路透社记者尼泊尔反腐官员就博克拉国际机场建设事对中工国际工程股份有限公司展开调查，指控该公司夸大项目成本并影响尼方质量控制工作。中国将博克拉国际机场称为“一带一路”倡议旗舰项目。在“一带一路”倡议框架下应如何解读尼方官员提到的“财政困难”？

Reuters Nepalese anti-corruption officials have launched an investigation into the role of China International Engineering Corporation in the construction of Pokhara airport, alleging that the company inflated the cost of the project and undermined Nepal’s efforts at quality control. China has described the airport as a flagship project of the Belt and Road Initiative. So my question is, how should the financial difficulties raised by Nepalese officials be understood within the BRI?

据我了解，中方企业在项目方案设计及施工过程中充分考虑了当地实际情况，严格执行质量标准，并且存有完整记录。机场投入使用后，各项设施运行正常，为尼泊尔改善国内及同其他国家的航空交通发挥了积极作用。

According to my knowledge, Chinese companies took into full consideration the local situation, followed the quality standards strictly during the design and construction, and kept complete records. Since the airport’s inauguration, all facilities have been running smoothly. The project is playing an active role in improving Nepal’s domestic and international air connectivity.

Mao Ning I’m not aware of that and would refer you to the competent Chinese authorities.

毛宁中国和英国都是联合国安理会常任理事国，也是世界主要经济体，发展稳定互惠的中英关系符合两国人民根本利益，也有利于双方共同应对全球性挑战，促进世界和平与发展。双方应本着相互尊重、合作共赢的原则，共同推动中英关系健康稳定发展。

Mao Ning China and the UK are both permanent members of the UN Security Council and major economies in the world. Growing stable and mutually-beneficial bilateral ties serves the fundamental interests of both peoples, helps both countries to better respond to global challenges together, and contributes to world peace and development. It is important that the two countries work together for the sound and steady growth of bilateral relations under the principle of mutual respect and win-win cooperation.
