2016年正在向我们走来，在新的一年里，中国将主办二十国集团峰会。这既体现了国际社会对中国的高度信任，也展示了中国愿为国际社会作出贡献的真诚愿望。
The year of 2016 is fast approaching, a year in which China will host the G20 Summit. This shows both the international community's strong confidence in China and China's sincere wish to make contribution to the international community.
二十国集团峰会机制诞生于2008年国际金融危机最紧要的关头。当时，全体成员同心协力，努力营造世界经济企稳复苏的新局面，确立二十国集团作为国际经济合作主要论坛的地位。回顾这段历程，最珍贵的是各成员同舟共济的伙伴精神。实践昭示我们，在经济全球化深入发展的形势下，合作是各国应对挑战、实现发展的必然选择。
The G20 summit mechanism was set up at the height of the international financial crisis in 2008, demonstrating G20 members' determination to put the global economy back on its feet. The G20 thus became the premier forum for international economic cooperation. Looking back, I believe that the most valuable thing this process has created is the close partnership we have forged that has enabled us to jointly tide over a difficult time. It proves that in a world of deepening economic globalization, cooperation is the sure way for countries to meet challenges and achieve common development.
现在，世界经济和国际经济合作又走到一个重要转折点。能否夯实世界经济复苏和增长的基础、摆脱危机影响？能否把握科技进步和新工业革命的历史机遇、引领世界经济迈向新一轮增长？答案取决于我们的共同选择和共同行动。
Today, the global economy and international economic cooperation have reached another crucial juncture. Can we strengthen the foundation for global recovery and growth and leave the crisis behind us? Can we seize the historical opportunity presented by technological breakthroughs and a new industrial revolution and usher in a new round of global growth? The answer lies in the course of common action that we will take.
值此时刻，国际社会将目光投向二十国集团。作为发达国家和新兴市场国家及发展中国家开展合作的重要论坛，二十国集团在引领和推动国际经济合作方面具有举足轻重的影响，理应谋大势、做实事，推动解决世界经济的突出问题，为实现强劲、可持续、平衡增长目标而努力。
Now, all eyes are on the G20. As an important forum for cooperation among developed countries, emerging markets and developing countries, the G20 plays a key role in leading and advancing international economic cooperation. It should act with a broad vision and deliver concrete outcomes. It should address critical issues affecting the global economy and endeavor to promote strong, sustainable and balanced growth.
