当前，世界进入新的动荡变革期，面临关键抉择。是任由世界动荡不安，还是推动其重回和平发展的正道？我想到俄罗斯作家车尔尼雪夫斯基的著作《怎么办？》，书中主人公的坚强意志和奋斗激情，正是当前我们所需要的精神力量。时代的风浪越大，我们越要勇立潮头，以坚韧不拔之志、敢为人先之勇、识变应变之谋，把金砖打造成促进“全球南方”团结合作的主要渠道、推动全球治理变革的先锋力量。

As the world enters a new period defined by turbulence and transformation, we are confronted with pivotal choices that will shape our future. Should we allow the world to descend into the abyss of disorder and chaos, or should we strive to steer it back on the path of peace and development? This reminds me of a novel by Nikolay Chernyshevsky entitled What Is to Be Done? The protagonist’s unwavering determination and passionate drive are exactly the kind of willpower we need today. The more tumultuous our times become, the more we must stand firm at the forefront, exhibiting tenacity, demonstrating the audacity to pioneer and displaying the wisdom to adapt. We must work together to build BRICS into a primary channel for strengthening solidarity and cooperation among Global South nations and a vanguard for advancing global governance reform.

——我们要建设“和平金砖”，做共同安全的维护者。人类是不可分割的安全共同体。只有践行共同、综合、合作、可持续的安全观，才能走出一条普遍安全之路。乌克兰危机还在延宕。中国和巴西会同有关“全球南方”国家发起了乌克兰危机“和平之友”小组，旨在汇集更多致力于和平的声音。我们要坚持“战场不外溢、战事不升级、各方不拱火”三原则，推动局势尽快缓和。加沙地区的人道主义形势持续恶化，黎巴嫩战火又起，相关各方间的冲突还在进一步升级。我们要推动尽快停火、停止杀戮，为全面、公正、持久解决巴勒斯坦问题不懈努力。

—We should build a BRICS committed to peace, and we must all act as defenders of common security. We humans are an indivisible community of security. Only by embracing the vision of common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable security can we pave the way for universal security. The Ukraine crisis still persists. China and Brazil, in collaboration with other countries from the Global South, initiated a group of Friends for Peace to address the crisis. The aim is to gather more voices advocating peace. We must uphold the three key principles: no expansion of the battlefields, no escalation of hostilities, and no fanning flames, and strive for swift deescalation of the situation. While the humanitarian situation in Gaza continues to deteriorate, the flames of war have once again been rekindled in Lebanon, and conflicts are escalating among the parties. We must promote an immediate ceasefire and an end to the killing. We must make unremitting efforts toward a comprehensive, just and lasting resolution of the Palestinian question.

——我们要建设“公正金砖”，做全球治理体系改革的引领者。国际力量对比正在深刻演变，但全球治理体系改革长期滞后。我们要践行真正的多边主义，坚持共商共建共享的全球治理观，以公平正义、开放包容为理念引领全球治理改革。我们要顺应“全球南方”崛起大势，积极回应各国加入金砖合作机制的呼声，推进扩员和设置伙伴国进程，提升发展中国家在全球治理中的代表性和发言权。

—We should build a BRICS committed to justice, and we must all act as forerunners in reforming global governance. The international power dynamics is undergoing profound changes, but global governance reform has lagged behind for a long time. We should champion true multilateralism and adhere to the vision of global governance characterized by extensive consultation, joint contribution, and shared benefits. We must ensure that global governance reform is guided by the principles of fairness, justice, openness and inclusiveness. In light of the rise of the Global South, we should respond favorably to the calls from various countries to join BRICS. We should advance the process of expanding BRICS membership and establishing a partner country mechanism, and enhance the representation and voice of developing nations in global governance.

中方愿同金砖各国一道，开创“大金砖合作”高质量发展新局面，携手更多“全球南方”国家共同推动构建人类命运共同体！

China is willing to work with all BRICS countries to open a new horizon in the high-quality development of greater BRICS cooperation, and join hands with Global South countries in building a community with a shared future for mankind.

近年来，中国秉持习近平主席提出的人民城市重要理念，以人为核心的新型城镇化建设成效显著。城市空间布局持续优化，配套功能日趋完善，人居环境愈加舒适，城市治理更加高效。相信在座的各位记者朋友对此也感同身受。集安全感、舒适感和未来感于一体的“中国游”体验，让中国城市收获了海外口碑。同时，我们也同各国特别是全球南方国家分享城市治理和发展经验，开展住房发展、绿色低碳、智慧城市等领域交流。中国还积极参与联合国人居领域合作，通过举办世界城市日系列活动、设立全球可持续发展城市奖（上海奖），支持联合国人居署推进《新城市议程》，得到国际社会广泛认可。

In recent years, adhering to President Xi’s vision of building people-centered cities, China has made remarkable progress in advancing a new type of people-centered urbanization, with urban spatial layout continuously optimized, urban amenities further improved, living environment increasingly comfortable, and urban governance more efficient. I’m sure that many of you here today can relate to that. The “China Travel” experience—safe, comfortable, and futuristic—has earned Chinese cities a reputation overseas. In the meantime, we also share our experience of urban governance and development with countries around the world particularly those from the Global South, promoting exchanges in areas such as housing development, green and low-carbon development, and smart cities. Besides, China is actively engaged in cooperation with UN-Habitat. Through events celebrating World Cities Day and the Global Award for Sustainable Development in Cities (Shanghai Award), China is supporting UN-Habitat in advancing the New Urban Agenda, winning broad recognition from the international community.

澎湃新闻记者：我们注意到，中国政府昨天发布了《“以高质量城市发展助力落实联合国2030年可持续发展议程”——中国落实〈新城市议程〉国家报告》。联合国人居署执行主任罗斯巴赫等国际人士对此积极评价，认为中国城市发展经验为全球南方国家提供了宝贵借鉴。请问发言人对此有何评论？

The Paper: We noted that the Chinese government released yesterday China’s National Report on the Implementation of the New Urban Agenda titled Advancing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development through High-Quality Urban Development. Executive Director of the United Nations Human Settlement Program (UN-Habitat) Anaclaudia Rossbach and others from the international community have spoken highly of the report, stating that China’s experience in urban development offers valuable lessons for Global South countries. What is your comment?

毛宁：中国和巴西分别是东西半球最大的发展中国家，同为金砖国家和全球南方重要成员，两国关系长期走在中国同发展中国家关系的前列。近年来，在两国元首战略引领下，中巴关系保持良好发展势头，两国命运共同体建设和发展战略对接进展顺利，各领域务实合作成果丰硕，两国关系彰显全球性、战略性和长远性影响。

Mao Ning: China and Brazil, each the largest developing country in its hemisphere, are both important members of BRICS and the Global South. China-Brazil relations have long been at the forefront of China’s relations with fellow developing nations. In recent years, under the strategic guidance of the heads of state of the two countries, bilateral ties have maintained a sound momentum of growth. There has been smooth progress in building a China-Brazil community with a shared future and synergizing development strategies, and fruitful outcomes in practical cooperation in various areas. The relationship is demonstrating increasing global, strategic and long-term influence.
