《傅莹:朝核问题和平解决的机遇之窗》

【中国外交部前副部长、中国社科院国家全球战略智库首席专家傅莹,应约为美国《华盛顿邮报》撰写关于朝核问题的评论文章,本文为中文版。】

外交成功的基础是了解和理解对方,唯此方能在谈判中做出正确判断,采取正确步骤。

两千多年前,中国古代哲学家庄子在辩论中遇到过这样的问题:" 子非鱼,焉知鱼之乐?"。与美国人讨论朝核问题时,我常引用这个典故,因为美国人常倾向于用自己的假设去推断朝鲜。

比如认为,朝鲜追求的终极目的是拥核,安全关切只是借口。何以见得呢,核武器不能当饭吃,如果朝鲜能够获得安全的生存和发展环境,为什么不能放弃导致外部环境严重恶化和国家陷入被制裁深渊的核武器呢?然而,如果国家安全不保,朝鲜必铤而走险地坚持拥核道路。这正是过去 15 年我们所看到的半岛安全困境。

现在,朝核问题出现了难得的和平解决机会。历史上,能够引发好结果的多种条件同时出现是比较罕见的,而现在我们正目睹这样的景观。

首先,韩国总统文在寅是理念和平主义者,上任之初就积极倡议和平对话,主动向北方送出和谈的橄榄枝,就像没有系安全带就从高空跳下。所幸有人接住了,朝鲜抓住了文在寅伸出的和平之手。2017 年 9 月朝鲜第六次核试之后,声称达到威慑目标,显然,进一步发展核技术很难,需要顺势进入集中精力发展经济的轨道,这个和平转机恰逢其时。

金正恩、特朗普分别抵达新加坡

而中方的立场是连贯的,一直坚持以和平方式实现半岛无核化的立场,反对半岛生战生乱,积极推动美国和朝鲜走上和平谈判的路径。目前的事态完全符合中方一直以来所主张和支持的方向,中方在其中发挥的促进作用相当关键。

现在看来,经过几个月的磨合和反复,朝美首脑会晤将于 6 月 12 日在新加坡举行,机遇之窗即将打开。双方为此已做出过去难以想象的让步。国际社会期待会晤取得蓬佩奥国务卿称之为 " 重大而大胆的 " 好结果。

诚然,天下没有免费的午餐。在这样的大难题面前,任何一方要想实现自己的意图,都要做出调整和让步,大家都要相互妥协。对朝鲜而言,此事关乎生死,会很认真,但也会很脆弱、敏感和紧张。金正恩追求的,跟他祖父和父亲时代孜孜以求的都是一样的,就是国家安全和政权安全。朝鲜发展核武器是为此,放弃核武器也是为了实现这个目标,因此,朝鲜的路数是清楚的。

美方的路数是否清楚呢?美国人对核问题有相当透彻的分析,对弃核步骤和方式也有具体要求,但是很少听到美国人讲自己准备为换取朝鲜弃核付出什么样的代价。当美国人提出要一步到位地实现弃核(front-loading)时,是否考虑过如何一步到位地解决朝鲜的安全关切?当美方希望朝鲜在短时间内 " 永久性 " 地实现弃核时,是否想到朝鲜的安全能永久性地得到保障吗?这些问题呼唤同理心,需要各方都能进行双向考虑。无论会晤的锣鼓敲得多么响亮,任何一方若只想索取而不想付出,就有可能再现过去的反复。

特朗普与金正恩的会面不难取得成功。他们见面本身就能向世界展现和平的功绩,甚至可能达成新的协议,开启一个重要的进程。

此刻各方都需要避免提出现阶段不可能实现的要求,把自己困住。应该留一些空间,让彼此都舒适,使得这个进程可以继续,这样就很了不起了。半岛问题经历 60 多年的复杂演进,冰冻三尺非一日之寒,需要善心、耐心和恒心。

