【禁闻】美中对话 中共怕国内抗议 望低调

【新唐人2011年5月11日讯】为期两天的「美中战略与经济对话」9号在美国华盛顿开
幕。美国副总统拜登表示，在人权问题上两国存在很大的意见分歧。而美国国务卿柯林
顿则表示，在人权议题上，美国向中国非常明确的表达忧虑。更有外媒报导，中共怕引
发国内抗议，望这次对话低调。

美国副总统拜登和国务卿柯林顿，向中共当局表达了对中国人权记录，以及中共正在�
行镇压行动的忧虑。

美国副总统拜登：「我们在人权问题上有强烈的分歧，我们关注近期在中国的镇压行
动，包括对记者、律师、网络作家以及艺术家的攻击、拘补和无端失踪，我再次重
申，真正的友谊绝不会建立在错误的基础上。哪些问题上有分歧，重要的一点是要表达
出来。」

不过，《国际先驱论坛报》报导，虽然美中正在展开新一轮战略对话，但是在中国，中
共当局对西方的批评却更加剧烈，甚至有中共官员对驻北京的外国官员说，他们认为「
美国正在煽动中国革命」。

《国际先驱论坛报》以头版头条刊登文章指出，最近3个月，在中国大陆的外国人，尤
其是西方人，感觉来自中共政府的审查和压力越来越大。

报导中提到，今年2月到4月间，至少有60项由美国驻北京使馆组织的活动被取消，据说
都是因为中共当局干预，其中包括有外国人参加的文化论坛和学校活动等。此外，中共
的教育部对出国访问的学者也多次发出警告，要求他们不要参加"反华"活动。

文章指出，中共当局对一些「非盈利组织」审查的更为严厉，尤其是接受美国政府或欧
洲联盟资助的机构，最近频繁受到税务官员的干扰。此外，席卷中东及北非的"茉莉花
革命"开始以来，中国国内的许多外国网站，包括Twitter、Facebook、Google等，都受
到中国当局更多的封锁和骚扰。

有分析认为，中方在近期的对话中更为低调。美国卡内基国际和平基金会副主席帕尔
( DouglasPaal）向《法新社》表示："中方不希望举行大型宴会或致词，可能是因为他
们对国内发生的事情保持低调，不想引发抗议。"

网友「中国人」则在《美国之音》发贴说：「人权问题非常重要。很高兴看到美国终于
正面大声的说出了这个问题。」

另外，这次美中会谈除了人权问题外，双方还就人民币汇率等经贸议题举行磋商。但
是，美国经济智库成员梅尔次（Allan H.Meltzer）教授向《大纪元》新闻网表示，根
据他从以往经验来看，「美中经济对话」不会取得实质�展。

U.S.' "Vigorous Disagreement" with China

The U.S.-China Strategic & Economic Dialogueconcluded on May 9 in
Washington D.C.According to Joe Biden, U.S. Vice President,there is a huge
gap between the two countrieson the issue of human rights. Hilary
Clinton,the U.S. Secretary of State saidthat the U.S. stated to China very
clearlytheir concern on human rights. Foreign mediareports that the Chinese
Communists Party (CCP)hopes to keep this dialogue on a low profile,in fear
of triggering domestic protests.

U.S. Vice President Joe Biden and U.S. Secretaryof State Hilary Clinton
expressed concerns to CCPauthorities about their records on human
rights,and current suppression of human rights activists.

U.S. Vice President Joe Biden: "We havea vigorous disagreement in the area
of human rights.We have noted our concerns about the recentcrackdown in
China, including attacks, arrestsand disappearances of journalists,
lawyers, bloggersand artists. And again, no relationship that is realcan be
built on a false foundation.Where we disagree, it is important to state it."

According to International Herald Tribune, althoughU.S. and China are
launching a new roundof strategic dialogues, the Chinese authoritieshave
started more intense criticism of the West.Some Chinese officials even told
foreign officialsin Beijing that they believe"the U.S. is inciting Chinese
revolution."

The headlining article on International Herald Tribunepointed out that in
the last 3 months, foreigners,especially Westerners in mainland China,feel
there is more censorship and pressureexerted by the Chinese government.

The report states that from February to April 2011,at least 60 activities
organized by the U.S. Embassyin Beijing, including foreigners'
participationin cultural forums and school activities,were canceled due to
authorities' intervention.In addition, the CCP Ministry of
Educationrepeatedly warned visiting scholars going abroadnot to participate
in "anti-China" activities.

The article pointed out that the Chinese authoritiesapply more stringent
examination on a numberof non-profit organizations. In
particular,organizations funded by the U.S. governmentor the European Union
are frequently harassedby Chinese officials. Moreover, with the
recentJasmine Revolutions across the Middle Eastand North Africa, many
Internet sites in China,including Twitter, Facebook, Google, etc.,are more
frequently blockedor harassed by the Chinese authorities.

Some analysts believe China will carry a low-profileattitude in recent
dialogues. Douglas Paal,Vice President of Carnegie Endowmentfor
International Peace Foundation, told AFP:"China does not want to hold a
large banquetor have a speech, probably because they wantto keep a low
profile on domestic events,and do not want to trigger protests."

Netizen "Chinese Man" posted on VOA:"The issue of human rights is very
important.I am very happy to see U.S. finally speak upon this issue in
front of the CCP."

In addition to human rights issues, the two countriesalso discussed
economic and trade issuessuch as the RMB exchange rate.However, U.S.
economic think-tank,Professor Allan H. Meltzer told The Epoch Times ,that
based on his past experiences he thinks"U.S.-China Economic Dialogue"will
not make much progress.
