同志们、朋友们！
comrades and friends,
中华民族是世界上伟大的民族，有着5000多年源远流长的文明历史，为人类文明进步作出了不可磨灭的贡献。1840年鸦片战争以后，中国逐步成为半殖民地半封建社会，国家蒙辱、人民蒙难、文明蒙尘，中华民族遭受了前所未有的劫难。从那时起，实现中华民族伟大复兴，就成为中国人民和中华民族最伟大的梦想。
the chinese nation is a great nation. witha history of more than 5,000 years, china has made indelible contributions tothe progress of human civilization. after the opium war of 1840, however, chinawas gradually reduced to a semi-colonial, semi-feudal society and sufferedgreater ravages than ever before. the country endured intense humiliation, thepeople were subjected to great pain, and the chinese civilization was plungedinto darkness. since that time, national rejuvenation has been the greatestdream of the chinese people and the chinese nation.
为了拯救民族危亡，中国人民奋起反抗，仁人志士奔走呐喊，太平天国运动、戊戌变法、义和团运动、辛亥革命接连而起，各种救国方案轮番出台，但都以失败而告终。中国迫切需要新的思想引领救亡运动，迫切需要新的组织凝聚革命力量。
to save the nation from peril, thechinese people put up a courageous fight. as noble-minded patriots sought to pullthe nation together, the taiping heavenly kingdom movement, the reform movementof 1898, the yihetuan movement, and the revolution of 1911 rose one after theother, and a variety of plans were devised to ensure national survival, but allof these ended in failure. china was in urgent need of new ideas to lead themovement to save the nation and a new organization to rally revolutionaryforces.
十月革命一声炮响，给中国送来了马克思列宁主义。在中国人民和中华民族的伟大觉醒中，在马克思列宁主义同中国工人运动的紧密结合中，中国共产党应运而生。中国产生了共产党，这是开天辟地的大事变，深刻改变了近代以后中华民族发展的方向和进程，深刻改变了中国人民和中华民族的前途和命运，深刻改变了世界发展的趋势和格局。
with the salvoes of russia’s octoberrevolution in 1917, marxism-leninism was brought to china. then in 1921, as thechinese people and the chinese nation were undergoing a great awakening and marxism-leninismwas becoming closely integrated with the chinese workers’ movement, thecommunist party of china was born. the founding of a communist party in china wasan epoch-making event, which profoundly changed the course of chinese historyin modern times, transformed the future of the chinese people and nation, and alteredthe landscape of world development.
中国共产党一经诞生，就把为中国人民谋幸福、为中华民族谋复兴确立为自己的初心使命。一百年来，中国共产党团结带领中国人民进行的一切奋斗、一切牺牲、一切创造，归结起来就是一个主题：实现中华民族伟大复兴。
since the very day of its founding,the party has made seeking happiness for the chinese people and rejuvenationfor the chinese nation its aspiration and mission. all the struggle, sacrifice,and creation through which the party has united and led the chinese people overthe past hundred years has been tied together by one ultimate theme—bringingabout the great rejuvenation of the chinese nation.
——为了实现中华民族伟大复兴，中国共产党团结带领中国人民，浴血奋战、百折不挠，创造了新民主主义革命的伟大成就。我们经过北伐战争、土地革命战争、抗日战争、解放战争，以武装的革命反对武装的反革命，推翻帝国主义、封建主义、官僚资本主义三座大山，建立了人民当家作主的中华人民共和国，实现了民族独立、人民解放。新民主主义革命的胜利，彻底结束了旧中国半殖民地半封建社会的历史，彻底结束了旧中国一盘散沙的局面，彻底废除了列强强加给中国的不平等条约和帝国主义在中国的一切特权，为实现中华民族伟大复兴创造了根本社会条件。中国共产党和中国人民以英勇顽强的奋斗向世界庄严宣告，中国人民站起来了，中华民族任人宰割、饱受欺凌的时代一去不复返了！
to realize national rejuvenation, the partyunited and led the chinese people in fighting bloody battles withunyielding determination, achieving great success in the new-democraticrevolution. through the northern expedition, the agrarian revolutionary war,the war of resistance against japanese aggression, and the war of liberation, wefought armed counter-revolution with armed revolution, toppling the threemountains of imperialism, feudalism, and bureaucrat-capitalism and establishingthe people’s republic of china, which made the people masters of the country. wethus secured our nation’s independence and liberated our people. the victory ofthe new-democratic revolution put an end to china’s history as a semi-colonial,semi-feudal society, to the state of total disunity that existed in old china,and to all the unequal treaties imposed on our country by foreign powers and allthe privileges that imperialist powers enjoyed in china. it created thefundamental social conditions for realizing national rejuvenation. throughtenacious struggle, the party and the chinese people showed the world that thechinese people had stood up, and that the time in which the chinesenation could be bullied and abused by others was gone forever.
