I’ll echo the questions ringing in the hearts and minds of Americans from here in California to my home state of Kansas and beyond:
从加利福尼亚这里到我的故乡堪萨斯州以至更远的地方，美国人心灵和脑海中萦绕着这些问题，我也要重复它们：
What do the American people have to show now 50 years on from engagement with China?
与中国接触50年后，美国人民现在有什么成果可以示人？
Did the theories of our leaders that proposed a Chinese evolution towards freedom and democracy prove to be true?
我们的领导人提出的中国朝着自由与民主演变的理论被证明是正确的吗？
Is this China’s definition of a win-win situation?
这是中国所定义的“双赢”局面吗？
And indeed, centrally, from the Secretary of State’s perspective, is America safer? Do we have a greater likelihood of peace for ourselves and peace for the generations which will follow us?
而且，从一位国务卿的视角来看，核心的是，美国更加安全了吗？我们自身以及我们后代的和平前景是不是更大了？
Look, we have to admit a hard truth. We must admit a hard truth that should guide us in the years and decades to come, that if we want to have a free 21st century, and not the Chinese century of which Xi Jinping dreams, the old paradigm of blind engagement with China simply won’t get it done. We must not continue it and we must not return to it.
我们必须承认一个无情的事实。如果我们希望有一个自由的21世纪，而不是习近平所梦想的中国世纪，我们必须承认一个无情的事实并应以此作为我们未来几年和几十年的指导：与中国盲目接触的旧模式根本做不成事。我们绝不能延续这个模式。我们绝不能重回这个模式。
