President Xi Jinping's speech clearly came at a time — after Brexit and the election of Donald Trump — when much of the world was looking for leadership on the global issues of trade, climate and development and a more optimistic view of the opportunities coming from globalization.

在英国宣布脱欧及特朗普当选之后，全世界都在寻找全球贸易、气候和发展问题上的引领力量，并寻求经济全球化的积极态度，习近平主席的讲话恰逢其时地出现了。

The Belt and Road Initiative is clearly a bold and open vision for global development. In my view, it has been kept intentionally broad and flexible to encourage initiative at various levels in the Chinese economy, but also in the many countries covered by the vision.

“一带一路”倡议明确地为全球发展提供了一个宏伟而开放的愿景。在我看来，该倡议一直保持着广泛性和灵活性，这不仅对中国经济的各个层面有促进作用，对该倡议下的其他国家也同样如此。

President Xi Jinping's statements, a year on, continue to be an important stage-setter for the argument that international trade must continue to flow openly and freely. China's role continues to be central to this year's World Economic Forum meeting.

习近平主席一年前的讲话，为倡导国际贸易开放自由的言论提供了一方舞台。在今年的世界经济论坛中，中国将继续扮演重要的角色。

Issues of shared human values, economic integration and engagement with international crises, whether in the Middle East, South Asia or elsewhere, continue to be central global concerns, and China's attitude toward these questions is crucial.

无论是在中东，南亚还是其他地区，有关人类共同价值观，经济一体化和国际危机交涉等议题都将是全球持续关注的重点，而中国对这些问题的态度则十分的重要。

Nations are not thinking of just building infrastructure for themselves but for them and their neighbors. The world cannot do it on a national basis anymore. That is what they take from President Xi's words. 

很多国家不再只想着发展本国的基础设施，而是还要帮助邻国发展，世界是个整体，每个国家不应再各自为营。而这一切，是他们从习主席的讲话中学习到的。

The effect of his words and ideas may take five to ten years to take hold and change centuries of using conflict to enable countries to achieve benefits at the expense of others.

习主席的讲话内容和思想会在5到10年内落地生根，并将改变数世纪以来，国家间以牺牲他国利益为代价换取自身发展的局面。

经济全球化不是潘多拉的盒子

有一种观点把世界乱象归咎于经济全球化。经济全球化曾经被人们视为阿里巴巴的山洞，现在又被不少人看作潘多拉的盒子。

Some blame economic globalization for the chaos in the world. Economic globalization was once viewed as the treasure cave found by Ali Baba in The Arabian Nights, but it has now become the Pandora's box in the eyes of many.

世界经济的大海，你要还是不要，都在那儿

中国经济要发展，就要敢于到世界市场的汪洋大海中去游泳，如果永远不敢到大海中去经风雨、见世面，总有一天会在大海中溺水而亡。

To grow its economy, China must have the courage to swim in the vast ocean of the global market. If one is always afraid of bracing the storm and exploring the new world, he will sooner or later get drowned in the ocean. 

所以，中国勇敢迈向了世界市场。在这个过程中，我们呛过水，遇到过漩涡，遇到过风浪，但我们在游泳中学会了游泳。这是正确的战略抉择。

Therefore, China took a brave step to embrace the global market. We have had our fair share of choking in the water and encountered whirlpools and choppy waves, but we have learned how to swim in this process. It has proved to be a right strategic choice.

世界经济的大海，你要还是不要，都在那儿，是回避不了的。想人为切断各国经济的资金流、技术流、产品流、产业流、人员流，让世界经济的大海退回到一个一个孤立的小湖泊、小河流，是不可能的，也是不符合历史潮流的。

Whether you like it or not, the global economy is the big ocean that you cannot escape from. Any attempt to cut off the flow of capital, technologies, products, industries and people between economies, and channel the waters in the ocean back into isolated lakes and creeks is simply not possible. Indeed, it runs counter to the historical trend.

搞保护主义如同把自己关进黑屋子，看似躲过了风吹雨打，但也隔绝了阳光和空气。打贸易战的结果只能是两败俱伤。 

Pursuing protectionism is like locking oneself in a dark room. While wind and rain may be kept outside, that dark room will also block light and air. No one will emerge as a winner in a trade war.