——为了实现中华民族伟大复兴，中国共产党团结带领中国人民，自力更生、发愤图强，创造了社会主义革命和建设的伟大成就。我们进行社会主义革命，消灭在中国延续几千年的封建剥削压迫制度，确立社会主义基本制度，推进社会主义建设，战胜帝国主义、霸权主义的颠覆破坏和武装挑衅，实现了中华民族有史以来最为广泛而深刻的社会变革，实现了一穷二白、人口众多的东方大国大步迈进社会主义社会的伟大飞跃，为实现中华民族伟大复兴奠定了根本政治前提和制度基础。中国共产党和中国人民以英勇顽强的奋斗向世界庄严宣告，中国人民不但善于破坏一个旧世界、也善于建设一个新世界，只有社会主义才能救中国，只有社会主义才能发展中国！
to realize nationalrejuvenation, the party united and led the chinese people in endeavoring tobuild a stronger china with a spirit of self-reliance, achieving great successin socialist revolution and construction. by carrying out socialist revolution,we eliminated the exploitative and repressive feudal system that had persistedin china for thousands of years, and established socialism as our basic system.in the process of socialist construction, we overcame subversion, sabotage, andarmed provocation by imperialist and hegemonic powers, and brought about themost extensive and profound social changes in the history of the chinesenation. this great transformation of china from a poor and backward country inthe east with a large population into a socialist country laid down thefundamental political conditions and the institutional foundations necessaryfor realizing national rejuvenation.
throughtenacious struggle, the party and the chinese people showed the world that thechinese people were capable of not only dismantling the old world, but alsobuilding a new one, that only socialism could save china, and that onlysocialism could develop china.
——为了实现中华民族伟大复兴，中国共产党团结带领中国人民，解放思想、锐意进取，创造了改革开放和社会主义现代化建设的伟大成就。我们实现新中国成立以来党的历史上具有深远意义的伟大转折，确立党在社会主义初级阶段的基本路线，坚定不移推进改革开放，战胜来自各方面的风险挑战，开创、坚持、捍卫、发展中国特色社会主义，实现了从高度集中的计划经济体制到充满活力的社会主义市场经济体制、从封闭半封闭到全方位开放的历史性转变，实现了从生产力相对落后的状况到经济总量跃居世界第二的历史性突破，实现了人民生活从温饱不足到总体小康、奔向全面小康的历史性跨越，为实现中华民族伟大复兴提供了充满新的活力的体制保证和快速发展的物质条件。中国共产党和中国人民以英勇顽强的奋斗向世界庄严宣告，改革开放是决定当代中国前途命运的关键一招，中国大踏步赶上了时代！
to realize national rejuvenation, the partyunited and led the chinese people in freeing the mind and forging ahead,achieving great success in reform, opening up, and socialist modernization. weestablished the party’s basic line for the primary stage of socialism, resolutelyadvanced reform and opening up, overcame risks and challenges from everydirection, and founded, upheld, safeguarded, and developed socialism withchinese characteristics, thus bringing about a major turn with far-reachingsignificance in the history of the party since the founding of the people’srepublic of china. this enabled china to transform itself from a highlycentralized planned economy to a socialist market economy brimming withvitality, and from a country that was largely isolated to one that is open tothe outside world across the board. it also enabled china to achieve thehistoric leap from a country with relatively backward productive forces to theworld’s second largest economy, and to make the historic transformation of raisingthe living standards of its people from bare subsistence to an overall level ofmoderate prosperity, and then ultimately to moderate prosperity in allrespects. these achievements fueled the push toward national rejuvenation byproviding institutional guarantees imbued with new energy as well as thematerial conditions for rapid development. through tenacious struggle, the partyand the chinese people showed the world that by pursuing reform and opening up,a crucial move in making china what it is today, china had caught up with thetimes in great strides.
