十二屆全國人大四次會議新聞中心于3月8日10時在梅地亞中心多功能廳舉行記者會，邀請外交部部長王毅就“中國的外交政策和對外關系”的相關問題回答中外記者的提問。

以下是王毅外長回答記者提問時的一些金句摘錄。

>>有關G20

我們將著力從三個新的角度來尋求峰會的突破。一是以創新發掘新動力。二是以改革注入新活力。三是以發展開辟新前景。
We will try to break new ground from three new angles: first we want to discover new sources of growth for innovation, second, we want to inject new momentum to the world economy through reform, and third, we want to explore new prospects through development.

讓G20從杭州再出發，讓世界經濟從中國再出發。
Hangzhou will be a new launch pad of G20, and China will be a new launch pad for the world economy.

>>有關對朝制裁

制裁是必要手段，維穩是當務之急，談判是根本之道。
Sanctions are just a necessary means, maintaining stability is the pressing priority, and only negotiation could provide a fundamental solution.

>>有關中國外交

中國特色大國外交的努力目標是助力民族復興的“中國夢”和建設人類命運共同體。
The goal of major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics is to help realize the?Chinese dream of national rejuvenation and build a community of shared destiny for all mankind.

>>有關南海問題

航行自由并不等于橫行自由，如果有人想把南海攪渾，把亞洲搞亂，中國不會答應，本地區絕大多數國家也不會允許。
Navigation freedom does not mean "doing whatever you want" in South China Sea. If someone wants to muddy the waters in the South China Sea and to destabilize Asia, China will not agree to it and I think the majority of countries in the region will not allow that to happen.

>>有關菲律賓南海申訴案

有人興風作浪，還有人炫耀武力......歷史終將證明，誰只是匆匆過客，誰才是真正的主人。
Some people are trying to make waves (in the South China Sea) and some others are showing their forces... History will prove who is merely a guest and who is the real host.

>>有關中朝關系

中國既重情義，也講原則。我們珍視同朝鮮的傳統友好，朝鮮要謀發展、求安全，我們愿意提供支持和幫助。但同時，我們堅持半島無核化的立場毫不含糊，對朝方推進核、導計劃，我們不會遷就。應該清楚地看到，無核才能和平，對話才是出路，合作才能共贏。
China both values friendship and stands on principles. We cherish our traditional bonds with the DPRK. If the country seeks development and security, we are prepared to help and provide support. But at the same time, we have an unwavering commitment to the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula, and we will not accommodate the DPRK's pursuit of nuclear and missile programs. One should see very clearly that only denuclearization could bring peace, only dialogue could provide a way out and only cooperation can bring win-win outcomes.

>>有關中美關系

中美作為兩個大國，既有合作，也有摩擦，這可能是一個常態。
China and the US are two major countries, and there is both cooperation and friction. This might be a normal state of affairs.

>>有關中俄關系

中俄關系是成熟、穩定的。我們的全面戰略協作伙伴關系建立在相互支持、相互信任的牢固基礎上，也有著加強合作、互利雙贏的巨大需求，完全經得起任何國際風云的檢驗，不會因一時一事而改變。
The China-Russia relationship is mature and stable. Our comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination is built on a solid foundation of mutual support and mutual trust. The two sides have a strong desire to strengthen win-win cooperation. The relationship can pass the test of any international development and will not be weakened by any particular incidents.

>>有關“一帶一路”

“一帶一路”倡議是中國的，但機遇是世界的。
The Belt and Road Initiative is China's idea, but the opportunities it has created belong to the world.

>>有關中東政策

中國在中東不搞勢力范圍，也不尋求代理人，我們要做的，就是本著客觀公正態度，著力勸和促談，光明磊落、坦坦蕩蕩。
China's policy on the Middle East is to facilitate peace talks with an objective and impartial attitude, instead of seeking a sphere of influence or proxies.

>>有關海外領事保護

非常坦率地講，我們資源有限，手段不足，能力建設亟待加強。
To be honest, our resources and tools are limited and our capacity not yet up to the task.

事先預防而非事后補救，才是最好的辦法。預防性領保是我們今后工作的方向。
The best approach is prevention beforehand rather than remedy afterwards, so we will focus more on preventative consular protection.

>>有關中日關系

日本政府和領導人，一方面不斷地聲稱要改善日中關系，一方面又不斷到處給中國找麻煩。這實際上是一種典型的“雙面人”的做法。
On one hand, the Japanese government and leaders say all the nice things about wanting to improve relations, but on the other hand, they are making trouble for China at every turn. This is what I would call a typical case of "double dealing".

對中日關系而言，病根就在于日本當政者的對華認知出了問題。面對中國的發展，究竟是把中國當作朋友還是敵人？當做伙伴還是對手？日方應該認真想好這個問題，想透這個問題。
As far as China-Japan relations are concerned, the underlying problem is that some politicians in Japan have the wrong perception about China. Do they view China as a friend or foe? As a partner or an adversary? The Japanese side should give serious thought to this question and make the right choice.

>>有關中歐關系

中歐關系的積極變化不是一時之計，而是長遠和必然的選擇。
Positive changes in the China-Europe relations are not a temporary phenomenon but an inevitable choice in the long run.
