爱尔兰企业、贸易及就业部部长利奥·瓦拉德卡在致辞中说:“在这个迅速变化的世界里,在线商业交易已成为我们生活中无处不在的一部分,这一点在中国表现得最为明显。”

 

"Preparing for tomorrow's economy and society means seizing the opportunities presented by digital technologies," Varadkar said. "Digital technologies will be particularly important for our decarbonization transition and supporting the achievement of our climate targets, as well as for businesses, as they move to working remotely or trading online for the first time."

瓦拉德卡说:“为未来的经济和社会做准备意味着抓住数字技术带来的机遇。数字技术对于我们的脱碳转型和支持实现我们的气候目标尤其重要,对于企业来说也是如此,因为他们首次转向远程工作或在线交易。”

Addressing these issues and bringing inclusive benefits "require joint efforts of all stakeholders including national governments, the private sector, international organizations and development agencies", said Zhang Xiangchen, deputy director-general of the WTO, in a video message.

世贸组织副总干事张向晨在视频致辞中表示,解决这些问题并带来包容性利益“需要包括国家政府、私营部门、国际组织和发展机构在内的所有利益攸关方的共同努力”。
