吳謙：4月16日晚，國防部長董軍與美國國防部長奧斯汀視頻通話，雙方圍繞中美兩國兩軍關(guān)系、臺灣問題、南海問題及其他共同關(guān)心的國際地區(qū)熱點問題坦誠深入地交換了意見，取得了積極務(wù)實的成果。此次通話是軍事領(lǐng)域落實兩國元首共識的重要舉措，對于保持兩軍關(guān)系總體穩(wěn)定具有積極意義。
Wu Qian: Chinese Defense Minister Admiral Dong Jun had a video call with US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin on the evening of April 16. The two sides had a candid and in-depth exchange of views on China-US state-to-state and military-to-military relations, the Taiwan question, the South China Sea issue and other international hotspot issues of common interest, and achieved positive and practical outcomes. This call is an important step by the two militaries in implementing the consensus reached by the two heads of state and bears positive significance in maintaining the overall stability of bilateral military ties.
去年底以來，兩軍順利舉行一系列交流合作活動，為推動兩軍關(guān)系穩(wěn)下來、好起來發(fā)揮了積極作用。希望美方與中方相向而行，把以和為貴、以穩(wěn)為重、以信為本作為兩軍交往的基本遵循，在平等和尊重基礎(chǔ)上，構(gòu)建不沖突不對抗、開放務(wù)實合作、逐步積累互信的兩軍關(guān)系，真正當(dāng)好兩國關(guān)系發(fā)展的穩(wěn)定基石。
Since the end of last year, the two militaries have conducted a series of exchanges and cooperation, which plays a positive role in stabilizing and improving the relationship. We hope the US side will work with us in the same direction, value peace, stability and trust as the basic principles of exchanges, and, on the basis of equality and respect, build a military-to-military relationship featuring no conflict, no confrontation, open and pragmatic cooperation and gradual accumulation of mutual trust, so as to truly serve as a stabilizer of bilateral relations.
