾天進行的討論不可能解決我們共同面臨的挑戰,但我們能夠而且應該提供一個有利于為兩國人民帶來實惠的框架。我們不可能在每一問題上達成一致,但我們能夠像朋友和伙伴一樣坦率地討論這些問題,其中包括美國對普遍人權和尊嚴的承諾,以及中方和美方關心的許許多多其它問題。There is a Chinese proverb that speaks of treading different paths that lead to the same destination.Our two nations have unique histories.China is home to an ancient civilization, as I saw in the Chinese Pavilion when I visited, with the scroll that has been made to come alive, showing life in this city 1,000 years ago.America is a young nation.But we know that our future, both our challenges and our opportunities, will be shared.We have traveled different paths, but that shared future is our common destination and responsibility.And, ultimately, that is what this dialogue is about.中國有個成語,殊途同歸。我們兩國都有著獨特的歷史。中國是古代文明的發祥地之一。我在上海參觀中國館時看到的圖像栩栩如生地展示了一千年以前的城市生活場景。美國是一個年輕的國家,但我們都知道,我們的未來,包括我們的挑戰和機遇,都將是共同的。我們行進在不同的道路上,但共有的未來是我們共同的目的地和責任所在,歸根結底也是這場對話的目的。
So, again, let me thank State Councilor Dai and Vice-Premier Wang, and I look forward to our discussions in an open and candid exchange of views.Thank you very much.因此,我再次感謝戴國務委員和王副總理。我期待著我們通過公開、坦率的討論交換意見。非常感謝諸位。

——在第二輪中美戰略與經濟對話開幕式上的致辭

Endeavor to Build a Positive, Cooperative and Comprehensive China-US Relationship for the 21st Century
--Address at the Opening Session of the Second Round of the China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogues
by H.E.Hu Jintao, President of the People's Republic of China
Beijing, 24 May 2010
克林頓國務卿,蓋特納財長,各位來賓,女士們,先生們,朋友們:
Secretary Clinton,Secretary Geithner,Distinguished Guests,Ladies and Gentlemen,Dear Friends,第二輪中美戰略與經濟對話今天在北京開幕。首先,我謹對遠道而來的美國朋友,表示熱烈的歡迎!
The second round of the China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogues(S&ED)opens in Beijing today.Let me first of all extend a warm welcome to our American friends coming from afar.本輪對話是在國際政治經濟形勢出現新變化、中美關系發展面臨新機遇的重要時刻舉行的。推動本輪對話取得積極成果,對我們兩國都具有重要意義。希望雙方圍繞共同關心的全局性、戰略性、長期性問題坦誠交流、深入溝通、增信釋疑,推進合作。
The second round of the S&ED takes places at an important moment when new developments are unfolding in the international political and economic landscape and when China and the United States face new opportunities to further the bilateral relationship.It is of great significance for both of our two countries to achieve positive outcomes at this round of dialogues.I hope that through candid and in-depth discussions on overarching, strategic and long-term issues of mutual interest, the two sides will enhance trust and dispel misgivings, and further push forward China-US cooperation.女士們、先生們!
Ladies and Gentlemen,一年多以前,我同奧巴馬總統在倫敦首次會晤,我們一致同意,共同努力建設21世紀積極合作全面的中美關系,為新時期中美關系的發展確立了目標。這以后,我同奧巴馬總統多次會晤,特別是去年11月,奧巴馬總統成功訪華,雙方發表《中美聯合聲明》,為中美關系發展提供了政策框架。中美本著同舟共濟精神,合作應對歷史罕見的國際金融危機,進行相關宏觀經濟政策協調,推動二十國集團領導人金融峰會取得積極成果,為推動世界經濟復蘇作出重要貢獻。中美推動雙邊經貿關系向前發展,加強新能源、清潔能源、節能減排、提高能效等領域互利合作,夯實交流合作基礎。中美就重大國際和地區問題保持溝通和協調,同各方一道推動妥善解決地區熱點問題。中美同各方一道應對日益增多的全球性問題,為國際社會應對氣候變化、大規模殺傷性武器擴散、重大自然災害等挑戰發揮了積極作用。
Over one year ago, President Obama and I met for the first time in London.We agreed to work together to build a positive, cooperative and comprehensive China-US relationship for the 21st century, setting up the goal for the development of China-US relations in the new era.Since then, President Obama and I have met on many occasions.During President Obama's successful visit to China last November in particular, the two sides issued the China-US Joint Statement, offering a policy framework for the development of our bilateral ties.In a spirit of solidarity, China and the United States have worked together to counter the extremely severe international financial crisis.We have coordinated macroeconomic policies and facilitated efforts to bring about positive outcomes at the G20 financial summits, making important contribution to world economic recovery.We have furthered our economic and trade ties and stepped up mutually beneficial cooperation in new and clean energy, energy conservation, emissions reduction and energy efficiency enhancement to solidify the foundation of our exchanges.China and the United States have maintained communication and coordination on major regional and international issues.We have worked with other parties to properly address regional hot-spot issues.The two countries have worked with other parties to manage a growing number of global issues and played a positive role in putting up an international response to such challenges as climate change, proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and natural disasters.毋庸置疑,中美國情不同,雙方難免存在一些矛盾和分歧,關鍵是要尊重和照顧對方的核心利益和重大關切,妥善處理相互之間存在的一些敏感問題,不斷增強互信基礎。
Admittedly, China and the United States differ in national conditions, and it is only natural that the two sides may disagree on some issues.What is important is to respect and accommodate each other's core interests and major concerns, appropriately handle the sensitive issues and strengthen the foundation of mutual trust.女士們、先生們!
