中国主张不冲突不对抗，友好协商、和平处理矛盾分歧。自20世纪60年代以来，中国通过谈判协商与14个陆地邻国中的12个解决了约20000公里陆地边界问题，这充分显示了中国睦邻友好的诚意和互利共赢的决心，为维护亚洲乃至世界稳定作出了实实在在的贡献。日前，菲律宾南海仲裁案仲裁庭公布所谓裁决，企图否定中国在南海的领土主权和海洋权益。应菲律宾阿基诺三世政府单方面请求建立的仲裁庭缺乏合法基础，自始至终违法操作，任意扩权、越权、滥权，所作裁决是非法的、无效的。中国政府不接受、不参与仲裁案，更不会承认和执行所谓裁决。中国将继续遵循《联合国宪章》及其所确认的国际关系基本准则，坚持与直接有关当事国，在尊重历史事实的基础上，根据国际法，通过谈判协商和平解决南海有关争议。中国愿继续同东盟国家一道努力，将南海建设成为和平之海、友谊之海、合作之海。
China stands for no confrontation, no conflict, friendly consultation and peaceful resolution in addressing tensions and disagreements. Since the 1960s, China has, through negotiation and consultation, delimited 20,000 kilometers of land boundary with 12 out of its 14 neighbors on land. This fully demonstrates China’s sincerity for good-neighborliness and commitment to mutual benefit and marked a concrete contribution to stability in Asia and beyond.
Recently, the arbitral tribunal on the South China Sea arbitration case brought by the Philippines issued its so-called final award, trying to negate China’s territorial sovereignty and maritime entitlements in the South China Sea. The arbitral tribunal established at the unilateral request of the Aquino III government lacks legitimacy. Its conduct has been unlawful from the very beginning as it willfully expanded, overstepped and abused its mandate. Its so-called award is thus null and void. The Chinese government did not accept or participate in the arbitration case, still less would we recognize or enforce the so-called award. China will continue to observe the UN Charter and the basic norms governing international relations enshrined therein, and stay committed to peacefully settling relevant disputes in the South China Sea through negotiation and consultation with countries directly concerned on the basis of respecting historical facts and in accordance with international law. China will continue to work with ASEAN countries to make the South China Sea a sea of peace, friendship and cooperation.
中国积极推进与各国人文交流，促进文明互鉴、和谐共生。多年来，中国积极发展与各国的友好交往，目前同美、俄、英、法、欧盟、印尼等多个国家或国际地区组织建立了高级别人文交流机制。作为中国对外人文交流的亲历者、推动者，我深深感到，文明交流和思想沟通，有如涓涓细流，润物无声，能够为国际关系发展和谋求共同安全环境提供源源不断的动力。2014年非洲爆发埃博拉疫情，我们快速反应，开展了新中国成立以来最大规模的卫生援外行动，援助资金和物资7.5亿元人民币，累计派出 1000多名医疗卫生人员，与西非人民守望相助、共克时艰，与各国密切互动、携手合作，奏响了全球卫生合作的时代和音，展现了人文交流的巨大能量和无穷魅力!总之，中国永远是世界和平的建设者，是全球发展的贡献者，是公正合理国际秩序的维护者，愿为世界持久和平和繁荣发展作出不懈努力和更大贡献。
China is actively advancing people-to-people exchanges with other countries to promote mutual learning and harmonious co-existence among civilizations. China has long been committed to promoting friendly exchanges with all countries and has established high-level[tu1] people-to-people exchange mechanisms with countries and international and regional organizations including the US, Russia, the UK, France, the EU and Indonesia. As a participant and facilitator of these exchanges, I feel keenly that exchanges among civilizations and the sharing of thoughts and ideas have a subtle but powerful influence that can provide strong momentum for the growth of international relations and pursuit of common security.
When the Ebola outbreak hit Africa in 2014, we responded swiftly and carried out the largest ever overseas health assistance since the founding of New China. Altogether, we provided RMB750 million in funds and materials and sent more than 1,000 health workers to Africa. In the face of difficulties, we extended a helping hand to the people in West Africa and worked closely with other countries. This success story in global health cooperation also showcased the great power of people-to-people exchanges. All in all, China will always be a contributor to world peace, facilitator of global development and proponent of a just and reasonable international order. We stand ready to make unremitting efforts and greater contribution to lasting peace and prosperity of the world.
