在川普總統的領導下，我可以向各位保證，美國會堅持到底。中國應該知道，美國人民及兩黨的民選官員都已下定決心。
And under President Trump's leadership, I can assure you, America will stay the course. China should know that the American people and their elected officials in both parties are resolved.
尾聲：我們還是希望跟北京和好
正如我們的《國家安全戰略》所指出的：我們應該記住，「競爭並不必然意味敵對」。川普總統已經明確表示，我們希望與北京建立建設性的關係，促進我們共同的繁榮與安全，而不是分道揚鑣。儘管中國政府繼續偏離此一願景，但中國領導人仍然可以改弦易轍，回到幾十年前，兩國關係剛開始時的改革開放精神。美國人民只有這個要求，中國人民最起碼應該得到這樣的待遇。
As our National Security Strategy states: We should remember that "Competition does not always mean hostility," nor does it have to. The President has made clear, we want a constructive relationship with Beijing where our prosperity and security grow together, not apart. While Beijing has been moving further away from this vision, China's rulers can still change course and return to the spirit of reform and opening that characterize the beginning of this relationship decades ago. The American people want nothing more; and the Chinese people deserve nothing less.
偉大的中國小說家魯迅經常感嘆他的國家「對於異族歷來只有兩樣稱呼，一樣是禽獸，一樣是聖上」，但從沒有「說他也同我們一樣的」。（編按：語出魯迅〈隨感錄四十八〉）今天，美國向中國伸出手。我們希望，北京很快會以行動而不是言詞作為回應，會重新尊重美國。但是請放心：我們與中國的關係是建立在公平、互惠和尊重美國主權的基礎上，在達到此一目標之前，我們不會讓步。（掌聲）
