5月11日,中美網絡空間國際規(guī)則高級別專家組首次會議在華盛頓成功舉行。這既是雙方落實習近平主席去年9月訪美期間達成的網絡安全重要共識的堅實一步,也是雙方共同推進網絡空間全球治理的重要步驟。 | Today, the US and China are to launch, in Washington DC, their inaugural meeting of the Senior Experts Group on International Norms in Cyberspace. This represents not only an earnest effort by the two countries to implement the important cyber-security consensus they reached during President Xi Jinping's state visit to the United States last September, but also an extraordinary move by the two countries to work together for better global governance in cyberspace. |
中美在網絡空間擁有共同利益 | The US and China's shared interests |
中美同為世界上兩個最大的經濟體,也是信息技術飛速發(fā)展的最大受益者,在合作推進網絡空間全球治理方面有著廣泛的共同利益。 | As the two biggest economies and beneficiaries of the rapid development of information and communications technologies (ICTs), the US and China have broad and abundant shared interests in global cyberspace governance through intensified cooperation. |
當今世界,網絡和現實緊密聯結。以互聯網為代表的信息技術帶來生產力又一次質的飛躍,引領社會生產新變革。特別是人工智能、物聯網和3D打印等技術創(chuàng)新和變革,驅動了全球經濟增長。 | The world today, whether online or offline, is a network of both visual and physical reality. The ICTs have brought a qualitative leap in productivity, and empowered innovation, especially in artificial intelligence, IOT and three-dimensional printing, which serves as a new driver for global economy. |
中美都是網絡大國,數字經濟在各自國內生產總值占比不斷攀升。同時,兩國在網絡空間你中有我、我中有你,形成不可分割的利益共同體。 | The digital economy is taking up an increasingly large share of GDP in both the US and China, two of the world’s key players in cyberspace. In the meantime, the two countries have evolved towards a community of shared interests with each having a stake in the other. |
中國有近7億網民,有6萬多家信息技術企業(yè),其中阿里巴巴、騰訊等在美上市的中國信息技術企業(yè)近50家,總市值近5000億美元。美國也分享了中國數字經濟成長的紅利。美國有2500多家信息技術企業(yè)在華投資,幾乎所有美國知名信息技術企業(yè)都在華享有巨額收益,高通公司一半利潤來自中國,蘋果設備新增用戶一半來自中國。 | China, for its part, has 700 million Internet users and 60,000 IT companies, among which 50 have been listed in the US, including big names like Alibaba and Tencent, with a total market cap of over 500 billion US dollars. Meanwhile, there are over 2500 IT companies from the US with investments in China generating higher returns. Qualcom, for instance, earned half of its profits in China, whereas Apple finds 50% of its new users in China. |
中美兩國信息技術企業(yè)在為各自經濟作出貢獻的同時,也不斷促進兩國合作深入發(fā)展。網絡經濟和技術合作本身,已成為中美合作的“藍?!薄?/td> | While contributing to their respective economies, the IT companies in both countries are also helping to deepen their bilateral cooperation. The digital and technical cooperation is, in effect, part and parcel of their bilateral cooperation. |
當前,中美在此領域的合作更為重要、更為必要。中國經濟發(fā)展進入新常態(tài),需要新的驅動力,互聯網可大有作為。中國正在大力實施網絡強國戰(zhàn)略、國家大數據戰(zhàn)略和“互聯網+”行動計劃,互聯網和實體經濟深度融合發(fā)展,推動轉換經濟發(fā)展方式、調整經濟結構。 | Today, the cooperation between the two countries on this front has become even more relevant and imperative. China is calling for new drivers of growth, as its economy has entered a new normal. Internet, in this context, has a greater role to play. China is intensifying its efforts to shift its economic development model and adjust its economic structure through vigorous implementation of, inter alia, its national strategy for development based on growing the Internet sector, national big-data strategy, the "Internet Plus" action plan as well as its programs for in-depth integration of digital and real economies. |
