问：安理会4月25日举行了几内亚湾海盗问题公开会。中国作为4月安理会轮值主席，同非洲国家共同倡议就几内亚湾海盗问题举行公开会出于什么考虑？中方为解决该问题做了什么贡献？

Q: The Security Council had an open debate on the piracy issue in the Gulf of Guinea on April 25. China is the Security Council’s rotating president for this month. What is China’s consideration behind its joint proposal with African countries of holding an open debate on the piracy issue? What has China done for the settlement of the issue?

答：几内亚湾是重要国际航运通道和能源基地。近年几内亚湾海盗问题呈高发态势，严重威胁地区航运和经济安全，也对国际海上贸易通道和地区和平与安全构成严重威胁。国际社会、特别是联合国安理会应履行职责，维护几内亚湾海域安全。

A: The Gulf of Guinea is an important international sea-lane and energy base. We have seen an upsurge of piracy problems in the Gulf of Guinea over recent years which have posed severe threat to safety of navigation and economy in the region, the international passage for maritime trade, as well as peace and security of the region. The international community, the UN Security Council in particular, has the obligation to ensure that waters off the Gulf of Guinea are safe.

安理会曾于2011年和2012年召开几内亚湾海盗问题会议。此次中方同安哥拉及塞内加尔一道，共同倡议就该问题召开公开会，得到国际社会高度重视和积极响应。安理会还就几内亚湾海盗问题发表主席声明，积极回应几内亚湾沿岸和地区国家加强反海盗国际合作诉求，凝聚了打击几内亚湾海盗问题国际共识，为共同应对该问题提供了解决思路，并推动国际社会反海盗合作向更高水平、更深层次发展。

In 2011 and 2012, the Security Council convened meetings on the piracy issue in the Gulf of Guinea. This time, China’s joint proposal with Angola and Senegal of holding an open debate on this issue got positive response from the international community with great attention. The Security Council also issued a presidential statement which answered the call of coastal states of the Gulf of Guinea and countries in the region for international cooperation against piracy, built up international consensus on combating pirates in the Gulf of Guinea and shed light on how this issue could be resolved with joint efforts, bringing the international cooperation against piracy to a higher level.

中国秉持真实亲诚对非政策理念和正确义利观，积极参与打击几内亚湾海盗国际合作，为沿岸国维护正常海上交通秩序、加强基础设施等能力建设提供帮助。我们愿继续加强同非洲国家合作，为非洲经济社会发展构建良好安全环境。

In conducting China’s relations with Africa, we adhere to the principles of sincerity, practical results, affinity and good faith and uphold the values of friendship, justice and shared interests. We take an active part in international cooperation against pirates in the Gulf of Guinea and offer help to coastal states in their endeavor to maintain normal traffic order on the sea and enhance capacity building in infrastructure and other fields. We will continue to strengthen cooperation with African countries and create a sound security environment for the economic and social development of Africa.

He will attend the foreign ministers’ meeting of the Conference on Interaction and Confidence-Building Measures in Asia (CICA) and meet with Foreign Minister Wang Yi.

China is an important cooperative partner of South Sudan. Since the outbreak of domestic conflicts in South Sudan in 2013, China has been engaging constructively in the peace process of South Sudan, supporting African countries in resolving African problems through African means, and playing a major role in encouraging warring parties in South Sudan to sign a final peace deal.

我们衷心希望南苏丹各方继续共同努力，尽快组建过渡政府，加快推进重建进程，早日实现南苏丹和平、稳定、发展。中方愿同国际社会一道，继续为此发挥建设性作用。

China will continue to make constructive efforts to that end together with the international community.
