问：马哈蒂尔总理在离开北京前举行记者会时表示，因为国债问题，马来西亚决定取消东海岸铁路计划和两项油气管道计划。中方对此有何回应？
答：中方一贯本着互惠互利、合作共赢的原则同各国开展经贸和投资合作。中马经贸领域合作一直保持积极发展势头。马哈蒂尔总理本人访华期间也一直强调中国的发展对马来西亚是机遇，中国是马来西亚最大的贸易伙伴，中马经贸合作给两国人民带来了实实在在的利益。
当然，任何两个国家之间开展合作不可避免会出现一些问题，在不同时期也可能出现一些不同的看法。对于合作中出现的问题，应从两国友好和双边关系长远发展出发，通过友好协商妥善解决。我可以告诉你，这也是马哈蒂尔总理此次访华期间双方达成的重要共识。
Q: Before leaving Beijing, Prime Minister Mahathir held a press conference where he said that due to debt problems, Malaysia has decided to cancel the East Coast Rail Link plan and two gas pipeline projects for now. What is your response?
A: China pursues trade and investment cooperation with other countries under the principle of mutual benefit and win-win cooperation. China-Malaysia cooperation in these fields has been developing with a positive momentum. Prime Minister Mahathir has also been emphasizing throughout his stay in China that China's development is an opportunity for Malaysia, China is Malaysia's largest trading partner, and China-Malaysia economic and trade cooperation has brought tangible benefits to the two peoples.
Of course, cooperation between any two countries may lead to some problems, and different views may emerge at different times. These problems arising out of cooperation should be properly resolved through friendly consultations without losing sight of the friendship enjoyed by the two countries and the long-term development of bilateral ties, which, I can assure you, is also an important consensus reached during Prime Minister Mahathir's visit to China.
问：第一，台湾方面认为中国与萨尔瓦多建交与大陆“金元外交”有关。外交部发言人对此有何回应？第二，今年年初，王毅国务委员兼外长表示希望在中非合作论坛北京峰会期间拍一张中非“全家福”。这次斯威士兰是否将与会？
答：关于第一个问题，相信你已经关注到了今天上午王毅国务委员兼外长与卡斯塔内达外长共见记者的详细情况。按说对台湾岛内某些人的表态，应由中央政府主管部门作回应，不是外交部的职责。但就这一问题而言，我可以强调一下，中国和萨尔瓦多建立外交关系是政治决断，绝不是台湾方面某些人想象的所谓“交易筹码”。萨尔瓦多政府决定同中国建交，是出于对一个中国原则的认同，是一项政治决断，没有任何经济前提。中方高度赞赏萨方的立场。
Q: First, Taiwan believes that "money diplomacy" is at play behind the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and El Salvador. What is the response from the Foreign Ministry Spokesperson? Second, earlier this year, State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi expressed the hope that no country in Africa will be absent from the family photo of the FOCAC Beijing Summit. So, will Swaziland attend this summit?
A: Regarding the first question, I believe that you always know the details of the meeting between State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi and Foreign Minister Castaneda this morning. It is for the competent department of the central government to respond to the remarks made by those in Taiwan, not within the remit of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. That said, I still want to emphasize that the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and El Salvador is a political decision. It is by no means a so-called "bargaining chip" as imagined by some people in Taiwan. The Salvadoran government made the political decision to establish diplomatic relations with China without any economic preconditions because it identifies with the one-China principle. China highly appreciates this position of the Salvadoran side.
