China and the United States should, and are entirely capable of, achieving mutual benefit and win-win outcomes through practical cooperation, helping each other succeed through healthy competition, properly managing differences while seeking common ground, and building peace by accumulating mutual trust, so that the constructive China-US relationship of strategic stability better benefits the people of both countries and the people of the world.

中美两国应当也完全可以在务实合作中互利共赢，在良性竞争中彼此成就，在求同存异中妥处分歧，在累积互信中构筑和平，让中美建设性战略稳定关系更好惠及两国人民和世界各国人民

From September 23 to 25, President Xi Jinping paid a state visit to the United States at the invitation of US President Donald Trump. It was a journey to carry forward friendship, expand cooperation, and improve the well-being of the people of both countries. The two presidents held candid and in-depth discussions on major issues bearing on bilateral relations and the world situation, reached many new understandings, enriched the substance of the constructive China-US relationship of strategic stability, and provided new strategic guidance for China-US relations. The international community generally believes that the presidents’ Washington meeting “sent a signal of certainty to the world,” benefiting the people of both countries and bringing fresh hope for world peace and development.

9月23日至25日，习近平主席应美国总统特朗普邀请对美国进行国事访问。这是一次传承友谊之旅、拓展合作之旅、增进两国人民福祉之旅。两国元首就关乎两国关系和世界局势的重大问题坦诚深入交流，达成很多新的共识，丰富了中美建设性战略稳定关系的内涵，为中美关系提供了新的战略指引。国际社会普遍认为中美元首华盛顿会晤“向世界释放了确定性信号”，不仅有利于增进两国人民福祉，更为世界和平发展增添了希望。

The presidents of China and the United States have exchanged visits in less than half a year, something unprecedented in the history of bilateral relations. President Xi Jinping and President Trump have known each other for a long time and respect each other; this has become the most valuable strategic asset in China-US relations. Over the past year and more, the two presidents have kept in touch through various channels, jointly steering the great ship of China-US relations. This May, President Trump made a successful visit to China, and the two presidents agreed to build a constructive China-US relationship of strategic stability. This new characterization reflects the reality of China-US relations and expectations for the future. It is an important step toward finding the right way for the two countries to get along and has been widely welcomed by their peoples and the international community. During this visit to the United States, President Xi Jinping said that “we must turn this vision into action,” making clear that China and the United States should, and are entirely capable of, achieving mutual benefit and win-win outcomes through practical cooperation, helping each other succeed through healthy competition, properly managing differences while seeking common ground, and building peace by accumulating mutual trust, so that the constructive China-US relationship of strategic stability better benefits the people of both countries and the people of the world. This important statement sets out a path for turning the constructive China-US relationship of strategic stability from a vision into action and injects new momentum into the long-term development of bilateral relations.

中美两国元首在不到半年时间里实现互访，在两国关系史上是前所未有的。习近平主席与特朗普总统长期交往、彼此尊重，成为中美关系最宝贵的战略资产。过去一年多来，两国元首通过各种方式保持沟通，共同为中美关系这艘大船领航掌舵。今年5月，特朗普总统成功访华，两国元首一致同意构建中美建设性战略稳定关系。这一新定位反映了中美关系的现实，也体现了对未来的期许，是迈向两国正确相处之道的重要一步，受到两国人民和国际社会广泛欢迎。此次访美期间，习近平主席指出“要把这一愿景转化为行动”，明确中美两国应当也完全可以在务实合作中互利共赢，在良性竞争中彼此成就，在求同存异中妥处分歧，在累积互信中构筑和平，让中美建设性战略稳定关系更好惠及两国人民和世界各国人民。这一重要论述，为把中美建设性战略稳定关系从愿景转化为行动明确了路径，也为两国关系长远发展注入了新的动力。

The interests of China and the United States are deeply intertwined, and there is ample room for cooperation. Cooperation is a two-way street. Stabilizing China-US economic and trade relations requires both lengthening the list of areas for cooperation and shortening the list of problems. On the eve of this presidents’ meeting, the two sides’ economic and trade teams held a new round of consultations and reached a new joint arrangement. That is good news for industries and ordinary people in both countries, and for the global economy. It once again confirms that the essence of China-US economic and trade relations is mutual benefit and win-win outcomes, and that equal-footed consultation is the only correct choice when facing differences and friction. So long as both sides uphold equality, respect, and reciprocity, they can find a way to resolve problems and thereby promote the sustained, stable improvement of China-US economic and trade relations.

