美国家禽饲养者重新获得中国市场准入
美国禽肉出口额有望突破每年10亿美元
华盛顿DC——美国贸易代表罗伯特·莱特希泽和美国农业部长桑尼·珀杜就中国决定解除对从美国进口禽肉禁令发表了如下声明：
“美国欢迎中国最终解除对美国禽肉和禽肉产品无端禁令的决定。这对于美国农民和中国消费者而言都是一个好消息。”莱特希泽大使说。“对于美国的家禽饲养者来说，中国是一个重要的出口市场，我们估计他们现在每年将能够向中国出口价值超过10亿美元的禽肉和禽肉产品。美国禽肉重新打开中国市场，将为我们的家禽饲养者带来新的出口机会，并支持美国家禽业雇用数以千计的工人。”
珀杜部长说，“已被拒之门外多年的美国家禽生产商和出口商欢迎中国对其产品重新开放市场。美国生产商的生产力居全球之首。他们能够将自己丰富的产品出售给其他全球各地的消费者乃是至关重要的。我们将继续努力，在像中国和其他国家这样的重要市场扩大市场准入，进而支持我们的生产商和美国的就业。”
由于美国2014年12月爆发禽流感，中国已于2015年1月起禁止进口所有美国禽肉，即便美国自2017年8月起已无禽流感。2013年，美国对中国的禽肉产品出口额超过5亿美元。
美国是全球第二大禽肉出口国，去年向全球出口禽肉和禽肉产品价值达43亿美元。

American Poultry Farmers Regain Access to China
U.S. poultry exports expected to top $1 billion annually
Washington, DC – United States Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue released the following statement on China’s decision to lift its ban on poultry imports from the United States:
“The United States welcomes China’s decision to finally lift its unwarranted ban on U.S. poultry and poultry products.  This is great news for both America’s farmers and China’s consumers,” said Ambassador Lighthizer.  “China is an important export market for America’s poultry farmers, and we estimate they will now be able to export more than $1 billion worth of poultry and poultry products each year to China.  Reopening China to U.S. poultry will create new export opportunities for our poultry farmers and support thousands of workers employed by the U.S. poultry industry.”
Secretary Perdue said, “After being shut out of the market for years, U.S. poultry producers and exporters welcome the reopening of China’s market to their products.  America’s producers are the most productive in the world and it is critical they be able to sell their bounty to consumers in other parts of the globe. We will continue our work to expand market access in important markets like China as well as other countries, to support our producers and U.S. jobs.”
China has banned all U.S. poultry since January 2015 due to an avian influenza outbreak in December 2014, even though the United States has been free of this disease since August 2017.  The United States exported over $500 million worth of poultry products to China in 2013.
The United States is the world’s second largest poultry exporter, with global exports of poultry meat and products of $4.3 billion last year.

新闻声明 摩根·奥特葛斯 国务部发言人 华盛顿DC
2019年5月1日
根据国际特赦组织的报告，伊朗政权在设拉子（Shiraz）的阿德拉巴德（Adelabad）监狱中秘密处决了两名17岁的男性 Mehdi Sohrabifar和Amin Sedaghat。国务部对此感到惊骇。根据这份报告，伊朗已恢复处决未成年人，同时试图把这种不人道的做法隐匿于世人。这份报告指出伊朗还是世界上处决未成年人的头号刽子手。
伊朗政权不公正地缩短了两个男孩的生命。国际特赦组织的报告还记录了在他们死前的最后时刻当局实施的令人不安的虐待和鞭打。根据该特赦组织报告，当局进行了一系列可疑的法律操作，意欲任意拘押，随后两名男孩被匆忙定罪，当时他们只有15岁。
这些最近的对青少年的处决延续了伊朗再熟悉不过的做法。美国谴责伊朗处决甚至折磨未成年人的行为，该行为使伊朗成为世界上骇人听闻的头号儿童刽子手。不幸的是，国际特赦组织的调查结果与伊朗恶名昭著的整体人权记录一致。正如国际特赦组织指出的那样，目前有90多名青少年正面临被处决的风险。
这是无法接受的。我们将继续聚焦该政权，并请其他人与我们一道让伊朗的腐败领导人为他们的罪行负责。

