All right, we can begin. I will first give some remarks, then I will invite Mr. President to speak.
Your Excellency President Trump, I am very pleased to meet with you in Beijing. This is your first visit to China in nine years.
Our meeting can now be said to have captured worldwide attention. At present, changes unseen in a century are accelerating, the international situation is a tangle of upheavals, and the world has come to a new crossroads.
Whether China and the United States can transcend the so-called Thucydides Trap and create a new paradigm for major-country relations, whether we can work together to tackle global challenges and inject more stability into the world,
whether we can reflect the well-being of our two peoples and the future and destiny of humankind, and jointly open up a bright future for China-U.S. relations, these can be called questions posed by history, by the world, and by the people,
and they are also the answers of our times that you and I, as leaders of major countries, must write together. This year marks the 250th anniversary of American independence, and I would like to extend my congratulations to you and to the American people.
I have always believed that the common interests between China and the United States outweigh our differences, that the success of each is an opportunity for the other, and that stable China-U.S. relations are a boon for the world.
When our two sides cooperate, we both benefit, when we fight, we both lose. We should be partners, not rivals, helping each other to succeed, achieving shared prosperity, and blazing a correct path for major countries to get along in the new era.
I look forward to exchanging views with you, Mr. President, on major issues concerning our two countries and the world, so that together we can steer the great ship of China-U.S. relations on the right course and hold the rudder firmly,
making 2026 a historic and symbolic year that links the past and opens up the future in China-U.S. relations.

好,我们可以开始了。我先做一个致辞,然后请总统先生再做一个致辞。 尊敬的特朗普总统先生,很高兴同你在北京见面。这是你时隔九年再次访华。 我们的会面,现在可以说是举世瞩目。当前百年变局加速演进,国际形势是变乱交织,世界走到新的十字路口。 中美两国能不能跨越所谓的修昔底德陷阱,开创大国关系的新范式,能不能携手应对全球挑战,为世界注入更多的稳定性, 能不能彰映两国人民的福祉和人类前途命运,共同开创两国关系的美好未来,这些可以说是历史之问,世界之问,人民之问,
也是我和您作为大国领导人需要共同书写的时代答卷。今年是美国独立250周年,我向你和美国人民表示祝贺。 我始终认为中美之间的共同利益大于分歧,中美各自成功是彼此的机遇,中美关系稳定是世界的利好。 双方合则两利,斗则俱伤,应当做伙伴而不是对手,相互成就,共同繁荣,走出一条新时代大国正确相处之道。 我期待着从总统先生就事关两国和世界的重大问题交换意见,共同为中美关系这艘大船领好航,长好舵, 让2026年成为中美关系既往开来的历史性标志性年份。
