　　答：欧亚地区国家都积极支持并踊跃参与丝绸之路经济带建设。近年来，有关国家在原有连接中国东北和华北的跨西伯利亚大铁路、新欧亚大陆桥(起自连云港，经新疆、哈萨克斯坦、俄罗斯到欧洲)基础上，相继开通了渝新欧(重庆-新疆-哈萨克斯坦-俄罗斯-欧洲)、郑新欧(郑州-新疆-哈萨克斯坦-俄罗斯-欧洲)等货运班列。这是丝绸之路经济带建设基础设施互联互通和贸易畅通的重要方面。对于你提到乌方同有关国家开通的新线路，中方同样表示欢迎。

　　我们认为，要从根源上解决叙利亚难民问题，必须尽快实现叙利亚问题的政治解决。目前，叙利亚问题政治解决面临着难得的“窗口期”，叙利亚政府同反对派将在联合国主持下于近期启动和谈，中方对此表示欢迎和支持。我们呼吁国际社会共同维护当前的积极势头，推动谈判双方从叙利亚国家长远大局出发，从叙利亚人民根本利益出发，展现灵活、求同化异，不断积累和扩大共识，坚持谈下去，谈出结果来。中方也将一如既往为推动叙利亚问题的政治解决发挥积极和建设性的作用。
　　We believe that in order to fundamentally resolve the issue of Syrian refugees, a political settlement of the Syrian issue must be reached at an early date. A rare window of opportunity for that has presented itself. The Syrian government and the opposition 20 will start peace talks very soon under the auspices 21 of the UN. China welcomes and supports that. We call on the international community to jointly 22 maintain this positive momentum 23 and encourage the two negotiating parties to bear in mind the long-term interests of the state and the fundamental interests of the Syrian people, show flexibility 24, seek common ground while narrowing down differences, accumulate and expand consensus, and keep the talks going until they reach some results. The Chinese side will continue to play a positive and constructive 25 role in moving the Syrian issue towards a political settlement.
