“一带一路”倡议同2030年议程高度契合，相辅相成，相互促进，共同推进国际发展合作事业。“一带一路”倡议和2030年议程理念相通，都以联合国宪章的宗旨和原则为基础，致力于维护多边主义，促进世界和平与发展。“一带一路”倡议坚持共商共建共享，倡导开放包容、互利共赢。2030年议程重视在全球层面推进国际发展合作，“一带一路”侧重于从区域到全球层面实现发展合作。2030年议程和“一带一路”将促进经济发展，提高人民生活水平作为最终目标。2030年议程强调各国坚持自主自愿原则，2030年议程和“一带一路”均强调尊重各国主权和发展权，倡导支持各国根据各自国情选择发展道路，是以合作共赢为核心的新型国际关系的具体体现。

　　各位来宾，各位同事，

The BRI and the 2030 Agenda resonate with and reinforce each other. Together, they promote the cause of international cooperation for development. The BRI and the 2030 Agenda have a shared philosophy. Anchored in the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, both are committed to multilateralism and international peace and development. The BRI follows an approach of extensive consultation, joint development and shared benefits, and advocates openness and inclusiveness. The 2030 Agenda underscores international cooperation for development, and the BRI calls for development cooperation from regional to global levels. They are both aimed at economic development and better lives for the people. The BRI is aligned with the 2030 Agenda which emphasizes voluntarism and respect for countries' sovereignty and right of development. Being supportive of countries' own choices of development paths in accordance with their national conditions, both the BRI and 2030 Agenda reflect the desire for a new type of international relations featuring win-win cooperation.
