新时代中俄关系背景下深化地方务实合作的问题与建议

Issues and Policy Recommendation for Deepening China-Russia Local Cooperation in the Context of China-Russia Relations in the New Era

2019年6月5日,中俄两国首脑在莫斯科共同签署《中华人民共和国和俄罗斯联邦关于发展新时代全面战略协作伙伴关系的联合声明》,其中特别指出要扩大中俄地方交流,持续深化地方间经贸合作,落实好《中俄在俄罗斯远东地区合作发展规划(2018-2024年)》,丰富中俄地方合作交流年成果。近年来,虽然中俄两国在共同推动贸易投资便利化、深化金融合作,以及加快更高水平产业合作等方面付出了诸多努力,在实践中也取得了一些新的进展,但相比两国在重大国际事务中的通力合作和高度的政治互信水平,中俄两国在经济领域的合作仍旧比较滞后,在地方务实合作中还面临着很多实际的问题。只有正视这些问题存在的根源,采取积极的应对措施,才能真正推动中俄地方务实合作迈入新的发展阶段。今后,两国除了注重加强地方人文交流与合作外,还要将农业合作、金融合作和高科技创新合作列为重点方向,共同推动两国地方务实合作结出更多硕果,助力完成两国领导人提出的经济合作战略目标。

2018 and 2019 mark the years of local cooperation and exchanges between China and Russia,which provides new opportunities for China’s strategy of revitalizing Northeast China and Russia’s strategy of looking eastward.There is huge potential for Chinese local enterprises to invest in Russia as well as China-Russia cooperation in the financial sector.The growing China-Russia humanitarian exchanges have also laid a solid foundation for local pragmatic cooperation.Although the willingness to carry out Sino-Russian local cooperation has been significantly promoted,the"China threat theory"that prevails in Russia,Russia’s poor investment and business environment,illegal activities of Chinese companies in the business with Russian counterparts and the uncertainty relating to whether China-Russian cooperation can keep a right direction are the major obstacles to local cooperation between China and Russia.In the future,both sides should make more effort in promoting investment in key areas,improving financial services and agricultural cooperation,enhancing investment in legal consulting and public information services and developing digital trade and transportation connectivity.The humanitarian exchanges should be also strengthened in order to consolidate the social foundation for China-Russia local cooperation.
