主席女士，各位同事：

Madam Chair,Dear Colleagues,

首先，请允许我代表中国代表团，对东道国立陶宛的周到安排表示感谢。

First of all, on behalf of the Chinese delegation, please allow me to express heartfelt thanks to the host state Lithuania for its thoughtful arrangements.

自2010年以来，在所有成员国的共同努力下，核安全峰会进程取得积极成果。国际核安全共识不断凝聚，全球核安全水平显著提高。同时，核安全仍是各国发展核能事业所需应对的重要课题，需要持续的国际努力。在此背景下，明年核安全峰会具有重要意义。

Since 2010, thanks to the joint efforts of all participating states, the Nuclear Security Summit process has yielded fruitful results. International consensus on nuclear security is growing, and global nuclear security capability has been strengthened remarkably. Meanwhile, enhancing nuclear security remains an important task in the course of nuclear energy development of all nations, and therefore needs continuous and sustainable global efforts in this regard. In this context,the Nuclear Security Summit 2016 will be of great significance.

主席女士，

Madam Chair,

中方高兴地看到，通过前两次筹备会以及各工作组的磋商，峰会筹备取得了积极进展。我愿与大家分享对下步工作的几点看法：

China is happy to see that, after the first two Sherpa Meetings and the consultations by the drafting groups, the preparatory work of this summit has made a lot of progress. I would like to make the following points on our future work:

第一，聚焦主题，加强布局。要着眼构建公平、开放、合作、共赢的国际核安全体系，坚持以各国为主体，以国际合作为纽带，充分发挥国际原子能机构的核心作用，将全球核安全进程纳入可持续、机制化的轨道。

First, we should focus on the theme and make overall plans for the summit. With the vision of shaping an international nuclear security architecture featuring emphasize the primary responsibilities of all states, enhance international cooperation, give full play to the core role of the International Atomic Energy Agency, and bring the global nuclear security process onto the track of sustainable and institutionalized development.
