中华人民共和国主席　习近平

Special Address by H.E. Xi Jinping President of the People’s Republic of China

尊敬的施瓦布主席，

女士们，先生们，朋友们：

Professor Klaus Schwab,

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Friends,

大家好！很高兴出席世界经济论坛视频会议。

Greetings to you all! It is my pleasure to attend this virtual session of the World Economic Forum.

再过两周，中国农历虎年新春就要到来。在中国文化中，虎是勇敢和力量的象征，中国人常说生龙活虎、龙腾虎跃。面对当前人类面临的严峻挑战，我们要如虎添翼、虎虎生威，勇敢战胜前进道路上各种险阻，全力扫除新冠肺炎疫情阴霾，全力促进经济社会恢复发展，让希望的阳光照亮人类！

In two weeks’time, China will celebrate the advent of spring in the lunar new year, the Year of the Tiger. In Chinese culture, tiger symbolizes bravery and strength,as the Chinese people often refer to spirited dragon and dynamic tiger,orsoaring dragon and leaping tiger. To meet the severe challenges facing humanity, we must “add wings to the tiger” and act with the courage and strength of the tiger to overcome all obstacles on our way forward. We must do everything necessary to clear the shadow of the pandemic and boost economic and social recovery and development, so that the sunshine of hope may light up the future of humanity.

当今世界正在经历百年未有之大变局。这场变局不限于一时一事、一国一域，而是深刻而宏阔的时代之变。时代之变和世纪疫情相互叠加，世界进入新的动荡变革期。如何战胜疫情？如何建设疫后世界？这是世界各国人民共同关心的重大问题，也是我们必须回答的紧迫的重大课题。

The world today is undergoing major changes unseen in a century. These changes, not limited to a particular moment, event, country or region, represent the profound and sweeping changes of our times. As changes of the times combine with the once-in-a-century pandemic, the world finds itself in a new period of turbulence and transformation. How to beat the pandemic and how to build the post-COVID world? These are majorissues of common concern to people around the world. They are also major, urgent questions we must give answers to.

“天下之势不盛则衰，天下之治不进则退。”世界总是在矛盾运动中发展的，没有矛盾就没有世界。纵观历史，人类正是在战胜一次次考验中成长、在克服一场场危机中发展。我们要在历史前进的逻辑中前进、在时代发展的潮流中发展。

As a Chinese saying goes, “The momentum of the world either flourishes or declines;the state of the world either progresses or regresses.” The world is always developing through the movement of contradictions; without contradiction, nothing would exist. The history of humanity is a history of achieving growth by meeting various tests and of developing by overcomingvarious crises. We need to move forward by following the logicof historical progress, and develop by riding the tide of development of our times.

不论风吹雨打，人类总是要向前走的。我们要善于从历史长周期比较分析中进行思考，又要善于从细微处洞察事物的变化，在危机中育新机、于变局中开新局，凝聚起战胜困难和挑战的强大力量。

Notwithstanding all vicissitudes, humanity will move on. We need tolearn from comparing long historycycles, and see the change in things through the subtle and minute. We need to foster new opportunities amidst crises,open up new horizons on a shifting landscape, and pool great strength to go through difficulties and challenges.

第一，携手合作，聚力战胜疫情。面对这场事关人类前途命运的世纪疫情，国际社会打响了一场顽强的阻击战。事实再次表明，在全球性危机的惊涛骇浪里，各国不是乘坐在190多条小船上，而是乘坐在一条命运与共的大船上。小船经不起风浪，巨舰才能顶住惊涛骇浪。在国际社会共同努力下，全球抗疫已经取得重要进展，但疫情反复延宕，病毒变异增多，传播速度加快，给人民生命安全和身体健康带来严重威胁，给世界经济发展带来深刻影响。

First, we need to embrace cooperation and jointly defeat the pandemic. Confronted by the once-in-a-century pandemic, which will affect the future of humanity, the international community has fought a tenacious battle. Facts have shown once again that amidst the raging torrents of a global crisis, countries are not riding separately in some 190 small boats, butare rather all in a giant ship on which our shared destiny hinges. Small boats may not survive a storm, but a giant ship is strong enough to brave a storm. Thanks to the concerted efforts of the international community, major progress has been made in the global fight against the pandemic. That said, the pandemic is proving a protracted one, resurging with more variants and spreading faster than before. It poses a serious threat to people’s safety and health, and exerts a profound impact on the global economy.

