(一)世界反动力量确在准备第三次世界大战,战争危险是存在着的。
#§1. #§ The forces of world reaction are definitely preparing a third world war, and the danger of war exists.
但是,世界人民的民主力量超过世界反动力量,并且正在向前发展,必须和必能克服战争危险。
#§ But the democratic forces of the people of the world have surpassed the reactionary forces and are forging ahead; they must and certainly can overcome the danger of war.
因此,美、英、法同苏联的关系,不是或者妥协或者破裂的问题,而是或者较早妥协或者较迟妥协的问题。
# §Therefore, the question in the relations between the United States, Britain and France and the Soviet Union is not a question of compromise or break, but a question of compromise earlier or compromise later.
(二)上述这种妥协,不是说在一切国际问题上。
#§2.
The kind of compromise mentioned above does not mean compromise on all international issues.
这在美、英、法继续由反动派统治的条件下是不可能的。
#§ That is impossible so long as the United States, Britain and France continue to be ruled by reactionaries.
但是,这一类的妥协在目前短时期内还不会很多。
#§ But there will not be many such compromises in the near future.
美、英、法同苏联的通商贸易关系则有扩大的可能。
#§ There is, however, a possibility that the trade relations of the United States, Britain and France with the Soviet Union will expand
(三)美、英、法同苏联之间的这种妥协,只能是全世界一切民主力量向美、英、法反动力量作了坚决的和有效的斗争的结果。
#§3. # §Such compromise between the United States, Britain and France and the Soviet Union can be the outcome only of resolute, effective struggles by all the democratic forces of the world against the reactionary forces of the United States, Britain and France.
这种妥协,并不要求资本主义世界各国人民随之实行国内的妥协。
# Such compromise does not require the people in the countries of the capitalist world to follow suit and make compromises at home.
各国人民仍将按照不同情况进行不同斗争。
# §But the democratic forces of the people of the world have surpassed the reactionary forces and are forging ahead; they must and certainly can overcome the danger of war.
反动势力对于人民的民主势力的原则,是能够消灭者一定消灭之,暂时不能消灭者准备将来消灭之。
#§ The people in those countries will continue to wage different struggles in accordance with their different conditions. # §The principle of the reactionary forces in dealing with the democratic forces of the people is definitely to destroy all they can and to prepare to destroy later whatever they cannot destroy now.
针对这种情况,人民的民主势力对于反动势力,亦应采取同样的原则。
# § Face to face with this situation, the democratic forces of the people should likewise apply the same principle to the reactionary forces.
