各位阁下,

女生们、先生们:

值此中国人民解放军建军94周年暨中国参加联合国维和行动31周年之际,我谨向中方致以最良好的祝愿。

非常感谢中国在和平与安全领域对联合国工作的支持,特别是为联合国维和事业所作出的贡献。目前中国共有近2500名维和军人与维和警察参加8项联合国维和任务,在马里、刚果(金)、黎巴嫩和南苏丹等重要而复杂的任务区作出了突出贡献。作为联合国安理会常任理事国和联合国维和行动第二大出资国,中国在维和领域提供的多方面支持至关重要。我们特别感谢中国对执行任务的维和人员给予的支持,推动落实“以行动促维和倡议”。维和人员的安全是我们的重中之重,他们在充满挑战的环境下执行复杂的维和任务。感谢中国为确保维和人员安全给予的支持。当然,也感谢中国向维和人员提供疫苗。此外,我们对中国在保护平民、社区外联以及维和医疗、工程等重要领域所作的贡献表示赞赏。中国维和人员表现优异,帮助联合国提升了维和行动整体质效。

值此重要时刻,我谨向在联合国旗帜下服务期间牺牲的20名中国维和人员致敬,包括去年牺牲的两名官兵。深切感谢他们为和平事业作出的牺牲与奉献。最后,再次向中方致以节日的良好祝愿,期待中国与联合国在维和领域继续保持紧密的伙伴关系,为了和平共同努力。

Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, I would like to express my best wishes on the occasion of the 94th anniversary of the founding of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army and the 31st anniversary of Chinese participation in UN peacekeeping operations.

We are very grateful for China’s support to the work of the United Nations in the field of peace and security, and in particular, its contribution to UN peacekeeping. With close to 2,500 women and men deployed in 8 peace operations, Chinese military and police personnel provided an outstanding contribution to peace efforts in important and complex situations such as Mali, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Lebanon and South Sudan. As a permanent member of the UN Security Council and the second financial contributor to the budget of peace operations, China’s support is essential and multifaceted. We are particularly grateful for China’s engagement to support peacekeepers in the field and to advance the Action for Peacekeeping initiative. Safety and security of peacekeepers is a priority for us as these women and men implement their complex mandate in challenging environments. We are grateful for China’s championing of the safety and security of the peacekeepers. And we are, of course, grateful for China’s support in the efforts to provide vaccination to peacekeepers. We also appreciate China’s commitment to the protection of civilians and to community outreach,as well as to key areas such as medicine and engineering. The performance of Chinese peacekeepers is highly commendable and it has contributed to high operational efficiency of our operations.

On this important occasion, I would also like to pay tribute to the 20 personnel from China who lost their lives while serving under the UN flag, including two who died last year. We are deeply grateful for the sacrifice and for the dedication to the cause of peace. Once again, I would like to address to you my best wishes for these important anniversaries, and I look forward to continuing the strong partnership between China and UN peacekeeping in the service of peace.
