央视网消息（新闻联播）：10月27日，国家主席习近平向日本前首相福田康夫遗属致唁电，对福田康夫逝世表示哀悼，向其遗属表示慰问。
Xi Jinping noted that Mr. Fukuda was a Japanese statesman of integrity and responsibility, as well as an old friend of the Chinese people. He had long been committed to friendship between China and Japan and upheld a correct view of history. During his tenure, he signed the fourth China-Japan political document with the Chinese side, establishing important principles for the development of bilateral relations. Mr. Fukuda also served as chairman of the Boao Forum for Asia, playing an important role in promoting exchanges and cooperation in Asia. China will remember Mr. Fukuda's contributions to China-Japan relations and Asia's development. We hope his family will carry forward his wishes and continue to devote themselves to friendship between China and Japan. We hope those in power in Japan will cherish the dedication and efforts of the older generation of statesmen, abide by the four China-Japan political documents, and earnestly safeguard the political foundation of bilateral relations.
习近平指出，福田先生是日本有信义、有担当的政治家，也是中国人民的老朋友，长期心系中日友好、秉持正确历史观，在任期间同中方签署中日第四个政治文件，为两国关系发展明确了重要原则。福田先生曾担任博鳌亚洲论坛理事长，为促进亚洲地区交流合作发挥了重要作用。中方将铭记福田先生为中日关系和亚洲发展所作的贡献。期待遗属继承福田先生遗志，继续致力于中日友好事业。希望日本当政者珍视老一辈政治家的心血和努力，恪守中日四个政治文件，切实维护双边关系政治基础。
