“國防白皮書”要點（中英對照）

中國政府4月16日發表《中國武裝力量的多樣化運用》白皮書，強調走和平發展道路，是中國堅定不移的國家意志和戰略抉擇。

The document, the eighth of its kind issued by the Chinese government since 1998, says China advocates a new security concept featuring mutual trust, mutual benefit, equality and coordination, and pursues comprehensive security, common security and cooperative security.

這是自1998年以來中國政府發表的第八部國防白皮書。白皮書指出，中國倡導互信、互利、平等、協作的新安全觀，尋求實現綜合安全、共同安全、合作安全。

The paper warns that China still faces multiple and complicated security threats and challenges. The issues of subsistence and development security and traditional and non-traditional threats to security are interwoven, the document says. Therefore China has an arduous task to safeguard its national unification, territorial integrity and development interests.

白皮書指出，中國仍面臨多元復雜的安全威脅和挑戰，生存安全問題和發展安全問題、傳統安全威脅和非傳統安全威脅相互交織，維護國家統一、維護領土完整、維護發展利益的任務艱巨繁重。

In this paper, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) for the first time reveals the actual number of army, navy and air force servicemen, designations of its army combined corps and the main missile lineup.