中国的作用可以用 " 锚定 " 来形容。中国始终是推进和平、反对战争的坚定力量,朝核问题的和平解决符合中国和本地区各方的根本利益。中方将继续为未来半岛的和解与和平发展发挥积极推动和保障作用。同时,中方也需要为和谈脱轨的可能性做充分准备,继续发挥 " 锚定 " 作用,避免形势再次滑向冲突的危险方向。

对中国人来说,半岛和平是我们的根本愿望,期待看到朝鲜人民走上经济发展的道路。这次机遇是历史性的,希望各方都能抓牢。(完)

At the North Korea summit, empathy is the key

by Fu Ying

Fu Ying is China ’ s former vice foreign minister and was once a member of China ’ s delegation in the six-party talks on North Korea.

BEIJING — One of the important conditions for diplomatic success is to understand the other party, so as to form the right judgement and the right moves in negotiations.

In the 4th century B.C., Zhuangzi, an ancient Chinese philosopher, was challenged with the following question, "As you are not a fish, how can you say this fish is happy?" I often quote this when discussing the Korean nuclear issue with Americans, as I often have found them judging Pyongyang with their own assumptions.

For example, some have asserted that North Korea ’ s ultimate objective is to possess nuclear weapons and that talk about their security concerns is merely an excuse. Why would that be the case? Nuclear weapons are not food. If North Korea can be assured of its survival and opportunities for development, why wouldn ’ t it want to give up the nuclear weapons that have only gotten them mired in sanctions and confronted with a worsening environment? A North Korea in a constant state of insecurity would only go down further along the dangerous track of nuclear development. This has been the security dilemma that we have seen on the Korean Peninsula over the past 15 years.

Now, an unprecedented opportunity for peaceful resolution has emerged. We are witnessing a confluence of multiple favorable factors rarely seen in history and that may lead to a positive outcome.

First, South Korean President Moon Jae-in is a man of peaceful convictions. He began calling for peace and dialogue shortly after taking office last year, extending an uninvited olive branch to North Korea. In the context of the Korean Peninsula, this is like a bungee jump without a rope. Fortunately, he was caught safely by Pyongyang, which did not let go of his outstretched hand of peace. Following its sixth nuclear test in September 2017, North Korea claimed that it had reached its target of nuclear deterrence. Since then, the state has announced it would shift its focus to economic development. This turning point could not have come at a better time.

More importantly, we have also seen a turn of mind in the U.S. perception of the Korean nuclear issue. The Donald Trump administration came to realize the serious consequences of the approach taken by the previous administrations, which was characterized by pressure alone without serious peace talks. U.S. policymakers have also acknowledged the huge cost of war after toying with the military option and other tough measures.

On the one hand, the Trump administration slapped down more stringent sanctions on North Korea to impose more pain. Yet at the same time, it has gone further than any previous administrations in terms of the earnestness and consistency of its openness to engagement. Former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson ’ s "four nos" commitment — that the United States was not seeking regime change in Pyongyang, nor collapse of the North Korean state, nor premature reunification with South Korea, nor sending American forces into North Korea — gave the North Koreans the respect for which they longed. That statement was not lost on their leadership.

China ’ s position has been consistent. China is firmly committed to a nuclear-free Korean Peninsula reached through peaceful means and is opposed to war and chaos on the peninsula. The fact that Pyongyang and the United States are embarking on a journey of peaceful negotiations is in the right direction — a direction China has all along called for and has played a vital role in making possible.

Indeed, success of the summit between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is not impossible. Both sides have made previously unimaginable concessions to make this happen. The summit may even lead to a new agreement and usher in an important stabilizing process.

Naturally, there ’ s no such thing as a free lunch. When faced with such a grave challenge, all parties need to make adjustments and compromises if they wish to achieve their respective objectives. For North Korea, this is a matter of life or death, and it will certainly take a very serious approach. Yet, it will be vulnerable, touchy and nervous at the same time. What Kim Jong Un has been after is no different from what his father and even grandfather had always wanted: national and regime security. No matter what North Korea does — be it nuclear development or abandonment — it would be for the same purpose. So, Pyongyang ’ s calculations are not difficult to gauge.

