3月5日舉行的全國兩會首場“部長通道”上，面對記者關心的財政熱點問題，財政部部長劉昆第一時間給予回應。

China will keep its fiscal policy basically stable and make no sharp turns in 2021, the finance minister said Friday.
劉昆表示，今年的財政政策保持基本穩定，不急轉彎。

The country will lower the deficit ratio and quota of the local government special bonds from last year.
今年的赤字率、新增地方政府專項債券限額比去年有所降低。

However, compared with 2019, China's total deficit will increase by 810 billion yuan (about 124.8 billion US dollars) to 3.57 trillion yuan this year. The quota of the newly-added special-purpose local government bonds for 2021 will stand at 3.65 trillion yuan, up by 1.5 trillion yuan from 2019.
然而，和2019年相比，今年的赤字總額達3.57萬億元，增加了0.81萬億元；地方政府專項債券限額新增3.65萬億元，增加了1.5萬億元。

The general expenditure of the central government has decreased for two consecutive years. The money saved was used to expand transfer payments to the local governments, Liu said.
中央本級財政支出連續兩年負增長，節省的資金用于增加對地方的轉移支付。

Liu vowed that China will continue to improve management of government debt, keep the macro leverage ratio basically stable, maintain the necessary support for economic recovery, and leave policy space to cope with future risks and challenges.
下一步，將持續完善政府債務管理，保持政府部門宏觀杠桿率基本穩定，既保持對經濟恢復的必要支出力度，又為今后應對風險挑戰預留政策空間。
