一带一路是什么？
Belt and Road Initiative – China's proposal to build a Silk Road Economic Belt and a 21st Century Maritime Silk Road in cooperation with related countries – was unveiled by Chinese President Xi Jinping during his visits to Central and Southeast Asia in September and October 2013.
“一带一路”是“丝绸之路经济带”和“21世纪海上丝绸之路”的简称。2013年9月和10月，主席出访中亚和东南亚时，分别提出了与相关国家共同建设“丝绸之路经济带”和“21世纪海上丝绸之路”的倡议。
The initiative focuses on promoting policy coordination, connectivity of infrastructure and facilities, unimpeded trade, financial integration, and strengthened people-to-people ties through a consultative process and joint efforts, with the goal of bringing benefits to all.
该倡议以实现“政策沟通、设施联通、贸易畅通、资金融通、民心相通”为主要内容，以共商、共建、共享为原则，实实在在地造福沿线国家和人民。

丝绸之路经济带:
Silk Road Economic Belt
The Silk Road first emerged more than 2,100 years ago during the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 24) after China's imperial envoy Zhang Qian twice visited Central Asia. It became a bridge between East and West, opening the door to friendly engagement between China and Central Asia. For two millennia, countless tales of everlasting friendship between peoples have been woven into this ancient network.
2100多年前，中国汉代的张骞两次出使中亚，开启了中国同中亚各国友好交往的大门，开辟出一条横贯东西、连接欧亚的丝绸之路。千百年来，在这条古老的丝绸之路上，各国人民共同谱写出千古传诵的友好篇章。
In a speech at Kazakhstan's Nazarbayev University on September 7, 2013, President Xi Jinping proposed building a new Silk Road Economic Belt to expand Eurasian economic cooperation. An innovative cooperative approach was outlined, starting with individual projects that are expected to help spur larger-scale regional cooperative development. The proposed economic belt is considered the longest economic corridor in the world – and potentially the most dynamic – connecting the Asia-Pacific region in the East with developed European economies in the West.
为了使欧亚各国经济联系更加紧密、相互合作更加深入、发展空间更加广阔，2013年9月7日，习近平主席在哈萨克斯坦纳扎尔巴耶夫大学发表演讲时提出，用创新的合作模式，共同建设“丝绸之路经济带”，以点带面，从线到片，逐步形成区域大合作。丝绸之路经济带东边牵着亚太经济圈，西边系着发达的欧洲经济圈，被认为是“世界上最长、最具有发展潜力的经济大走廊”。

21世纪海上丝绸之路：
21st Century Maritime Silk Road
Formed during the Qin and Han Dynasties (221 BC-AD 220), the Maritime Silk Road has always played an important role in economic and cultural exchanges between East and West. And Southeast Asia has always been a nexus of this interaction.
自秦汉时期开通以来，海上丝绸之路一直是沟通东西方经济文化交流的重要桥梁。东南亚地区自古以来就是海上丝绸之路的重要枢纽和组成部分。
On the occasion of the 10th Anniversary of the China-ASEAN Strategic Partnership, President Xi Jinping proposed jointly building a 21st Century Maritime Silk Road in his speech to the Indonesian parliament on October 3, 2013. The initiative aims to boost China-ASEAN maritime cooperation and forge closer ties in a community with a shared future.
在中国与东盟建立战略伙伴十周年之际，为了进一步加强双方的海上合作，发展双方的海洋合作伙伴关系，构建更加紧密的命运共同体，2013年10月3日，习近平主席在印度尼西亚国会发表演讲时提出，共同建设“21世纪海上丝绸之路”。
It calls for joint efforts across the region and beyond. Starting with the launch of individual projects that are expected to help spur a wider range of cooperative activities, it envisions a network of interconnected markets linking the ASEAN, South Asia, West Asia, North Africa, and Europe, and a strategic partnership for the South China Sea and the Pacific and Indian oceans.
21世纪海上丝绸之路的战略合作伙伴并不仅限与东盟，而是以点带线，以线带面，串起连通东盟、南亚、西亚、北非、欧洲等各大经济板块的市场链，发展面向南海、太平洋和印度洋的战略合作经济带。
