2001年9月11日，恐怖分子在我国历史上针对我们国土最严重的袭击中造成近3000人死亡、6000多人受伤。今天，我们缅怀和铭记那些时刻，并与纽约市、弗吉尼亚州阿灵顿和宾夕法尼亚州尚克斯维尔遇难者的家人与朋友站在一起。
 
美国国务院的员工永远不会忘记那个悲惨的日子、被夺走的许多生命，以及冲进危险中拯救他们的现场急救员。我们还缅怀 2012年这一天在利比亚班加西遇害的同事们。他们的无畏与牺牲继续激励着国务院和我们的国家。
 
对9/11遇难者的记忆提醒我们，为什么我们必须继续打击那些实施恐怖主义行为的人。自那以来，我们一直与世界各地的伙伴并肩努力，终结恐怖主义祸害，并确保恐怖分子承担其罪责。美国将继续保卫我们的国土、我们的人民及我们的盟友。

SEPTEMBER 11, 2023
 
On September 11, 2001, terrorists killed nearly 3,000 people and injured more than 6,000 others in the worst attack against the homeland in our nation’s history. Today we honor their memories and stand with the families and friends of those who perished in New York City, Arlington, Virginia, and Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
The men and women of the U.S. Department of State will never forget that tragic day, the many lives lost, and the first responders who rushed into danger to save them. We also remember our colleagues who were killed on this day in 2012 in Benghazi, Libya. Their bravery and sacrifice continue to be an inspiration for this Department and our nation.
The memory of those who perished on 9/11 reminds us of why we must continue to fight against those who commit acts of terrorism. In the years since, we have stood side by side with partners from around the world to end the scourge of terrorism and ensure terrorists are held accountable for their crimes. The United States will continue to defend our homeland, our people, and our allies.

石油和石化产品是伊朗政权主要的收入来源。该政权将这些收入用于压迫伊朗人民并推进该政权对外的邪恶议程。
******
……美国财政部现根据第13846号行政令对四家实体进行制裁，理由是这些实体为此前已被美国制裁的众祥石化有限公司（Triliance Petrochemical Co. Ltd）提供实质援助或支持。这四家实体为：总部在中国的东海国际船舶管理有限公司和东南石化有限公司，以及总部在阿联酋的阿尔法科技交易公司（Alpha Tech Trading FZE）和石油联盟交易公司（Petroliance Trading FZE）。
作为美国极限施压行动的直接结果，伊朗为明年拟定的军事和“安全”预算大幅下降了24%。最新的制裁削弱了该政权针对伊朗人民施加人权侵犯的能力。我们重申只有伊朗政权行为发生根本性改变，才能带来一条解除制裁的路径。

Petroleum and petrochemicals are major sources of revenue for the Iranian regime, revenue it employs to oppress the Iranian people and to advance its malign foreign agenda.
Today, the Department of State is imposing sanctions on Vietnam Gas and Chemicals Transportation Corporation, a vessel manager, pursuant to Executive Order (E.O.) 13846, for knowingly engaging, on or after November 5, 2018, in a significant transaction for the transport of petroleum products from Iran.  The Department of State is also imposing sanctions pursuant to E.O. 13846 on the company’s Managing Director, Vo Ngoc Phung, for serving as a principal executive officer of the company.
Concurrently, the Department of the Treasury is imposing sanctions on four entities pursuant to E.O 13846, for providing material assistance or support to Triliance Petrochemical Co. Ltd., a U.S. designated entity.  They are China-based Donghai International Ship Management Limited and Petrochem South East Limited, as well as UAE-based Alpha Tech Trading FZE and Petroliance Trading FZE.
As a direct result of the U.S. maximum pressure campaign, Iran’s military and “security” budget proposal for next year has decreased by a massive 24 percent.  These latest sanctions degrade the regime’s ability to inflict human rights abuses on the Iranian people.  We reiterate that only a fundamental change in the Iranian regime’s behavior can provide a path towards sanctions relief.
For more information about today’s action, please see the Department of the Treasury’s press release .

