Foreign Minister Wang Yi noted that, since China and New Zealand established diplomatic relations, bilateral relations have enjoyed sound momentum of development. Mutual respect, inclusiveness, cooperation, and benefits to the peoples are the valuable lessons from the development of China-New Zealand relations. This year marks the 10th anniversary of President Xi Jinping’s state visit to New Zealand and the establishment of comprehensive strategic partnership between the two countries. China is ready to work with New Zealand to carry forward the pioneering spirit and achieve more “firsts”, so as to keep China-New Zealand relations at the forefront of China’s relations with developed countries. This benefits our two peoples, and will make new contribution to world peace and development. Foreign Minister Wang Yi pointed out that the Chinese economy will continually inject new momentum into the world economy, and will bring new opportunities for New Zealand. China is willing to join hands with New Zealand to actively implement the upgraded version of China-New Zealand Free Trade Agreement, launch consultations and negotiations on the negative list of trade in services at an early date, and take cooperation between the two countries to a new level. China welcomes New Zealand’s continued participation in Belt and Road cooperation. Foreign Minister Wang Yi also noted that both China and New Zealand are participants and contributors of the existing international system and international order. The two countries champion multilateralism, support the core role of the UN in international affairs, and are committed to resolving international disputes with peaceful means. China stands ready to work with New Zealand to enhance solidarity and cooperation, oppose Cold War mentality, unilateralism and protectionism, reject acts of turning back the wheel of history, and uphold the right direction of human progress.

双方就各领域务实合作达成广泛共识，同意举行外交政策、贸易、领事、南太、气候变化、人权等领域政府间对话，采取进一步措施便利人员往来，并就中国加入《数字经济伙伴关系协定》和《全面与进步跨太平洋伙伴关系协定》保持积极沟通。新西兰贸易部长将于4月访华。继王毅外长访新之后，两国外长将于年内实现互访。双方同意进一步开展高层交往。

The two sides reached broad-based common understandings on practical cooperation across the board, and agreed to hold intergovernmental dialogues in such areas as foreign policy, trade, consular affairs, South Pacific affairs, climate change, and human rights, take more steps to facilitate cross-border travel and maintain active communication on China’s accession to the Digital Economy Partnership Agreement and the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership. New Zealand’s Minister for Trade will visit China in April. After Foreign Minister Wang Yi’s visit to New Zealand, the two sides will achieve mutual visit of foreign ministers in this year. The two sides agreed to have more high-level exchanges.

林剑加沙冲突已持续5个多月，当地人道主义形势异常严峻。希法医院的困境是加沙人道危机的缩影。当务之急是立即停火止战，全力保护平民，避免更多伤亡，缓解人道危机。国际社会有关各方应为此采取切实举措，作出更大努力。

Lin Jian It’s been over five months since the Gaza conflict broke out. The humanitarian situation on the ground has become extremely dire. The struggling Dar Al-Shifa Hospital is an epitome of the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Currently the top priority is to achieve an immediate ceasefire, do everything possible to protect civilians, avoid more casualties and ease the humanitarian crisis. Relevant members of the international community need to take substantive measures and make a great effort to this end.

林剑美国不是南海问题当事方，也无权介入中菲两国之间的涉海问题。美菲军事合作不得损害中方在南海的主权和海洋权益，更不能以此为菲律宾非法主张站台背书。中方将继续采取必要措施坚定捍卫自身领土主权和海洋权益，维护南海和平稳定。

Lin Jian The US is not a party to the South China Sea issue and has no right to interfere in the maritime issues between China and the Philippines. The military cooperation between the US and the Philippines should not undermine China’s sovereignty and maritime rights and interests in the South China Sea, nor should it be used to support the illegal claims of the Philippines. China will continue to take necessary steps to firmly safeguard its territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests and uphold peace and stability in the South China Sea.
