新冠病毒疫情、生物安全与东亚合作的新未来

当前全球生物安全形势日益严峻,其造成的冲击主要包括危害民众的生命健康和社会生活、严重破坏地区和全球经济、影响国家政权的稳定等。新冠病毒因具有传播速度快、传播范围广、致死率高等特点,这势必也会成为东亚区域繁荣与稳定的新挑战:一是严重损害中日韩三国民众的生命安全;二是多领域冲击东亚乃至全球经济;三是敌对势力借此攻击中国政府的执政合法性。可见,生物安全在区域经济开发和相互依赖中的地位日益重要。对此,应处理好两组关系:一是生物安全与国家利益的关系;二是生物安全与国家安全的关系。中日韩可从地区卫生安全为切入点和战略抓手来推进三国的医疗合作,消除日韩两国对中国发展的猜疑和不信任,推进三国的战略互信,然后逐步过渡到"高敏感领域"。

The Outbreak of COVID-19:Bio-Security and New Future for East Asia Cooperation

Currently, the bio-security situation of the world is getting austere, whose major global consequences include endangering people’s life, health and their social life;damaging regional and global economy seriously;and affecting regime stability. Hereinto, COVID-19, featuring rapid and wide spreading as well as high infectivity and mortality, has wrecked great havoc on all countries of the world. This is bound to pose a new challenge to the prosperity and stability of East Asia, manifesting itself as: first, seriously affecting life security of peoples from China, Japan and the ROK;second, impacting East Asian and global economy on multiple fronts;third, attacking the legitimacy of the Chinese government from hostile forces. As it is seen, biosecurity is getting more important in regional economic development and interdependency among nations in the region. For this, two sets of relations should be well managed: relations between bio-security and national interests;and relations between bio-security and national security. China, Japan and the ROK may advance medical cooperation among them by taking regional hygienic-security as an entry point or a strategic grip, to eliminate suspicion and distrust on the part of Japan and the ROK over China’s development and boost trilateral strategic trust, after which to bring their cooperation gradually into "highly-sensitive areas".
