朝鲜半岛关系:
问:据报道,5日,韩国统一部发言人称,朝鲜当天表示,同意接受韩方此前提议,于9日在板门店举行朝韩高级别会谈。中方对此有何评论?
Q: According to reports, ROK Ministry of Unification spokesperson said on January 5 that the DPRK has accepted the proposal for high-level talks at Panmunjom on January 9. what is China’s comment?
答:我们注意到这一最新进展。
A: We have noted this latest development.
连日来,我已多次就最近半岛局势中出现的积极动向作出回应,表明中方立场。我愿再次强调,作为半岛的近邻,中方欢迎并支持朝韩双方近来就缓和相互关系采取的积极举动。我们希望国际社会对此予以支持,共同努力找到缓和紧张、增进互信、恢复对话的有效路径。
In past few days, I stated China’s stance in response to the positive trend in the situation on the Korean Peninsula several times. I would like to stress again that as a close neighbor of the Peninsula, China welcomes and supports the DPRK and the ROK’s recent positive moves to improve their relations. We also hope that the international community can give its support and work together to find a viable path to easing tensions, enhancing mutual trust and resuming dialogue.
长期以来,中方为解决半岛问题作出了不懈努力,自始至终发挥着积极和建设性的作用。在半岛局势复杂敏感的情况下,中方始终对外发出冷静理性的声音,始终积极做各方工作,劝和促谈。
China has all along been making relentless efforts to resolve the Korean Peninsula issue and playing a positive and constructive role. Under the complex and sensitive circumstances on the Peninsula, China has always spoken in rational and calm voices, worked on various parties and promoted peace talks.
在此,我愿再次呼吁所有有关各方都与中方一道,发挥应有作用,承担应有责任,抓住当前半岛局势中的积极动向,共同努力,争取早日把半岛问题重新纳入通过对话协商以和平方式解决的正确轨道。
I would like to call again here on all relevant parties to work with China to play their due role and fulfill due responsibility, seize the current positive trend in the situation on the Peninsula, and join hands to bring the Peninsula issue back to the right track of peaceful settlement through dialogue and consultation at an early date.
问:日前,美国总统特朗普在“推特”上发文,将朝韩双方恢复官方会谈的功劳归于自己,称这是得益于他以美国的实力坚强有力地对抗朝鲜。中方对此有何评论?
Q: In a tweet, President Trump took credit for the DPRK and the ROK holding their official talk, saying that it was the result of his firm and strong stance to commit US might against the DPRK. What is your comment?
答:最近几天,我们已经多次表明中方对近来半岛局势出现积极动向的看法和立场。韩朝恢复交流和对话有助于双方关系改善和半岛局势缓和,也符合地区国家和国际社会的共同利益。中方欢迎地区各方和国际社会继续支持朝韩双方改善关系的努力,同时为此发挥建设性作用。
A: As a matter of fact, we stated China’s view and position on recent positive trend on the Korean Peninsula in last few days. The resumption of communication and talk between the ROK and the DPRK is conducive to improving inter-Korean relations and easing tension on the Peninsula and in the interests of this region and the international community. China welcomes the efforts of parties in this region and the international community to improve inter-Korean relations, and is playing a constructive role to this end.
刚才我已经说过了,我们希望所有有关各方都能发挥应有的作用,承担应有的责任。
As I just said, we hope all relevant parties can play their due role and fulfill their due responsibility.
问:据韩国媒体报道,有多艘中国公司所有的船只多次变换船旗国和注册地,从事违反安理会对朝制裁决议的活动。中方对此有何评论?
Q: According to ROK media reports, several ships owned by Chinese companies have changed their flag state and place of registration for several times, and engaged in activities in violation of Security Council’s DPRK-related resolutions. What’s your comment?
