第15篇 中國的軍事戰略
中國的國際政策和軍事戰略始終是積極防御,這是中國根據自己的國際關系準則和外部安全環境作出的基本戰略選擇,也是優秀的中國軍事傳統在新時代的延續和升華。
China's international policy and military strategy have always been those of positive defense. This is the basic strategic choice China has made according to its norms governing international relations and to its external security environment. It also reflects the continuation and distillation of China's outstanding military tradition in the new era.
中國軍事傳統的基本特色是謀求和平。對內主張堅決維護國家統一,反對民族;對外一貫奉行睦鄰友好的方針和防御戰略,以“非攻”球和睦,以自衛保安寧。萬里長城所象征的就是這種防御觀念。中華人民共和國自建立之日起,就始終堅持在統一中求強盛,在強盛中求和平,在和平中求發展。隨著時間的推移,人們越來越清楚地看到,中國有決心和能力保衛自己多國家安全利益,中國是維護地區與世界和平的重要力量。
China's military tradition is characteristically one of seeking peace. Under this peace-seeking policy, internally, we resolutely defend national unity and oppose to any attempt at national separation; externally, we follow a good-neighborly policy and a defensive strategy, seeking friendly and harmonious relations through what is known as the “non-offensive” approach and securing peace through self-defense. The Great Wall is symbolic of such a defensive concept. Ever since its founding, the People's Republic of China has been consistently seeking prosperity through unification, seeking peace through prosperity, and seeking development through peace. With the passage of time, it will be even more apparent to the world that China is determined to defend its national security and is capable of doing so, and that China is an important force in safeguarding regional and global peace.
中國的社會主義制度和獨立自主的和平外交政策,也決定了中國奉行積極防御的國防政策和軍事戰略方針。中國不搞霸權主義,不搞強權政治,不對外搞軍事擴張。中國的戰略疆界不會超出其自然疆界,中國軍事力量的發展也不會超出防御和自衛的需要。中國多次進行裁軍,充分顯示了中國軍事戰略的和平宗旨和防御性質,同時也反映了在和平與發展的時代主題下,中國的理性戰略思維和新的安全觀念。