Press Statement Morgan OrtagusDepartment SpokespersonWashington, DC
May 1, 2019
The Department of State is appalled by the Iranian regime’s secret execution of two 17-year old males, Mehdi Sohrabifar and Amin Sedaghat, in Adelabad prison in Shiraz, as reported by Amnesty International. According to this report, Iran has resumed its execution of minors, while attempting to keep this inhumane practice hidden from the world. The report notes that Iran is also the top executioner of children in the world.
The Iranian regime unjustly cut short the two boys’ lives. The Amnesty International report also documented disturbing abuse and floggings inflicted by authorities in the final moments before their deaths. According to the Amnesty report, the boys were just 15 when they received hasty convictions following a questionable set of legal maneuvers that suggest arbitrary detention.
These most recent juvenile executions follow an all-too-familiar practice in Iran. The United States condemns Iran’s practice of executing and even torturing minors, giving it the appalling distinction as the world’ leading executioner of children. Amnesty International’s finding unfortunately is consistent with Iran’s egregious overall human rights record. More than 90 juveniles, as Amnesty International notes, are currently at risk of execution.
This is unacceptable. We will continue to shine the light on the regime and ask others to join us in holding Iran’s corrupt leaders accountable for their crimes.

安东尼·布林肯国务卿就签署防止强迫维吾尔人劳动法发表声明
拜登总统今天签署《防止强迫维吾尔人劳动法》（Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act），突出表明美国致力于打击强迫劳动——包括发生在新疆当前种族灭绝背景下的强迫劳动——的决心。
国务院致力于与国会和我们的跨部门伙伴一道，继续着力解决新疆强劳问题，并对这种骇人的践踏人权行径加强国际行动。这项新法律给予美国政府新的工具，防止新疆强劳产品进入美国市场，并进一步促进对践权行径负有责任的个人和实体追究责任。
解决强迫劳动问题一直是本政府的一项重点。我们已为促进在新疆问责采取具体措施，包括签证限制，全球马格尼茨基人权问责法（Global Magnitsky）和其他金融制裁，出口管制，暂扣令（Withhold Release Orders）和进口限制，以及发布针对新疆的工商咨询公告——并在同时，号召盟国和合作伙伴采取联合行动，确保全球所有供应链不使用强迫劳动，包括来自新疆。
我们将继续尽我们的一切努力，使渴望摆脱强迫劳动的人重获尊严。我们呼吁中华人民共和国政府立即停止针对以穆斯林为主的维吾尔族人和新疆其他少数民族及宗教少数派群体成员进行的种族灭绝和反人类罪行。

The Signing of the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act
President Biden today signed the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, underscoring the United States’ commitment to combatting forced labor, including in the context of the ongoing genocide in Xinjiang.
The State Department is committed to working with Congress and our interagency partners to continue addressing forced labor in Xinjiang and to strengthen international action against this egregious violation of human rights.  This new law gives the U.S. government new tools to prevent goods made with forced labor in Xinjiang from entering U.S. markets and to further promote accountability for persons and entities responsible for these abuses.
Addressing forced labor has been a priority for this Administration. We have taken concrete measures to promote accountability in Xinjiang, including visa restrictions, Global Magnitsky and other financial sanctions, export controls, Withhold Release Orders and import restrictions, and the release of a business advisory on Xinjiang – all while rallying allies and partners to take joint action to ensure all global supply chains are free from the use of forced labor, including from Xinjiang.
We will continue doing everything we can to restore the dignity of those who yearn to be free from forced labor. We call on the Government of the People’s Republic of China to immediately end genocide and crimes against humanity against the predominantly Muslim Uyghurs and members of other ethnic and religious minority groups in Xinjiang.
Release of the United States Strategy on Women, Peace, and Security 
世界各地的女性在预防与解决冲突、提供安全保障、和平进程以及打击恐怖主义上扮演着不可或缺的角色。十多年来，美国一直是通过赋能女性来承担这些角色以及通过着手解决在受到冲突和灾害影响的地区妇女与女童面对的挑战来推动全球和平与稳定的领导者。今天，经特朗普总统发布的美国女性、和平与安全战略（U.S. Strategy on Women, Peace, and Security），美国再次确认我们在这些问题上的领导地位。
该战略指示国务部在推动稳定和持久和平的工作中确保妇女与女童有意义的参与和安全，同时增强美国伙伴推进女性、和平与安全的能力。我们很自豪能够与国防部、国土安全部和美国国际发展署（USAID）共同承担这项任务。国务部将在实施这一战略的过程中，调动美国外交的独特贡献。
美国认识到，在经济和政治上赋能女性的社会更加稳定、和平。正因为如此，该战略是整个政府的努力，对近期宣布的妇女全球发展与繁荣倡议构成补充。 这两项努力都突出显示了特朗普总统所强调的赋能女性充分参与公民生活和经济生活的重要性，从而建立更加和平、繁荣的社会。

