答：2014年是中国外交精彩纷呈、亮点倍出的一年。昨天王毅外长出席了由中国国际问题研究院、中国国际问题研究基金会主办的2014年国际形势与中国外交研讨会开幕式并发表题为《盘点2014：中国外交丰收之年》的演讲。王毅外长在演讲中全面系统地阐述了2014年中国外交所取得的新进展，开创的新局面，总结回顾了中国在新形势下积极探索国际关系的理论与实践创新，积极参与全球经济与金融治理进程，积极开展与世界各主要方向友好交往，积极推动各种地区热点问题的和平解决，积极为国内发展服务并创造良好环境等一系列新的重大举措，从中也可以看出明年中国外交的一些思路。
A: 2014 has witnessed the brilliant performance of China’s diplomacy that keeps creating highlights. Yesterday, Foreign Minister Wang Yi attended the opening ceremony of the symposium on international landscape and China’s diplomacy in 2014 jointly held by China Institute of International Studies and China Foundation of International Studies, and delivered a speech entitled A Review of 2014: A Year of Bumper Harvest for China’s Diplomacy. Foreign Minister Wang gave a full and systematic explanation about the new progress made and new dimensions opened by China’s diplomacy in 2014 and reviewed a series of major new steps taken by China in 2014. Under the new circumstances, China positively explored and innovated theory and practice of international relations, took on an active role in the process of global economic and financial governance, carried out friendly exchanges with major directions of the world, pushed forward peaceful settlement of various regional hot-spot issues and provided service and created good environment for development within China. From these we can have a clue about some new thinking of China’s diplomacy next year.
关于明年中国领导人的首次出访安排，我们会适时发布。
As for the arrangement for Chinese leaders’ first visits next year, we will release the information in due course.

A: With the concerted efforts of parties concerned, recently there has been some proactive progress in negotiations on a comprehensive agreement on the Iranian nuclear issue. Upon approval of all parties, the next round of negotiations at the director-general level will be held in the mid of January, 2015. The Chinese side believes that parties concerned should set great store by the good momentum shown in current negotiations, adhere to the consensus reached in the previous stage of negotiations, focus on and narrow the differences and make political decisions at an early date. It is also our hope that relevant proposals and solutions concerning the focal issues put forward by the Chinese side in the last round of negotiations can help all parties patch up differences and enter into a comprehensive agreement that is mutually beneficial and win-win to all as soon as possible.
