[现场提问]
问:我将读一个从网上选出的对您的提问,这个问题是一个台湾人提出的。他在提问时说:我来自台湾,现在在大陆做生意。由于两岸关系近年来不断改善,我现在在大陆的生意做得很好。因此,当我听到美国有人要提议——继续向台湾出售武器的消息时,我开始感到非常担心。我担心这会破坏海峡两岸的关系。因此,总统先生,我想知道您是否支持改善两岸关系。当然,这个问题虽然是一位商人提出的,但所有年轻的中国学生其实都非常关心这个问题,所以我们特别希望了解您在这个问题上的立场。谢谢。(掌声)
Q I will be reading a question selected on the Internet to you, and this question is from somebody from Taiwan. In his question, he said: I come from Taiwan. Now I am doing business on the mainland. And due to improved cross-straits relations in recent years, my business in China is doing quite well. So when I heard the news that some people in America would like to propose -- continue selling arms and weapons to Taiwan, I begin to get pretty worried. I worry that this may make our cross-straits relations suffer. So I would like to know if, Mr. President, are you supportive of improved cross-straits relations? And although this question is from a businessman, actually, it's a question of keen concern to all of us young Chinese students, so we'd really like to know your position on this question. Thank you. (Applause.)
PRESIDENT OBAMA: Thank you. Well, I have been clear in the past that my administration fully supports a one-China policy, as reflected in the three joint communiqués that date back several decades, in terms of our relations with Taiwan as well as our relations with the People's Republic of China. We don't want to change that policy and that approach.
奥巴马总统:谢谢你。我一贯明确表示,本届政府完全支持一个中国的政策,即几十年前发布的三个联合公报所阐明的我们与中华人民共和国的关系以及我们与台湾的关系。我们不想改变这项政策和这项方针。
I am very pleased with the reduction of tensions and the improvement in cross-straits relations, and it is my deep desire and hope that we will continue to see great improvement between Taiwan and the rest of -- and the People's Republic in resolving many of these issues.
我非常高兴地看到紧张局势的缓解和海峡两岸关系的改善,而且我非常盼望和希望我们能继续看到台湾和中国其他地区在解决很多这类问题时显著改善关系。