But what do we know about the U.S. approach? The Americans have been working on a thorough analysis of the nuclear issue and have detailed requirements as to how denuclearization should take place. But we rarely hear what they are ready to offer to North Korea in return. When the Americans propose a front-loaded denuclearization, have they thought about how to "front-load" North Korea ’ s security concern? When the United States demands that Pyongyang ’ s denuclearization be "immediate" and "permanent," have they considered how to "permanently" guarantee Pyongyang ’ s security? The key is whether the parties can have empathy and step into the other ’ s shoes for a moment.

The parties are well-advised to avoid trapping themselves by making demands that are impossible to meet at the current stage. Some room should be left to make both parties comfortable enough to allow the process to proceed, which would be a remarkable achievement in itself. As the Chinese saying goes, "Three feet of ice does not form in a single cold day." As the Korean nuclear issue has undergone a complicated evolution over many decades, its solution will take goodwill, patience and perseverance.

As a firm proponent of peace and a voice against war, China ’ s role has been similar to an anchor which moors the resolution of this conflict to a peaceful course. We will continue to actively encourage and facilitate conciliation. To play the stabilizing role of an anchor, however, China also needs to be ready for a possible derailing of the talks and be prepared to prevent the boat from drifting or even capsizing.

For the Chinese people, a peaceful Korean Peninsula is our fundamental aspiration. We would like to see the people of North Korea able to embark on a path of economic development. We sincerely hope that the parties rise to the challenge of this historic moment.

《从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机,里面是这样的》

昨天,举世瞩目的“特金会”在新加坡举行,而我国官方媒体也确认,朝鲜最高领导人系搭乘由中国民航提供服务的中国国际航空B-2447号波音747-400客机从平壤前往新加坡。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

这架飞机于1995年2月交付,平时执行客运航班,但也曾被我们国家第3、4、5代领导人选为出访专机。算上这次的任务,它已经接待过至少4位国家级最高领导人,至少在我国境内“无机能及”。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

B-2447是一架波音747-400客机,长70.66米,翼展64.44米,高19.4米,航程13490公里,国航版载客350人左右。图自网友@威猛

巧合的是,今年1月,小语恰好搭乘它完成了一次京沪飞行并发表体验。今天,我们再次整理当时的照片,为大家展示这架飞机的内部。值得一提的是,飞机在执行重要任务前可能会进行改装,因此我们展示的景象不代表其服务“特金会”时候的情形。

乘客通过廊桥,从机翼前登机口登机。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

一进入飞机,就能看到通往二楼的直梯。遗憾的是,购买的经济舱机票,没法上楼查看商务舱~

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

沿着长长的过道,向在机尾的座位走去,旁边是充满历史感的头顶行李架。现在的波音飞机,无论大小,都已经改用曲线外形、关上后与天花板合成一体的新产品。眼前这种棱角分明的老行李架,正在逐渐退出舞台。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

中间和两侧的行李架开启方式还不一样

B-2447经济舱一排10座,波音747的标准布局。没有个人娱乐系统,只有老式的公用显示器。对于90年代制造的客机,这属于标准配置,不像“2000后”飞机,满眼的个人娱乐系统屏幕。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

得益于宽敞的机身,飞机下层经济舱的舱壁几乎是垂直的,乘客无论肩膀还是头部都没有压抑的感觉。客观说,747空间舒适感,比现在某些机型不知高到哪里去了。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

很有年代感的头顶阅读灯,方形,黑框,现在也不多见了。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

看看窗外,23年的老飞机,窗户甚至比一些几个月机龄的飞机还要干净,维护用心可见一斑。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

请忽略手机拍摄的噪点。窗户真的很通透

后舱门。舱门下半部分用来安装充气滑梯的巨大凸出,很有让人忍不住坐上去的冲动(勿坐)。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