坚定信心、同舟共济，是战胜疫情的唯一正确道路。任何相互掣肘，任何无端“甩锅”，都会贻误战机、干扰大局。世界各国要加强国际抗疫合作，积极开展药物研发合作，共筑多重抗疫防线，加快建设人类卫生健康共同体。特别是要用好疫苗这个有力武器，确保疫苗公平分配，加快推进接种速度，弥合国际“免疫鸿沟”，把生命健康守护好、把人民生活保障好。

Strong confidence and cooperation represent the only right way to defeat the pandemic. Holding each other back or shifting blame would only cause needless delay in response and distract us from the overall objective. Countries need to strengthen international cooperation against COVID-19, carry out active cooperation on research and development ofmedicines, jointly build multiple lines of defense against the coronavirus, and speed up efforts to build a global community of health for all. Of particular importance is to fully leverage vaccines as a powerful weapon, ensure their equitable distribution, quicken vaccination and close the global immunization gap, so as to truly safeguard people’s lives, health and livelihoods.

中国言必信、行必果，已向120多个国家和国际组织提供超过20亿剂疫苗。中国将再向非洲国家提供10亿剂疫苗，其中6亿剂为无偿援助，还将无偿向东盟国家提供1.5亿剂疫苗。

China is a country that delivers on its promises. China has already sent over two billion doses of vaccines to more than 120 countries and international organizations. Still, China will provide another one billion doses to African countries, including 600 million doses as donation, and will also donate 150 million doses to ASEAN countries.

第二，化解各类风险，促进世界经济稳定复苏。世界经济正在走出低谷，但也面临诸多制约因素。全球产业链供应链紊乱、大宗商品价格持续上涨、能源供应紧张等风险相互交织，加剧了经济复苏进程的不确定性。全球低通胀环境发生明显变化，复合型通胀风险正在显现。如果主要经济体货币政策“急刹车”或“急转弯”，将产生严重负面外溢效应，给世界经济和金融稳定带来挑战，广大发展中国家将首当其冲。我们要探索常态化疫情防控条件下的经济增长新动能、社会生活新模式、人员往来新路径，推进跨境贸易便利化，保障产业链供应链安全畅通，推动世界经济复苏进程走稳走实。

Second, we need to resolve various risks and promote steady recovery of the world economy. The world economy is emerging from the depths, yet it still faces many constraints. The global industrial and supply chains have been disrupted. Commodity prices continue to rise. Energy supply remains tight. These risks compound one another and heighten the uncertainty about economic recovery. The global low inflation environment has notably changed, and the risks of inflation driven by multiple factors are surfacing. If major economies slam on the brakes or take a U-turn in their monetary policies, there would be serious negative spillovers. They would present challenges to global economic and financial stability, and developing countries would bear the brunt of it. In the context of ongoing COVID-19 response, we need to explore new drivers of economic growth, new modes of social life and new pathways for people-to-people exchange, in a bid to facilitate cross-border trade, keep industrial and supply chains secure and smooth, and promote steady and solid progress in global economic recovery.

