Q6: The Syrian issue has garnered much global attention. What does China think should be done to resolve this issue? How do you assess Russia's role on this issue?
六、问：国际社会高度关注叙利亚问题，中方认为应该如何解决这一问题？您如何评价俄方在叙利亚问题上的作用？
Xi: The Syrian issue, now the most complicated and intractable hotspot in the Middle East, has inflicted untold hardships on the Syrian people and posed a grave challenge to regional and global peace and stability.
答：叙利亚问题是当前中东最为复杂难解的热点问题，给叙利亚人民带来了深重苦难，也给地区和世界和平稳定带来严峻挑战。
China's position on the issue is consistent. We maintain that the sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity of Syria should be upheld and respected, that the future of Syria should be decided by the Syrian people on their own, and that political settlement is the only viable way out. It is our sincere hope that the Syrian issue will be properly resolved as soon as possible, and that the Syrian people will regain long-hoped peace, return to their homeland and start reconstruction at an early date.
在叙利亚问题上，中方的立场是一贯的，主张叙利亚主权独立、领土完整应当得到维护和尊重，叙利亚国家未来应该由叙利亚人民自主决定，认为政治解决是叙利亚问题的唯一现实出路。我们真诚希望叙利亚问题尽快得到妥善解决，希望叙利亚人民企盼和平的愿望早日实现，能够重返并重建家园。
Recent months have seen some positive developments on the Syrian issue. At the Astana talks, an MOU was signed on creating de-escalation zones in Syria. The UN-brokered Geneva peace talks continue to move forward. China believes that, under the current circumstances, the international community needs to lock in the hard-won momentum of political settlement, support the United Nations in playing its role as the main channel for mediation and encourage the Syrian government and the opposition to engage in consultation with good faith and patience for a political solution that accommodates the legitimate concerns of all sides. There is also need for various parties to enhance coordination for greater synergy in fighting terrorism within Syria under international law.
近来，叙利亚问题出现积极势头。有关各方在阿斯塔纳对话会上签署备忘录，同意在叙利亚设立冲突降级区。联合国方面主持的日内瓦和谈持续推进。中方主张，当前形势下，国际社会要维护来之不易的叙利亚问题政治解决势头，支持联合国继续发挥斡旋主渠道作用，推动叙利亚政府和反对派展现诚意、耐心协商，努力达成兼顾各方合理关切的政治解决方案。有关各方还应该加强协调，形成合力，在国际法框架内有效打击叙利亚境内的恐怖主义。
