Dialectics of War and Peace

Updated:2021-11-05 | By:China.org.cn

Dialectics of War and Peace

Addressing the plenary meeting of the PLA delegates to the first session of the 12th NPC on March 11, 2013, Xi Jinping explained the dialectic of war and peace, which tells us that only those who can fight can stop war, and only when we are prepared for war can we prevent war from happening, and that war will be upon us if we are weak.

Today, while the forces that promote peace and prevent war are on the rise, the world still faces actual and potential threats of war. Peace can only be ensured by strength. Only the ability to win wars can deter wars.

The Chinese people love peace, and will never waver in their pursuit of peaceful development. China’s armed forces are always a pillar of world peace. Chinacraves peace, but our legitimate rights and core national interests are non-negotiable. WhileChina will never seek hegemony or expansion, or engage in aggression, we will have to fight back and win if a war is imposed on us. 

战争与和平的辩证法

2013年3月11日,习近平在十二届全国人大一次会议解放军代表团全体会议上指出,能战方能止战,准备打才可能不必打,越不能打越可能挨打,这就是战争与和平的辩证法。当今世界,维护和平的力量在上升,制约战争的因素在增多,但是世界依然面临现实和潜在的战争威胁,和平必须以强大实力为后盾,能打赢才能有力遏制战争。中国人民珍爱和平,坚定不移走和平发展道路,中国军队始终是维护世界和平的坚定力量。中国渴望和平,但决不会因此而放弃我们的正当权益,决不会拿国家的核心利益做交易。中国决不干称王称霸的事,决不会搞侵略扩张,但如果有人要把战争强加到我们头上,我们必须能决战决胜。