Ladies and Gentlemen,當今世界正處在大發展大變革大調整時期。世界多極化和經濟全球化深入發展,國際金融危機影響繼續顯現,全球性問題突出,國際和地區熱點問題此起彼伏。繼續推進人類和平與發展的崇高事業,需要世界各國人民加強合作。中美作為聯合國安理會常任理事國,分別作為世界上最大的發展中國家和最大的發達國家,無論是在推動世界經濟全面復蘇和可持續增長方面,還是在處理地區熱點、應對全球性挑戰、維護世界和平與安全方面,都面臨著共同課題、肩負著重要責任。中國高度重視發展對美關系,發展長期健康穩定的中美關系,符合兩國人民共同意愿、順應時代發展潮流,也有利于亞太地區乃至世界和平、穩定、繁榮。The world is in the midst of major developments, major changes and major adjustments.The trend toward a multi-polar world and economic globalization is gathering momentum, the impact of the international financial crisis continues to be felt, global issues are becoming more pronounced, and regional and international hot-spot issues keep cropping up.To further advance mankind's noble cause of peace and development requires greater cooperation among people of all countries.As permanent members of the UN Security Council and the largest developing country and the largest developed country, China and the United States face common tasks and shoulder important responsibilities ranging from promoting full recovery and sustainable growth of the world economy to managing regional hot-spots, meeting global challenges and safeguarding world peace and security.China attaches great importance to its relations with the United States.To develop a long-term, sound and steady China-US relationship is a shared desire of our two peoples, accords with the trend of our times and contributes to peace, stability and prosperity in the Asia Pacific region and beyond.——我們要堅持中美關系的正確方向。無論國際風云如何變幻,無論遇到什么困難、遇到什么干擾,我們都要從戰略高度和長遠角度出發,牢牢把握和精心維護共同努力建設21世紀積極合作全面的中美關系這一目標,培育戰略互信,加強戰略合作,妥善處理分歧,促進兩國在雙邊、地區、全球層面的溝通、協調、合作。
– We need to stick to the right direction of China-US relations.No matter how the international situation may evolve and what difficulties and interferences we may encounter, we should always follow a strategic and long-term perspective and stick to and safeguard the goal of working together to build a positive, cooperative and comprehensive China-US relationship for the 21st century.We should foster strategic mutual trust, strengthen strategic cooperation, appropriately handle differences and step up communication, coordination and cooperation on bilateral, regional and global issues.——我們要尊重彼此核心利益和重大關切。主權獨立和領土完整是國際關系基本準則賦予一國的最基本權利。對中國人民而言,沒有什么比維護國家主權和領土完整更為重要。相信經歷過南北戰爭的美國人民,不難理解統一對一個國家多么重要和珍貴。
– We should respect each other's core interests and major concerns.Sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity are a country's most basic rights recognized by the norms governing international relations.To the Chinese people, nothing is more important than safeguarding national sovereignty and territorial integrity.I trust it is not difficult for the American people, who went through the American Civil War in their history, to understand how important and valuable unity is to a nation.——我們要尊重各國自主選擇發展道路的權利。應該承認各國文化傳統、社會制度、價值觀念、發展理念等方面的差異,努力推動不同文明和發展模式取長補短、相互促進、共同發展,不應該以一種模式來衡量豐富多彩的世界。
– We should respect the right of each and every country to independently choose its development path.We should recognize differences in countries' cultural traditions, social systems, values and development concepts, and encourage different civilizations and development models to learn from and reinforce one another so as to achieve common development.It is not advisable to use one model to measure the diverse and colorful world we live in.——我們要保持兩國高層及各級別密切往來。充分溝通是促進合作的重要基礎。再先進的通信技術也取代不了面對面交流。今年4月12日我同奧巴馬總統在華盛頓會晤時,我們一致同意通過會晤、通話、通信等方式保持密切聯系。我們也應該加強戰略性對話和磋商,以加深了解、擴大共識、促進合作。
– We should maintain close interactions at the top and other levels.Full communication is an important basis for enhanced cooperation.Not even the most sophisticated telecommunication technology can replace face-to-face exchanges.In my meeting with President Obama in Washington on 12 April this year, we both agreed to stay in close touch through meetings, phone calls and correspondence.We should also step up strategic dialogues and consultations to deepen understanding, expand common ground and promote cooperation.——我們要發展互利雙贏的合作格局。中美應該加強宏觀經濟政策協調,推動世界經濟持續復蘇。中美應該加強經貿、能源、環境、反恐、防擴散、執法、科技、教育、農業、衛生、質檢等方面交流合作,積極拓展民用航空、高速鐵路、基礎設施建設、空間探索等新的合作領域,不斷為中美關系發展注入新動力,讓兩國人民切身體會到中美合作成果。