——为了实现中华民族伟大复兴，中国共产党团结带领中国人民，自信自强、守正创新，统揽伟大斗争、伟大工程、伟大事业、伟大梦想，创造了新时代中国特色社会主义的伟大成就。党的十八大以来，中国特色社会主义进入新时代，我们坚持和加强党的全面领导，统筹推进“五位一体”总体布局、协调推进“四个全面”战略布局，坚持和完善中国特色社会主义制度、推进国家治理体系和治理能力现代化，坚持依规治党、形成比较完善的党内法规体系，战胜一系列重大风险挑战，实现第一个百年奋斗目标，明确实现第二个百年奋斗目标的战略安排，党和国家事业取得历史性成就、发生历史性变革，为实现中华民族伟大复兴提供了更为完善的制度保证、更为坚实的物质基础、更为主动的精神力量。中国共产党和中国人民以英勇顽强的奋斗向世界庄严宣告，中华民族迎来了从站起来、富起来到强起来的伟大飞跃，实现中华民族伟大复兴进入了不可逆转的历史进程！
to realize national rejuvenation, the partyhas united and led the chinese people in pursuing a great struggle, a greatproject, a great cause, and a great dream through a spirit of self-confidence,self-reliance, and innovation, achieving great success for socialism withchinese characteristics in the new era. following the party’s 18th nationalcongress, socialism with chinese characteristics entered a new era. in this newera, we have upheld and strengthened the party’s overall leadership, ensuredcoordinated implementation of the five-sphere integrated plan and thefour-pronged comprehensive strategy, upheld and improvedthe system of socialism with chinese characteristics, modernized china’s systemand capacity for governance, remained committed to exercising rule-basedgovernance over the party, and developed a sound system of intrapartyregulations. we have overcome a long list of major risks and challenges,fulfilled the first centenary goal, and set out strategic steps for achievingthe second centenary goal. all the historic achievements and changes in thecause of the party and the country have provided the cause of nationalrejuvenation with more robust institutions, stronger material foundations, and asource of inspiration for taking greater initiative. through tenaciousstruggle, the party and the chinese people have shown the world that thechinese nation has achieved the tremendous transformation from standing up andgrowing prosperous to becoming strong, and that china’s national rejuvenationhas become a historical inevitability.
一百年来，中国共产党团结带领中国人民，以“为有牺牲多壮志，敢教日月换新天”的大无畏气概，书写了中华民族几千年历史上最恢宏的史诗。这一百年来开辟的伟大道路、创造的伟大事业、取得的伟大成就，必将载入中华民族发展史册、人类文明发展史册！
over the past hundred years, the party has unitedand led the chinese people in writing the most magnificent chapter in themillennia-long history of the chinese nation, embodying the dauntless spirit thatmao zedong expressed when he wrote, “our minds grow stronger for the martyrs’ sacrifice, daring to make the sun and the moon shinein the new sky.” the great path we havepioneered, the great cause we have undertaken, and the great achievements wehave made over the past century will go down in the annals of the developmentof the chinese nation and of human civilization.

over the past hundred years, the party has carriedforward this great founding spirit. through its protracted struggles, it has developeda long line of inspiring principles for chinese communists and tempered adistinct political character. as history has kept moving forward, the spirit ofthe party has been passed on from generation to generation. we will continue topromote our glorious traditions and sustain our revolutionary legacy, so thatthe great founding spirit of the party will always be kept alive and carriedforward.

