Part I

And today, we have the opportunity to take the next steps.

今天，我们有机会来采取以后的步骤。

We have the opportunity, as individual nations, to take specific and concrete actions to secure the nuclear materials in our countries and to prevent illicit trafficking and smuggling. That will be our focus this morning.

世界各国都有机会采取具体、切实的步骤来保障其国内核材料的安全，防止非法贩运和走私，这将是我们今天上午讨论的重点。

We have the opportunity to strengthen the International Atomic Energy Agency, the IAEA, with the resources and authorities it needs to meet its responsibilities. That will be our focus at our working lunch.

我们有机会给予国际原子能机构（IAEA）履行其职责所需的更多资源和权力，以增强其功能，这将是我们工作午餐的主题。

We have the opportunity, as an international community, to deepen our cooperation and to strengthen the institutions and partnerships that help prevent nuclear materials from ever falling into the hands of terrorists. And that will be our focus this afternoon.

国际社会有机会深化我们之间的合作并强化各种机制和伙伴关系，确保核材料永远不致落入恐怖分子之手，这将是我们今天下午讨论的重点。

And we have the opportunity, as partners, to ensure that our progress is not a fleeting moment, but part of a serious and sustained effort. And that's why I am so pleased to announce that President Lee has agreed to host the next Nuclear Security Summit in the Republic of Korea in two years. This reflects South Korea's leadership, regionally and globally, and I thank President Lee and the South Korean people for their willingness to accept this responsibility.

作为合作伙伴，我们都有机会参与，以保证我们所取得的进展不是昙花一现，而是一项认真、持久的努力的一部分。因此，我很高兴地在此宣布，李总统同意两年后在韩国主持下一届核安全峰会。这项承诺体现了韩国在地区和全球事务中所发挥的领导作用。我感谢李总统和韩国人民乐于承担这项责任。

I'd ask President Lee just to say a few words.

下面我请李总统讲几句话。

PRESIDENT LEE: Thank you for all colleagues for supporting Korea to host next summit in 2012.

感谢所有支持韩国在2012年主持下一届核安全峰会的同事们。

I assure you I will do best to make this summit a success. So I hope to see all of you in Korea. Thank you. (Appause.)

我向各位保证我将尽最大的努力使峰会圆满成功，我也希望在韩国与大家再次见面。谢谢。

THE PRESIDENT: Thank you very much.

总统：非常感谢。

So today is an opportunity -- not simply to talk, but to act. Not simply to make pledges, but to make real progress on the security of our people. All this, in turn, requires something else, which is something more fundamental. It will require a new mindset -- that we summon the will, as nations and as partners, to do what this moment in history demands.

因此，今天是一个机会，不只是一个讨论的机会，还是一个行动的机会。不只是作出承诺，还要在保障我们各国人民的安全方面取得切实进展。而所有这一切又对我们提出了另一项要求，一项更关键的要求。要求我们有一种新思维——要求世界各国作为合作伙伴下定决心，响应这一历史时刻的召唤。

I believe strongly that the problems of the 21st century cannot be solved by any one nation acting in isolation. They must be solved by all of us coming together.

我深信，21世纪的诸多问题不可能由任何一个国家单枪匹马地解决，我们只有齐心合力才能解决这些问题。

At the dawn of the nuclear age that he helped to unleash, Albert Einstein said: "Now everything has changed…" And he warned: "We are drifting towards a catastrophe beyond comparison. We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive."

在他帮助开创的核时代来临之际，阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦说：“现在，一切都改变了……”。他还警告说：“我们正在向一场无法比拟的灾难滑落。如果人类要生存下去，我们将需要一种近乎全新的思维方式”。

That truth endures today. For the sake of our common security, for the sake of our survival, we cannot drift. We need a new manner of thinking -- and action. That is the challenge before us. And I thank all of you for being here to confront that challenge together, in partnership.

今天，这一真理仍然具有现实意义。为了我们的共同安全，为了我们的继续生存，我们不能再继续滑落，我们需要新思维，并且需要行动。这就是我们面临的挑战。我感谢各位来到这里作为合作伙伴共同应对这一挑战。

And with that, I'm going to ask that we take a few moments to allow the press to exit before our first session.

我的讲话就到这里，下面我们稍等一下，待记者们退场后再开始第一次会议。
