So we have to work together and it's important that we do this," he said.索伯特卡说：“在场的任何国家都没有独自解决问题(全球变暖)的能力，所以我们必须共同努力，这十分重要。”Sobotka said the Belt and Road Initiative, as it develops, has become the green belt and road, which will help deploy highly competitive, highly efficient and green energy technologies around the world.索伯特卡表示，“一带一路”倡议已经发展成为绿色环保的“一带一路”，这将有助于在全球范围内部署高竞争力、高效率和环保的能源技术。Global英 /ˈɡləʊbl/美 /ˈɡloʊbl/adj. 全球的Firm英 /fɜːm/美 /fɜːrm/n.公司Development英 /dɪˈveləpmənt/美 /dɪˈveləpmənt/n. 发展Entrepreneur英 /ˌɒntrəprəˈnɜː(r)/美 /ˌɑːntrəprəˈnɜːr/n. 〈法〉企业家