Women around the world have an essential role in conflict prevention and resolution, security provision, peace processes, and countering terrorism.  For over a decade, the United States has been a leader in promoting global peace and stability by empowering women to take on those roles and addressing challenges faced by women and girls in conflict and disaster affected areas.  Today, the United States reaffirms our leadership on these issues with President Trump’s release of the U.S. Strategy on Women, Peace, and Security.
The strategy directs the Department of State to ensure women and girls’ meaningful participation and safety in efforts to promote stable and lasting peace as well as enhance U.S. partners’ capacity to advance women, peace, and security.  We are proud to take on this task in partnership with the Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security, and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).  The Department of State will mobilize the unique contributions of American diplomacy through the implementation of this strategy.
The United States recognizes that societies which empower women economically and politically are more stable and peaceful.  As such, the strategy is a government-wide effort, complementing the recently announced Women’s Global Development and Prosperity Initiative.  Both efforts underscore President Trump’s emphasis on the importance of empowering women to participate fully in civic and economic life, leading to more peaceful and prosperous societies.
2020/2021年中国仍是赴美国际学生的首要来源国
根据11月15日发布的《2021年国际教育交流门户开放报告》，2020/21年有超过31.7万名中国学生在美国院校就读，并且中国仍然是在美国际学生的第一大来源。美国是接收中国赴海外留学生最多的国家。
全球疫情影响了世界各地的国际教育交流和学生流动，美国也未能幸免。在美国学习的国际学生总体上下降了15%，而来自中国的学生下降的比例低于全球下降比例。中国学生和家长仍然视美国为他们留学的首选目的地。美国驻华使团也已对中国家长和学生表现出的兴趣做出回应，自2021年5月以来，发放了超过9万份学生签证，显示美国欢迎中国学生和学者的到来。
正如美国国务院和美国教育部近期发布的《支持国际教育的各项原则的联合声明》所重申，美国致力于国际教育，包括学生进出美国的流动性。国际学生的流动性是外交、创新、经济繁荣和国家安全的重要组成。正如安东尼·J·布林肯国务卿所言，它是“对外政策中必不可少的”。我们相信世界各地的学生及其家庭将继续重视美国教育，同时我们期待走出目前的疫情，继续欢迎来自世界各地的学生，包括来自中国的学生，来到美国高校。
《门户开放报告》由美国国务院支持，由美国政府提供经费，由美国国际教育协会（IIE）支持执行。报告是介绍在美国的国际学生和学者，以及美国学生为获得学分而赴国外学习情况的唯一长期而全面的信息来源。阅读2021年《门户开放报告》请访问：https://opendoorsdata.org/ 。

China Remains the Top Sender of International Students to the United States in 2020/2021
According to the Open Doors 2021 Report on International Educational Exchange released on November 15, more than 317,000 Chinese students enrolled in U.S. institutions in 2020/21, and China remains the number one source of international students in the United States.  The United States hosts the largest number of Chinese students studying outside of China.
The global pandemic affected international educational exchange and student mobility around the world, and the United States was not immune.  There has been a 15% drop in international students studying in the U.S. overall, and the number from China is lower than the global percentage drop.  Chinese students and parents still see the United States as their top destination for international study.  Mission China has responded to the interest shown by Chinese parents and students by issuing over 90,000 student visas since May 2021, demonstrating that Chinese students and scholars are welcome in the United States.
The United States is committed to international education, including student mobility to and from the United States, as reiterated in the recent Joint Statement of Principles in Support of International Education by the U.S. Departments of State and Education.  International student mobility is central to diplomacy, innovation, economic prosperity, and national security.  As Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken has said, it is, “a foreign policy imperative.”  We are confident that a U.S. education will continue to be valued by students and their families around the world, and we look forward to emerging from the current pandemic and continuing to welcome students from around the world – including those from China – to U.S. colleges and universities.
The Open Doors Report is sponsored by the U.S. Department of State with funding provided by the U.S. Government and supported in its implementation by the Institute for International Education (IIE).  The report is the only long-standing, comprehensive information resource on international students and scholars in the United States and on U.S. students studying abroad for academic credit.  To read the full Open Doors 2021 Report, please visit:  https://opendoorsdata.org/.