答:最近一段时间,我和我的同事已经多次就类似的问题作出回应。中国政府始终全面、严格执行安理会决议,履行自身承担的国际义务。我们绝不允许中国公民和企业从事违反安理会决议的活动。国际航运业高度开放,船只变更船旗国、注册地或租赁给其他方面的情况非常常见。对于在第三国注册的船只运营,中方并不掌握具体情况。对任何经调查确属违反安理会决议的行为,中方都将依法依规作出严肃处罚。
A: My colleagues and I took similar questions many times over last few weeks. The Chinese government has always comprehensively and strictly implemented Security Council resolutions and fulfilled its international obligations. We never allows Chinese citizens and enterprises to engage in activities violating Security Council resolutions. The international shipping industry is highly open, and it's very common for ships to change their flag state and place of registration or to be leased to other parties. With regard to the operation of ships registered in a third country, China is not aware of every detail. China will seriously punish any action that is verified as a violation of Security Council resolutions.
问:韩国方面昨天宣布,美韩双方已经同意在平昌冬奥会期间推迟举行联合军演。中方对此有何评论?
Q: The ROK announced yesterday that the US and the ROK have agreed to delay joint military exercises during the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics. What is your comment?
答:这无疑是一件好事情。我们多次说过,中方对近来半岛局势出现的积极动向表示欢迎。我们希望半岛问题有关各方能以平昌冬奥会为契机,相向而行,为缓和半岛局势、推动有关问题重返对话协商的正轨、实现半岛无核化作出切实努力。
A: This is undoubtedly a good thing. As we said many times, we welcome the recent positive trend on the Korean Peninsula. We hope relevant parties of the Korean Peninsula issue can take this opportunity of Pyeongchang Winter Olympics to work for the shared goal and make concrete effort to ease tensions on the Peninsula, bring the issue back to the right track of peaceful settlement through dialogue and consultation and realize the denuclearization of the Peninsula.

其它问题:
问:据了解,近日中国出台了人才签证制度,请您介绍一下有关情况。根据此制度,外国人才申请来华签证有何变化?
Q: According to what we learn, China has recently rolled out a new visa application system for foreign talents. Do you have more information on that? What kind of changes can be expected with the introduction of this new system?
答:2017年11月28日,国家外专局、外交部和公安部联合印发了《外国人才签证制度实施办法》,进一步扩大人才签证发放范围和期限。
A: On November 28, 2017, the State Administration of Foreign Experts Affairs, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Public Security have co-released a document regarding the implementation of the Foreign Talents Visa System, which aims to further expand the scope and the validity period of visa issuance.
根据外交部部署,中国驻外使领馆已于2018年1月1日起进一步简化经国内人才主管部门认定的外国人才来华签证手续,具体措施可以用四个“最”来概括:一是最长有效期,也就是颁发有效期为10年的签证;二是最长停留期,也就是颁发停留期为180天的签证;三是最短审发时间,也就是申请次日即可颁发签证;四是最优惠待遇,包括“零费用”办理,即外国人才及其家属免交签证费和急件费。
China’s diplomatic missions overseas, following instructions from the Foreign Ministry, have begun to further streamline visa application procedures for foreign talents who are certified by China’s competent authorities for talents. There are four most salient features in this new system. First, the longest period of validity, that is to say, eligible foreign personnel will be issued visas valid for as long as 10 years. Second, the longest stay, which means that the visas are valid for a maximum stay of 180 days. Third, the fastest review and approval, which means visas can be issued just one day after application. Fourth, most preferential treatment, including free-of-charge application, which enables foreign talents as well as their spouses and children to be charged nothing for visa fees and dispatch fees.
新的签证优化改革举措将进一步增强中国人才引进的开放程度,吸引更多外国人才参与中国建设,增强中国整体创新能力,同时也有助于帮助外国人才分享中国发展机遇,施展自身才华,成就自身事业。
These new measures to optimize and reform visa system will enhance the openness in drawing in foreign talents, attracting more of them to participate in China’s advancement, and boost China’s overall capacity for innovation. It will also enable foreign talents to share the opportunities presented by China’s development, give full play to their talents, and achieve a successful career.
