汪文斌蓬佩奥全面否定四十多年来的中美关系，大肆污蔑攻击中国共产党，鼓吹全面对华围堵遏制，耸人听闻，狂言乱语，受到包括美国有识之士在内的，所有爱好和平、有正义感的人们的批评和谴责。

CGTN Richard Haass, president of the Council on Foreign Relations, recently cited his article in Washington Post titled "What Mike Pompeo doesn't understand about China, Richard Nixon and U.S. foreign policy" on Twitter to criticize Secretary of State Pompeo's speech at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library. In his words, "Pompeo's China speech Thursday not only misrepresented history but advocated a policy for the most important relationship of this era that is neither viable nor coherent. That he delivered it at the Nixon Library only added insult to injury." I wonder what is your comment on his words?

中国共产党的目标是实现中华民族伟大复兴，而不是取代美国。美国的国际地位归根结底取决于美国自己，而不应归咎他人。中国共产党是为中国人民谋幸福的政党，也是为人类进步事业而奋斗的政党。中国是和平共处五项原则的倡导者和实践者，是联合国安理会五个常任理事国中派出维和人员最多的国家，为和平解决朝鲜半岛核、伊朗核等国际地区热点问题以及应对气候变化等全球性挑战发挥了积极作用，近年来对世界经济增长的贡献率超过30%，为国际社会应对亚洲金融危机、国际金融危机作出重大贡献。这些事实世人有目共睹，是蓬佩奥抹杀不了的。

Pompeo's accusation of "CPC's designs for hegemony" is out of not only ignorance but also bias. The CPC started with only dozens of members, and today it has grown into a major party with over 91 million members and has long been the ruling party in the world's most populous country. The reason for it, which Pompeo's ignorant of, is that the CPC always puts people's interests as the first priority, and always sticks together with the people through thick and thin. As revealed in a research recently published by the John F. Kennedy School of Government of Harvard University, under the leadership of the CPC, the Chinese people's overall support and satisfaction towards the Central Government exceeds 93%. According to a research result released by Edelman, 95% of the Chinese people trust the Chinese government, ranking the top of all countries surveyed, while the US is the second to last with trust from only 48% citizens. The CPC's goal is to realize the great renewal of the Chinese nation, not replacing the US. In the end, the international status of the US depends on itself, not others. The CPC is a political party that strives for the well-being of the Chinese people as well as the progress of mankind. China champions and practices the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence. China is the largest contributor of peacekeepers among the five permanent members of the Security Council, and has been contributing to the peaceful settlement of the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue, the Iranian nuclear issue and other regional and international hotspots, as well as the response to climate change and other global challenges. In recent years China has contributed over 30 percent to the world economic growth, and has helped a lot in the international response to the financial crisis in Asia and the global financial crisis. These are all facts witnessed by the whole world, which cannot be erased by Pompeo.

今年距尼克松总统访华已近半个世纪了。中美关系半个世纪以来的发展历程表明，只有平等相待、相互尊重，中美关系才能稳定健康发展。中国无意改变美国，美国也改变不了中国。我们愿与美方发展以协调、合作、稳定为基调的中美关系，但不会接受任何霸凌和不公。中国人民不是软弱可欺的，世界人民不是轻易就被蒙骗的。我们敦促美方一小撮政客停止造谣诬蔑中国共产党和中国人民、阻挠破坏中美交往合作的错误言行。我们呼吁世界上所有爱好和平的国家和人士站出来，对蓬佩奥之流危害世界和平的疯狂行径说不！

It has been almost half a century since President Nixon's visit to China. The development of China-US relationship over this period of time taught us that a steady and sound bilateral relationship grows only when there's equality and mutual respect. China doesn't intend to change the US, and the US surely cannot alter China. We would like to develop China-US relations featuring coordination, cooperation and stability, but we reject any bullying and injustice. The Chinese people are not weak-kneed, and the world are not easily deceived. We urge a few US politicians to stop slandering the CPC and the Chinese people and undercutting China-US exchange and cooperation. We call on all peace-loving countries and people to step forward and say no to the insanity of Pompeo and his like that jeopardizes world peace.

汪文斌美方严重违反国际法和国际关系基本准则，发起政治挑衅在先，中方当然有权作出对等反制，维护中方正当权益，这符合国际法和国际关系基本准则。

Wang Wenbin The US, in serious breach of international law and basic norms of international relations, launched the political provocation first. China definitely has the right to react in equal measure to defend its legitimate rights and interests. This conforms with international law and basic norms of international relations.

汪文斌我刚才说过，中方要求美方关闭驻成都总领馆并对其实行接管，是对美方关闭中国驻休斯敦总领馆并强行进入中方馆舍这一无理行径的正当和必要反应。

Wang Wenbin As I just said, demanding the closure of the US Consulate General in Chengdu and taking over the premises is China's legitimate and necessary response to the unjustified US act of closing China's Consulate General in Houston and breaking into the compound. What China has done conforms with international law, the basic norms of international relations, and customary diplomatic practices.
