妥善应对地缘风险推动“一带一路”建设

Properly Addressing Geopolitical Challenges and Promoting the Belt and Road Initiatives

地缘环境或地缘条件是区域合作、国际合作的重要约束因素。区域一体化与全球化没有也难以消除地缘矛盾和冲突。"一带一路"倡议是中国提出的一个世纪性宏大对外合作构想,涉及到数十个国家的参与,难免受到各种错综复杂的地缘因素的影响、其中不乏地缘矛盾与风险的冲击。高度重视、妥善处置"一带一路"倡议引发的外部地缘冲击与"战略反应"关系到"一带一路"倡议能否成功推进,因而对"一带一路"涉及的地缘因素与风险应加以全面分析、区别对待、因势利导,尽量减少摩擦成本和风险,重塑地缘环境,以稳健推进以五通为基本内容的"一带一路"建设大业。

Geographical environment and geographical conditions are significant factors affecting regional and international cooperation. Regional integration and globalization have not eliminated geopolitical contradictions and conflicts, nor can they.The Belt and Road Initiatives proposed by China is a grand international blueprint for cooperation which may affect the world for the centuries to come. The initiative, which involves the participation of scores of countries, will no doubt be affected by various complicated geopolitical factors, including the impacts of geopolitical conflicts and risks. China should pay great attention to and properly address the geopolitical risks faced by the initiative as well as the external geopolitical impacts of and 'strategic responses' to these geopolitical conflicts. Properly addressing these geopolitical challenges is vital to the successful promotion of the Belt and Road Initiatives. China should comprehensively analyze and discriminate various geopolitical factors and risks affecting the Belt and Road Initiatives. All these factors and risks should be guided toward the direction in the light of their general trend. China should reshape the geopolitical environment and reduce the costs of friction, steadily promoting the Belt and Road Initiatives which focuses on five areas of connectivity.
