赵立坚关于第一个问题，一个中国原则是中美关系政治基础。“断交、废约、撤军”三原则是中美建交的前提。美方在《中美建交公报》中明确承诺，美同台保持文化、商务和其他非官方关系。美方应充分认清涉台问题的高度敏感性和有关问题的严重危害性，恪守一个中国原则和中美三个联合公报规定，停止售台武器和美台军事联系，以免严重损害中美关系与台海和平稳定。中方将采取一切必要措施，捍卫主权和领土完整。

Zhao Lijian On your first question, the one-China principle is the political foundation of China-US relations. China and the US established diplomatic relations on the premise of the three principles, namely, the US should sever "diplomatic relations" and abrogate the "mutual defense treaty" with the Taiwan authorities and withdraw US military forces from Taiwan. The US explicitly pledges in the China-US Joint Communiqué on the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations that it will "maintain cultural, commercial, and other unofficial relations with the people of Taiwan". The US should fully recognize the highly sensitive nature of Taiwan-related issues and the gravely detrimental nature of relevant issues, abide by the one-China principle and the three China-US joint communiqués, and stop arms sales to and military ties with Taiwan to avoid seriously damaging China-US relations and peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait. China will take all necessary measures to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity.

塔斯社记者据美国海军发表的声明，10月2日，美国海军“康涅狄格”号核动力潜艇在印太海域潜航时撞到一不明物体，造成潜艇损害。据媒体报道，该事件发生在南海海域。你对此有何评论？

TASS News Agency According to the US Navy statement, on October 2, US Navy nuclear-powered submarine USS Connecticut was damaged after it struck an unknown object while submerged in the waters of the Indo-Pacific region. According to media reports, the incident occurred in the waters of the South China Sea. Do you have any comments on this?

对于这次事故，我还想强调三点第一，长期以来，美方打着“航行自由”的旗号，在南海兴风作浪，是此次事故的根源，对地区和平稳定构成严重威胁和重大风险。第二，美方此次故意拖延和隐瞒事故详情，缺乏透明度，不负责任，中国及南海周边国家，不得不质疑事件真相和美方意图。第三，此次事件也表明，美国和英国最近决定与澳大利亚这一无核武器国家开展核潜艇合作，肆无忌惮地向亚太地区扩散核潜艇，势将制造核扩散风险，诱发军备竞赛，破坏东南亚无核区建设，发生核事故的概率也会大幅上升。美方应摒弃陈旧的冷战零和思维和狭隘的地缘政治观念，停止这种破坏地区和平稳定发展的错误做法。

I would also like to stress three points about the incident. First, the US has long been making trouble in the South China Sea in the name of "freedom of navigation", which poses a grave threat and major risks for regional peace and stability. This is the root cause of this incident. Second, the US deliberately stalled and concealed the specifics of the incident without transparency and due responsibility. China and other countries surrounding the South China Sea cannot help but ask what truly happened and what the US intention is. Third, we can also see the following from this incident. The US and the UK recently decided to conduct nuclear submarine cooperation with Australia, a non-nuclear weapon state, and flagrantly proliferate nuclear submarines in the Asia-Pacific. This is bound to create nuclear proliferation risks, spark an arms race and undermine efforts to establish a Southeast Asia nuclear-free-zone. The odds of a nuclear incident will also increase dramatically. The US should abandon the obsolete Cold War zero-sum mentality and narrow geopolitical notions, and stop such erroneous practice that undermine regional peace, stability and development.

赵立坚拉夫罗夫外长说得好！他的表态反映了亚太地区大多数国家的共同关切。不管是美国“印太战略”，还是美英澳三边安全伙伴关系和美日印澳“四边机制”，都是封闭、排他的小圈子，冷战零和思维突出，军事安全色彩浓厚，将刺激地区军备竞赛，加剧紧张局势，破坏地区团结合作。美方这种拉帮结派、针对第三方的做法，与地区国家致力于通过对话合作共谋发展、推动区域一体化的普遍愿望背道而驰，不得人心，没有出路。许多地区国家已对此表达了不同程度的质疑和反对。

Zhao Lijian That's very well-put indeed! Foreign Minister Lavrov's views reflect the shared concern of the vast majority of ASEAN countries. The US Indo-Pacific strategy, AUKUS and Quad are all closed and exclusive cliques informed by the Cold War zero-sum mentality with strong military security undertones. They will spur regional arms race, aggravate tension, and undermine regional unity and cooperation. The US practice of ganging up against a third party runs counter to regional countries' common aspiration to seek shared development through dialogue and cooperation and advance regional integration. It wins no hearts and has no future. Many ASEAN countries have questioned and opposed these moves to various degrees.

总台央视记者昨天，在联合国大会第一委员会，也就是裁军与国际安全事务委员会会议期间，中俄发表了两国外长关于加强《禁止生物武器公约》的联合声明。请发言人进一步介绍相关情况和中方立场。

CCTV Yesterday, during the UNGA First Committee (Disarmament & International Security) meeting, China and Russia issued a foreign ministers' Joint Statement on Strengthening the Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production and Stockpiling of Bacteriological (Biological) and Toxin Weapons and on their Destruction.
