VIENTIANE, Laos — After months of confrontations in the South China Sea and
days of high-stakes diplomacy, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Tues
day the time has arrived to “move away from the public tensions and turn th
e page.”
越南，老挝——在中国南海问题上经过数月的对抗和几天的高强度交锋，美国国务卿凯
瑞在周二表示“应该（把南海问题）淡出公众焦点，翻开新的篇章。”
Kerry met with his Chinese counterpart, Wang Yi, on Monday on the sidelines
of a regional gathering of Southeast Asian countries. China had scored a dip
lomatic victory when a watered-down joint statement from the 10-member Assoc
iation of Southeast Asian Nations did not criticize China for its actions in
the South China Sea and did not mention a tribunal ruling that eviscerated
China’s historic claims to the waters.
凯瑞在周一的东南亚国家外长会上会见了了中国外交部长王毅。中国在此次会议上取得
了外交胜利，东南亚国家联盟（11个成员）中的10个成员国（除了菲律宾）没有在外长
会上就南海问题及国际仲裁法院的判决表态支持或批评中国。
Kerry said at a news conference that the U.S. is not taking sides on the sub
stance of maritime disputes from countries such as the Philippines, which to
ok the case to the tribunal in The Hague, but believes “rule of law must be
upheld.” China has said it will ignore the ruling, which it deems illegiti
mate. It leaned on Cambodia and other close allies to prevent ASEAN from mak
ing a critical statement, saying the disputes should be handled in one-on-on
e negotiations and not by the regional bloc.
凯瑞在一次新闻发布会上表示，美国并没有在菲律宾发起的国际仲裁中偏袒菲律宾，但
是他相信“法律必须被遵守”。中国宣称会忽略裁决，这被认为是不正当的。老挝和其
他中国的盟友阻止了东南亚国家联盟共同作出声明，他们表示争端应该一对一谈判解决
，而不是由东盟共同决定。But with The Hague ruling in the past, Kerry said he
and Wang agreed it is time to lower the temperature. Kerry flies to Manila
on Tuesday and is scheduled to meet with the Philippines new president, Rodr
igo Duterte, on Wednesday. He said he will urge Duterte to negotiate with Be
ijing.
但是对于海牙国际法庭的裁决，凯瑞表示他和王毅都同意现在该就这一问题降温。凯瑞
将在周二飞往马里拉会见菲律宾新总统杜特尔特。和说他将敦促杜特尔特与北京展开对
话。
“Hopefully this can become a moment that we can all take advantage of, wher
e we work out some of the modalities of how do you deal with the fishing? Ho
w do you deal with natural resources? How do you deal with the movement, the
free movement of vessels and protect the rights of everybody?” Kerry said.
“This could be a very important moment of shifting how this discussion is
taking place and not being played out through public moves unilaterally and
challenges, but in a constructive and thoughtful, engaged diplomatic manner.
”
“希望可以找到一个对双方都有利的解决方案，这个方案将规范此地区的如何捕鱼、如
何获取自然资源、如何自由航行、如何保证各方的合法权益的问题。”凯瑞说。“这将
是展现改变的一个非常重要的时刻，（双方）并没有单方面进一步的行动和公开挑战，
而是通过外交方式建设性和深思熟虑的解决问题。”
Philippines Secretary of Foreign Affairs Perfecto Yasay Jr. said Duterte had
sent him to Laos with simple instructions. “I was just conscious of the fa
ct that our president had said that whatever we will do, we will not violate
the law, we will uphold the constitution and we will promote the paramount
national interest,” Yasay said.
菲律宾外交部长雅赛说菲律宾总统杜特尔特以明确的指令把他派到老挝。“我只是意识
到，我们的总统说，无论我们做什么，我们都不会违反法律，我们将坚持宪法，我们将
促进国家的最重要的利益。”他说。
