尊敬的薩勒總統(tǒng)，

尊敬的各位同事、各位嘉賓、各位朋友：

Your Excellency President Macky Sall,

Distinguished Colleagues,

Dear Guests and Friends,

很高興出席中非合作論壇第八屆部長級會議開幕式。首先，我謹(jǐn)對薩勒總統(tǒng)和塞內(nèi)加爾政府為本次會議所作的精心準(zhǔn)備，表示誠摯的感謝！對各位同事和嘉賓出席會議，表示熱烈的歡迎！

It is such a pleasure to attend the opening ceremony of the Eighth Ministerial Conference of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC). Let me first express sincere appreciation to President Sall and the government of Senegal for their excellent organization, and extend a warm welcome to the colleagues and guests attending the Conference. 

今年是中非開啟外交關(guān)系65周年。65年來，中非雙方在反帝反殖的斗爭中結(jié)下了牢不可破的兄弟情誼，在發(fā)展振興的征程上走出了特色鮮明的合作之路，在紛繁復(fù)雜的變局中譜寫了守望相助的精彩篇章，為構(gòu)建新型國際關(guān)系樹立了光輝典范。

This year marks the 65th anniversary of the start of diplomatic relations between China and African countries. Over the past 65 years, China and Africa have forged unbreakable fraternity in our struggle against imperialism and colonialism, and embarked on a distinct path of cooperation in our journey toward development and revitalization. Together, we have written a splendid chapter of mutual assistance amidst complex changes, and set a shining example for building a new type of international relations. 

各位朋友！

Dear Friends,

中非關(guān)系為什么好？中非友誼為什么深？關(guān)鍵在于中非雙方締造了歷久彌堅的中非友好合作精神，那就是“真誠友好、平等相待，互利共贏、共同發(fā)展，主持公道、捍衛(wèi)正義，順應(yīng)時勢、開放包容”。這是中非雙方數(shù)十年來休戚與共、并肩奮斗的真實寫照，是中非友好關(guān)系繼往開來的力量源泉。

Why do China and Africa have such a close relationship and so deep a bond of friendship? The key lies in an everlasting spirit of China-Africa friendship and cooperation forged between the two sides, which features sincere friendship and equality, win-win for mutual benefit and  common development, fairness and justice, and progress with the times and openness and inclusiveness. This truly captures the relations of China and Africa working together in good and hard times over the past decades, and provides a source of strength for the continuous growth of China-Africa friendly relations.

今年是中國恢復(fù)在聯(lián)合國合法席位50周年。在此，我謹(jǐn)向當(dāng)年支持中國的廣大非洲朋友表示衷心的感謝！我愿鄭重重申，中國永遠(yuǎn)不會忘記非洲國家的深情厚誼，將繼續(xù)秉持真實親誠理念和正確義利觀，同非洲朋友一道，讓中非友好合作精神代代相傳、發(fā)揚光大。

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the restoration of China's lawful seat in the United Nations. Here, let me express sincere appreciation to the many African friends who supported China back then. Let me also make it solemnly clear that China will never forget the profound friendship of African countries and will remain guided by the principle of sincerity, real results, amity and good faith and the principle of pursuing the greater good and shared interests. China will work together with African friends to promote and carry forward the spirit of China-Africa friendship and cooperation from generation to generation. 

各位朋友！

Dear Friends,

我在2018年中非合作論壇北京峰會上提出構(gòu)建更加緊密的中非命運共同體，得到非方領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人一致贊同。3年多來，中非雙方并肩攜手，全力推進落實“八大行動”等峰會成果，完成了一大批重點合作項目，中非貿(mào)易額和中國對非洲的投資額穩(wěn)步攀升，幾乎所有論壇非方成員都加入了共建“一帶一路”合作大家庭，為中非全面戰(zhàn)略合作伙伴關(guān)系注入了強勁動力。

At the 2018 FOCAC Beijing Summit, I proposed that we build an even stronger China-Africa community with a shared future. The proposal was unanimously endorsed by African leaders. Over the past three years and more, China and Africa have worked together to fully implement the eight major initiatives and other outcomes of the Beijing Summit, and completed a large number of priority cooperation projects. China-Africa trade and China's investment in Africa have been on a steady rise. Almost all African members of FOCAC have joined the big family of Belt and Road cooperation. All these have injected strong impetus into the China-Africa comprehensive strategic and cooperative partnership. 