同樣,美國經濟復蘇和競爭力提升,也需要大力發(fā)展數字經濟,并強化中美數字合作。過去30年,美國數字產業(yè)增長速度是傳統(tǒng)產業(yè)的5倍。2015年美國數字經濟總產值已占國內生產總值的4.7%,成為美國最具活力和增長率的領域之一。 | Likewise, in the case of the US, much hinges on a robust digital economy and its intensified cooperation with China, if it is to have a sound economic recovery and greater competitiveness. Over the past 30 years, the growth rate of its digital economy is five times that of the traditional industry. Digital economy accounted for 4.7% of its GDP in 2015, which has become one of the most dynamic sector in the US. |
中美在此領域的合作符合兩國的共同利益,同時有助于促進全球網絡空間可持續(xù)發(fā)展,全方位推動人類社會進步。 | It is thus axiomatic that the cooperation between the two countries are in line with their common interests. Such cooperation, in the meantime, also contributes to the sustainable development of global cyberspace and the advancement of human society. |
中美在網絡空間面臨共同挑戰(zhàn) | The US and China's common challenges |
互聯網為全球經濟社會發(fā)展帶來巨大數字機遇和紅利,同時也帶來前所未有的挑戰(zhàn)。從世界范圍看,網絡安全威脅和風險日益突出,并日益向政治、經濟、文化、社會、國防等領域傳導滲透。中美面臨許多共同的挑戰(zhàn),特別是: | The Internet has brought digital opportunities and dividends, but unprecedented challenges as well, in global socio-economic development. The online challenges of threats and risks are increasingly prominent, and in the meantime, they have also begun to make their way to the political, economic, cultural, social and defense domains of the society. The US and China are confronted, especially, with the following common challenges: |
——網絡侵害個人隱私和侵犯知識產權時有發(fā)生,網絡攻擊和網絡犯罪大幅增長。這損害各國人民權益、國家經濟利益和社會創(chuàng)新發(fā)展。中國網站平均每天遭受近400次大規(guī)模網絡攻擊,特別是源自境外的網絡攻擊數量持續(xù)快速攀升。美國也遭受大量網絡入侵,其中既有網絡犯罪,也有網絡間諜。 | - Frequent infringements of individual privacy and cyber-enabled theft of intellectual property rights as well as mounting cyber attacks and crimes. These malicious activities have put into jeopardy the legitimate rights of the general public, the economic interests of countries and the innovative capacity of society. China's websites suffer from an average of nearly 400 large-scale cyber attacks on a daily basis, and the attacks from abroad continue to rise rapidly. The US, for its part, also faced a wide array of cyber intrusions, ranging from criminal activity to cyber espionage. |
——網絡恐怖主義成為全球公害,危害各國社會公共安全并造成重大傷害。恐怖主義與互聯網結合,是當前暴力恐怖活動主要源頭?!耙了固m國”、“東突”等恐怖勢力將恐怖網絡音視頻作為傳播極端思想、傳授恐怖襲擊手段的重要工具,并通過網絡組織、策劃、實施恐怖襲擊。 | - Cyber terrorism, a global public menace, poses a threat to social and public security. Terrorism, coupled with the Internet, has now been evident as the main source of violent and terrorist activities. The IS, East Turkistan and other terrorist groups take online audio and video as an important tool for dissemination of extremist ideology and terrorist tactics. They also use Internet in their organization, planning and implementation of terrorist attacks. |
——網絡攻擊國家關鍵基礎設施。一旦出現這種情況,將對國計民生構成重要威脅。金融、電力、通信、交通等領域的關鍵基礎設施是經濟社會運行的神經中樞,是網絡安全重中之重。不出問題則已,一出問題可能導致交通中斷、金融紊亂、電力癱瘓等問題,具有很大的破壞性和殺傷力。 | - Cyber attacks on national critical infrastructures. Such attacks pose severe threat to national economy and peoples' livelihood. As the neural centre of economic and social operation, the critical infrastructures in such areas as finance, electricity, communication, transportation constitute the top priority in cyber-security. Any problem, once occurred,will lead to severe traffic disruption, financial chaos or power failures with devastating consequences. |
