　　双方一致认为，委内瑞拉问题只能由委内瑞拉朝野通过协商对话，以和平方式自主解决。这不仅符合委内瑞拉全体人民的利益，也是在捍卫不干涉内政这一国际关系基本准则。中古两国将与地区国家和国际社会加强沟通，继续为解决委内瑞拉问题发挥建设性作用。

　　问：据报道，美国财政部再次称中国等一些国家可能涉嫌操纵汇率。你对此有何评论？

They agree that the Venezuela issue can only be solved through peaceful, independent consultation and dialogue between the government and the opposition. That serves the interests of all Venezuelans and defends non-interference in domestic affairs, a basic norm of international relations. China and Cuba will strengthen communication with countries in the region and the international community to continue to play a constructive role in the settlement of this issue.

Q: The US Treasury Department has said again that countries including China are suspected as possible currency manipulators. I wonder if you have a comment on that?

　　答：我们注意到了美方发布的有关报告，报告中关于中国没有操纵汇率的结论符合基本常识与国际社会的共识。希望美国能够尊重客观事实，尊重市场规律，不要把汇率问题政治化。同时，我们多次建议美方按照有关多边国际规则办事，不要对他国汇率进行单边评估。一国是不是操纵汇率不是美国定的，有关多边国际机构对于各国汇率一直有权威的评估。

　　就中方而言，我们将坚定不移地深化汇率市场化改革，继续完善以市场供求为基础、参与一篮子货币进行调节、有管理的浮动汇率制度，保持人民币汇率在合理均衡水平上的基本稳定。

A: We note the US report. Its conclusion against labeling China a currency manipulator is consistent with common sense and the shared view of the international community. We hope the US will respect facts and market laws and not politicize exchange rates. We have repeatedly advised it to abide by multilateral rules and not conduct unilateral assessments of other countries' exchange rates. It is not for the US to say whether a country is manipulating its currency or not. Relevant multilateral institutions' exchange rate assessments are better authorities.

China will resolutely deepen market reform of the exchange rate regime, continue to improve the managed, floating regime based on market supply and demand and with reference to a basket of currencies, and keep the RMB exchange rate basically stable at an adaptive and equilibrium level.

　　问：明天是印度总理莫迪的就职仪式，请问谁会代表中方出席？
