一、中華人民共和國政府和印度共和國政府（以下稱“雙方”）認(rèn)識到氣候變化及其負(fù)面影響是全人類的共同關(guān)切和21世紀(jì)最大的全球挑戰(zhàn)之一，需要在可持續(xù)發(fā)展框架下通過國際合作解決。

二、雙方憶及2009年簽署的《中華人民共和國政府和印度共和國政府關(guān)于應(yīng)對氣候變化合作的協(xié)定》和2010年簽署的《中華人民共和國政府和印度共和國政府關(guān)于綠色技術(shù)合作的諒解備忘錄》（以下簡稱“備忘錄”）。雙方?jīng)Q定通過本聯(lián)合聲明及備忘錄、協(xié)定的實施，進一步加強雙邊氣候變化伙伴關(guān)系，并提升該伙伴關(guān)系在雙方整體戰(zhàn)略合作伙伴關(guān)系中的地位。

三、雙方強調(diào)《聯(lián)合國氣候變化框架公約》（以下簡稱“公約”）及其《京都議定書》是國際合作應(yīng)對氣候變化最合適的框架，重申公平原則和共同但有區(qū)別的責(zé)任原則，并要求發(fā)達國家在溫室氣體減排及向發(fā)展中國家提供資金、技術(shù)和能力建設(shè)支持方面發(fā)揮領(lǐng)導(dǎo)作用。

四、雙方將攜手并與其他締約方一道，共同推動多邊談判進程于2015年在公約下達成全面、平衡、公平和有效的協(xié)議，以確保公約的全面、有效和持續(xù)實施。在此背景下，雙方表示全力支持今年將在法國巴黎舉行的聯(lián)合國氣候會議（以下簡稱“巴黎會議”）取得成功。

五、雙方重申，2015年協(xié)議應(yīng)全面遵循公約的原則、規(guī)定和架構(gòu)，特別是公平原則、共同但有區(qū)別的責(zé)任原則和各自能力原則，體現(xiàn)發(fā)達國家和發(fā)展中國家間不同的歷史責(zé)任、發(fā)展階段和國情。2015年協(xié)議應(yīng)全面、平衡地處理減緩、適應(yīng)、資金、技術(shù)開發(fā)和轉(zhuǎn)讓、能力建設(shè)、行動和支持的透明度。

六、雙方強調(diào)，落實巴厘路線圖成果對于提高2020年前行動力度、建立各方互信同等重要和緊迫。雙方敦促發(fā)達國家提高其2020年前減排目標(biāo)、兌現(xiàn)其到2020年每年向發(fā)展中國家提供1000億美元資金的承諾。

七、作為最大的兩個發(fā)展中國家，盡管面臨社會和經(jīng)濟發(fā)展和消除貧困方面的巨大挑戰(zhàn)，中國和印度均通過制定和實施減緩和適應(yīng)的計劃、政策和措施，正在采取雄心勃勃的國內(nèi)應(yīng)對氣候變化行動。

八、中國和印度正在全力準(zhǔn)備與2015年協(xié)議相關(guān)的各自國家自主決定貢獻，爭取在巴黎會議前盡早提交。

九、雙方相信其氣候變化伙伴關(guān)系是互利的，并為全球應(yīng)對氣候變化努力作出貢獻。為此，雙方?jīng)Q定加強關(guān)于各自國內(nèi)氣候政策和多邊談判進程的高層雙邊對話，進一步深化雙方在清潔能源技術(shù)、節(jié)能、能效、可再生能源、包括電動汽車在內(nèi)的可持續(xù)交通、低碳城市和適應(yīng)等領(lǐng)域的務(wù)實合作。

1.The Government of the People's Republic of China and the Government of the Republic of India (hereinafter referred to as ‘the Two Sides’) recognize that climate change and its adverse effects are the common concern of mankind and one of the greatest global challenges of the 21st century, which needs to be addressed through internationalcooperation in the context of sustainable development.

2.The Two Sides recall the Agreement on Cooperation on Addressing Climate Change between the Government of the People’s Republic of China and the Government of the Republic of India signed in 2009 and the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the Government of the Republic of India and the Government of the People’s Republic of China on Cooperation on Green Technologies signed in 2010. They decide to further promote bilateral partnership on climate change and enhance the role of this partnership in their overall strategic cooperation partnership through the implementation of this Joint Statement and the MoU as well as the Agreement.

3.The Two Sides emphasize that the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and its Kyoto Protocol are the most appropriate framework for international cooperation for addressing climate change. They reaffirm the principles of equity and common but differentiated responsibilities and call for the leadership of developed countries in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and providing finance, technology and capacity building support to developing countries.

4.The Two Sides will work together, and with other Parties, to advance the multilateral negotiations to achieve a comprehensive, balanced, equitable and effective agreement under the UNFCCC in 2015, with a view to ensuring the full, effective and sustained implementation of the UNFCCC.

6.The TwoSides stress the equal importance and urgency of implementing the outcomes of the Bali Road Map in order to increase the pre-2020 ambition and build mutual trust amongst countries. The Two Sides urged the developed countries to raise their pre-2020 emission reduction targets and honour their commitment to provide 100bn US dollars per year by 2020 to developing countries.

7.As the two biggest developing countries, Chinaand India are undertaking ambitious actions domestically on combating climate change through plans, policies and measures on mitigation and adaptation despite the enormous scale of their challenges in terms of social and economic development and poverty eradication.