千里之行，始于足下。站在構(gòu)建新時代中非命運共同體的歷史起點上，我愿提出4點主張。

A journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step. As we stand at the historic starting point of building a China-Africa community with a shared future in the new era, I wish to make the following four proposals:

第一，堅持團結(jié)抗疫。我們要堅持人民至上、生命至上，弘揚科學(xué)精神，支持疫苗知識產(chǎn)權(quán)豁免，切實保障疫苗在非洲的可及性和可負(fù)擔(dān)性，彌合“免疫鴻溝”。

First, fighting COVID-19 with solidarity. We need to put people and their lives first, be guided by science, support waiving intellectual property rights on COVID-19 vaccines, and truly ensure the accessibility and affordability of vaccines in Africa to bridge the immunization gap. 

第二，深化務(wù)實合作。我們要開創(chuàng)中非合作新局面，擴大貿(mào)易和投資規(guī)模，共享減貧脫貧經(jīng)驗，加強數(shù)字經(jīng)濟合作，促進非洲青年創(chuàng)業(yè)和中小企業(yè)發(fā)展。我在今年聯(lián)合國大會上提出的全球發(fā)展倡議，同非盟《2063年議程》和聯(lián)合國2030年可持續(xù)發(fā)展議程高度契合，歡迎非洲國家積極支持和參與。

Second, deepening practical cooperation. We need to open up new prospects for China-Africa cooperation, expand trade and investment, share experience on poverty reduction, strengthen cooperation on digital economy, and promote entrepreneurship by young Africans and the development of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). At the UN General Assembly this year, I put forward the Global Development Initiative, which dovetails with the African Union's Agenda 2063 and the UN's 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. We welcome the active support and participation by African countries. 

第三，推進綠色發(fā)展。面對氣候變化這一全人類重大挑戰(zhàn)，我們要倡導(dǎo)綠色低碳理念，積極發(fā)展太陽能、風(fēng)能等可再生能源，推動應(yīng)對氣候變化《巴黎協(xié)定》有效實施，不斷增強可持續(xù)發(fā)展能力。

Third, promoting green development. In the face of climate change, which is a major challenge to all humanity, we need to advocate green and low-carbon development, actively promote solar, wind and other sources of renewable energy, work for effective implementation of the Paris Agreement on climate change and keep strengthening our capacity for sustainable development.

第四，維護公平正義。世界需要真正的多邊主義。和平、發(fā)展、公平、正義、民主、自由是全人類的共同價值，是中非雙方孜孜以求的共同目標(biāo)。我們都主張走符合自身國情的發(fā)展道路，都致力于維護發(fā)展中國家權(quán)益，都反對干涉內(nèi)政、種族歧視、單邊制裁。我們要理直氣壯堅持發(fā)展中國家的正義主張，把我們的共同訴求和共同利益轉(zhuǎn)化為共同行動。

Fourth, upholding equity and justice. The world needs true multilateralism. Peace, development, equity, justice, democracy and freedom are common values of humanity and represent the abiding aspirations of both China and Africa. We both advocate a development path suited to our national conditions and are both committed to upholding the rights and interests of developing countries. We both oppose intervention in domestic affairs, racial discrimination and unilateral sanctions. We need to unequivocally stand for the just propositions of developing countries and translate our common aspirations and interests into joint actions.   

各位朋友！

Dear Friends,

本次會議前，中非雙方共同制訂了《中非合作2035年愿景》。作為愿景首個三年規(guī)劃，中國將同非洲國家密切配合，共同實施“九項工程”。

各位朋友！

Dear Friends,

塞內(nèi)加爾開國總統(tǒng)桑戈爾曾經(jīng)寫道，“讓我們向新生的世界報到吧。”我相信，在中非雙方共同努力下，這次中非合作論壇會議一定能夠取得圓滿成功，凝聚起中非27億人民的磅礴力量，推動構(gòu)建高水平中非命運共同體。

Senegal's first President Léopold Sédar Senghor once wrote, "Let us answer 'present' at the rebirth of the world." I am convinced that the concerted efforts of China and Africa will make this FOCAC Conference a full success, one that shall pool the mighty strength of the 2.7 billion Chinese and Africans and guide us toward a high-level China-Africa community with a shared future.

謝謝大家。

Thank you.