飞机不年轻了,但卫生间依旧干净整洁,井井有条。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

回到座位坐下。座椅前后间距一般,不觉得挤,也不能完全舒展开身子。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

旁边的人还没登机,抓紧拍一张。B-2447虽然很多设备是老款式,但经济舱椅套已经是国航现款了。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

安全须知。手机(还是古董大哥大造型)依然属于“禁用”之列,尽管实际上已经放开了。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机
那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

座椅扶手上还保留着烟灰盒。B-2447加入国航的时候,中国民航已经禁烟了,保留烟灰盒一是因为产品“惯性”,另外也是让机组“捉住”抽烟乘客之后,有地方可以灭烟。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

看完安全须知录像,飞机就要起飞了,基本正点。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

很多刚才空着的椅子都坐上了人。京沪线,几乎不会缺乏客源。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

起飞了,昏暗的客舱里一片寂静,没有喧哗、没有吵闹,如果仔细听,隐约有急促敲击键盘的声音。那是忍住困意,在争分夺秒工作的乘客。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

特地给大叔的屏幕打了码。我们抒发情感也要讲究基本法,不能暴露人家隐私

放眼望去,机舱里很多人头发已经花白。大家或奋笔疾书,或闭眼小憩,享受激荡人生中片刻的安静。过去这些年,大家经历了很多,人如此,飞机也是……

小小回顾一下历史,1997年,初出茅庐的B-2447曾掠过香港九龙的高楼大厦,与启德机场亲密接触。

2005年,风华正茂的B-2447与建设中的首都机场T3合影。

帅气的外形抵挡不了岁月流逝,也改变不了被后续产品替代的自然规律。根据计划,包括B-2447在内的国航波音747-400客机可能都在几年内退役,真的是飞一次少一次了。

发餐的广播打断了思绪。烧饼+饮料,就是国航非餐时段京沪线的标配了。这个标准可能是低一些,但算是问题么?未必。毕竟大家是去办公出差的,有的是机会吃大餐,何必太在意机上这一顿?更何况现在根本不是饭点……

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

小吃一些,再接上耳机听听节目,黑暗中,飞机很快就要到达了。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

落地无言。远机位,雨,一丝惆怅的味道。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

下飞机路过厨房。执行专机飞行的时候,食物也是在这里准备的。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机
那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

厨房还有咖啡机。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

从后往前走,穿过整个经济舱,就来到头等舱区域。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

在国航机队甚至整个中国民航当中,这款头等舱只能在波音747-400飞机上看见。有网友戏称配色是“三文鱼”。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

“三文鱼”座椅有一项独门秘籍:旋转。起降时候朝向正前,放平休息时旋转一个角度对正脚垫,办公写作的时候转向正侧方的台面。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

头等舱再向前,就到了飞机最靠前的部分,那里是商务舱区域(整个二层也是商务舱)。

商务舱刚刚有客人使用,略显凌乱。乘务员曾经提议稍微收拾一下再拍照,但我觉得还是把最真实的一面留下来比较好。或许未来某一天回头看今天飞机航后的样子,别有一番感受呢~嗯,这个乱,真不要怪乘务组

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

当然,总体收拾齐整的椅子也还是有的。这款老式的商务舱座椅不能放平,舒适度与今天的产品也没法相比。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

这时候,基本就差我一人没下飞机了。让一摆渡车的人等着我,实在不好意思,于是赶快离开,留下没能参观二层机舱的遗憾,待下次弥补吧!这是舷梯上拍的发动机。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

摆渡车旁拍的,747标志性的“大鹅头”,在雨中特别精神。

那架从平壤飞往新加坡的中国专机

上面的图文完成于今年一月,没想到几个月之后,B-2447还将为世界和平承担重任。这是这架飞机的骄傲,也是中国民航的骄傲。

预祝一路顺利。