经济全球化是时代潮流。大江奔腾向海，总会遇到逆流，但任何逆流都阻挡不了大江东去。动力助其前行，阻力促其强大。尽管出现了很多逆流、险滩，但经济全球化方向从未改变、也不会改变。世界各国要坚持真正的多边主义，坚持拆墙而不筑墙、开放而不隔绝、融合而不脱钩，推动构建开放型世界经济。要以公平正义为理念引领全球治理体系变革，维护以世界贸易组织为核心的多边贸易体制，在充分协商基础上，为人工智能、数字经济等打造各方普遍接受、行之有效的规则，为科技创新营造开放、公正、非歧视的有利环境，推动经济全球化朝着更加开放、包容、普惠、平衡、共赢的方向发展，让世界经济活力充分迸发出来。

Economic globalization is the trend of the times. Though countercurrents are sure to exist in a river, none could stop it from flowing to the sea. Driving forces bolster the river’s momentum, and resistance may yet enhance its flow. Despite the countercurrents and dangerous shoals along the way, economic globalization has never and will not veer off course. Countries around the world should uphold true multilateralism. We should remove barriers, not erect walls. We should open up, not close off. We should seek integration, not decoupling. This is the way to build an open world economy. We should guide reforms of the global governance system with the principle of fairness and justice, and uphold the multilateral trading system with the World Trade Organization at its center. We should make generally acceptable and effective rules for artificial intelligence and digital economy on the basis of full consultation, and create an open, just and non-discriminatory environment for scientific and technological innovation. This is the way to make economic globalization more open, inclusive, balanced and beneficial for all, and to fully unleash the vitality of the world economy.

现在，大家有一种共识，就是推动世界经济走出危机、实现复苏，必须加强宏观政策协调。主要经济体要树立共同体意识，强化系统观念，加强政策信息透明和共享，协调好财政、货币政策目标、力度、节奏，防止世界经济再次探底。主要发达国家要采取负责任的经济政策，把控好政策外溢效应，避免给发展中国家造成严重冲击。国际经济金融机构要发挥建设性作用，凝聚国际共识，增强政策协同，防范系统性风险。

A common understanding among us is that to turn the world economy from crisis to recovery, it is imperative to strengthen macro-policy coordination. Major economies should see the world as one community, think in a more systematic way, increase policy transparency and information sharing, and coordinate the objectives, intensity and pace of fiscal and monetary policies, so as to prevent the world economy from plummeting again. Major developed countries should adopt responsible economic policies, manage policy spillovers, and avoid severe impacts on developing countries. International economic and financial institutions should play their constructive role to pool global consensus, enhance policy synergy and prevent systemic risks.

第三，跨越发展鸿沟，重振全球发展事业。全球发展进程正在遭受严重冲击，南北差距、复苏分化、发展断层、技术鸿沟等问题更加突出。人类发展指数30年来首次下降，世界新增1亿多贫困人口，近8亿人生活在饥饿之中，粮食安全、教育、就业、医药卫生等民生领域面临更多困难。一些发展中国家因疫返贫、因疫生乱，发达国家也有很多人陷入生活困境。

Third, we need to bridge the development divide and revitalize global development. The process of global development is suffering from severe disruption, entailing more outstanding problems like a widening North-South gap, divergent recovery trajectories, development fault-lines and a technological divide. The Human Development Index has declined for the first time in 30 years. The world’s poor population has increased by more than 100 million. Nearly 800 million people live in hunger. Difficulties are mounting in food security, education, employment, medicine, health and other areas important to people’s livelihoods. Some developing countries have fallen back into poverty and instability due to the pandemic. Many in developed countries are also living through a hard time.

不论遇到什么困难，我们都要坚持以人民为中心的发展思想，把促进发展、保障民生置于全球宏观政策的突出位置，落实联合国2030年可持续发展议程，促进现有发展合作机制协同增效，促进全球均衡发展。我们要坚持共同但有区别的责任原则，在发展框架内推进应对气候变化国际合作，落实《联合国气候变化框架公约》第二十六次缔约方大会成果。发达经济体要率先履行减排责任，落实资金、技术支持承诺，为发展中国家应对气候变化、实现可持续发展创造必要条件。

No matter what difficulties may come our way, we must adhere to a people-centered philosophy of development, place development and livelihoods front and center in global macro-policies, realize the UN’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and build greater synergy among existing mechanisms of development cooperation to promote balanced development worldwide. We need to uphold the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities, promote international cooperation on climate change in the context of development, and implement the outcomes of COP26 to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. Developed economies should take the lead in honoring their emissions reduction responsibilities, deliver on their commitment of financial and technological support, and create the necessary conditions for developing countries to address climate change and achieve sustainable development.