comrades and friends,
初心易得，始终难守。以史为鉴，可以知兴替。我们要用历史映照现实、远观未来，从中国共产党的百年奋斗中看清楚过去我们为什么能够成功、弄明白未来我们怎样才能继续成功，从而在新的征程上更加坚定、更加自觉地牢记初心使命、开创美好未来。
though our party’s founding mission is easy to define, ensuring thatwe stay true to this mission is a more difficult task. by learning from history,we can understand why powers rise and fall. through the mirror of history, wecan find where we currently stand and gain foresight into the future. lookingback on the party’s 100-year history, we cansee why we were successful in the past and how we can continue to succeed inthe future. this will ensure that we act with greater resolve and purpose instaying true to our founding mission and pursuing a better future on the new journeythat lies before us.
——以史为鉴、开创未来，必须坚持中国共产党坚强领导。办好中国的事情，关键在党。中华民族近代以来180多年的历史、中国共产党成立以来100年的历史、中华人民共和国成立以来70多年的历史都充分证明，没有中国共产党，就没有新中国，就没有中华民族伟大复兴。历史和人民选择了中国共产党。中国共产党领导是中国特色社会主义最本质的特征，是中国特色社会主义制度的最大优势，是党和国家的根本所在、命脉所在，是全国各族人民的利益所系、命运所系。
as we put conscious effort into learning fromhistory to create a bright future, we must bear the following in mind:
we must uphold the firm leadership of the party. china’s success hinges on the party. the more than180-year-long modern history of the chinese nation, the 100-year-long historyof the party, and the more than 70-year-long history of the people’s republic of china all provide ample evidence thatwithout the communist party of china, there would be no new china and nonational rejuvenation. the party was chosen by history and the people. theleadership of the party is the defining feature of socialism with chinesecharacteristics and constitutes the greatest strength of this system. it is thefoundation and lifeblood of the party and the country, and the crux upon which theinterests and wellbeing of all chinese people depend.
新的征程上，我们必须坚持党的全面领导，不断完善党的领导，增强“四个意识”、坚定“四个自信”、做到“两个维护”，牢记“国之大者”，不断提高党科学执政、民主执政、依法执政水平，充分发挥党总揽全局、协调各方的领导核心作用！
on the journey ahead, we must uphold the party’s overall leadership and continue to enhance itsleadership. we must be deeply conscious of the need to maintain politicalintegrity, think in big-picture terms, follow the leadership core, and keep inalignment with the central party leadership. we must stay confident in thepath, theory, system, and culture of socialism with chinese characteristics. wemust uphold the core position of the general secretary on the party centralcommittee and in the party as a whole, and uphold the central committee’s authority and its centralized, unified leadership.bearing in mind the country’s most fundamental interests, we must enhance the party’s capacity to conduct sound, democratic, andlaw-based governance, and ensure that it fully exerts its core role inproviding overall leadership and coordinating the efforts of all sides.
——以史为鉴、开创未来，必须团结带领中国人民不断为美好生活而奋斗。江山就是人民、人民就是江山，打江山、守江山，守的是人民的心。中国共产党根基在人民、血脉在人民、力量在人民。中国共产党始终代表最广大人民根本利益，与人民休戚与共、生死相依，没有任何自己特殊的利益，从来不代表任何利益集团、任何权势团体、任何特权阶层的利益。任何想把中国共产党同中国人民分割开来、对立起来的企图，都是绝不会得逞的！9500多万中国共产党人不答应！14亿多中国人民也不答应！
we must unite and lead the chinese people in workingceaselessly for a better life. this country is its people; the people are thecountry. as we have fought to establish and consolidate our leadership over thecountry, we have in fact been fighting to earn and keep the people’s support. the party has in the people its roots,its lifeblood, and its source of strength. the party has always represented thefundamental interests of all chinese people; it stands with them through thickand thin and shares a common fate with them. the party has no special interestsof its own—it has never represented anyindividual interest group, power group, or privileged stratum. any attempt todivide the party from the chinese people or to set the people against the partyis bound to fail. the more than 95 million party members and the more than 1.4billion chinese people will never allow such a scenario to come to pass.
