「双语」例行记者会/RegularPressConference（2021-12-10）(6)

实现民主要讲平等，而不能高人一等；要讲法治，而不能霸凌胁迫；要讲团结，而不能对立对抗。自封为“民主灯塔”的国家，恰恰是民主病态尽显、民主赤字高企的国家。对全球民主的最大威胁不是来自别的地方，恰恰来自那些打着民主旗号肆意干涉别国内政、任意施加单边制裁、到处进行军事干涉的国家。
To realize democracy, there must be equality rather than superiority, rule of law rather than bullying and coercion, and solidarity rather than confrontation. The self-styled “beacon of democracy” has evident democratic malaise and huge democratic deficits. The countries that pose the greatest threat to global democracy are exactly those that interfere in others’ internal affairs, arbitrarily impose unilateral sanctions, and carry out military interventions across the world.
事实早已证明，把一国的民主模式强加给世界根本行不通。美国试图按照美式标准把世界划分为“民主”和“非民主”两大阵营，公然挑动分裂和对抗。这种行径只会给世界带来更大的动荡和灾难，必然受到国际社会的强烈谴责和反对。
Facts have proven long ago that exerting one’s own model of democracy on the world doesn’t work. The US tries to divide the world into “democratic” and “undemocratic” camps by its own standard, and blatantly instigates division and confrontation. Such practice will only cause more turmoil and disasters to the world, and will meet strong condemnation and opposition from the international community.
