世界领袖联盟主席、斯洛文尼亚前总统达尼洛·图尔克在论坛开幕式致辞中表示,“从都国际论坛”已经成为建立互信、促进相互理解的平台。“通过开放、包容和真诚的交流,我们加强国际合作,共同应对挑战。”


Hu Chunhua, vice-chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, attended the forum and delivered a keynote speech on China's initiatives on global security, development and civilization.


Common development is the key to lasting peace, he said, adding that China will stick to its opening-up policy to provide more development opportunities to the world.


Diego Martinez Belio, Spain's secretary of state for Foreign and Global Affairs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation, noted in a speech that the forum has served as a vital platform for fostering inclusive dialogue to address pressing global challenges since its first edition in 2014.


西班牙外交部国务秘书迭戈·马丁内斯·贝利奥说,“从都国际论坛”自举办以来,一直是深化各国包容性对话、应对全球重大挑战的重要平台。


"Looking ahead, all parties should take concrete actions to strengthen solidarity and cooperation, jointly address global challenges, and uphold and practice true multilateralism," said Yang Wanming, president of the Chinese People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries.


中国人民对外友好协会会长杨万明表示,面向未来,各方应以实际行动加强团结合作,合力应对全球挑战,捍卫并践行真正的多边主义,站在历史正确的一边,以“同球共济”的精神推动构建人类命运共同体,为促进世界和平稳定与繁荣贡献力量。


Chau Chak Wing, president of the Australia China Friendship and Exchange Association, said the trend of mutual understanding in the forums has been growing during recent years. "The hosting of the ISIF fully demonstrates that we have more friends, deeper friendships, and greater mutual understanding."


澳大利亚-中国友好交流协会会长周泽荣表示,“从都国际论坛”创办至今已有十年,参会者坚持相互尊重、加深理解、增进互信、扩大共识。


Acknowledging that the world faces multiple challenges, the forum's participants praised China's initiatives and proposals, and emphasized the crucial role of multilateralism for collaboration and the need for practical implementation.


Danilo Turk, former president of Slovenia and president of Club de Madrid, one of the organizers of the forum, said there is no future without prosperity, and prosperity must not be confined to a selective few or limited regions in the world.


"Open trade is a vital engine for growth, innovation and poverty alleviation. … It is very encouraging to hear today that China's policy of opening-up is continuing," Turk said.



第77届联合国大会主席、匈牙利总统办公室环境可持续发展事务前主任克勒希·乔鲍在接受媒体采访时表示,当前世界盛行的零和博弈心态正在掩盖全球共同利益和全球合作的必要性,而“从都国际论坛”为讨论如何应对这一问题提供了一个鼓舞人心的平台。“零和博弈的结果是一场双输的比赛。这对我们来说不是一个可以接受的结果。我们的责任是集体行动,我们仍然可以进行某种竞赛,但必须找到合作的方式。”乔鲍说。


Csaba Korosi, a Hungarian diplomat who served as president of the 77th United Nations General Assembly, said the current crises were the results of geopolitical competition and nonsustainable ways of development, and to deal with these crises, the world needs well-functioning multilateralism now more than ever.


"However, there are strong voices in many countries claiming their interests are not well represented on multilateral platforms. This sentiment can be heard in Africa, in the United States, and in some European and Asian countries," Korosi said.


"But that doesn't mean we don't need multilateralism. It means we must sit down and think about how to adjust some institutions and their rules, and how to follow the goals we jointly agreed upon," he added.


Aminata Toure, former prime minister of Senegal, said that African countries look forward to expanding relationships with China, because they share similar experiences of unequal treatment in history, and African countries have the ambition to reduce poverty.


当前,百年变局加速演进,全球治理面临着复杂形势,真正的多边主义必须建立在相互尊重、相互信任,广泛开展对话合作的基础之上。


韩国前总理韩升洙表示,自二战结束以来,多边主义为各国提供了一个合作、贸易和繁荣的框架,促进了世界和平,并推动全球经济达到了前所未有的高度。但如今多边主义体系正承受着空前的压力,这是世界面临的最大挑战。


哥斯达黎加前总统卡洛斯·阿尔瓦拉多表示,全球凝聚力是当前的主要难题,人工智能发展、气候变化危机以及全球范围内的和平挑战,都需要我们的共同努力才能应对。今年“从都国际论坛”的议题都非常切合实际,契合当前世界的需求。


秘鲁前总统弗朗西斯科·萨加斯蒂表示,国际社会需要在区域、国际层面上达成新的治理共识,采取共同行动,应对历史性的时代巨变所带来的巨大挑战。