新的征程上，我们必须紧紧依靠人民创造历史，坚持全心全意为人民服务的根本宗旨，站稳人民立场，贯彻党的群众路线，尊重人民首创精神，践行以人民为中心的发展思想，发展全过程人民民主，维护社会公平正义，着力解决发展不平衡不充分问题和人民群众急难愁盼问题，推动人的全面发展、全体人民共同富裕取得更为明显的实质性进展！
on the journey ahead, we must rely closely on thepeople to create history. upholding the party’s fundamental purpose of wholeheartedly serving thepeople, we will stand firmly with the people, implement the party’s mass line, respect the people’s creativity, and practice a people-centeredphilosophy of development. we will develop whole-process people’s democracy, safeguard social fairness and justice,and resolve the imbalances and inadequacies in development and the mostpressing difficulties and problems that are of great concern to the people. indoing so, we will make more notable and substantive progress toward achieving well-roundedhuman development and common prosperity for all.
——以史为鉴、开创未来，必须继续推进马克思主义中国化。马克思主义是我们立党立国的根本指导思想，是我们党的灵魂和旗帜。中国共产党坚持马克思主义基本原理，坚持实事求是，从中国实际出发，洞察时代大势，把握历史主动，进行艰辛探索，不断推进马克思主义中国化时代化，指导中国人民不断推进伟大社会革命。中国共产党为什么能，中国特色社会主义为什么好，归根到底是因为马克思主义行！
we must continue to adapt marxism to the chinesecontext. marxism is the fundamental guiding ideology upon which our party andcountry are founded; it is the very soul of our party and the banner underwhich it strives. the communist party of china upholds the basic tenets ofmarxism and the principle of seeking truth from facts. based on china’s realities, we have developed keen insights intothe trends of the day, seized the initiative in history, and made painstaking explorations.we have thus been able to keep adapting marxism to the chinese context and theneeds of our times, and to guide the chinese people in advancing our greatsocial revolution. at the fundamental level, the capability of our party andthe strengths of socialism with chinese characteristics are attributable to thefact that marxism works.
新的征程上，我们必须坚持马克思列宁主义、毛泽东思想、邓小平理论、“三个代表”重要思想、科学发展观，全面贯彻新时代中国特色社会主义思想，坚持把马克思主义基本原理同中国具体实际相结合、同中华优秀传统文化相结合，用马克思主义观察时代、把握时代、引领时代，继续发展当代中国马克思主义、21世纪马克思主义！
on the journey ahead, we must continue to upholdmarxism-leninism, mao zedong thought, deng xiaoping theory, the theory of threerepresents, and the scientific outlook on development, and fully implement thethought on socialism with chinese characteristics for a new era. we mustcontinue to adapt the basic tenets of marxism to china’s specific realities and its fine traditionalculture. we will use marxism to observe, understand, and steer the trends ofour times, and continue to develop the marxism of contemporary china and in the21st century.
——以史为鉴、开创未来，必须坚持和发展中国特色社会主义。走自己的路，是党的全部理论和实践立足点，更是党百年奋斗得出的历史结论。中国特色社会主义是党和人民历经千辛万苦、付出巨大代价取得的根本成就，是实现中华民族伟大复兴的正确道路。我们坚持和发展中国特色社会主义，推动物质文明、政治文明、精神文明、社会文明、生态文明协调发展，创造了中国式现代化新道路，创造了人类文明新形态。
we must uphold and develop socialism with chinesecharacteristics. we must follow our own path—this is the bedrock that underpins all the theoriesand practices of our party. more than that, it is the historical conclusion ourparty has drawn from its struggles over the past century. socialism withchinese characteristics is a fundamental achievement of the party and the people,forged through innumerable hardships and great sacrifices, and it is the rightpath for us to achieve national rejuvenation. as we have upheld and developed socialismwith chinese characteristics and driven coordinated progress in material,political, cultural-ethical, social, and ecological terms, we have pioneered anew and uniquely chinese path to modernization, and created a new model forhuman advancement.
