回首2021年，世纪疫情和百年变局加速演进。我们隆重庆祝中国共产党百年华诞，全面建成小康社会，历史性地解决绝对贫困问题，开启了第二个百年新征程。从元首外交到抗疫外交，从“一带一路”倡议到全球发展倡议，从孟晚舟回家到同尼加拉瓜复交，中国外交书写了辉煌篇章。
In 2021, we have witnessed the accelerated evolution of the pandemic and changes unseen in a century. We celebrated the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China (CPC), completed the building of a moderately prosperous society in all respects, historically eliminated absolute poverty, and embarked on a journey toward realizing the second centenary goal of building China into a great modern socialist country in all respects. We have written a splendid chapter in China’s diplomacy, from head-of-state diplomacy to anti-COVID-19 diplomacy, from the Belt and Road Initiative to the Global Development Initiative, and from the return of Meng Wanzhou to the resumption of diplomatic relations between China and Nicaragua.
一年来，外交部例行记者会共举行230场，回答3000多个问题。外交部部内各单位在境内外17个新媒体平台开设账号，总粉丝量已突破7300万。我们还开展了“100天讲述中国共产党对外交往100个故事”活动，也称为“双百故事”。“双百故事”在国内外累计阅读量超过10亿。可以说，2021年也见证了中国国际话语权稳步提升。
In this year of 2021, the foreign ministry has held 230 regular press conferences and took more than 3,000 questions from the press in total. Official accounts of the foreign ministry have been opened in 17 new media platforms at home and abroad, garnering more than 73 million followers. We launched the “100 CPC Stories in 100 Days” series, which has been read by over one billion people. It’s probably fair to say that 2021 witnessed the steady increase of China’s voice in the world.
展望2022年，中国将举办北京冬奥会，并将迎来党的二十大。我们将继续讲好中国故事、中国共产党的故事和中国人民的故事，全力配合办好北京冬奥会，为二十大胜利召开营造安全稳定的外部环境。一句话，2022年中国外交将更加精彩！
In the upcoming year of 2022, China will host the Beijing Winter Olympic Games and hold the 20th National Congress of the CPC. We will continue to tell the stories of China, the CPC and the Chinese people, play our part to ensure a successful Beijing Winter Olympics and foster a secure and stable external environment for the 20th National Congress of the CPC. In a nutshell, we will expect more exciting moments in China’s diplomacy in the year to come.
