我们党的民族、宗教工作方针政策及其实践总体上是正确的,这为我国社会稳定、经济建设创造了不可缺少的重要的条件。同时,我们在民族宗教问题上也面临复杂、长期的任务和严峻挑战。我们既要坚持已有的理论、政策和工作,又要与时俱进,有所创新,使之适应新的形势、新的情况、新的挑战。 Our party’s national and religious work guidelines, policies and practices are generally correct. This has created an indispensable and important condition for our social stability and economic construction. At the same time, we also face complicated, long-term tasks and severe challenges on the ethnic and religious issues. We must not only adhere to the existing theories, policies and work but also keep pace with the times and make innovations to adapt them to the new situation, new situations and new challenges.
