问：澳大利亚政府已暗示毕晓普外长访华的几个日期，你预计中方将于何时回复澳方，此访将于何时成行？中方对澳总理访华持何态度？是否欢迎其近期访华？

Q: The Australian government has suggested some dates for Foreign Minister Julie Bishop to come to visit China. When will China give a reply to the Australian government and when will this visit happen? And what about the Chinese government's attitude towards receiving a visit by the Australian Prime Minister? Would China welcome a visit by the Australian Prime Minister sometime soon?

A: The timetable for mutual visits between two countries will have to be nailed down through consultations. You asked about a specific date. I have no information on that.

China would like to conduct exchanges and cooperation with all other countries on the basis of equal treatment and mutual respect.

　　问：美国第一次向中方通报美驻广州总领馆雇员受到所谓声波影响的问题后，中方进行了何种调查？如美方向中方通报最新一次调回雇员的相关情况，中方是否会进行进一步调查？ 

　　答：我可以向你提供的信息是，中方已经以非常负责任的方式，对前段美国驻华使领馆雇员疑似受到所谓声波影响的问题进行了调查，但是未发现任何导致美方所说情况的原因或者线索。相关情况中方已向美方作出反馈。 

　　关于媒体报道出来的最新情况，我刚才已经指出，据我了解，美方尚未向中方提出相关要求。如美方与我们进行正式沟通，中方自然会继续以负责任和认真的态度进行必要调查，并就此与美方密切沟通和配合。

Q: Can you give us some idea as to what kind of probe or investigation China did when the United States made the first notification to China about the problems with the sonic waves in Guangzhou? Do you anticipate doing more of an investigation presumably after the US informs you of the latest development? 

A: What I can tell you is that China has very responsibly investigated the issue that a US diplomatic employee in China was allegedly affected by the so-called sonic waves. However, we have found no reason or clue that would lead to the situation reported by the US side. We have made feedback to the US side on this issue. 

As to the latest development reported by the media, like I pointed out just now, the US side has not made any request to the Chinese side. If the US side officially informs us of the latest case, China will carry out necessary investigations in the same responsible and earnest manner and remain in close communication and coordination with the US side.
