【禁闻】警告中共 美国政府做出一个罕见动作

【新唐人2014年05月02日讯】美国国务院悬赏500万,捉拿涉嫌向伊朗出口导弹零组件的中国商人李方伟。并没收了李方伟的近700万美元资金。评论人士指出,中共及“太子党”们一直在向伊朗和中东出售军火。美国通缉李方伟是为了对中共提出警告。

美国政府4月29号表示,中国商人李方伟涉嫌违反制裁法规,将对他进行起诉,并悬赏500万美元缉拿。美国还将针对8家中国企业进行制裁,因为这些公司涉嫌为伊朗政府采购导弹部件。

据英国《路透社》报导,李方伟被指控的罪名,包括试图从美国、中国和其他国家购买原料,这些原料可能被伊朗用于制造或输送大规模杀伤性武器。与此同时,李方伟被控成立多家空壳公司,用以掩盖他通过美国金融机构从事商业活动。

美国国务院和财政部、商务部与司法部共同悬赏500万美元,希望有人能提供线索,帮助逮捕李方伟,或者协助证明他犯有罪行。美国商务部也将他列入了国家安全名单之列。此外,美国联邦检察官没收了和李方伟有关的690万美元资金。

李方伟是大连“中创冶金矿产公司”负责人。2009年,纽约曼哈顿地方检察官曾指控李方伟,向伊朗出售违禁材料。美国财政部已禁止他以及他旗下的公司LIMMT,在未获许可或无授权的情况下在美国开展业务。

美国宾州“约克学院”学者周泽浩表示,美国国务院悬赏500万来捉拿一个中国商人,这个情况很罕见。因为双方有国际刑事协定,有外交关系,有法律协议,有过去合作的一些惯例,为什么要通过悬赏的方法?

他认为,美国政府有可能是通过这个动作释放一个外交信息。美国跟伊朗政府目前正在紧锣密鼓的谈判,限制伊朗的核武规模。

美国宾州约克学院学者周泽浩:“欧巴马政府跟伊朗,谈判限制它们的核武规模现在还是很艰难的。那么在这个艰难过程中居然有人来拆台脚,明显牵扯到美国的直接利益和他们的战略部署。当然他们要制止这个现象,当然也希望杀鸡儆猴,劝告别人不要效仿李方伟的做法。 ”

美国中文杂志《中国事务》总编辑伍凡指出,中共很多太子党长期以来在跟伊朗和中东做军火交易。但是他们全部不会承认。这些军火商包括中共元老王震的儿子王军。伍凡表示,只有太子党才能掌握这个特权,中共一定会包庇他们。他相信,李方伟是某位太子党手下的马仔。

那么,为什么美国不拿中共太子党大佬们开刀,却单单针对李方伟呢?伍凡认为,这牵扯到中美高层的利益。

美国中文杂志《中国事务》总编辑 伍凡:“他只能抓下面的,也不涉及到中共根本利益。他们用这种手段来警告你。只能抓小的,抓不了大的。甚至于太子党还到美国来旅游呢,你对他有什么办法呢?这是中美两国之间很深的一些关系,我们就很难了解了。”

伍凡说,美国政府高调悬赏捉拿李方伟,就是在警告中共,停止对伊朗输送军火。

伍凡:“这是一种策略,我警告你,你的计划破了,我知道了,你不能再干了。但是真能抓到他吗?我看不见得。他已经躲到中国,他不出来了。他不到美国来了。但是这件事情可以达到这么一个效果:就是你中共跟伊朗有秘密的武器交易,违反了美国法律,我可以警告其他人,你不能再做了。”

中共外交部发言人秦刚4月30号就此事回应说,“中方坚决反对美援引国内法对中国企业、个人实施单边制裁。”美方“应通过与中方开展防扩散执法合作予以解决。”

去年2月,美国政府决定对违反防止武器扩散机制的公司法人和个人实施制裁。受制裁的中国公司和个人除了李方伟和他的公司外,还有BST技术和贸易公司(BST Tech-nology and Trade Company)、中国精密机械进出口公司(CPMIEC)、LIMMT、保利科技有限公司等。

US Government offers a Five Million Dollar Reward
for Wanted Chinese Businessman.

The US Statement Department, have offered a reward of five
million dollars,

in exchange for the capture of Li Fangwei, a Chinese Businessman
who is suspected of exporting missile parts to Iran.

Nearly seven million dollars related to Li Fangwei
have been confiscated.

The commentators say, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)
and the Princelings,

have always sold arms and ammunition to Iran
and the Middle East.

Li Fangwei is the US´s warning to the CCP.

