一是以命运共同体为处理国际关系的共同目标。过去500多年来，无论是殖民主义、帝国主义还是霸权主义，都带来对立与分裂，制造动荡与冲突，人类社会为此付出沉重代价。构建以合作共赢为核心的新型国际关系思想在洞察国际形势和世界格局发展大势的基础上，对人类社会前进方向作出前瞻性思考，提出打造人类命运共同体的"五位一体"总布局和总路径，倡导"建立平等相待、互商互谅的伙伴关系，营造公道正义、共建共享的安全格局，谋求开放创新、包容互惠的发展前景，促进和而不同、兼收并蓄的文明交流，构筑尊崇自然、绿色发展的生态体系"。这展现了中国同各国同呼吸、共命运的世界情怀和大国担当，为国际社会实现持久和平与共同繁荣开辟了新前景。

First, it is a vision that takes a community of shared future as the common goal in handling international relations. Over the past five centuries and more, colonialism, imperialism and hegemonism have all led to confrontation, division, turmoil and conflict, for which mankind has paid a huge price. The vision on building a new type of international relations featuring win-win cooperation, based on insightful observations of the world's situation and the evolution of the international landscape, is a forward-looking thinking on the future direction for the human society. It features an overall plan and roadmap for achieving a community of shared future in five dimensions, namely, a partnership of equality and mutual accommodation, a security structure of justice, joint contribution and shared benefits, a development prospect of openness, innovation, inclusiveness and reciprocity, inter-civilization exchanges that uphold unity without uniformity, and an ecological system that respects nature and nurtures green development. It is a vision that reflects China's keen sense of responsibility for the world as a major country to share weal and woe with other countries and opens up new prospects of enduring peace and prosperity for the whole world.

二是以共同利益为处理国际关系的重要基础。当今世界，各国相互联系、相互依存、利益交融不断深化，共同营造和平稳定环境、谋求共同发展繁荣的现实需求和政治意愿也日益增强。构建以合作共赢为核心的新型国际关系思想用整体而不是割裂的眼光看待和处理国际关系，倡导各国在维护本国利益的同时，将维护和促进人类共同利益作为看待和处理国际关系的重要出发点，强调"计利当计天下利"，主张各国在求同存异的基础上相互尊重、平等相待，不断凝聚和扩大共同利益，实现不同社会制度、不同发展道路、不同文化传统国家和平共处、和谐共生。这把握了时代脉搏，为国际关系长期、稳定、健康发展打下坚实基础。

Second, it is a vision that takes common interests as the important foundation for handling international relations. In today's world, countries are increasingly inter-connected and inter-dependent with their interests more closely inter-woven. To create a peaceful and stable environment and pursue common development and prosperity reflects a rising need and represents a growing political will. The vision to build a new type of international relations featuring win-win cooperation views and handles international relations from a holistic instead of piecemeal approach, and encourages countries to protect and promote the common interests of mankind while safeguarding their own interests and takes it as an important premise in viewing and handling international relations. The vision highlights the importance of common interests of mankind, and maintains that countries should respect each other and treat each other as equals on the basis of shelving differences and seeking common ground, and that they should work to build and expand shared interests, so as to achieve peaceful and harmonious co-existence of countries despite their differences in social systems, development paths and cultural traditions. This is a vision that responds to the trend of the times and thus lays a solid foundation for sustained, steady and sound development of international relations.