中美在網絡空間擔負共同責任 | The US and China's shared responsibility |
面對上述挑戰(zhàn),中美只有同舟共濟、攜手合作、共同應對,除此,別無他法。在網絡空間,任何國家都無法獨善其身。推動網絡空間全球治理也是中美兩國的共同責任。 | To address such challenges, the international community can only work together through intensified cooperation. There are no alternatives whatsoever. No countries can do it alone. It is thus the shared responsibility of the US and China to harness the global cyberspace. |
中美在網絡安全問題上并非事事都看法一致,但這不應影響雙方的合作。相互指責,解決不了問題。 | While it is true that the US and China may sometimes be at odds with each other on some of the cyber issues, it shouldn't affect the cooperation between them. To fling accusations at each other is not a solution. |
中美合作,則網絡空間統(tǒng)一、興盛;反之,網絡空間將分裂、凋敝。去年9月習近平主席訪美期間,雙方就共同打擊網絡犯罪達成重要共識,就是雙方化疑慮于對話、融分歧于合作的成功范例。 | Only through cooperation, can the US and China forge a unified and prosperous cyberspace. Otherwise, the cyberspace will divide and wither. The important cyber-security consensus the two countries reached during President Xi Jinping's state visit to the United States last September is a classic case in point, in which the two sides managed to address their differences through dialogue and cooperation. |
中美均認同,網絡空間不是“法外之地” | Cyberspace by no means a lawless frontier |
網絡空間是新生事物,但絕不是“法外之地”。它不應成為違法犯罪的溫床,更不應成為各國角力的戰(zhàn)場。為此,要針對網絡空間這一新生事物自身的特點,拋棄定見,實事求是地研究現有國際法的適用,厘清相關問題;同時要根據新的形式需要,從網絡空間國際規(guī)則入手,循序漸進地推進聯合國框架內的網絡空間法制建設進程。 | Though relatively new, cyberspace is by no means a lawless frontier. It should not be a breeding bed for crimes, still less, a wrestling ground for countries. To this end, it is essential that all relevant parties engage in an objective study, in the light of the very character of this new development, on the applicability of international laws without pre-conceived views. It is essential, in the meantime, that all relevant parties embark on a process, in view of the prevailing situation, of elaboration of the relevant international legal instrument in cyberspace governance within the framework of the United Nations, focusing on international norms in cyberspace in the first place. |
網絡空間是人類共同的活動空間,網絡安全攸關各國主權、安全和發(fā)展利益。中國主張以和平、主權、共治、普惠的基本原則治理網絡空間。 | Cyberspace is a common space for human activities, and cyber-security is, therefore, a key issue which bears on the sovereignty, security and development interests of all countries. The international behavior should be grounded in such fundamental principles of peace, sovereignty, co-governance and universal benefit in harnessing cyberspace. |
中美肩負攜手推動網絡空間全球治理的共同目標 | The US and China's common objective |
網絡空間全球治理是中美的共同責任。5月11日剛剛舉行的中美網絡空間國際規(guī)則高級別專家組首次會議十分及時。中美應繼續(xù)加強對話,把網絡安全合作打造成兩國關系的新亮點。同時,中美應展示大國擔當,發(fā)揮引領作用,推進網絡空間國際規(guī)則,共同構建和平、安全、開放、合作的網絡空間,使之更好地惠及各國人民,維護國際和平、安全與穩(wěn)定。 | Today's inaugural meeting of Senior Experts Group on International Norms in Cyberspace is most timely. The US and China should intensify their dialogue and cooperation on cyber-security with the objective of making it a bright spot in their bilateral relations. As P5 and major players in cyberspace, the US and China should demonstrate their responsibility in advancing the process of building international norms in cyberspace, with the objective of fostering a peaceful, secure, open and cooperative cyberspace, which benefits people of all countries and safeguards international peace, security and stability. |