– We should develop a pattern of mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation.China and the United States should step up macroeconomic policy coordination and promote sustained world economic recovery.The two sides should increase exchanges and cooperation in such areas as economy and trade, energy, the environment, counter-terrorism, non-proliferation, law enforcement, science and technology, education, agriculture, health and quality inspection, and actively develop cooperation in such new areas as civil aviation, high-speed railway, infrastructure construction and space exploration.In this way, we will lend fresh impetus to the growth of China-US relations and enable our peoples to reap tangible benefits from China-US cooperation.——我們要加強地區熱點和全球性問題上的協調。中美應該通過雙邊渠道和各種多邊機制加強在地區熱點問題上的溝通和協調,推進在氣候變化、核安全、能源安全、糧食安全、減災防災、打擊跨國犯罪、防治重大傳染病等全球性問題上的磋商和合作。中美應該同國際社會一道,推動國際體系朝著更加公正合理的方向發展。
– We should strengthen coordination on regional hot-spot and global issues.China and the United States should step up communication and coordination on regional hot-spot issues through bilateral channels and multilateral mechanisms.The two sides should increase consultations and cooperation on such global issues as climate change, nuclear security, energy security, food security, disaster reduction and preparedness, fighting trans-national crimes, and prevention and control of serious communicable diseases.China and the United States should work with the rest of the international community to make the international system more just and equitable.——我們要深化兩國人民相互了解和友誼。人民的相互了解和友誼是國與國關系發展的永恒動力和廣泛基礎。中美將建立人文交流機制,相信這一機制將為促進兩國文化、科技、教育等領域交流合作發揮積極作用。雙方應該支持兩國青年交往,為中美關系發展培養后備力量。雙方應該加強兩國工商、學術、媒體等各界以及地方交流合作,在兩國人民之間架起寬廣的友誼橋梁。
– We should deepen mutual understanding and friendship between our peoples.This provides an enduring driving force and broad foundation for the growth of state-to-state relations.China and the United States will establish a mechanism of people-to-people exchange.I believe this mechanism will contribute to the cultural, scientific, technological and educational exchanges and cooperation between our two countries.The two sides should support youth exchanges so that the cause of China-US relations will be carried forward by the younger generation.We should also scale up exchanges and cooperation between the business, academic and media communities and between local authorities and institutions to build a broad bridge of friendship between our two peoples.女士們、先生們!
Ladies and Gentlemen,中華人民共和國成立60多年來特別是改革開放以來,中國的面貌發生了舉世矚目的變化。同時,我們也清醒地認識到,中國仍然是世界上最大的發展中國家,要全面建成惠及十幾億人口的更高水平的小康社會,進而基本實現現代化、實現全體人民共同富裕,還有很長的路要走。中國將繼續堅持改革開放,努力使經濟更加發展、民主更加健全、科教更加進步、文化更加繁榮、社會更加和諧、人民生活更加殷實。中國將繼續奉行互利共贏的開放戰略,按照通行的國際經貿規則擴大市場準入,支持完善國際貿易和金融體制、推進貿易和投資自由化便利化。中國將加快經濟發展方式轉變,著力擴大國內需求、增加居民消費,積極推動對外貿易健康平衡發展,反對各種形式的保護主義。中國將繼續按照主動性、可控性、漸進性原則,穩步推進人民幣匯率形成機制改革。中國將繼續走和平發展道路,在和平共處五項原則的基礎上同所有國家發展友好合作,不干涉別國內部事務,不把自己的意志強加于人,同世界各國一道努力,推動建設持久和平,共同繁榮的和諧世界。
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China over 60 years ago and particularly since reform and opening up, earthshaking changes have taken place in China.Yet we are keenly aware that China remains the world's largest developing country.We still have a very long way to go before we can fully build a moderately prosperous society of a higher level that will benefit over one billion people and achieve basic modernization and bring common prosperity to all our people.We will continue to pursue reform and opening up so that our economy will register greater growth, our democracy will be further enhanced, our science and education will make bigger strides, our culture will get more prosperous, our society will become more harmonious and our people's life will be better-off.China will continue to pursue a win-win strategy of opening up.We will expand market access in keeping with established international economic and trading rules, support the improvement of international trading and financial systems and advance trade and investment liberalization and facilitation.China will accelerate the transformation of its economic development pattern.We will make great effort to expand domestic demand and increase household consumption, vigorously promote sound and balanced growth of external trade, and reject protectionism in all manifestations.China will continue to steadily advance the reform of the formation mechanism of the RMB exchange rate under the principle of independent decision-making, controllability and gradual progress.China will remain committed to the path of peaceful development and pursue friendly cooperation with all countries on the basis of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence.We will not interfere in other countries' internal affairs or impose our own will on others.We will work with all other countries to build a harmonious world of enduring peace and common prosperity.女士們、先生們!
