当地时间20日,第77届联合国大会一般性辩论在纽约联合国总部拉开帷幕。本届联大一般性辩论的主题为“分水岭时刻:以变革方案应对相互交织的挑战”。
The General Debate of the 77th session of the UN General Assembly opened on Tuesday with the theme of "A watershed moment: transformative solutions to interlocking challenges."
当天,联合国秘书长古特雷斯在讲话中警告,世界“已陷入大麻烦之中”,各种分歧日益加深,不平等现象日渐扩大,棘手难题正在扩散。
In his "state-of-the world" report to the General Assembly right before the opening of the General Debate, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned that the world is "in big trouble".
“世界已陷入大麻烦之中。各种分歧日益加深。不平等现象日渐扩大。棘手难题正在扩散。”
"Our world is in big trouble. Divides are growing deeper. Inequalities are growing wider. And challenges are spreading farther," he said.
“我们的世界既处于危险境地,又处于瘫痪状态。”
“Our world is in peril–and paralyzed. ”
他呼吁各国维护联合国实现和维持和平的核心使命,尊重国际法,用对话机制来弥合分歧,强调“任何重大的全球性挑战都不可能通过‘意愿联盟’来解决”。
“任何势力或集团都不可能单独发号施令。任何重大的全球性挑战都不可能通过有意愿者联盟来克服。我们需要的是世界联盟。”
“No power or group alone can call the shots. No major global challenge can be solved by a coalition of the willing. We need a coalition of the world.”
“我们需要尊重国际法、保护人权,以此为基石,在世界各地采取更多的协调一致行动。面对一个分崩离析的世界,我们需要建立对话机制,以弥合分歧。”
“We need much more concerted action everywhere anchored in respect for international law and the protection of human rights. In a splintering world, we need to create mechanisms of dialogue to heal divides.”
古特雷斯还敦促各国大力发展可再生能源并帮助相关国家适应日益恶化的气候冲击。此外,他强调,只要团结一致,国际社会就能够培育出“希望之苗(shoots of hope)”。
“在发达国家和发展中国家之间,也就是北方国家与南方国家之间,或者说在特权国家和其他国家之间,分歧正在变得日益危险。这种分歧所致的地缘政治紧张关系和缺乏信任伤害了包括疫苗和贸易制裁在内的全球合作各领域。但是,我们可以通过团结一致采取行动,维护脆弱的希望之苗。”
“The divergence between developed and developing countries – between North and South – between the privileged and the rest – is becoming more dangerous by the day. It is at the root of the geopolitical tensions and lack of trust that poison every area of global cooperation, from vaccines to sanctions to trade. But by acting as one, we can nurture fragile shoots of hope.”