2019年8月13日
华盛顿哥伦比亚特区—今天，美国贸易代表（United States Trade Representative）宣布对来自中国的约3,000亿美元进口加征10%关税一事的下一步措施。
2019年5月17日，美国贸易代表公布了对来自中国的进口可能加征10%关税的税目清单。特朗普总统（President Trump）于8月1日宣布，新征收的关税将于9月1日生效。
考虑到健康、安全、国家安全等方面的因素，关税清单删除了某些类别的产品，不对这些产品加征10%的关税。
此外，经美国贸易代表通过征求公众意见和听证程序，现决定对某些产品加征的关税推迟至12月15日。例如，这个类别的产品有手机、手提电脑、视频游戏机、某些种类的玩具、电脑屏幕及某些鞋类制品和服装。
今天美国贸易代表将在其网站上公布更多的细节和受本公告影响的税目清单，同时尽快在《联邦公报》（Federal Register）刊出。

Washington, DC – The United States Trade Representative (USTR) today announced the next steps in the process of imposing an additional tariff of 10 percent on approximately $300 billion of Chinese imports.
On May 17, 2019, USTR published a list of products imported from China that would be potentially subject to an additional 10 percent tariff.  This new tariff will go into effect on September 1 as announced by President Trump on August 1.
Certain products are being removed from the tariff list based on health, safety, national security and other factors and will not face additional tariffs of 10 percent.
Further, as part of USTR’s public comment and hearing process, it was determined that the tariff should be delayed to December 15 for certain articles.  Products in this group include, for example, cell phones, laptop computers, video game consoles, certain toys, computer monitors, and certain items of footwear and clothing.
USTR intends to conduct an exclusion process for products subject to the additional tariff.
The USTR will publish on its website today, and in the Federal Register as soon as possible, additional details and lists of the tariff lines affected by this announcement.

美国以最强烈措辞谴责复活节上午发生在斯里兰卡的恐怖袭击。针对在敬拜场所聚会或享受假日大餐的无辜人民的袭击，是对我们珍视的普世价值和自由的侮辱，再次展示出激进恐怖分子的残暴本质，他们唯一的目的是威胁和平与安全。
美国向被杀害者的家人和朋友致以最深切的慰唁，并祝愿所有受伤人员迅速康复。虽然这场袭击的很多细节仍在披露中，我们可以确认被杀害者中有数位美国公民。美国大使馆正在不懈地努力向受这场袭击影响的美国公民和他们的家人提供一切可能的援助。
这些卑劣的袭击清楚地提醒了为什么美国继续坚决地打击恐怖主义。在斯里兰卡政府和人民对抗暴力极端主义时，我们与他们站在一起，并在他们努力将行凶者绳之以法时提供了我们的帮助。

Press StatementMichael R. PompeoSecretary of State
Washington, DC
April 21, 2019
The United States condemns in the strongest terms the terror attacks in Sri Lanka on Easter morning. Attacks on innocent people gathering in a place of worship or enjoying a holiday meal are affronts to the universal values and freedoms that we hold dear, and demonstrate yet again the brutal nature of radical terrorists whose sole aim is to threaten peace and security.
The United States offers our deepest condolences to the families and friends of those killed and wishes a quick recovery to all who were injured. While many details of the attacks are still emerging, we can confirm that several U.S. citizens were among those killed. The U.S. Embassy is working tirelessly to provide all possible assistance to the American citizens affected by the attacks and their families.
These vile attacks are a stark reminder of why the United States remains resolved in our fight to defeat terrorism. We stand with the Sri Lankan government and people as they confront violent extremism and have offered our assistance as they work to bring the perpetrators to justice.

美国正在关注香港局势并予以严重关切。我们谴责所有各方的暴力，向暴力受害者表达同情，无论其政治倾向， 同时呼吁各方—警方和抗议者—保持克制。我们重申特朗普总统以人道方案解决抗议问题的呼吁。香港社会内部两极分化加剧，凸显了政府、抗议者，及广大市民之间开展真诚而有广泛基础的对话的必要性。美国敦促香港政府在与香港公众开展对话的基础上进一步努力，开始着手处理驱动抗议的深层关切。我们也敦促示抗议对话的努力做出回应。
美国相信香港自治、坚守法治，并致力于保护公民自由，是保持其在美国法律下的特殊地位的关键，也是 “一国两制”的成功以及香港未来稳定与繁荣的关键。我们敦促北京遵守其在《中英联合声明》中做出的承诺，包括承诺香港将“享有高度自治权”，以及香港人民将享有人权以及言论与和平集会自由—这些是我们与香港共有的核心价值观。

