尊敬的德蒙布里亚尔院长，女士们，先生们，朋友们，

Mr. Thierry de Montbrial, Executive Chairman of the IFRI, Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Friends,

大家好！很高兴再次来到美丽的巴黎，出席中法战略对话。昨天，我一到巴黎就同奥朗德总统和艾罗外长举行了会见，今天上午同奥朗德总统的外事顾问奥迪贝尔先生进行了坦诚深入、富有成效的磋商，就双边关系和重大国际、地区问题达成广泛共识。

Good afternoon. I am delighted to come back to this magnificent city for this year's China-France strategic dialogue. Yesterday, shortly after I arrived in Paris, I had meetings with President Hollande and Foreign Minister Ayrault. This morning, I had a candid, in-depth and productive discussion with Mr. Jacques Audibert, President Hollande's diplomatic advisor. We reached broad agreement on bilateral ties and major regional and international issues.

法国国际关系研究院是法国及欧洲最重要的智库之一。研究院和在座的各位专家学者在促进中法、中欧相互了解和理解方面做出了重要努力和贡献，我谨对你们表示诚挚的敬意和感谢！

The French Institute of International Relations is a leading think tank in France and in Europe as a whole. This institute and all of you present today have made important contribution to the mutual understanding between China and Europe in general and between China and France in particular. Let me salute you and thank you for your worthy efforts.

6年前，我曾到访过贵院。当时，国际金融危机仍在发酵，欧债问题持续蔓延，世界经济面临深度衰退危险。中国经济率先回升向好，中欧发出了同舟共济、共克时艰的积极信号，加强了深化互信、平等互利的战略合作。

I last visited the IFRI six years ago, at a time of deepening global financial crisis and worsening debt problem in this part of the world. The world economy was on the brink of a deep recession. Against that backdrop, the Chinese economy was among the first to turn around, and together, China and Europe sent a powerful message of jointly tiding over the difficult times and pledged to strengthen strategic cooperation based on deepening trust, equality and mutual benefit.