去年，我在联合国大会上提出全球发展倡议，呼吁国际社会关注发展中国家面临的紧迫问题。这个倡议是向全世界开放的公共产品，旨在对接联合国2030年可持续发展议程，推动全球共同发展。中国愿同各方携手合作，共同推进倡议落地，努力不让任何一个国家掉队。

Last year, I put forward a Global Development Initiative at the UN General Assembly to draw international attention to the pressing challenges faced by developing countries. The Initiative is a public good open to the whole world, whichaims to form synergy with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and boost common development across the world. China stands ready to work with all partners to jointly translate the Initiative into concrete actions and make sure that no country is left behind in this process.

第四，摒弃冷战思维，实现和平共处、互利共赢。当今世界并不太平，煽动仇恨、偏见的言论不绝于耳，由此产生的种种围堵、打压甚至对抗对世界和平安全有百害而无一利。历史反复证明，对抗不仅于事无补，而且会带来灾难性后果。搞保护主义、单边主义，谁也保护不了，最终只会损人害己。搞霸权霸凌，更是逆历史潮流而动。国家之间难免存在矛盾和分歧，但搞你输我赢的零和博弈是无济于事的。任何执意打造“小院高墙”、“平行体系”的行径，任何热衷于搞排他性“小圈子”、“小集团”、分裂世界的行径，任何泛化国家安全概念、对其他国家经济科技发展进行遏制的行径，任何煽动意识形态对立、把经济科技问题政治化、武器化的行径，都严重削弱国际社会应对共同挑战的努力。

Fourth, we need to discard Cold War mentality and seek peaceful coexistence and win-win outcomes.Our world today is far from being tranquil; rhetoricsthat stoke hatred and prejudice abound. Acts of containment, suppression or confrontation arising thereof do all harm, not the least good, to world peace and security. History has proved time and again that confrontation does not solve problems; it only invites catastrophic consequences. Protectionism and unilateralism can protect no one; they ultimately hurt the interests of others as well as one’s own. Even worse are the practices of hegemony and bullying, which run counter to the tide of history.Naturally, countries have divergences and disagreements between them. Yet a zero-sum approach that enlarges one’s own gain at the expense of others will not help. Acts of single-mindedly building “exclusive yards with high walls” or “parallel systems”, of enthusiastically putting together exclusive small circles or blocs that polarize the world, ofoverstretching the concept of national security to hold back economic and technological advances of other countries,and of fanning ideological antagonism and politicizingor weaponizing economic, scientific and technological issues, will gravely undercutinternational efforts to tackle common challenges.

和平发展、合作共赢才是人间正道。不同国家、不同文明要在彼此尊重中共同发展、在求同存异中合作共赢。

The right way forward for humanity is peaceful development and win-win cooperation. Different countries and civilizations may prosper together on the basis of respect for each other, and seek common ground and win-win outcomesby setting aside differences.

我们要顺应历史大势，致力于稳定国际秩序，弘扬全人类共同价值，推动构建人类命运共同体。要坚持对话而不对抗、包容而不排他，反对一切形式的单边主义、保护主义，反对一切形式的霸权主义和强权政治。

We should follow the trend of history, work for a stable international order, advocate common values of humanity, andbuild a community with a shared future for mankind. We shouldchoose dialogue over confrontation, inclusiveness over exclusion, and stand against all forms of unilateralism, protectionism, hegemony or power politics.

