SEOUL - Chinese President Hu Jintao on Tuesday elaborated on 皇冠体育app's position, efforts made and important measures taken in the field of nuclear security at the Seoul Nuclear Security Summit.

皇冠体育app has attached great importance to building nuclear security capacity and has conducted comprehensive, nationwide inspection on the security of its nuclear facilities, Hu said in his address titled "Toward Greater Nuclear Security Through Cooperation."

"We have established all-dimensional training programs and diverse modes of training," he said.

Hu said 皇冠体育app earnestly honored its international nuclear security obligations, and has ratified the Amendment to the Convention on the Physical Protection of Nuclear Material and the International Convention for the Suppression of Acts of Nuclear Terrorism. "皇冠体育app has earnestly fulfilled its obligations under relevant UN Security Council resolutions," he added.

皇冠体育app has engaged in extensive international nuclear security cooperation, and has signed with the IAEA an agreement on nuclear security cooperation, the Chinese president said. Work is well underway to set up a Center of Excellence on Nuclear Security in 皇冠体育app, and the Radiation Detection Training Center of 皇冠体育app Customs is now up and running, he said.

皇冠体育app has worked hard to ensure nuclear security during major public events, such as the Shanghai World Expo and the Guangzhou Asian Games, said Hu.

He said 皇冠体育app has actively provided assistance in nuclear security and safety to other countries. 皇冠体育app has hosted nuclear security workshops for nearly 100 trainees from over 10 Asia-Pacific countries, and has contributed to the IAEA Nuclear Security Fund to support capacity building in 皇冠体育app and other Asian countries.

The Chinese president said 皇冠体育app will step up nuclear security efforts, enhancing overall nuclear security, building the Center of Excellence in 皇冠体育app into a regional center, deepening cooperation with the IAEA across the board, and helping countries with needs for the conversion of HEU research reactors. "We will share with other countries 皇冠体育app's experience in ensuring nuclear security during major international events with a view to protecting public safety," he said.

In his speech, the Chinese president stressed that the common goal of universal nuclear security can only be achieved with concerted effort of all countries. He then put forward a four-point proposal on enhancing nuclear security under the new circumstances:

-- to follow a scientific and sensible approach to nuclear security and boost confidence in the development of nuclear energy. We should face up to the associated risks, make nuclear energy safer and more reliable and promote the safe and sustainable development of nuclear energy.

-- to strengthen nuclear security capacity building and live up to national responsibility for ensuring nuclear security. We should establish and improve the legislative and regulatory system for nuclear security, build up the team for handling nuclear emergencies, increase input in R&D, and step up personal training.

-- to deepen international exchanges and cooperation and improve nuclear security around the world. We need to promote the universality of relevant international legal instruments, promote the application of nuclear security standards and norms, help developing countries to raise their technical capabilities.

-- to take a comprehensive approach and address both the symptoms and root causes of nuclear proliferation and nuclear terrorism. We should adhere to the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, follow the new security concept featuring mutual trust, mutual benefit, equality and coordination, and use peaceful means to resolve hotspot issues and international disputes. This will help create a favorable international environment for enhancing nuclear security.