新的征程上，我们必须坚持党的基本理论、基本路线、基本方略，统筹推进“五位一体”总体布局、协调推进“四个全面”战略布局，全面深化改革开放，立足新发展阶段，完整、准确、全面贯彻新发展理念，构建新发展格局，推动高质量发展，推进科技自立自强，保证人民当家作主，坚持依法治国，坚持社会主义核心价值体系，坚持在发展中保障和改善民生，坚持人与自然和谐共生，协同推进人民富裕、国家强盛、中国美丽。
on the journey ahead, we must adhere to the party’s basic theory, line, and policy, and implement thefive-sphere integrated plan and the four-pronged comprehensive strategy. wemust deepen reform and opening up across the board, ground our work in this newstage of development, fully and faithfully apply the new development philosophy,and foster a new pattern of development. we must promote high-qualitydevelopment and build up our country’s strength in science and technology. we must ensure it is our peoplewho run the country, continue to govern based on the rule of law, and uphold thecore socialist values. we must ensure and enhance public wellbeing in thecourse of development, promote harmony between humanity and nature, and takewell-coordinated steps toward making our people prosperous, our nation strong,and our country beautiful.
中华民族拥有在5000多年历史演进中形成的灿烂文明，中国共产党拥有百年奋斗实践和70多年执政兴国经验，我们积极学习借鉴人类文明的一切有益成果，欢迎一切有益的建议和善意的批评，但我们绝不接受“教师爷”般颐指气使的说教！中国共产党和中国人民将在自己选择的道路上昂首阔步走下去，把中国发展进步的命运牢牢掌握在自己手中！
the chinese nation has fostered a splendidcivilization over more than 5,000 years of history. the party has also acquireda wealth of experience through its endeavors over the past 100 years and duringmore than 70 years of governance. at the same time, we are also eager to learnwhat lessons we can from the achievements of other cultures, and welcome helpfulsuggestions and constructive criticism. we will not, however, acceptsanctimonious preaching from those who feel they have the right to lecture us.the party and the chinese people will keep moving confidently forward in broadstrides along the path that we have chosen for ourselves,and we will make sure the destiny of china’s development and progress remains firmly in our ownhands.
——以史为鉴、开创未来，必须加快国防和军队现代化。强国必须强军，军强才能国安。坚持党指挥枪、建设自己的人民军队，是党在血与火的斗争中得出的颠扑不破的真理。人民军队为党和人民建立了不朽功勋，是保卫红色江山、维护民族尊严的坚强柱石，也是维护地区和世界和平的强大力量。
we must accelerate the modernization of nationaldefense and the armed forces. a strong country must have a strong military, asonly then can it guarantee the security of the nation. at the point that it wasengaged in violent struggle, the party came to recognize the irrefutable truththat it must command the gun and build a people’s military of its own. the people’s military has made indelible achievements on behalfof the party and the people. it is a strong pillar for safeguarding oursocialist country and preserving national dignity, and a powerful force forprotecting peace in our region and beyond.
新的征程上，我们必须全面贯彻新时代党的强军思想，贯彻新时代军事战略方针，坚持党对人民军队的绝对领导，坚持走中国特色强军之路，全面推进政治建军、改革强军、科技强军、人才强军、依法治军，把人民军队建设成为世界一流军队，以更强大的能力、更可靠的手段捍卫国家主权、安全、发展利益！
on the journey ahead, we must fully implement theparty’s thinking on strengtheningthe military in the new era as well as our military strategy for the new era,maintain the party’s absolute leadership overthe people’s armed forces, and follow achinese path to military development. we will take comprehensive measures to enhancethe political loyalty of the armed forces, to strengthen them through reformand technology and the training of competent personnel, and to run them inaccordance with the law. we will elevate our people’s armed forces to world-class standards so that weare equipped with greater capacity and more reliable means for safeguarding ournational sovereignty, security, and development interests.
