| Abstract: | 2006年10月8日，日本新任首相安倍晉三偕妻子搭專機抵達北京，與中國國家主席胡錦濤會面。這是繼前首相小泉純一郎2001年到訪後事隔五年，中國第一次迎接日本首相。安倍當時與胡錦濤進行了80分鐘的會談，之後發布新聞公報，「戰略互惠關係」首度載明其上，這是中日近年來和解之始。
這樣的局面，直到安倍上任時，都難以出現在世人的想像中。甚至這場「破冰會」之後，外界仍不看好兩國關係。事實上，兩國和解的潛流早在雙方會面前已出現，促使和解的後勢強勁。非但「戰略互惠關係」的內涵不斷充實，隨著胡錦濤在2008年5月訪日，帶回更多雙方在環保、節能上的具體合作項目、日本軍艦的回訪及東海油氣田合作開採的初步解決，說明中日和解的後勢持續看漲，也顯示出安倍訪中事件的深度與意涵。因此深入瞭解安倍北京行這段中日和解的過程，對於瞭解中國外交、日本外交及兩國關係未來發展有相當的重要性。本文將還原和解過程，並從兩國政治、軍事、經貿、社會及其所處的國際環境，來挖掘和解的潛流與根源，並進一步評估和解的趨勢與兩國關係的未來。
On October 8, 2006, newly inaugurated Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, in the company of his wife, arrived in Beijing for a meeting with Mr. Hu Jintao, National Chairman of the People’s Republic of China. That was the first visit of Japanese prime minister to China after 5 years of the last high profiled visit by former Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi in 2001. After an 80-minute discussion between Abe and Hu, “Sino-Japanese Strategic and Mutually Beneficial Relations” was first put into words on a press communiqué jointly issued by Abe and Hu after their meeting. That meeting indicates the onset of Sino-Japanese reconciliation in recent years. Such a situation could hardly be imagined by the world until the inauguration of Abe. Even after the ice-breaking meeting, the outside world was still not optimistic about the relationship between China and Japan. As a matter of fact, long before the Abe-Hu meeting, an undercurrent of Sino-Japanese reconciliation had appeared with a strong momentum pushing for peace between the two countries. Not only has been the content of “Sino-Japanese Strategic and Mutually Beneficial Relations” constantly have been enriched, Hu’s visit to Japan in May, 2008 brought more concrete cooperation projects in the fields of environmental protection and energy conservation. Additionally, the fact that a Japanese military vessel repaid a visit to China and the “Sino-Japanese Cooperative Exploitation Plan on East China Sea Oil and Gas Fields” has reached an initial agreement, which promises a bright future for Sino-Japanese reconciliation and reveals the depth and significance of Abe’s visit to China. Therefore, to grasp the future development of China’s foreign policies, Japanese foreign policies, and Sino-Japanese diplomatic relations, it is very important to have a deep understanding of the process of Sino-Japanese reconciliation during Abe’s Beijing trip. This paper aims to restore the process of Sino-Japanese reconciliation, explore the undercurrents and origin of the reconciliation from the aspect of political, military, economic, social and international environments, and further evaluate the trend of reconciliation and relations between China and Japan in the future. |