Press StatementSpokesperson Morgan OrtagusNovember 11, 2019, Washington, DC
The United States is watching the situation in Hong Kong with grave concern.  ‎We condemn violence on all sides, extend our sympathies to victims of violence regardless of their political inclinations, and call for all parties— police and protestors— to exercise restraint.‎  We repeat President Trump’s call for a humane resolution to the protests.
The increased polarization within Hong Kong society underscores the need for a broad-based and sincere dialogue between the government, protestors, and citizenry writ large.  The United States urges the Hong Kong government to build on its dialogue with the Hong Kong public and begin efforts to address the underlying concerns driving the protests.  We also urge the protestors to respond to efforts at dialogue.
The United States believes that Hong Kong’s autonomy, its adherence to the rule of law, and its commitment to protecting civil liberties are key to preserving its special status under U.S. law, as well as to the success of “One Country, Two Systems” and Hong Kong’s future stability and prosperity.  We urge Beijing to honor the commitments it made in the Sino-British Joint Declaration, including commitments that Hong Kong will “enjoy a high degree of autonomy” and that the people of Hong Kong will enjoy human rights the freedoms of expression and peaceful assembly— core values that we share with Hong Kong.

向乌克兰及其邻国增加提供28亿美元美国军事援助
安东尼·布林肯国务卿的声明
自普京总统二月份入侵乌克兰以来，已经过去7个月了，这场战争的惨重后果还在继续加重。数以千计的平民伤亡，1300万乌克兰民众被迫流离失所，历史名城被炸成瓦砾，有关令人发指的暴行的报告不断传来，核电站处于风险，粮食短缺，全世界粮食价格飙升。乌克兰杰出的保卫者们继续在前线为他们国家的自由而英勇奋战，而且拜登总统已经阐明我们将一直持续支持乌克兰人民。我今天在基辅向泽连斯基总统和他的团队重申了这一点，基辅现在是而且将永远是一个拥有主权和独立的乌克兰的首都。
我还告诉泽连斯基总统，我根据总统委托授权自2021年9月以来第20次为乌克兰提供美国武器和装备。这笔6.75亿美元的调拨物资包括来自美国国防部库存的更多的武器、弹药和装备——乌克兰军队一直在使用这些装备极有效力地保卫自己的国家。
此外，我们今天还告知国会根据《外国军事融资》（Foreign Military Financing）新增22亿美元长期投资的意向，以增强乌克兰及其18个邻国的安全；其中包括我们的很多北约盟国，以及面临俄罗斯进一步入侵的风险的其他地区安全伙伴。
这几项宣布将使美国自本届政府就职以来对乌克兰的军事援助总计达到约152亿美元。
美国正在同来自50多个国家的盟友及合作伙伴为支持乌克兰的防卫提供安全援助。我们正在审慎地为在战场上发挥最大作用提供所需的各项能力。
我们同乌克兰团结在一起。

PRESS STATEMENT
ANTONY J. BLINKEN, SECRETARY OF STATE
SEPTEMBER 8, 2022
It has been seven months since President Putin’s February invasion of Ukraine, and the war’s terrible toll continues to mount. Thousands of civilians killed or wounded, 13 million Ukrainian civilians forced to flee their homes, historic cities pounded to rubble, horrifying reports of ongoing atrocities, nuclear power stations put at risk, food shortages, skyrocketing food prices around the world. Ukraine’s extraordinary front-line defenders continue to courageously fight for their country’s freedom, and President Biden has been clear we will support the people of Ukraine for as long as it takes. I reiterated this message to President Zelenskyy and his team today in Kyiv, which remains ̶ and will remain ̶ the capital of a sovereign, independent Ukraine.
I also informed President Zelenskyy that, pursuant to a delegation of authority from the President, I am authorizing our twentieth drawdown since September 2021 of U.S. arms and equipment for Ukraine. This $675 million drawdown includes additional arms, munitions, and equipment from U.S. Department of Defense inventories ̶ equipment that Ukraine’s forces have used so effectively for their country’s defense.
In addition, we are also notifying Congress today of our intent to make a further $2.2 billion available in long-term investments under Foreign Military Financing to bolster the security of Ukraine and 17 of its neighbors; including many of our NATO Allies, as well as other regional security partners potentially at risk of future Russian aggression.
These announcements will bring the total U.S. military assistance for Ukraine to approximately $15.2 billion since the beginning of this Administration.
The United States is providing security assistance alongside our allies and partners from more than 50 countries to support Ukraine’s defense. The capabilities we are delivering are carefully calibrated to make the most difference on the battlefield.
We stand United with Ukraine.

