7月7日,外交部回应“日本政府拟年内将钓鱼岛国有化”一事称,钓鱼岛是中国固有领土,中国的神圣领土决不允许任何人拿来买卖。中国政府将继续采取必要措施坚决维护对钓鱼岛及其附属岛屿的主权。

China reiterated its sovereignty over the Diaoyu Islands in the East China Sea over the weekend, dismissing the Japanese government's latest nationalization plan which escalated the row between the two nations.

reiterate 重申

one’s sovereignty over... 对......的主权

dismiss 解散,剔除,不接受

escalate the row between... 使......之间的争端升级

 

"The Diaoyu Islands and affiliated islands have been part of China's inherent territory since ancient times, over which the country's sovereignty has indisputable historical and legal grounds," Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Weimin said in a statement released Saturday, "No one will ever be allowed to buy and sell China's sacred territory."

affiliate 使附属

inherent 固有的,与生俱来的,遗传的

indisputable 无可争辩的

The Chinese government will take necessary measures to adamantly uphold its sovereignty, Liu continued.

take necessary measures to 采取必要措施.....

adamantly 坚决地,坚定不移地,不动摇地

uphold 维护,支持,赞成

 

Liu made the remarks after the Japanese government said on Saturday it is considering plans to purchase the Diaoyu Islands from a private owner, in the wake of a campaign initiated in April by Shintaro Ishihara, governor of Tokyo, which has sparked public outcry in China.

in the wake of 紧跟,随着......而来

initiate 发起,创始

governor 地方长官(总督,州长......)

spark public outcry 引发公众强烈抗议/不满

 

"We're considering the issue comprehensively from the viewpoint of maintaining and controlling (the islands) in a peaceful and stable manner. We're having various kinds of contacts," Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda told reporters.

 

The Japanese government has already notified the local Tokyo government of its plan, the Kyodo News reported, citing unnamed government sources, while Ishihara, who waged the purchase campaign, indicated the metropolitan government would not give way to the central authority.

wage the campaign 发起这项运动

give way to 让步

 

"I responded that Tokyo will first buy them considering the owner's circumstances," Ishihara told reporters.

Chinese experts also expressed concerns over the nationalization plan, urging the Japanese government to be wary of escalating the standoff with China.

express concerns over 对......表示担心

(类似官方用语:express strong dissatisfaction with ......对......表示强烈不满 )

wary 谨慎的,小心翼翼的

standoff 僵持,冷淡

 

China has long been insistent on putting aside disputes while co-developing the islands, whereas Japan has continued attempts to create rifts, arresting a Chinese fishing captain after a boat collision incident in September 2010 before unveiling the purchase plan in April by Ishihara.

be insistent on 对......很坚持

put aside disputes while co-develop 摈弃争端,共同发展

create rifts 制造不和 (rift 裂缝)

unveil 使公诸于众,揭开,显露

 

Experts also said Japan's clinging to the purchase plan may also be a boon for China's cross-Straits relations.

Ma Ying-jeou, the incumbent Taiwan leader and chairman of the ruling Kuomintang also on Saturday criticized the nationalization plan, saying it is his presidential duty to protect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Diaoyu Islands.

cling to 坚持,紧握不放

boon 恩惠,福利

cross-Straits relations 海峡两岸关系

incumbent [in'kʌmbənt] 现任的

sovereignty and territorial integrity 主权和领土完整

 

Ma said Taiwan had been working to improve relations with Japan, and bilateral relations are good right now.

However, he added that no concessions could be made when it comes to issues related to the sovereignty, the Taipei Times reported.

bilateral relations 双边关系

make concessions 作出让步/妥协

when it comes to 当提到,就......而论
