中非关系30年:撬动中国与外部世界关系结构的支点

Thirty Years of Sino-African Relations:A Pivot in Reshaping the Structure of China's Relations with the Outside World

在中国改革开放30年的对外关系进程中,中国与非洲国家关系的变革与发展不仅生动地展示了中国对外关系的巨大进步,更呈现着中国外交面向新世界的鲜明个性与活力。在西方主导的旧有世界体系中被边缘化的非洲,却在中国外交领域一直占据着一个核心的位置。许多时候,中非关系都是撬动中国与外部世界关系结构的一个支点,其对当代中国外交环境的改善与国际地位的提升,实有不可替代之作用。30年来,中非关系所构建的发展中国家相互尊重、平等相待的国际关系新准则以及极富成效的南南合作新模式,均为人类在这个动荡不定的世界上重塑未来,带来了更多的希望与信心。

The transformation and development of Sino-African relations has shown the great achievements in China's foreign relations since the country adopted the reform and opening-up policy thirty years ago.Though peripheralized in the old,West-dominated world system,Africa maintains a core place in China's foreign relations.In many times,Sino-African relations have been a pivot in China's relations with the outside world,playing an irreplaceable role in improving contemporary China's diplomatic environment and boosting its international standing.The new principles of international relations such as mutual respect and equal treatment among developing countries,and the successful South-South cooperation model cultivated in Sino-African relations have generated more hope and confidence for the future of human race in this unstable world.
