习近平在中法企业家委员会第六次会议闭幕式上的致辞（全文）

China Daily  

继往开来，携手开创中法合作新时代 ——在中法企业家委员会第六次会议闭幕式上的致辞 （2024年5月6日，巴黎） 中华人民共和国主席 习近平 尊敬的马克龙总统， 各位中法企业家代表， 女士们，先生们，朋友们： 时隔一年，很高兴和马克龙总统再次共同出席中法企业家委员会会议，同两国工商界的新老朋友们见面。这是我时隔5年再次来到巴黎。首先，我向双方参会代表致以诚挚问候！祝贺中法企业家委员会第六次会议取得圆满成功！ 今年是中法建交60周年。60年，在中国传统历法中是一个甲子的轮回，寓意着承前启后、继往开来。 60年来，中法是真诚的朋友。两国秉持独立自主、相互理解、高瞻远瞩、互利共赢的建交精神，携手走过了一段非凡历程，建立了紧密持久的全面战略伙伴关系，中法关系始终站在中国同西方国家关系的前列，成为不同文明、不同制度、不同发展水平的国家相互成就、共同前进的典范。中法两国友谊既是中法人民之福，也是世界人民之幸。 60年来，中法是共赢的伙伴。双边贸易和投资从少到多。双边贸易额比建交之初增长了近800倍，达到789亿美元，双向投资额累计已超过260亿美元，2000多家法国企业深耕中国市场，中国已经成为法国在欧盟外的第一大贸易伙伴，法国是中国在欧盟的主要贸易伙伴。大亚湾核电站、空客天津A320总装线等一批有代表性的项目成为两国互利合作的典范。两国还积极探讨拓展绿色低碳、数字经济、跨境电子商务等新兴领域合作。经过60年发展，中法两国经济已经形成你中有我、我中有你的强大共生关系。 女士们、先生们、朋友们！ 中法两国同属亚欧大陆，一个在东端，一个在西端；一个是东方文明的重要代表，一个是西方文明的重要代表。中法两国没有地缘政治矛盾，没有根本利益冲突，有着独立自主的精神共鸣，有着灿烂文化的彼此吸引，更有着利益广泛的务实合作。有历史可鉴，有现实可依，中法两国没有理由不发展好双边关系。站在人类发展新的十字路口，面对世界百年变局的风云际会，中方愿同法方密切全方位交流合作，推动中法关系迈上更高水平，取得更大成绩。 ——面向未来，我们愿同法方一道充实中法全面战略伙伴关系的经贸内涵。法国是最早参与中国改革开放进程的国家之一，为中国现代化建设作出了贡献并从中受益。深化友谊就要经常来往、加强合作。我们始终视法国为优先和可信赖的合作伙伴，致力于拓展双边经贸关系的广度和深度，开辟新领域、创造新模式、培育新增长点。中方愿继续积极利用“从法国农场到中国餐桌”全链条快速协同机制，让奶酪、火腿、葡萄酒等更多法国优质农产品出现在中国老百姓餐桌上。中方决定，将对法国等12国公民短期来华的免签政策延长至2025年年底，这将有利于促进两国人员往来。 ——面向未来，我们愿和法方共同推动中欧互利合作。中欧是推动多极化的两大力量、支持全球化的两大市场、倡导多样性的两大文明，中欧关系关乎世界和平、稳定、繁荣。双方要坚持全面战略伙伴关系正确定位，不断增强政治互信，排除各种干扰，共同反对经贸问题政治化、意识形态化、泛安全化。期待欧方同中方相向而行，以对话增进理解，以合作化解分歧，以互信消除风险，将中欧打造成为彼此经贸合作的关键伙伴、科技合作的优先伙伴、产业链供应链合作的可信伙伴。中方将自主扩大电信、医疗等服务业对外开放，进一步开放市场，为包括法国和欧洲企业在内的各国企业创造更多市场机遇。 ——面向未来，我们愿同法方携手应对全球性挑战。当今世界和平赤字、发展赤字、安全赤字、治理赤字有增无减。中法同为独立自主大国和联合国安理会常任理事国，理应担负责任和使命，以中法关系稳定性应对世界不确定性，加强在联合国的协调，为全球治理提供更多引领和支持，促进平等有序的世界多极化。中法要践行真正的多边主义，全面深入推动世界贸易组织改革，维护以世界贸易组织为核心的多边贸易体制权威性和有效性，推动建设开放型世界经济，促进普惠包容的经济全球化。中法应该推动国际社会形成合力，坚持《联合国气候变化框架公约》及其《巴黎协定》确定的目标和原则框架，积极应对气候变化，推进生物多样性保护全球进程，共同保护我们的地球家园。 女士们、先生们、朋友们！ 改革开放是当代中国最显著的特征、最壮丽的气象。当前，中国正以高水平开放促进深层次改革、推动高质量发展，改造提升传统产业，培育壮大新兴产业，布局建设未来产业，加快发展新质生产力。我们正在谋划和实施进一步全面深化改革重大举措，稳步扩大制度型开放，进一步扩大市场准入，缩减外商投资准入负面清单，这将为包括法国在内的世界各国提供更广阔的市场空间，带来更多合作共赢的机遇。欢迎在座的法国企业家积极参与中国式现代化进程，分享中国发展的机遇。 女士们、先生们、朋友们！ 再过两个多月，美丽的塞纳河畔将迎来盛大的巴黎奥运会。奥运会是团结和友谊的象征，是文明互鉴的结晶。让我们坚守建交初心，赓续传统友谊，践行“更快、更高、更强——更团结”的奥运格言，携手开创中法合作新时代，共同谱写人类命运共同体新篇章！ 谢谢大家！ 本文相关阅读：Full text of Xi's speech at the closing ceremony of the Sixth Meeting of the China-France Business Council https://www.chinadaily.com.cn/a/202405/07/WS66394cf8a31082fc043c5887.html

