Chinese President Xi Jinping on Wednesday attended the opening ceremony of the Conference on Dialogue of Asian Civilizations in Beijing and delivered a keynote speech.
5月15日，国家主席习*出席亚洲文明对话大会开幕式，并发表主旨演讲。
He called for efforts to jointly create a brighter future for civilizations of Asia and the world.
他呼吁大家共同创造亚洲文明和世界文明的美好未来。
The Chinese president raised a four-point proposal to consolidate the "cultural foundation" of jointly building a community with a shared future for Asia and humanity: treating each other with respect and as equals; appreciating the beauty of all civilizations; adhering to openness, inclusiveness, mutual learning; and keeping pace with the times.
为夯实共建亚洲命运共同体、人类命运共同体的人文基础，习*提出四点主张：坚持相互尊重、平等相待；坚持美人之美、美美与共；坚持开放包容、互学互鉴；坚持与时俱进、创新发展。
Foreign guests including Cambodian King Norodom Sihamoni, Greek President Prokopis Pavlopoulos, Singaporean President Halimah Yacob, Sri Lankan President Maithripala Sirisena, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, and UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay, spoke at the opening ceremony respectively.
柬埔寨国王西哈莫尼、希腊总统帕夫洛普洛斯、新加坡总统哈莉玛、斯里兰卡总统西里塞纳、亚美尼亚总理帕希尼扬、联合国教科文组织总干事阿祖莱等外宾也在开幕式上致辞。
They stressed the need to respect the differences, uniqueness and diversity of civilizations, saying that the so-called clash of civilizations argument is a huge mistake which will damage or even cut off the bridge for civilization exchanges.
他们表示，要尊重文明的差异性、独立性和多样性，所谓“文明冲突论”十分错误，将破坏甚至切断文明沟通的桥梁。
The week-long event includes an opening ceremony, panel discussions, an Asian culture carnival and Asian Civilization Week involving more than 110 activities to showcase the diversity and charm of Asian civilizations.
为期一周的亚洲文明对话大会包括开幕式、平行分论坛、亚洲文化嘉年华、亚洲文明周四大板块共110余场活动，展示亚洲文明的多样性和魅力。