美国正式重新加入《巴黎协定》
美国东部标准时间 2021年2月19日 上午07:49
安东尼·J·布林肯国务卿
1月20日，拜登总统于就任首日签署文书，使美国重返《巴黎协定》。根据《协定》条款，美国于今天正式重新成为《协定》的成员国。
《巴黎协定》是一项前所未有的行动框架。我们知道这一点，是因为我们帮助设计了它并使之成为现实。《协定》的目的既简单又广泛：帮助我们所有人避免灾难性的全球变暖，同时提高世界各地应对我们已经看到的气候变化的影响的复原力。
虽然2016年我们加入《协定》意义重大，如今我们的重新加入同样意义重大，但我们在未来数周、数月和数年的行动甚至还要更加重要。
你们已经看到并将继续看到我们将气候变化纳入我们在各个层面上最重要的双边和多变对话之中。在这些对话中，我们在问其他领导人：我们如何才能一起做更多？
气候变化和科学外交绝不能再变成我们外交政策讨论的“附加项”。应对气候变化带来的现实威胁以及聆听我们的科学家在我们的内政外交政策优先事项中占有中心地位。在我们有关国家安全、移民、国际健康卫生工作的讨论中，以及在我们的经济外交和贸易会谈中，它们是至关重要的。
我们正在全方位地重新与世界进行接触，包括通过总统将在4月22日举办的领导人气候峰会。时间再放远一些，我们非常期待与英国和世界各地其他国家一起努力，使COP26气候峰会取得成功。

The United States Officially Rejoins the Paris Agreement
Antony J. Blinken, Secretary of State
On January 20, on his first day in office, President Biden signed the instrument to bring the United States back into the Paris Agreement. Per the terms of the Agreement, the United States officially becomes a Party again today.
The Paris Agreement is an unprecedented framework for global action. We know because we helped design it and make it a reality. Its purpose is both simple and expansive: to help us all avoid catastrophic planetary warming and to build resilience around the world to the impacts from climate change we already see.
Now, as momentous as our joining the Agreement was in 2016 — and as momentous as our rejoining is today — what we do in the coming weeks, months, and years is even more important.
You have seen and will continue to see us weaving climate change into our most important bilateral and multilateral conversations at all levels. In these conversations, we’re asking other leaders: how can we do more together?
Climate change and science diplomacy can never again be “add-ons” in our foreign policy discussions. Addressing the real threats from climate change and listening to our scientists is at the center of our domestic and foreign policy priorities. It is vital in our discussions of national security, migration, international health efforts, and in our economic diplomacy and trade talks.
We are reengaging the world on all fronts, including at the President’s April 22nd Leaders’ Climate Summit. And further out, we very much looking forward to working with the United Kingdom and other nations around the world to make COP26 a success.

美国将为乌克兰人民追加提供2.05亿美元人道主义援助，作为我们支持遭受俄罗斯对乌克兰的无端、无理和残暴战争影响的人们的努力之一。通过在该地区的国际和非政府合作伙伴，美国人道主义援助为乌克兰人民提供关键支持，包括食品、安全饮用水、保护服务、教育、生计、法律援助、无障碍住房、医疗保健等。这些资金还将用于帮助冲突受害者与失散的家人保持联系，并在可能的情况下促成家庭团聚。
 
自俄罗斯入侵以来，已有600多万难民逃离乌克兰，500多万人在乌克兰境内流离失所。还有数百万乌克兰人受到俄罗斯在乌克兰境内的攻击的影响。我们提供的资金将使2023财年为乌克兰提供的人道主义援助总额超过6.05亿美元，进一步支持应对危机的人道主义组织，并补充其他国家欢迎和支持难民的慷慨举措。自2022年2月以来，美国已在乌克兰境内及该地区为乌克兰人民提供了超过21亿美元的人道主义援助。
 
我们继续呼吁立即结束俄罗斯的侵略战争，并要求俄罗斯为乌克兰境内的人道主义援助人员提供畅通无阻的通道，同时为那些寻求迁往安全地区的人提供安全通行。美国的应对措施将增进乌克兰的整体安全、经济复苏、能源安全，以及应对俄罗斯战争造成的人道危机的能力。我们对其他捐助方为应对这场危机所做的贡献表示欢迎，并敦促更多的捐助方慷慨协助解决乌克兰及该地区严峻的人道主义需求。