中美两国利益深度交融，合作空间十分广阔。合作是双行道，中美经贸关系的稳定既需要拉长合作清单，也需要压缩问题清单。此次中美元首会晤前夕，双方经贸团队举行新一轮磋商，达成了一份新的联合安排，对两国产业界、老百姓乃至全球经济都是好消息。这再次印证，中美经贸关系的本质是互利共赢，面对分歧和摩擦，平等协商是唯一正确选择。只要秉持平等、尊重、互惠的精神，双方就能找到解决问题的出路，从而推动中美经贸关系持续稳定向好发展。

Clearly defining principles and bottom lines is an important prerequisite for China and the United States to build a constructive relationship of strategic stability. The Taiwan question is the core of China’s core interests and the first red line in China-US relations that must not be crossed. There is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is an inalienable part of China’s territory. China’s position on safeguarding national reunification and territorial integrity is very clear. We hope the US side will maintain its correct position of opposing “Taiwan independence” and handle the Taiwan question prudently, laying a solid foundation for China-US strategic cooperation and the development of bilateral relations.

明确原则底线，是中美构建建设性战略稳定关系的重要前提。台湾问题是中国核心利益中的核心，是中美关系第一条不可逾越的红线。世界上只有一个中国，台湾是中国领土不可分割的一部分。中方维护国家统一和领土完整的立场是很清楚的。希望美方坚持反对“台独”的正确立场，慎重处理台湾问题，为中美战略合作和两国关系发展奠定坚实基础。

Amid changes in the world, the times, and history, the two major powers, China and the United States, shoulder a historic responsibility to advance human development and progress. On artificial intelligence, President Xi Jinping noted that China and the United States are both major AI powers. They compete, but they can cooperate even more; they should each make the most of their strengths instead of guarding against one another. The two sides can continue their AI dialogue, exchange views on its risks and benefits, and jointly prevent the misuse and malicious use of AI. Humanity must retain control over AI technology, adhere to a people-centered vision that directs it toward good, and ensure that AI serves human progress. President Trump said that AI concerns humanity’s future and that the United States and China should maintain dialogue and strengthen cooperation on it.

面对当今世界之变、时代之变、历史之变，中美两个大国肩负着促进人类发展进步的历史重任。在人工智能领域，习近平主席指出，中美都是人工智能大国，双方有竞争，更可以合作，应该各展所长而不是相互设防。双方可以继续开展人工智能对话，就其风险和收益进行交流，共同防范人工智能被滥用恶用。要保持人类对人工智能技术的管控，秉持以人为本、向上向善理念，让人工智能为人类的进步服务。特朗普总统表示，人工智能关乎人类未来，美中应就此保持对话，加强合作。

During their talks, the two presidents confirmed that they would support each other in successfully hosting the 2026 APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting and the G20 Leaders’ Summit, injecting more positive energy into jointly addressing global challenges and improving global governance. Working together to accomplish more major, practical, and beneficial things for their two countries and the world is precisely what it means to advance the building of a constructive China-US relationship of strategic stability.

会谈中，两国元首确认将相互支持办好2026年亚太经合组织领导人非正式会议和二十国集团领导人峰会，为携手应对全球性挑战、完善全球治理注入更多正能量。中美携手多办一些有利于两国和世界的大事、实事、好事，正是推动构建中美建设性战略稳定关系的应有之义。

This year is a pivotal one for the development of both China and the United States, and bilateral relations once again stand at a new historical starting point. The two sides should act with the responsibility befitting major powers, heed the expectations of their peoples and the trend of the times, and jointly implement the important understandings reached by their presidents. They should turn the constructive China-US relationship of strategic stability from a vision into action, working toward a relationship in which cooperation is the mainstay, competition remains within bounds, differences are manageable, and peace is within reach, and find the right way for two major powers to get along on this planet.

今年是中美各自发展的关键之年，中美关系又站在新的历史起点。双方应当展现大国担当，顺应人民期盼和时代大势，共同落实好两国元首重要共识，把中美建设性战略稳定关系从愿景转化为行动，朝着合作为主、竞争有度、分歧可控、和平可期的方向努力，走出一条两个大国在这个星球上的正确相处之道。
