12月4日，由國家民委民族畫報社、中國外文局當代中國與世界研究院聯合主辦的“讀懂中華民族：多元一體與共同發展”國際研討會于2024年“讀懂中國”國際會議(廣州)召開期間成功舉行。作為此次研討會的演講嘉賓，清華大學客座教授、英國劍橋大學政治和國際研究系前高級研究員馬丁·雅克(Martin Jacques)接受中新網專訪時表示，中華民族多元一體，比單一民族國家更能展現出包容的特性，“中華文明中，最為引人注目的便是其多元的民族文化。”

　　A parallel forum titled "Understanding the Chinese Nation: Unity in Diversity for Common Development" was held on Wednesday during the 8th Understanding China Conference in Guangzhou, South China's Guangdong Province. Martin Jacques, a visiting professor at Tsinghua University, and former senior fellow, POLIS, Cambridge University, was invited as a guest speaker at the parallel forum.

　　What is striking about China is, first of all, its significant ethnic diversity, he remarked in an exclusive interview with China News Network, noting that the Chinese nation’s diversity in unity reflects greater tolerance compared to a single-ethnicity nation-state. (By Huang Fang, Shangguan Yun)
