中日应避免“擦枪走火”

　　全国政协委员、中国驻日本大使程永华在接受新华社记者专访时表示，当前中日关系处于1972年邦交正常化以来的低谷，解铃还需系铃人，希望日方正视历史和现实，拿出诚意，与中方共同努力找到妥善解决和管控钓鱼岛问题的有效办法。

　　他强调，当前要加强危机管控，防止“擦枪走火，共同推动两国关系逐步回到健康稳定发展轨道。

　　由于近期日本政府在钓鱼岛等问题上的错误言行，当前中日关系面临严峻局面。程永华说，中方一贯主张在中日政府间四个政治文件原则基础上，通过对话磋商解决分歧，希望就建立危机管控机制与日方进行沟通，以免出现不测事态。

　　“但是，日本政府对窃取中国钓鱼岛的历史视而不见，对40年前两国领导人达成的谅解不予承认，对日本民众要求改善中日关系的呼声置若罔闻，在双方有关对话磋商中缺乏诚意，致使磋商沟通未取得实质进展。程永华说。

　　“钓鱼岛问题是日本前任政府挑起的，新当选的安倍政府在应对上也存在问题，使得钓鱼岛问题成为两国关系改善面临的最大困难。程永华说，“面对日方挑衅，中方采取了维护主权的措施，派出公务船在钓鱼岛海域进行常态化巡航，行使中方的固有权利。

　　对于日方炒作“中国军舰火控雷达瞄准日军舰飞机，程永华说：“经过认真调查核实，日方的指控毫无道理，完全是无中生有。

　　他说，日方绕过正常外交渠道，召集媒体单方面对外抛出有关言论，其目的是制造地区紧张气氛，煽动日本民众情绪，误导国际舆论，抹黑中国形象。不仅如此，日方还对正常执行任务的中国海军舰机长期近距离跟踪干扰，对中日海上安全造成破坏。

　　对于担任驻日大使，程永华直言：“工作复杂、敏感，难度很大。我从事对日工作近40年，从中日邦交正常化到双方建立战略互惠关系，期间虽有起伏，但和平友好的大方向是不变的。当前两国关系因‘购岛’事件遭到破坏，民众感情产生对立倾向，令人痛心。但我对中日关系未来友好发展的前景仍然感到乐观。

　　程永华指出，中日分别是世界第二和第三大经济体，中国重视发展中日关系，愿意与其友好相处。从两国交往历史来看，和则两利，斗则两伤。中日邦交正常化40多年来，双边贸易额从10亿美元增加到3400多亿美元，双向人员往来从1万人次增至500多万人次，缔结友好城市达250对。

　　程永华说，钓鱼岛等问题的发生，对两国各领域交流合作负面影响已经显现。据统计，去年“购岛事件发生后，双方游客人数下降了30%左右，特别是团体旅游下降幅度更是高达70%以上。

　　“中国坚持和平发展，但在涉及国家领土主权的问题上，绝不会退让半步。中国政府和人民有决心、有能力维护国家的领土主权和海洋权益。他说：“希望日本新政府与中方共同努力，通过对话磋商找到妥善解决领土争端的方法。

　　A member of the CPPCC National Committee, the Chinese ambassador to Japan Cheng Yonghua said in an exclusive interview with Xinhua, the current Sino-Japanese relations since the normalization of diplomatic relations in 1972 trough, dog that fetches will carry., hope that the Japanese side to face up to history and reality, take out sincerity, to work together with China to find an effective way to solve and control the Diaoyu islands.

　　He said, the Japanese side bypass the normal diplomatic channels, called unilateral foreign media throws the speech, its purpose is to make regional tensions, inciting the Japanese public sentiment, misleading international public opinion, to smear China's image. Not only such, Chinese naval ship machine Japan also on the normal mission prolonged close tracking interference, causing damage to the Sino-Japanese maritime safety. "

The relations between the two countries ' purchase ' event because of destruction of public feelings, opposing tendencies, sad. But my prospects for the future development of the friendly Sino-Japanese relations remain optimistic. "

From the history of exchanges between the two countries, and will benefit both, bucket two injuries. Normalization of Sino-Japanese diplomatic relations 40 years ago, bilateral trade volume has increased from $1000000000 to $about 340000000000, bilateral personnel exchanges from 10000 to about 5000000, 250 to establish friendly city.

According to statistics, last year the " purchase island" after the incident, both the number of visitors declined about 30%, especially the group travel decline rate is up to more than 70%.

　　" China is committed to peaceful development, but in relation to national sovereignty and territorial issues, will never give an inch. The Chinese government and people have the determination, ability to safeguard national territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests. " He said: "I hope the new Japanese government to work together with China, find a way to resolve territorial disputes through dialogue and consultation. "