新闻秘书珍·莎琪关于拜登总统与G7首脑举行会晤的声明

2022年2月24日
总统与七国集团（G7）领导人重申对普京总统向乌克兰发动无端无理攻击做出迅速回应的决心，同时表达了将与乌克兰人民团结一心。在数月来的协调的基础之上，G7领导人一致同意推进毁灭性一揽子制裁及他经济措施以对俄罗斯进行追责。G7构成了世界主要的民主政体，占世界经济总量的50%。G7将要共同使俄罗斯付出的代价将是前所未有的。鉴于普京做出的选择，俄罗斯现将即刻面临沉重的经济压力以及被全球金融系统、全球贸易和前沿技术孤立的高昂代价。G7领导人还一致同意加强现有举措，控制俄罗斯的行动带来的任何外溢影响，同时保障全球能源市场稳定。拜登总统向德国总理奥拉夫·肖尔茨表达了感谢，感谢他在此关键时刻将G7所有领导人召集起来。

Statement by Press Secretary Jen Psaki on President Biden’s Meeting with G7 Leaders
FEBRUARY 24, 2022•STATEMENTS AND RELEASES

The President and G7 Leaders reaffirmed their resolve to respond swiftly to President Putin’s unprovoked and unjustified attack on Ukraine and expressed their solidarity with the people of Ukraine. The Leaders built on their months-long coordination and agreed to move forward on devastating packages of sanctions and other economic measures to hold Russia to account. The G7 makes up the world’s leading democracies and 50% of the world’s economy—and the costs the G7 will impose together on Russia will be unprecedented. As a result of Putin’s choices, Russia will now face immediate and intense pressure on its economy and massive costs from its isolation from the global financial system, global trade, and cutting-edge technology. The Leaders also agreed to intensify ongoing efforts to mitigate any spillover effects from Russia’s actions and to secure stability in global energy markets. President Biden conveyed his thanks to German Chancellor Olaf Scholz for bringing all the Leaders together in this critical moment.

终止针对记者犯罪不受惩罚现象国际日
媒体声明
美国国务院发言人内德·普赖斯
2021年11月2日
自由、独立的媒体让领导者承担责任，保护公民的权利，并确保我们的民众充分了解情况。在太多国家，新闻工作者因其报道而面临暴力或监禁的威胁。美国谴责针对记者和媒体工作者的威胁、骚扰和暴力行为。这些威胁越来越多地来自那些将手伸到其国界之外的政府，包括通过滥用数字监控工具追踪新闻工作者的通讯和行踪，以限制新闻工作者报道政府腐败或压迫的能力。新闻界的任何成员都不应因其所做工作而受到威胁、骚扰、人身攻击或逮捕。
我们赞同拜登总统的声明，该声明赞扬了诺贝尔委员会对菲律宾记者玛丽亚·雷萨和俄罗斯记者德米特里·穆拉托夫的表彰。我们对准确、基于事实的报道、公开的公共对话和问责制的需求从未如此强烈。现在，我们比以往任何时候都更加必须反对在世界各地使用人身攻击、网络骚扰、恐吓诉讼和监管压力来噤声媒体这一日渐增多的现象。
在终止针对记者犯罪不受惩罚现象国际日，我们重申我们的决心，倡导媒体开放、不受不公正限制，并对那些攻击新闻自由的人追究责任。我们也缅怀那些在工作中被杀害的记者和其他媒体工作者。美国国务院致力于在国内外推进新闻自由，我们敦促其他政府对那些针对新闻工作者进行骚扰、威胁和使用暴力的人追究责任。

