I am very pleased to represent,
for the first time as Secretary of State, the United States at this East Asia
Summit Ministerial. Allow me to express my appreciation to His Majesty, the
Sultan, and the entire nation of Brunei for their warm hospitality. President
Obama looks forward to traveling here in October to attend the EAS Leaders
Summit.
我非常高兴第一次以国务卿身份代表美国出席东亚峰会部长级会议。请允许我对苏丹陛下和文莱全体人民的热情款待表示感谢。欧巴马总统期待10月份来文莱访问，出席东亚峰会领导人峰会。
The Asia-Pacific region is
enjoying an almost unparalleled period of peace, prosperity, and stability.
亚太地区正处于一个几乎无可比拟的和平、繁荣与稳定时期。
This region has increasingly
become the envy of the rest of the world.
这一地区越来越受到世界其他地区的羡慕。
The key to sustaining and
advancing this success has been our common efforts to establish norms and
institutions that encourage greater cooperation and resolve disputes when they
arise – and to do so in a manner that respects the rights of the people. As a
Pacific nation, the United States has an enduring interest in maintaining peace
and prosperity across this entire region.
维持和推进这一成功的关键是，我们一直共同努力，建立鼓励扩大合作和解决纠纷的规范制度——而且我们在以尊重人民权利的方式这样做。作为一个太平洋国家，维护整个亚太地区的和平与繁荣始终是美国持久的利益所在。
The United States firmly believes
that regional institutions such as the EAS should play a lead role in shaping
the future of the Asia-Pacific. We support the East Asia Summit as the region’s
primary institution for political and strategic issues.
美国坚定地认为，诸如东亚峰会等区域性机制应该在塑造亚太地区未来的过程中发挥主导作用。我们支持东亚峰会作为处理亚太地区政治和战略议题的主要机制。
The East Asia Summit, like any
institution, is most effective when it produces concrete results for the people
of the region. So today I’d like to talk about four of the key pressing
challenges facing the region today where we need to produce results: on maritime
security, disaster relief, nonproliferation, and our moral responsibility to
address climate change.
东亚峰会和任何机制一样，在为本地区人民带来具体成果时最有效。因此今天，我想谈谈要在这一地区取得成果所面临的四项关键的紧迫挑战：海上安全、救灾、不扩散以及我们应对气候变化的道德责任。
And though we discussed the South
China Sea earlier today, I’d like to restate my concern over the increase over
the past year in maritime incidents and tensions in disputed waters.
虽然我们在今天早些时候讨论了南中国海问题，但我想重申我对过去一年中在有争议的水域的海上事件增多和紧张局势加剧的担忧。
We all have a vital interest in
the peaceful management of maritime disputes, and we believe the EAS can serve
a key role in setting and enforcing norms and rules that will ensure we are
working collectively to protect the regional peace and stability that our
economic future depends on.
我们大家对和平处理海洋争端都有着切身利益，我们认为东亚峰会在建立和执行规范和规则方面能起到关键作用，这些规范规则将确保我们通过共同努力来保护为我们的经济未来所依赖的地区和平与稳定。
American has long been committed
to easing the challenges, the personal suffering caused by disasters and to
help facilitate recovery. However, effective international coordination is vital
when natural disasters strike. Promoting the exchange of expertise and removing
barriers to the deployment of supplies and first responders saves lives. That
calls for coordinated mechanisms to ensure that this goodwill can be translated
quickly into practical assistance on the ground.
美国人长期以来致力于缓解这些问题，减轻灾害造成的人身痛苦，以及帮助促进灾后恢复。然而，当自然灾害降临时，有效的国际协作至关重要。促进专长经验交流并消除调配物资和应急人员的障碍可以挽救生命。这要求形成协调机制来确保这种善意可以迅速转化为给当地的切实援助。
Third, let me say a word about
non-proliferation. As President Obama reaffirmed last month in Berlin, peace
with justice means pursuing the security of a world without nuclear weapons.
The United States remains committed to that goal, and will work with our
partners to reduce the number of nuclear weapons. We will also work toward a
new international framework for peaceful nuclear power, and work to ratify the
Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty.
第三，让我简要谈谈不扩散。欧巴马总统上个月在柏林重申，公正的和平意味着争取实现一个没有核武器的安全世界。美国继续致力于这一目标，并将同我们的合作伙伴一道，削减核武器的数量。我们还将努力促成一个新的和平利用核能的国际框架，并且致力于使《全面禁止核试验条约》得到批准。
In no uncertain terms, we also
reject North Korea’s and Iran’s pursuit of nuclear weapons and will work to
enforce the international nonproliferation system.
我们也明确抵制北韩和伊朗谋求核武器，并将努力贯彻国际不扩散制度。
We recognize that many of you are
making very serious efforts to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons and
promote peaceful use of nuclear energy, and we hope that all EAS members will
fully embrace the available tools in the fight against proliferation –
including endorsing PSI principles and bringing into force the Additional
Protocol to your IAEA Safeguards Agreement.
我们认识到你们许多人正在非常认真地为防止核武器扩散及促进和平利用核能而努力，我们希望所有东亚峰会成员国将全力拥护防止核武器扩散的现有措施——包括同意“防扩散安全倡议”的原则，并落实你们的《国际原子能机构保障协定》附加议定书。 |
