关于在网络空间促进负责任的国家行为的联合声明
信息技术正在改变现代生活，驱动创新和生产力，促进思想、文化交流，推广言论自由。它的好处使国际社会比有史以来任何时候都更加紧密相连。在我们认识到网络空间为我们的公民带来的各种惠益并努力确保人类能够继续从中受益的同时，这一愿景也开始面临挑战。国家和非国家行为者正在越来越多地利用网络空间作为不负责任行为的平台，借此攻击重要的基础设施和我们的公民，侵蚀民主机制和国际机构组织，并且窃取其自身无法创造的设想，从而削弱全球经济中的公平竞争。
过去十年来，国际社会表明，应由基于规则的国际秩序指导在网络空间的国家行为。联合国成员国日益趋向于一个不断形成的有关网络空间负责任的国家行为的框架，这个框架支持基于规则的国际秩序，确认国际法适用于国家对国家行为，坚持和平时期负责任国家行为的自愿规范，制定和落实切实的信心建设举措，以帮助减少网络事件引发冲突的风险。联合国大会（United Nations General Assembly）全体成员已反复肯定了这一框架，在2010年、2013年和2015年连续三年的联合国政府专家组（UN Groups of Governmental Experts）报告中予以明确表述。
我们强调我们承诺维护基于规则的国际秩序，鼓励对其坚守、贯彻和进一步发展，包括在不限成员名额工作组（Open Ended Working Group）和政府专家工作组正在进行的联合国磋商中。我们支持有目标的网络安全能力建设，以确保所有负责任的国家能够落实这一框架，更好保护其网络不遭受重大干扰、破坏或其他破坏稳定的网际活动影响。我们重申人权于此适用，必须在网上和非网上均受到政府的尊重和保护，包括在维护网络安全时。
作为维护基于规则的国际秩序的负责任国家，我们认识到，我们对保护自由、开放和安全的网络空间以使我们的后代享其惠益所具有的作用。必要时，我们将在自愿基础上共同努力，要求那些与这一框架背道而驰的国家承担责任，包括采取透明和符合国际法的措施。必须要网络空间的恶劣行为承担后果。
我们呼吁所有国家支持正在形成的框架，并且加入我们的行列，以便网络空间有更好的责究和稳定。

Information technology is transforming modern life, driving innovation and productivity, facilitating the sharing of ideas, of cultures, and promoting free expression. Its benefits have brought the global community closer together than ever before in history.  Even as we recognize the myriad benefits that cyberspace has brought to our citizens and strive to ensure that humanity can continue to reap its benefits, a challenge to this vision has emerged.  State and non-state actors are using cyberspace increasingly as a platform for irresponsible behavior from which to target critical infrastructure and our citizens, undermine democracies and international institutions and organizations, and undercut fair competition in our global economy by stealing ideas when they cannot create them.
Over the past decade, the international community has made clear that the international rules-based order should guide state behavior in cyberspace.  UN member states have increasingly coalesced around an evolving framework of responsible state behavior in cyberspace (framework), which supports the international rules-based order, affirms the applicability of international law to state-on-state behavior, adherence to voluntary norms of responsible state behavior in peacetime, and the development and implementation of practical confidence building measures to help reduce the risk of conflict stemming from cyber incidents.  All members of the United Nations General Assembly have repeatedly affirmed this framework, articulated in three successive UN Groups of Governmental Experts reports in 2010, 2013, and 2015.
We underscore our commitment to uphold the international rules-based order and encourage its adherence, implementation, and further development, including at the ongoing UN negotiations of the Open Ended Working Group and Group of Governmental Experts.  We support targeted cybersecurity capacity building to ensure that all responsible states can implement this framework and better protect their networks from significant disruptive, destructive, or otherwise destabilizing cyber activity.  We reiterate that human rights apply and must be respected and protected by states online, as well as offline, including when addressing cybersecurity.
As responsible states that uphold the international rules-based order, we recognize our role in safeguarding the benefits of a free, open, and secure cyberspace for future generations.  When necessary, we will work together on a voluntary basis to hold states accountable when they act contrary to this framework, including by taking measures that are transparent and consistent with international law.  There must be consequences for bad behavior in cyberspace.
We call on all states to support the evolving framework and to join with us to ensure greater accountability and stability in cyberspace.
