2019年8月15日外交部发言人华春莹答记者问。

　　Q: On August 14, US President Trump said in his tweets that "Of course China wants to make a deal. Let them work humanely with Hong Kong first." He also suggested a possible meeting with the Chinese leader. I wonder what is China's comment?

　　问：14日，美国总统特朗普连续发推特称，中国当然想达成贸易协议，让他们先人道地应对香港吧。他还提及可能与中国领导人会晤。中方对此有何评论？

　　A: Hong Kong affairs are entirely China's internal affairs. As we noted, President Trump also said previously that "Hong Kong is a part of China. They'll have to deal with that themselves. They don't need advice." We hope the US side will keep its word.

　　答：香港事务纯属中国内政。我们注意到，特朗普总统此前也曾表示，“香港是中国的一部分，他们必须自己解决，不需要建议”。我们希望美方说到做到。

　　China holds a consistent and clear position on China-US trade talks. We hope the US can work in concert with China to implement the two Presidents' consensus that was reached in Osaka, and to work out a mutually acceptable solution through equal-footed dialogue and consultation with mutual respect.

　　中方对中美经贸磋商的立场是一贯和明确的。我们希望美方与中方相向而行，落实两国元首大阪会晤共识，在平等和相互尊重的基础上，通过对话磋商找到彼此都能接受的解决办法。

　　Regarding high-level communication, the Chinese and US Presidents have remained in contact with each other via meetings, phone calls and letters.

　　关于中美高层交往，中美元首一直通过会晤、通话、通信等方式保持着沟通。
