第一，中国始终走和平发展道路，坚定奉行防御性国防政策。中国国防力量的发展，既是维护自身主权、安全和发展利益的需要，也是维护国际和地区和平稳定的需要。中国将继续做世界和平的建设者，全球发展的贡献者，国际秩序的维护者。中国无论发展到什么程度，永远不称霸、不扩张、不谋求势力范围。中方没兴趣同任何人玩军备竞赛游戏。

First, China follows the path of peaceful development and is committed to a national defense policy that is defensive in nature. The development of China's national defense forces is necessitated by the need to safeguard its own sovereignty, security and development interests, and to uphold international and regional peace and stability. China will continue to be a promoter of world peace, a contributor to global development and a defender of the international order. No matter how strong China grows, it will never seek hegemony, expansion or sphere of influence. China has no interest in engaging in an arms racewith anyone.

第三，日本近代军国主义侵略扩张给包括中国在内的亚洲各国人民带来深重灾难。作为二战战败国，日本动辄喊打喊杀、舞枪弄棒，无非是要突破战后束缚，重走军事扩张老路。日本和军费占全球近四成的美国结盟，四处炫耀武力，竟然还指责他国正常军力发展，这种做法极其无理。我要奉劝日方反躬自省，停止破坏地区和平稳定局势，停止对中国造谣中伤。

Third, aggression and expansion launched by Japanese militarism in modern times have inflicted untold sufferingson the people in Asia, including China. Japan is a defeated country in World War II. Its belligerent moves are aimed at shaking off the post-war shackles and return to the old path of military expansion. As an ally of the US whose military spending accounts for nearly 40% of the world's total, Japan has been flexing muscles everywhere while criticizing other countries' normal military development. This is extremely unjustified. I urge the Japanese side to reflect on itself, stop undermining regional peace and stability, and stop slandering China.

赵立坚首先我要纠正你的说法，我们不承认所谓的“部长”。台湾当局以疫谋独、借疫情搞政治操弄的做法毫无意义。

Zhao Lijian First of all, I would like to correct you on the term "health minister" because we do not recognize the so-called "minister" of Taiwan. It is pointless for the Taiwan region to seek independence and engage in political manipulation under the pretext of COVID-19.

赵立坚中美关系保持健康稳定，不仅符合两国人民根本利益，也是地区国家和国际社会的普遍期待。中方致力于同美方发展不冲突不对抗、相互尊重、合作共赢的关系，同时也将坚定维护国家主权、安全、发展利益。美方应该顺应时代潮流，倾听地区国家心声，正确看待中国，同中方相向而行，加强对话、聚焦合作、管控分歧，推动中美关系健康稳定向前发展。

Zhao Lijian A stable and sound China-US relation is not only in line with the fundamental interests of our two peoples, but also a shared expectation of regional countries and the international community. China remains committed to a relationship featuring non-conflict, non-confrontation, mutual respect and win-win cooperation with the US. In the meantime, we will firmly uphold national sovereignty, security and development interests. The US side should conform to the trend of the times, heed the aspirations of regional countries, view China from an objective perspective, and meet China halfway, to enhance dialogue, highlight cooperation, manage differences, so as to promotethe sound and steady growth of China-US relations.

赵立坚我们高度赞赏洪森首相的有关表态。洪森首相是本地区资深政治家，也是中国人民尊敬的好朋友、老朋友，具有敏锐的政治洞察力和战略远见，一贯在重大问题上秉持客观公正立场，不仅为柬埔寨国家发展和维护民族尊严作出杰出贡献，也为维护国际关系民主化以及国际和地区的和平、稳定与发展作出了积极努力。

Zhao Lijian We highly appreciate Prime Minister Hun Sen's relevant statement. Prime Minister Hun Sen is a veteran statesman in the region , and a good old friend of the Chinese people. With acute political insight and strategic vision, he always holds an objective and just position on major issues. He not only made outstanding contribution to promoting Cambodia's national development and safeguarding national dignity, but also made positive efforts in upholding democracyin international relations, and peace, stability and development of the region and the world.
