During a luncheon with U.S. business leaders on Thursday, Chinese leader Hu Jintao reiterated a theme that has been playing over state-run newspapers and television in China—that U.S.-China relations must be “based on mutual respect and mutual benefit.”
在星期四和美國商界的午宴期間，胡錦濤在中方的報紙和電視前，重申中美之間的關係，必須建立在相互尊重和相互利益的基礎上。
And to be clear, Hu gave two examples, saying Tibet and Taiwan are (quote) “issues that concern China’s territorial integrity and China’s core interests.”
為了更清楚，胡錦濤舉了兩個例子，說：「西藏和臺灣議題是關係到中國土地的完整，與中國的核心利益。」
Hu said tensions would be strained if the United States continued selling weapons to Taiwan. In other words, he was warning the U.S. to stay out.
胡錦濤說，如果美國繼續輸送武器給臺灣，將會使關係更加緊繃 。換句話，他警告美國，必須置身事外。
Just a few hours before Hu’s address, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi had challenged him over the Tibet issue and the ongoing detention of Nobel Peace Prize winner Liu Xiaobo.
就在胡演講的前幾個小時，眾議院少數黨領袖南茜培羅斯，在西藏問題和拘禁諾貝爾得獎劉曉波事件上，對胡挑戰。
And a day earlier, President Barack Obama had brought up the issues of Tibet and the Dalai Lama during a press conference with Hu.
前一天，奧巴馬在和胡的新聞發佈會上，提出了關於西藏和達賴喇嘛的問題。
The luncheon in Washington, D.C., was held in Hu’s honor, hosted by the National Committee on United States-China Relations and the US-China Business Council.
在華盛頓D.C.，由中美關係國家委員會和中美商業理事會所舉辦的國宴，是給胡錦濤的尊崇待遇。
