在哈爾濱第九屆亞洲冬季運動會開幕式歡迎宴會上的致辭

（2025年2月7日，哈爾濱）

中華人民共和國主席　習近平

尊敬的各位同事，

尊敬的巴赫主席、霍震霆副主席，

女士們，先生們，朋友們：

在中國人民歡度新春佳節之際，我謹代表中國政府和中國人民，並以我和我夫人的名義，對各位來賓的到來表示熱烈歡迎！向大家致以美好的新春祝福！

第九屆亞洲冬季運動會聖火將在今晚點燃。從北京冬奧會到哈爾濱亞冬會，中國“冰雪熱”傳遍大江南北，也為世界冰雪運動注入生機活力。本屆參賽國家和地區數量、運動員人數都創亞冬會歷史之最。我相信，在亞奧理事會和各國各地區代表團共同努力下，哈爾濱將為世界呈現一屆“中國特色、亞洲風采、精彩紛呈”的體育盛會，譜寫新的冰雪華章。

本屆亞冬會的主題是“冰雪同夢、亞洲同心”，承載著亞洲人民對於和平、發展、友誼的共同願望和追求。

我們要堅守安寧和睦的共同夢想。和平如同冰雪般純潔。無論國際風雲如何變幻，我們都要攜手應對各類安全挑戰，為平等有序的世界多極化貢獻亞洲力量。

我們要堅持繁榮發展的共同追求。冰雪運動的魅力，關鍵在激情和協作。我們要攜手共進、共謀發展，為普惠包容的經濟全球化注入不竭動力。

我們要實現交融相親的共同心願。紛飛的雪花千姿百態，不同文明也各具風采。亞洲是世界多彩文明的匯聚之地，我們要推動彼此包容共存、交流互鑒，為人類文明發展進步作出更大貢獻。

女士們、先生們、朋友們！

哈爾濱是中國著名的“冰城”，是中國現代冰雪運動的發源地。來到哈爾濱，我們真切感受到“冰天雪地也是金山銀山”，冰雪文化和冰雪經濟正在成為哈爾濱高品質發展的新動能和對外開放的新紐帶。歡迎大家暢遊這片熱情洋溢、開放包容的黑土地，追尋中國式現代化足跡。

中國剛剛迎來農曆蛇年。在中國傳統十二生肖中，蛇象徵著智慧和機敏，蛇年必將充滿生機活力。祝願運動健兒們在賽場上如靈蛇矯健、勇創佳績，也祝願大家在這裡留下美好難忘的冰雪記憶。

現在，我提議，大家共同舉杯，

為本屆亞冬會取得圓滿成功，

為國際奧林匹克運動蓬勃發展，

為亞洲人民團結和友誼，

為各位嘉賓和家人的健康，

乾杯！

Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife, Peng Liyuan, on Friday hosted a banquet in China's northeastern city of Harbin to welcome international dignitaries who are here to attend the opening ceremony of the 9th Asian Winter Games.

The following is the full text of Xi's remarks at the banquet:

Remarks by H.E. Xi Jinping

President of the People's Republic of China

At the Welcoming Banquet of the Opening Ceremony

Of the Ninth Asian Winter Games Harbin

Harbin, February 7, 2025

Distinguished Colleagues,

Your Excellency IOC President Thomas Bach,

Your Excellency OCA Vice President Timothy Tsun Ting Fok,

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Friends,

As the Chinese people celebrate the Spring Festival, I wish to extend, on behalf of the Chinese government and people, and also in the name of my wife and myself, a warm welcome and festive greetings to all the distinguished guests!

The cauldron of the Ninth Asian Winter Games will be lit tonight. From the Olympic Winter Games Beijing to the Asian Winter Games Harbin, the passion in China for ice and snow has swept across the nation. It has also invigorated winter sports around the world. The current Asian Winter Games sets a new record in its history in the numbers of participating countries, regions and athletes. I believe that with the joint efforts of the Olympic Council of Asia and delegations from all participating countries and regions, Harbin will present to the world a great sports event that is distinctly Chinese, uniquely Asian and spectacular, thus writing a new, magnificent chapter of ice and snow sports.

The theme of the Ninth Asian Winter Games -- "Dream of Winter, Love among Asia" -- embodies the shared aspiration and desire of the Asian people for peace, development and friendship.

We should uphold our shared dream for tranquility and harmony. Peace is as pure as ice and snow. No matter how the international landscape evolves, we should join hands together to meet all kinds of security challenges and contribute Asian strength to building an equal and orderly multipolar world.

We should pursue our shared aspiration for prosperity and development. Winter sports are fascinating because they require passion and collaboration. We should work together to promote progress and development, and provide sustained drive for a universally beneficial and inclusive economic globalization.

We should fulfill our shared desire for friendship and affinity. Every snowflake is unique, and every civilization is distinctive. Asia is a convergence of the world's diverse civilizations. We should promote inclusiveness, coexistence and mutual learning, and contribute more to the development and progress of human civilization.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Friends,

Harbin, the renowned "Ice City," is the birthplace of China's modern winter sports. We feel truly in here that ice and snow are as valuable as gold and silver. The ice and snow culture and economy are becoming a new driving force for the high-quality development of Harbin and a new bond linking the city and the world. We welcome you to explore this hospitable, open and inclusive land of black soil, and to trace the path of Chinese modernization.

China has just entered the Year of the Snake. Among the 12 animals in the Chinese zodiac, the snake represents wisdom and agility. The Year of the Snake will surely brim with vigor and vitality. I wish all athletes excellent performance with the agility of the snake. May you all have beautiful and unforgettable memories of ice and snow in Harbin.

Now, I would like to propose a toast:

To the great success of the Ninth Asian Winter Games;

To the dynamic development of the Olympic Movement;

To the solidarity and friendship of the Asian people; and

To the health of all the distinguished guests and your families.

Cheers!