On April 29, US Government said, Chinese business
man Li Fangwei,

was suspected of violating arms sanctions, and that they will
be lodging a lawsuit against him,

with a reward of US$ five million being placed
on him for his capture.

The US will also sanction eight Chinese enterprises, suspected
of procuring missiles parts to the Iranian Government.

According to a Reuters report, Li Fangwei is charged with
attempting to buy raw materials from the USA.

It is thought, China and other countries are being used to produce
and transport weapons of mass destruction.,

Meanwhile, Li Fangwei was charged with setting up multiple
shell companies for concealing his business activities
via American financial organisations.

Meanwhile, US State Department, Treasury Department,
Commerce Department and Justice Department together,

have offered a five million dollar reward, for evidence
proving his crimes and thus leading to the arrest of Li Fangwei,

US Commerce Department have also placed him
on the black name list of national security.

In addition, US Federal Attorney confiscated US$ 6.9 million,
allegedly connected to Li Fangwei.

Li Fangwei is the boss of LIMMT (Dalian) Metallurgy
& Minerals Co., Ltd.

In 2009, New York´s Manhattan local attorney
charged Li Fangwei with selling sanctioned materials to Iran.

US Treasury Department have banned him and his company
LIMMT,

the carrying out of any business in America without
permission or authorisation.

Zhou Zehao is a scholar of York College of Pennsylvania USA.

He says, US State Department gave a reward of US$ five million
for the arrest of a Chinese businessman,

that such a situation is very unusual.

Because both countries have international penal agreements,

have developed a diplomatic relationship, also the reciprocal
legal agreement for past cooperative cases,

but why have the US taken such a stance
as to offer a reward?

Zhou Zehao says, US Government might release
a diplomatic message by such actions.

US is undertaking negotiations with the Iranian Government
for restraining Iran´s nuclear weapon arsenal.

Zhou Zehao: “The Obama Administration is negotiating terms
with Iran for restraining its nuclear weapons, but it´s difficult.

However, during the process, someone is trying to undermine
those negotiations,

which obviously involves the direct interests of the US
and the strategic arrangements.

Of course, they (US) are attempting to stop this and also
frighten others by punishing Li Fangwei,

as well as advising anyone else considering following Li,
to not follow in his footsteps.”

Affairs Chief Editor of a US-based Chinese magazine,
Mr Wu Fang says,

many princelings of the CCP have made military business with
Iran and the Middle East for a long time now.

But this has all been emphatically denied
by the Chinese Government.

These arms dealers include Wang Jun, the son of Wang Zhen,
a high-rank senior member of the CCP.

Mr Wu Fang confirms, only the princelings of the CCP
can have such a privilege to do the arms deals,
and hence the CCP must shield them.

He believes, Li Fangwei is a follower of a certain member
of the princelings.

So, why doesn´t the US directly punish the certain member
of princelings, and why do they choose Li Fangwei?

Mr Wu Fang believes this involves Sino-American
high-rank interests.

Wu Fang: “The US can only punish the lower level guys
without disturbing the fundamental interests of the CCP.
They just use this action for warning the CCP.

They can only punish the low level guys without touching
upon the high level criminals.

Actually some members of the Princelings visited the US
as tourists, so how can the US deal with them?

This is some in-depth relationship between China
and America and it is hard for us to understand.”

Wu Fang says, the US Government are keen to give a reward
for the capture of Li Fangwei,

and this is to send out a warning message to the CCP,
to stop all arms deals to Iran.

Mr Wu Fang: “This is a strategy. The US is warning CCP,
that your plan has been identified and we are aware of it,
so you cannot do it again.

But can the US really arrest him?

I don´t think so. He has hidden himself in China
without going abroad again.

But such an action can produce such an effect:

China´s secret arms deals with Iran violates US laws,
and they can warn others and the CCP,

that such arms deals will not be tolerated and that they
cannot do deals anymore.”

The CCP Foreign Affairs Ministry spokesman Qin Gang,
responded to the US action taken on April 30:

“Chinese Government resolutely opposes the US
to carry out unilateral sanctions on Chinese Enterprises
and individuals according to American laws”,

and the US “is expected to solve the issue by cooperating with the
Chinese Government by enforcing anti-nuclear proliferations.”

In February of last year, the US Government decided to sanction
company owners and individuals for violating the arms
proliferation mechanism.

In addition to Li Fangwei and his company,

the sanctioned Chinese companies and individuals
include BST Technology and Trade Company,

China Precision Machinery Import -Export Corporation,
LIMMT and Poly Technology Ltd Company etc.

All of these companies are now sanctioned according to US law.