女士们、先生们、朋友们！

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Friends,

去年是中国共产党成立一百周年。中国共产党团结带领中国人民长期艰苦奋斗，在国家建设发展和人民生活改善上取得举世瞩目的成就，如期实现了全面建成小康社会目标，如期打赢了脱贫攻坚战，历史性地解决了绝对贫困问题，现在踏上了全面建设社会主义现代化国家新征程。

Last year, the Communist Party of China (CPC) celebrated the 100th anniversary of its founding. Through a century of tenacious struggle, the CPC has rallied and led the Chinese people in accomplishing remarkable achievements in the advancement of the nation and betterment of people’s lives. We have realized a moderately prosperous society in all respects and won the battle against poverty, both according to plan, and found a historic solution to ending absolute poverty. Now, China is marching on a new journey of building a modern socialist country in all respects.

——中国将坚定不移推动高质量发展。中国经济总体发展势头良好，去年中国国内生产总值增长8%左右，实现了较高增长和较低通胀的双重目标。虽然受到国内外经济环境变化带来的巨大压力，但中国经济韧性强、潜力足、长期向好的基本面没有改变，我们对中国经济发展前途充满信心。

— China will stay committed to pursuing high-quality development. The Chinese economy enjoys a good momentum overall. Last year, our GDP grew by around eight percent, achieving the dual target of fairly high growth and relatively low inflation. Shifts in the domestic and international economic environment have brought tremendous pressure, but the fundamentals of the Chinese economy, characterized by strong resilience, enormous potential and long-term sustainability, remain unchanged. We have every confidence in the future of China’s economy.

“国之称富者，在乎丰民。”中国经济得到长足发展，人民生活水平大幅提高，但我们深知，满足人民对美好生活的向往还要进行长期艰苦的努力。中国明确提出要推动人的全面发展、全体人民共同富裕取得更为明显的实质性进展，将为此在各方面进行努力。中国要实现共同富裕，但不是搞平均主义，而是要先把“蛋糕”做大，然后通过合理的制度安排把“蛋糕”分好，水涨船高、各得其所，让发展成果更多更公平惠及全体人民。

“Thewealth of a countryis measured by the abundance of its people.”Thanks to considerable economic growth, the Chinese people are living much better lives. Nonetheless, we are soberly aware that to meet people’s aspiration for an even better life, we still have much hard work to do in the long run. China has made it clear that we strive for more visible and substantive progress in the well-rounded development of individuals and the common prosperity of the entire population. We are working hard on all fronts to deliver this goal. The common prosperity we desire is not egalitarianism. To use an analogy, we will first make the pie bigger, and then divide it properly through reasonable institutional arrangements. As a rising tide lifts all boats, everyone will get a fair share from development, and development gains will benefit all our people in a more substantial and equitable way.

——中国将坚定不移推进改革开放。中国改革开放永远在路上。不论国际形势发生什么变化，中国都将高举改革开放的旗帜。中国将继续使市场在资源配置中起决定性作用，更好发挥政府作用，毫不动摇巩固和发展公有制经济，毫不动摇鼓励、支持、引导非公有制经济发展。中国将建设统一开放、竞争有序的市场体系，确保所有企业在法律面前地位平等、在市场面前机会平等。中国欢迎各种资本在中国合法依规经营，为中国发展发挥积极作用。中国将继续扩大高水平对外开放，稳步拓展规则、管理、标准等制度型开放，落实外资企业国民待遇，推动共建“一带一路”高质量发展。区域全面经济伙伴关系协定已于今年1月1日正式生效，中国将忠实履行义务，深化同协定各方经贸联系。中国还将继续推进加入全面与进步跨太平洋伙伴关系协定和数字经济伙伴关系协定进程，进一步融入区域和世界经济，努力实现互利共赢。