和评理 |涉台军援违背美方承诺 干涉中国内政危害地区安全

China Daily  

当地时间4月20日，美国众议院投票通过950亿美元的对外援助法案，包括向乌克兰提供约610亿美元的援助、向以色列提供超260亿美元的援助，以及 “2024年印太安全补充拨款法案”。 有关乌克兰和以色列的军事援助计划吸引了全世界的目光，但“2024年印太安全补充拨款法案”也颇为值得关注。 所谓的“印太安全”补充拨款法案包括 81亿美元用于对抗北京在“印太”地区的“行动”，33亿美元用于发展潜艇基础设施，20 亿美元用于为台湾和其他主要盟友提供军事资助，19亿美元用于补充台湾和地区“伙伴”的防务项目和服务。 美国众议院议长约翰逊在援助法案通过后不久发表讲话，毫不掩饰地声称中国是美国的三大 “对手”之一。 然而，军援法案的涉华内容和约翰逊言论都严重违反了拜登政府就中美关系发表的一系列声明，并有可能破坏正在为修复中美关系所做的努力。 在4月2日的通话中，美国总统拜登向中国领导人重申，美方不寻求进行“新冷战”，不寻求改变中国体制，不寻求通过强化同盟关系反对中国，不支持“台独”，无意同中国发生冲突。 拜登还强调，中国发展有利于世界，美国不寻求遏制中国发展，不寻求同中国“脱钩”。 根据双方共识，美国财政部长耶伦4月初访华，美国国务卿布林肯也即将访华。双方将加强对话沟通，避免误判，推进合作，推动两国关系稳定发展，共同应对全球性挑战。 然而，在“台独”分裂势力盛赞美方军援体现“坚如磐石”的承诺的情况下，美方有责任解释涉台军援是否符合拜登所言的“不支持‘台独’”，是否在“以负责任的方式”处理与中国的分歧。 如果法案在美国参议院获得通过，并由拜登总统签署成为法律，美国领导人不断重申的涉华表态几乎都将成为空谈，中美关系将遭受沉重打击。 美方应该认识到，台湾问题事关中国主权和领土完整，事关中国核心利益，华盛顿任何轻举妄动都将导致灾难性的后果。 美国众议院议长约翰逊在就援助计划发表讲话时表示：“我们宁愿把子弹送到海外的冲突中，也不愿把我们自己的孩子或军队送到海外”。这句直白的话语或许能够提醒受援方，美国军援不过是为了让他人替美国人流血而已。 本文译自《中国日报》4月22日社论 原文标题：Aid bills' intention to contain China belies US' commitment to repairing bilateral ties 出品：中国日报社论编辑室 中国日报中文网 【责任编辑：王辉】