——以史为鉴、开创未来，必须不断推动构建人类命运共同体。和平、和睦、和谐是中华民族5000多年来一直追求和传承的理念，中华民族的血液中没有侵略他人、称王称霸的基因。中国共产党关注人类前途命运，同世界上一切进步力量携手前进，中国始终是世界和平的建设者、全球发展的贡献者、国际秩序的维护者！
we must continue working to promote the building of ahuman community with a shared future. peace, concord, and harmony are ideas thechinese nation has pursued and carried forward for more than 5,000 years. thechinese nation does not carry aggressive or hegemonic traits in its genes. the partycares about the future of humanity, and wishes to move forward in tandem withall progressive forces around the world. china has always worked to safeguard worldpeace, contribute to global development, and preserve international order.
新的征程上，我们必须高举和平、发展、合作、共赢旗帜，奉行独立自主的和平外交政策，坚持走和平发展道路，推动建设新型国际关系，推动构建人类命运共同体，推动共建“一带一路”高质量发展，以中国的新发展为世界提供新机遇。中国共产党将继续同一切爱好和平的国家和人民一道，弘扬和平、发展、公平、正义、民主、自由的全人类共同价值，坚持合作、不搞对抗，坚持开放、不搞封闭，坚持互利共赢、不搞零和博弈，反对霸权主义和强权政治，推动历史车轮向着光明的目标前进！
on the journey ahead, we will remain committed topromoting peace, development, cooperation, and mutual benefit, to anindependent foreign policy of peace, and to the path of peaceful development.we will work to build a new type of international relations and a humancommunity with a shared future, promote high-quality development of the beltand road initiative through joint efforts, and use china’s new achievements in development to provide theworld with new opportunities. the party will continue to work with allpeace-loving countries and peoples to promote the shared human values of peace,development, fairness, justice, democracy, and freedom. we will continue tochampion cooperation over confrontation, to open up rather than closing ourdoors, and to focus on mutual benefits instead of zero-sum games. we willoppose hegemony and power politics, and strive to keep the wheels of historyrolling toward bright horizons.
中国人民是崇尚正义、不畏强暴的人民，中华民族是具有强烈民族自豪感和自信心的民族。中国人民从来没有欺负、压迫、奴役过其他国家人民，过去没有，现在没有，将来也不会有。同时，中国人民也绝不允许任何外来势力欺负、压迫、奴役我们，谁妄想这样干，必将在14亿多中国人民用血肉筑成的钢铁长城面前碰得头破血流！
we chinese are a people who uphold justice and arenot intimidated by threats of force. as a nation, we have a strong sense ofpride and confidence. we have never bullied, oppressed, or subjugated thepeople of any other country, and we never will. by the same token, we willnever allow any foreign force to bully, oppress, or subjugate us. anyone whowould attempt to do so will find themselves on a collision course with a greatwall of steel forged by over 1.4 billion chinese people.
——以史为鉴、开创未来，必须进行具有许多新的历史特点的伟大斗争。敢于斗争、敢于胜利，是中国共产党不可战胜的强大精神力量。实现伟大梦想就要顽强拼搏、不懈奋斗。今天，我们比历史上任何时期都更接近、更有信心和能力实现中华民族伟大复兴的目标，同时必须准备付出更为艰巨、更为艰苦的努力。
we must carry out a great struggle with manycontemporary features. having the courage to fight and the fortitude to win iswhat has made our party invincible. realizing our great dream will require hardwork and persistence. today, we are closer, more confident, and more capablethan ever before of making the goal of national rejuvenation a reality. but wemust be prepared to work harder than ever to get there.
新的征程上，我们必须增强忧患意识、始终居安思危，贯彻总体国家安全观，统筹发展和安全，统筹中华民族伟大复兴战略全局和世界百年未有之大变局，深刻认识我国社会主要矛盾变化带来的新特征新要求，深刻认识错综复杂的国际环境带来的新矛盾新挑战，敢于斗争，善于斗争，逢山开道、遇水架桥，勇于战胜一切风险挑战！
on the journey ahead, we must demonstrate strongervigilance and always be prepared for potential danger, even in times of calm. wemust adopt a holistic approach to national security that balances developmentand security imperatives, and implement the national rejuvenation strategywithin a wider context of the once-in-a-century changes taking place in theworld. we need to acquire a full understanding of the new features andrequirements arising from the change to the principal contradiction in chinesesociety and the new issues and challenges stemming from a complicatedinternational environment. we must be both brave and adept in carrying out ourstruggle, forging new paths and building new bridges wherever necessary to takeus past all risks and challenges.
