Peace and development

当今世界正处在大发展大变革大调整时期。世界多极化、经济全球化深入发展，世界范围内各种思想文化交流更加频繁、更加活跃，开放合作、互利共赢成为国际社会广泛共识，国与国相互联系更加紧密。同时，国际金融危机影响仍在持续，发展不平衡更加突出，气候变化、粮食安全、能源资源安全等全球性问题进一步显现，恐怖主义、跨国有组织犯罪、重大传染性疾病等非传统安全威胁依然存在，局部冲突和热点问题此起彼伏，不稳定不确定因素增多，世界和平与发展面临诸多挑战。
We live in a world that is undergoing major development, major changes and major adjustments. As world multi-polarity and economic globalization gather momentum, global exchanges of ideas and cultures are becoming more frequent and dynamic. Openness, cooperation, mutual benefit and win-win progress have become the common pursuit of the international community as countries are more closely interconnected than before. On the other hand, however, the global financial crisis continues to affect our lives. Imbalance in development has been thrown into sharp relief. Climate change, food security, energy and resource security and other global issues have become more pronounced. Terrorism, transnational organized crime, major infectious diseases and other non-traditional security threats continue to exist. Local conflicts and hot-spot issues have kept flaring up, and uncertainties and destabilizing factors are mounting. All this presents multiple challenges to world peace and development.
