【重要講話】

　　中國共產黨一經誕生，就把為中國人民謀幸福、為中華民族謀復興確立為自己的初心使命。一百年來，中國共產黨團結帶領中國人民進行的一切奮斗、一切犧牲、一切創造，歸結起來就是一個主題：實現中華民族偉大復興。

     Since the very day of its founding, the Party has made seeking happiness for the Chinese people and rejuvenation for the Chinese nation its aspiration and mission. All the struggle, sacrifice, and creation through which the Party has united and led the Chinese people over the past hundred years has been tied together by one ultimate theme – bringing about the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

　　——為了實現中華民族偉大復興，中國共產黨團結帶領中國人民，浴血奮戰、百折不撓，創造了新民主主義革命的偉大成就。我們經過北伐戰爭、土地革命戰爭、抗日戰爭、解放戰爭，以武裝的革命反對武裝的反革命，推翻帝國主義、封建主義、官僚資本主義三座大山，建立了人民當家作主的中華人民共和國，實現了民族獨立、人民解放。新民主主義革命的勝利，徹底結束了舊中國半殖民地半封建社會的歷史，徹底結束了舊中國一盤散沙的局面，徹底廢除了列強強加給中國的不平等條約和帝國主義在中國的一切特權，為實現中華民族偉大復興創造了根本社會條件。中國共產黨和中國人民以英勇頑強的奮斗向世界莊嚴宣告，中國人民站起來了，中華民族任人宰割、飽受欺凌的時代一去不復返了！

     To realize national rejuvenation, the Party united and led the Chinese people in fighting bloody battles with unyielding determination, achieving great success in the new-democratic revolution.Through the Northern Expedition, the Agrarian Revolutionary War, the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, and the War of Liberation, we fought armed counter-revolution with armed revolution, toppling the three mountains of imperialism, feudalism, and bureaucrat-capitalism and establishing the People's Republic of China, which made the people masters of the country. We thus secured our nation's independence and liberated our people.The victory of the new-democratic revolution put an end to China's history as a semi-colonial, semi-feudal society, to the state of total disunity that existed in old China, and to all the unequal treaties imposed on our country by foreign powers and all the privileges that imperialist powers enjoyed in China. It created the fundamental social conditions for realizing national rejuvenation.Through tenacious struggle, the Party and the Chinese people showed the world that the Chinese people had stood up, and that the time in which the Chinese nation could be bullied and abused by others was gone forever.

　　——為了實現中華民族偉大復興，中國共產黨團結帶領中國人民，自力更生、發憤圖強，創造了社會主義革命和建設的偉大成就。我們進行社會主義革命，消滅在中國延續幾千年的封建剝削壓迫制度，確立社會主義基本制度，推進社會主義建設，戰勝帝國主義、霸權主義的顛覆破壞和武裝挑釁，實現了中華民族有史以來最為廣泛而深刻的社會變革，實現了一窮二白、人口眾多的東方大國大步邁進社會主義社會的偉大飛躍，為實現中華民族偉大復興奠定了根本政治前提和制度基礎。中國共產黨和中國人民以英勇頑強的奮斗向世界莊嚴宣告，中國人民不但善于破壞一個舊世界、也善于建設一個新世界，只有社會主義才能救中國，只有社會主義才能發展中國！

     To realize national rejuvenation, the Party united and led the Chinese people in endeavoring to build a stronger China with a spirit of self-reliance, achieving great success in socialist revolution and construction. By carrying out socialist revolution, we eliminated the exploitative and repressive feudal system that had persisted in China for thousands of years, and established socialism as our basic system. In the process of socialist construction, we overcame subversion, sabotage, and armed provocation by imperialist and hegemonic powers, and brought about the most extensive and profound social changes in the history of the Chinese nation. This great transformation of China from a poor and backward country in the East with a large population into a socialist country laid down the fundamental political conditions and the institutional foundations necessary for realizing national rejuvenation. Through tenacious struggle, the Party and the Chinese people showed the world that the Chinese people were capable of not only dismantling the old world, but also building a new one, that only socialism could save China, and that only socialism could develop China.