JUNE 16, 2023
 
The United States is providing $205 million in additional humanitarian assistance for the people of Ukraine as part of our support for those affected by Russia’s unprovoked, unjustified, and brutal war against Ukraine. U.S. humanitarian assistance provides the people of Ukraine with critical support, including food, safe drinking water, protection services, education, livelihoods, legal assistance, accessible shelter, health care, and more through our international and non-governmental partners in the region.  These funds also help victims of the conflict maintain contact with family members who have been separated and promotes family reunification when possible.
Since the onset of Russia’s invasion, more than six million refugees have fled the country and more than five million have been internally displaced inside Ukraine.  Millions more Ukrainians have been impacted by Russia’s attacks inside Ukraine.  Our funding, which brings the total humanitarian assistance provided to Ukraine in Fiscal Year 2023 to more than $605 million, provides further support for humanitarian organizations responding to the crisis and complements the generosity of countries that are welcoming and supporting refugees. Since February 2022, the United States has provided more than $2.1 billion in humanitarian assistance for the people of Ukraine, both inside Ukraine and in the region.
We continue to call for an immediate end to Russia’s war of aggression and for Russia to facilitate unhindered access to providers of humanitarian assistance in Ukraine and safe passage for those who seek to move to safer areas.  The U.S. response is advancing Ukraine’s overall security, economic recovery, energy security, and capacity to cope with the humanitarian crisis created by Russia’s war.  We welcome the contributions of other donors toward this crisis response and urge yet more donors to generously support the serious humanitarian needs in Ukraine and the region.

安东尼·布林肯国务卿声明
过去一年来，中华人民共和国继续瓦解香港的民主机制，对司法体系施加空前压力，窒息学术、文化和新闻自由。在香港主权移交北京25周年即将到来时，随着中华人民共和国加紧管控，香港的自由每况愈下。中华人民共和国的不断压制正在使香港同中国大陆城市的区别日益缩小。
今年的《香港政策法报告》（Hong Kong Policy Act Report）记录了香港和中华人民共和国领导人所采取的进一步削弱民主机制和人权的行动，它们严重阻碍了独立媒体的运作和言论自由。这些政策对香港生活各方面具有深远影响，包括国际商务和金融界。
对香港居民的大批逮捕，以及对包括《苹果日报》（Apple Daily）和六四纪念馆（June 4 Museum）在内的机构的强行关闭，突出反映了具有深刻破坏力的这些变化的程度范围。针对风险上升和不确定性加大，一些在香港的国际公司已经全部搬迁到其他地方，还有些则将重要的人员和业务转换到其他地方。北京最终将迫使香港许多最优秀和最有才华的人逃离香港，从而玷污香港的声誉，削弱香港的竞争力。香港作为自由的全球金融中心的地位将因此继续遭受损害。
一个充分运转的公民社会、法治和个人的自由权利是使社会蓬勃发展的根基。我们与香港人民站在一起。

PRESS STATEMENT
ANTONY J. BLINKEN, SECRETARY OF STATE
MARCH 31, 2022
Over the past year, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) has continued to dismantle Hong Kong’s democratic institutions, placed unprecedented pressure on the judiciary, and stifled academic, cultural, and press freedoms.  As the 25th anniversary of Hong Kong’s handover to Beijing approaches, Hong Kong’s freedoms are diminishing while the PRC tightens its rule.The differences between Hong Kong and cities in mainland China are shrinking due to ongoing repression from the PRC.
This year’s Hong Kong Policy Act Report documents actions taken by leaders in Hong Kong and the PRC that have further eroded both democratic institutions and human rights, and profoundly impaired independent media operations and freedom of expression.  These policies have far-reaching implications for all aspects of life in the city, including for the international business and financial communities.
Sweeping arrests of Hong Kong residents, as well as the forced closure of institutions including Apple Daily and the June 4 Museum, underscore the scope of these deeply damaging changes. In response to heightened risk and uncertainty, some international firms in Hong Kong have relocated entirely, while others have shifted key staff or operations elsewhere. Beijing will ultimately force many of the city’s best and brightest to flee, tarnishing Hong Kong’s reputation and weakening its competitiveness. Hong Kong’s position as a free, global financial center will continue to suffer as a result.
A fully functioning civil society, rule of law, and individual liberties form the bedrock on which vibrant societies grow.  We stand with people in Hong Kong.