The International Day to End Impunity for Crimes against Journalists
NED PRICE, DEPARTMENT SPOKESPERSON
NOVEMBER 2, 2021
A free and independent press holds leaders accountable, protects the rights of citizens, and ensures our communities are well informed. In too many countries, journalists face the threat of violence or imprisonment for their reporting. The United States condemns threats, harassment, and violence targeting journalists and media workers.  Increasingly, these threats come from governments reaching beyond their borders, including through misuse of digital surveillance tools that track journalists’ communications and whereabouts, to constrain the ability of journalists to report on government corruption or repression. No members of the press should be threatened, harassed, physically attacked, or arrested for doing their job.
We echo President Biden’s statement applauding the Nobel Committee for honoring journalists Maria Ressa of the Philippines and Dmitry Muratov of Russia. Our need for accurate, fact-based reporting, open public conversation, and accountability has never been greater. Now, more than ever, we must stand against the increasing use of physical attacks, online harassment, intimidation lawsuits and regulatory pressures being used to silence media around the world.
On the International Day to End Impunity for Crimes Against Journalists, we renew our resolve to advocate for an open press free from unjust restrictions, and to hold to account those who attack press freedom. We also remember those journalists and other media professionals who were killed in the line of duty. The Department is committed to advancing press freedom at home and abroad, and we urge other governments to hold accountable those who target journalists with harassment, intimidation, and violence.

美国强烈谴责对三名从事民主活动的学生实施的逮捕和拘押，并要求香港当局立即释放仍然被拘押的人员。受北京控制的香港政府继续压制不同意见，钳制公共舆论，并利用执法行动达到政治目的。
中华人民共和国已经违反了根据1984年《中英联合声明》（Sino-British Joint Declaratio）应承担的国际义务，同时中国共产党及其香港代理人剥夺了得到承诺的香港自治，毁弃了香港对人权的尊重，包括和平集会和自由表达的权利。美国与香港人民站在一起。

Arrest and Detention of Student Democracy Activists in Hong Kong Under the National Security Law
The United States strongly condemns the arrest and detention of three student democracy activists and calls on Hong Kong authorities to release those that remain detained immediately. The Beijing-controlled Hong Kong government continues to stifle dissent, repress public opinion, and use law enforcement for political purposes.
The People’s Republic of China has violated its international obligations under the 1984 Sino-British Joint Declaration, while the Chinese Communist Party and its Hong Kong proxies crush the promised autonomy of Hong Kong, and eviscerate Hong Kong’s respect for human rights, including the rights to peaceful assembly and freedom of expression. The United States stands with the people of Hong Kong.

认定孔子学院美国中心为中华人民共和国驻外使团
 
特朗普政府（Trump Administration）已将寻求中华人民共和国提供公平和对等的待遇列为一项重要事务。四十多年来，北京可通过自由和开放的渠道进入美国社会，与此同时却拒绝在中国的美国人和其他外国人得到同样的待遇。此外，中华人民共和国还利用美国的开放性，在美国大规模开展经费充足的宣传活动和制造影响的行动。
今天，国务院认定孔子学院美国中心（Confucius Institute U.S. Center）为中华人民共和国驻外使团，以正其名求其实：在美国各校园和12年制学校推广北京全球宣传和恶劣影响的实体。孔子学院由中华人民共和国提供经费，是中国共产党全球影响和宣传机器的组成部分。
上述行动的目的很简单：确保美国的教育工作者和学校管理人员在知情的情况下做出选择，考虑是否允许这些中国共产党支持的项目继续实施，如若如此可采取什么方式。美国和世界各地的大学正纷纷对孔子学院的课程及北京在各自教育体系中制造影响的广度进行审议。美国希望保障美国各校学生在不受中国共产党及其代理人操纵的情况下有机会学习中国语言和文化课程。

PRESS STATEMENT
MICHAEL R. POMPEO, SECRETARY OF STATE
AUGUST 13, 2020
The Trump Administration has made it a priority to seek fair and reciprocal treatment from the People’s Republic of China. For more than four decades, Beijing has enjoyed free and open access to U.S. society, while denying that same access to Americans and other foreigners in China.  Furthermore, the PRC has taken advantage of America’s openness to undertake large scale and well-funded propaganda efforts and influence operations in this country.
Today, the Department of State designated the Confucius Institute U.S. Center as a foreign mission of the PRC, recognizing CIUS for what it is:  an entity advancing Beijing’s global propaganda and malign influence campaign on U.S. campuses and K-12 classrooms.  Confucius Institutes are funded by the PRC and part of the Chinese Communist Party’s global influence and propaganda apparatus.
The goal of these actions is simple: to ensure that American educators and school administrators can make informed choices about whether these CCP-backed programs should be allowed to continue, and if so, in what fashion. Universities around the country and around the world are examining the Confucius Institutes’ curriculum and the scope of Beijing’s influence in their education systems.  The United States wants to ensure that students on U.S. campuses have access to Chinese language and cultural offerings free from the manipulation of the Chinese Communist Party and its proxies.