——以史为鉴、开创未来，必须加强中华儿女大团结。在百年奋斗历程中，中国共产党始终把统一战线摆在重要位置，不断巩固和发展最广泛的统一战线，团结一切可以团结的力量、调动一切可以调动的积极因素，最大限度凝聚起共同奋斗的力量。爱国统一战线是中国共产党团结海内外全体中华儿女实现中华民族伟大复兴的重要法宝。
we must strengthen the great unity of the chinesepeople. in the course of our struggles over the past century, the party hasalways placed the united front in a position of importance. we have constantlyconsolidated and developed the broadest possible united front, united all theforces that can be united, mobilized all positive factors that can bemobilized, and pooled as much strength as possible for collective endeavors. thepatriotic united front is an important means for the party to unite all thesons and daughters of the chinese nation, both at home and abroad, behind thegoal of national rejuvenation.
新的征程上，我们必须坚持大团结大联合，坚持一致性和多样性统一，加强思想政治引领，广泛凝聚共识，广聚天下英才，努力寻求最大公约数、画出最大同心圆，形成海内外全体中华儿女心往一处想、劲往一处使的生动局面，汇聚起实现民族复兴的磅礴力量！
on the journey ahead, we must ensure great unity andsolidarity and balance commonality and diversity. we should strengthentheoretical and political guidance, build broad consensus, bring together thebrightest minds, and expand common ground and the convergence of interests, sothat all chinese people, both at home and overseas, can focus their ingenuityand energy on the same goal and come together as a mighty force for realizingnational rejuvenation.
——以史为鉴、开创未来，必须不断推进党的建设新的伟大工程。勇于自我革命是中国共产党区别于其他政党的显著标志。我们党历经千锤百炼而朝气蓬勃，一个很重要的原因就是我们始终坚持党要管党、全面从严治党，不断应对好自身在各个历史时期面临的风险考验，确保我们党在世界形势深刻变化的历史进程中始终走在时代前列，在应对国内外各种风险挑战的历史进程中始终成为全国人民的主心骨！
we must continue to advance the great new project ofparty building. a hallmark that distinguishes the communist party of china fromother political parties is its courage in undertaking self-reform. an importantreason why the party remains so vital and vibrant despite having undergone somany trials and tribulations is that it practices effective self-supervisionand full and rigorous self-governance. it has thus been able to respondappropriately to the risks and tests of different historical periods, to ensurethat it always remains at the forefront of the times even as profound changessweep the global landscape, and to stand firm as the backbone of the nation throughoutthe process of meeting various risks and challenges at home and abroad.
新的征程上，我们要牢记打铁必须自身硬的道理，增强全面从严治党永远在路上的政治自觉，以党的政治建设为统领，继续推进新时代党的建设新的伟大工程，不断严密党的组织体系，着力建设德才兼备的高素质干部队伍，坚定不移推进党风廉政建设和反腐败斗争，坚决清除一切损害党的先进性和纯洁性的因素，清除一切侵蚀党的健康肌体的病毒，确保党不变质、不变色、不变味，确保党在新时代坚持和发展中国特色社会主义的历史进程中始终成为坚强领导核心！
on the journey ahead, we must keep firmly in mindthe old adage that it takes a good blacksmith to make good steel. we mustdemonstrate greater political awareness of the fact that full and rigorousself-governance is a never-ending journey. with strengthening the party politicallyas our overarching principle, we must continue advancing the great new projectof party building in the new era. we must tighten the party’s organizational system, work hard to trainhigh-caliber officials who have both moral integrity and professionalcompetence, remain committed to improving party conduct, upholding integrity,and combating corruption, and root out any elements that would harm the party’s advanced nature and purity and any viruses that woulderode its health. we must ensure that the party preserves its essence, color,and character, and see that it always serves as the strong leadership core inthe course of upholding and developing socialism with chinese characteristicsin the new era.