— China will stay committed to reform and opening-up. ForChina, reform and opening-up is always a work in process. Whatever change in the international landscape, China will always hold high the banner of reform and opening-up. China will continue to let the market play a decisive role in resource allocation, and see to it that the government better plays its role. We will be steadfast in consolidating and developing the public sector, just as we are steadfast in encouraging, supporting and guiding the development of the non-public sector. We will build a unified, open, competitive and orderly market system, where allbusinessesenjoy equal status before the law and have equal opportunities in the marketplace. All types of capital are welcome to operate in China in compliance with laws and regulations, and play a positive role for the development of the country. China will continue to expand high-standard opening-up, steadily advance institutional opening-up that covers rules, management and standards, deliver national treatment for foreign businesses, and promote high-quality Belt and Road cooperation. With the entry into force of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (RCEP) on 1 January this year, China will faithfully fulfill its obligations and deepen economic and trade ties with other RCEP parties. China will also continue to work for the joining of the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) and the Digital Economy Partnership Agreement (DEPA), with a view to further integrating into the regional and global economy and achieving mutual benefit and win-win results.

——中国将坚定不移推进生态文明建设。我经常说，发展经济不能对资源和生态环境竭泽而渔，生态环境保护也不是舍弃经济发展而缘木求鱼。中国坚持绿水青山就是金山银山的理念，推动山水林田湖草沙一体化保护和系统治理，全力以赴推进生态文明建设，全力以赴加强污染防治，全力以赴改善人民生产生活环境。中国正在建设全世界最大的国家公园体系。中国去年成功承办联合国《生物多样性公约》第十五次缔约方大会，为推动建设清洁美丽的世界作出了贡献。

— China will stay committed to promoting ecological conservation. AsI have said many times, we should never grow the economy at the cost of resource depletion and environmental degradation, which is like draining a pond to get fish; nor should we sacrifice growth to protect the environment, which is like climbing a tree to catch fish. Guided by our philosophy that clean waters and green mountains are just as valuable as gold and silver, China has carried out holistic conservation and systematic governance of its mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes, grasslands and deserts. We do everything we can to conserve the ecological system, intensify pollution prevention and control, and improve the living and working environment for our people. China is now putting in place the world’s largest national parks system. Last year, we successfully hosted COP15 to the Convention on Biological Diversity, contributing China’s share to a clean and beautiful world.

实现碳达峰碳中和是中国高质量发展的内在要求，也是中国对国际社会的庄严承诺。中国将践信守诺、坚定推进，已发布《2030年前碳达峰行动方案》，还将陆续发布能源、工业、建筑等领域具体实施方案。中国已建成全球规模最大的碳市场和清洁发电体系，可再生能源装机容量超10亿千瓦，1亿千瓦大型风电光伏基地已有序开工建设。实现碳达峰碳中和，不可能毕其功于一役。中国将破立并举、稳扎稳打，在推进新能源可靠替代过程中逐步有序减少传统能源，确保经济社会平稳发展。中国将积极开展应对气候变化国际合作，共同推进经济社会发展全面绿色转型。

Achieving carbon peak and carbon neutrality are the intrinsic requirements of China’s own high-quality development and a solemn pledge to the international community. China will honor its word and keep working toward its goal. We have unveiled an Action Plan for Carbon Dioxide Peaking Before 2030, to be followed by implementation plans for specific sectors such as energy, industry and construction. China now has the world’s biggest carbon market andbiggest clean power generation system: the installed capacity of renewable energy has exceeded one billion kilowatts, and the construction of wind and photovoltaic power stations with a total installed capacity of 100 million kilowatts is well under way. Carbon peak and carbon neutrality cannot be realized overnight. Through solid and steady steps, China will pursue an orderly phase-downof traditional energy in the course of finding reliable substitution in new energy. This approach, which combines phasing out the old and bringing in the new, will ensure steady economic and social development. China will also actively engage in international cooperation on climate and jointly work for a complete transition to a greener economy and society.

女士们、先生们、朋友们！
