7月2日新西兰新闻秘书处消息,加强新西兰与英国的人民、科学和贸易联系,新西兰总理杰辛达·阿德恩(Jacinda Ardern)在伦敦通宵会见了英国首相鲍里斯·约翰逊(Boris Johnson),并共同采取了一系列措施来加强两国之间已经密切的关系,并促进新西兰在印度-太平洋地区及其他地区的共同利益。

杰辛达.阿德恩说:“英国是新西兰最古老,最亲密的朋友和合作伙伴之一。在新西兰重新开放边境后如此迅速地举行会议,反映了我们在与世界重新建立联系时对与英国关系的重视”。

杰辛达.阿德恩说:”在唐宁街的会晤中,总理们同意加强我们的双边工作假期/青年流动计划。一旦生效,年龄限制将从30岁提高到35岁,逗留时间延长到三年。

我很高兴我们已经完成了对工作假期/青年流动计划的升级,这将允许更多的英国和新西兰公民在彼此的国家旅行和工作更长时间。这些变化反映了新西兰与英国关系的深度”。

总理还签署了一项新安排,为研究,科学和创新活动方面的进一步合作设定了框架。

杰辛达.阿德恩说:”新西兰和英国有着著名的科学合作历史,从欧内斯特·卢瑟福爵士(Sir Ernest Rutherford)从纳尔逊(Nelson)前往剑桥(Cambridge)迎来物理学的新时代,到新西兰公司火箭实验室(Rocket Lab)将苏格兰制造商阿尔巴轨道(Alba Orbital)制造的微型卫星发射到太空中。

我们新的研究,科学和创新安排将使我们能够探索进一步的机会,共同应对当今世界面临的一些最大的科学和创新挑战。

为了加强我们已经建立的牢固贸易联系,领导人同意采用新的快速海关程序,这将使进入两个市场的出口商受益。

这项新的海关安排建立在我们的黄金标准自由贸易协定(FTA)的基础上,将使我们之间的贸易更加容易。

今年早些时候与我们最大的贸易伙伴之一英国签署了自由贸易协定,为我们的业务和经济联系进一步发展提供了一个平台。我们的自由贸易协定将通过开放进入英国3万亿新西兰元的消费市场来支持新西兰实现贸易多样化的努力”。

两国总理还讨论了当今世界面临的重大挑战和机遇,以及英国和新西兰如何共同应对。为了领导这些努力,他们同意建群立年度外交部长对话。加强工作假期/青年流动计划。

1 July,Strengthening NZ-UK people, science and trade connections

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern met UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson in London overnight, and together took a number of steps to strengthen the already close ties between our two countries, and promote our common interests in the Indo-Pacific and beyond.

“The UK is one of Aotearoa New Zealand’s oldest and closest friends and partners. To meet so quickly after New Zealand has reopened its borders reflects the importance we place on our relationship with the UK as we reconnect with the world,” Jacinda Ardern said.

During their meeting at Downing St the Prime Ministers agreed to enhance our bilateral Working Holiday/Youth Mobility Scheme. Once in force, the age limit will be raised from 30 years to 35 years, and the length of stay extended to three years.

“I am delighted we have concluded the upgrade to our Working Holiday/Youth Mobility Scheme which will allow more UK and New Zealand citizens to travel and work in each others’ countries for longer. These changes reflect the depth of the NZ-UK relationship,” said Jacinda Ardern.

The Prime Ministers also signed a new arrangement that sets a framework for further co-operation on research, science, and innovation activities.

”New Zealand and the UK have a celebrated history of Scientific collaboration, from Sir Ernest Rutherford travelling from Nelson to Cambridge to usher in a new era of physics, to New Zealand company Rocket Lab launching microsatellites made by Scottish manufacturer Alba Orbital into space,” Jacinda Ardern said.

“Our new research, science, and innovation arrangement will enable us to explore further opportunities to work together on some of the biggest science and innovation challenges facing the world today.”

To add to our already strong trade links, the leaders agreed to a new fast-tracked customs process which will benefit exporters accessing both markets.

“This new customs arrangement builds on our gold-standard Free Trade Agreement (FTA) and will make trade between us even easier,” Jacinda Ardern said.

“The signing earlier this year of an FTA with the UK – one of our largest trading partners – provides a platform for our business and economic ties to further grow. Our FTA will support New Zealand’s efforts to diversify our trade by opening up access to the UK’s NZ$3 trillion consumer market,” Jacinda Ardern said.

The Prime Ministers also discussed the significant challenges and opportunities facing the world today, and how the UK and New Zealand can jointly respond. To give leadership to these efforts, they agreed to establish an annual Foreign Ministers Dialogue.
