【禁闻】德国汉学家访华 遭北京“拒签”

【新唐人2011年4月1日讯】德国著名汉学家史蒂曼(Tilman Spengler),原本计划这周随同德国外长访华,但是他的签证申请遭到中共当局拒绝。史蒂曼说,中共外交部认为他“不是中国人民的朋友”。中国民主党创办人之一秦永敏接受本台记者采访表示,史蒂曼恰恰是中国人民的朋友,但不是中共的朋友,因此中共才拒发签证给他。

3月30号德国汉学家史蒂曼(Tilman Spengler)向《德新社》表示,他申请中国入境签证遭到拒绝。

他还表示,中共外交部称他“不是中国人民的朋友”,因此拒发签证。

史蒂曼是德国著名汉学家,发表过大量有关中国研究的著作。去年9月,史蒂曼作为颁奖人,向正在狱中服刑的中国作家刘晓波颁发了赫尔曼——凯斯滕奖(Hermann-Kesten-Medaille)。

中国民主党创办人之一秦永敏:“这位德国学者不是中国人的朋友,我想事情恐怕恰恰相反。这种作法(拒发签证)显然是毫无道理的!也和它(中共)对内的为所欲为、不讲道理联系在一起。”

德国外长韦斯特韦勒这次访华,主要是为了出席一项展览活动的开幕式。据《德国之声》报导,4月1号在中国国家博物馆开幕的“启蒙的艺术”展,是德国至今在中国举办的最大艺术活动,展期长达一年。

不过,史蒂曼向《德国之声》表示:“多数中国(共)政府领导人还急需接受启蒙时代的自由、平等、博爱,思想。”

而秦永敏表示,德国经历过残酷的纳粹统治,德国人民和世界人民都深受其害。现在中国有可能走上同样的道路。如果中国不进行民主化,它将给世界带来不幸。

秦永敏:“在专制之下,只要掌握绝对权力,他就可以为所欲为!体制内大部分人,理性来说,都是希望中国稳步的走向民主时代的。在将来,如果发生政权法西斯化、纳粹化的问题,我们还是要强调,这种可能性是很小的,我们说‘不能排除’。从目前来说,只要中国还专制下去,那么这种结果就不能排除!”

秦永敏呼吁德国外长应向北京施压,要求中共释放上周刚被判10年监禁的异议人士刘贤斌,以及刘晓波和其他政治犯。

而德国社民党外交事务专家罗尔夫•米岑尼希(Rolf Mützenich)认为,外长的陪同人员遭到中方邀请"出局",给韦斯特韦勒这次访华之行蒙上阴影,也是不好的兆头。

《德国之声》30号在报导中说,米岑尼希表示,汉学家史蒂曼遭中国(共)拒签也说明,仅仅公开批评中国的人权状况或表达对人权维权人士的支持,还远远不足以在政治上和北京抗衡。

罗尔夫•米岑尼希 这位社民党政治家接受《德新社》采访时,建议外长韦斯特韦勒访华时,要与中方谈起史蒂曼遭拒签一事。

“Not a Friend to Chinese People”

Renowned German Sinologist Tilman Spengler
had planned to accompany German Foreign Minister
on his visit to China, but was denied a visa.
Spengler says that the communist party does not
consider him “a friend of Chinese People”.
According to Qin Yongmin,
co-founder of the China Democracy Party,
Spengler is a friend of the Chinese people,
not a friend of the Chinese Communist Party.

Tilman Spengler said to DPA that the visa was denied
because the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs
consider him “not a friend to Chinese people”.

Renowned Sinologist and widely published author,
Spengler awarded the imprisoned Chinese author
Liu Xiaobo the Hermann-Kesten-Medaille last Sept.

“The German scholar is not a friend
of Chinese people? I think it’s just the opposite.
Such action (denying visa)is totally unreasonable.
It has to do with the fact
that the CCP mistreats its people at will."

German Foreign Minister Westerwelle is due to open
the yearlong German “Art of the Enlightenment"
exhibition at the National Museum of China.
“Most Chinese government officials need the
enlightenment of freedom, equality,
and fraternity”, said Spengler to Deutsche Welle.

According to Qin Yongmin, Germany, as well as
the entire world, suffered from the Nazi regime.
China could possible bring the same misfortune
to the world if it does not become democratized.

“A tyranny can reign at will with absolute power.
Most people within the system are in favor of the
democratization of China. Although very minor,
if the autocracy remains, we “cannot rule out"
a possibility of fascistization of the CCP regime"

Qin calls for more diplomatic pressure on Beijing
from the German Foreign Minister,
to request immediate release of jailed dissidents
such as Liu Xianbin and Liu Xiaobo.

German SPD foreign relations expert Rolf Mützenich
believes the ban on a delegation member will have
negative effects on Westerwelle’s visit to China.

Mützenich said to Deutche Welle that the entry ban
on Spengler showed that criticizing China
for its human rights record is far from enough.

Mützenich suggested during a DPA interview
that Westerwelle needs to bring up
the entry ban of Spengler
during his conversation with Chinese leaders.
