Policy Dialogue on Asian Affairs
At the Fourth Trilateral Summit Meeting in May 2011, China put forward the proposal of holding a Trilateral Policy Dialogue on Asian Affairs, which was positively responded to and supported by Japan and the ROK. In March 2012, the First Trilateral Policy Dialogue on Asian Affairs was held in Beijing, during which senior officials of the three countries exchanged views on the situation in Asia as well as international and regional hotspot issues. The three countries shared the view that consultation on Asian policies and timely communication and coordination on Asian affairs could help them better understand each other’s Asian policies and build up mutual trust. The three countries agreed to keep the momentum of consultation and continue to explore ways for enhancing communication and cooperation in Asian affairs.
亚洲政策磋商
在2011年5月第四次中日韩领导人会议上，中国提议举行三国亚洲政策磋商，日韩予以响应和支持。2012年3月，首次中日韩亚洲政策磋商在北京举行。三国高官重点就亚洲地区形势、国际和地区热点问题交换了意见。三方认为，举行亚洲政策磋商，及时就亚洲事务沟通协调，有助于加深对各自亚洲政策的了解，有助于增进信任。三方同意保持磋商势头，继续探讨在亚洲事务上加强沟通与合作。
