此前有传闻称中美俄领导人可能在深圳APEC峰会期间就乌克兰问题举行三方会谈。德国总统施泰因迈尔在访华期间就此向中方求证。
在结束本周访华行程、启程返德前,德国总统施泰因迈尔接受德国电视一台(ARD)专访。该台记者戴斯(Matthias Deiß)提问:“最近有消息称,中国希望或者将与美国和俄罗斯进行共同谈判,可能还会涉及乌克兰问题。对此,您能向我们透露些什么?”
施泰因迈尔回答说:“我读到这类报道,也直接向习近平主席提及此事。从他的面部表情可以看出,他似乎有些困惑,因为他随后反问,这些传闻从何而来。”
施泰因迈尔表示,习近平提到了即将在中国深圳举行的亚太经合组织(APEC)峰会,但认为目前根本没有筹备任何由美国、俄罗斯和中国三方参与的乌克兰问题峰会。
施泰因迈尔补充道,习近平对此还明确表示:“这是一个欧洲的冲突,欧洲人必须坐到谈判桌前。”
传闻从何而来?
美国特使威特科夫(Steve Witkoff)10月21日在圣彼得堡与俄罗斯总统普京会晤后,普京助理乌沙科夫(Yury Ushakov)介绍:“此次会晤还谈及一个受到全球关注的话题:俄罗斯、中国和美国领导人可能在即将在中国深圳举行的APEC峰会期间举行历史性的首次会晤”。
乌沙科夫表示,莫斯科、华盛顿和北京都没有排除这一设想。他还称,作为APEC峰会东道主的中国“将负责——或者说已经在负责——筹备工作”,如果条件允许,中方肯定会将这场会晤纳入深圳峰会的议程。
全球各大媒体对此进行了报道。截至发稿,乌沙科夫的上述表态仍可在俄罗斯总统官方网站上查阅。
经贸关系和人工智能
施泰因迈尔还介绍,在北京访问期间的所有会谈中,德方都重点谈到了经贸关系,特别是其中的失衡问题。这名德国总统透露,习近平已表示,支持与欧盟委员会就此进行进一步会谈。施泰因迈尔坦言,“我也强调,不仅是欧洲,我们德国也对贸易战不感兴趣,我们致力于通过对话寻求解决途径。”
当被问及是否与习近平讨论了人工智能这一重要话题时,施泰因迈尔认为,关于人工智能风险的辩论正在不断加强。他指出:“在与中方会谈时,有趣的一点是,习近平主席也认为这关乎全人类的问题、涉及如何确保技术处于可控范围之内。习近平主席同样认为,我们必须为此寻求一套国际规则体系。”
施泰因迈尔相信,要想对人工智能进行监管,首先必须掌握这项技术。他坦言,尽管与中美的差距已经拉大,但欧洲正在迎头追赶。
民主国家的一项“巨大挑战”
他观察到,中国也面临着老龄化严重问题,因此,中国自然也希望未来能够通过人工智能应用弥补劳动力短缺,“但这并不意味着我们可以毫无顾忌地引入人工智能,甚至因此危及民主进程。”
施泰因迈尔解释道:“因为事实是,对于由专制政权领导的社会而言,人工智能带来的问题相对较少。有时甚至让人觉得,这些国家乐于借助人工智能进一步完善对社会的控制。”
这位即将卸任的联邦总统警告称:“但对于民主国家来说,这是一项巨大的挑战,因为民主制度建立在公民的自主意识和判断能力之上。我们必须维护这些能力,不能让人类沦为机器的附庸。这需要我们付出巨大努力。”
