【新唐人2012年1月14日訊】中共總理溫家寶將在1月14號到19號期間,訪問沙特阿拉伯、阿拉伯聯合酋長國和卡塔爾,並出席在阿聯酋阿布扎比舉行的第五屆「世界未來能源峰會」。外界認為溫家寶這次前往阿拉伯三國,是為了減少從伊朗進口石油,因此轉向其他國家。
溫家寶將是20年來首次訪問沙特的中共領導人,而他對阿聯酋和卡塔爾的訪問則是雙方建交後,中共總理的首次到訪。
中國是伊朗石油原油的最大出口市場。去年,中國11%的石油進口來自伊朗。
政論家伍凡向《新唐人》表示,聯合國為了遏制伊朗核試驗,已經通過四次決議制裁伊朗,但都沒有得到中國的支持。最近美國國會決定凡是和伊朗有經濟來往的國家,美國將斷絕和這些國家的中央銀行往來,並且得到了全世界其他國家的支持, 但中國還是沒有動靜。
幾天前,美國派財政部長蓋特納前往北京,試圖勸說中國支持美國制裁伊朗的石油工業,以防止威脅人類的核擴散,但中方沒有點頭,不過實際上,中國和伊朗的石油交易已經減少一半。伍凡認為,溫家寶前往阿拉伯三國是為了石油。
伍凡:「實際上是到那裏去談判:從那裏增加進口石油到中國來。如果中國不答應美國,還從伊朗進口石油,那麼美國要執行他的法律,中國所有出口到美國來,或者從美國進口到中國去的貨品,全部終止往來,美國銀行統統拒絕, 那就牽扯利益更大了,現在美國是中國很大的出口市場。」
中東地區的「茉莉花革命」一直是中共害怕又敏感的問題。阿拉伯世界爆發了「茉莉花革命」後,中國一些活動人士也在網上發起了所謂的「茉莉花散步行動」,但遭到當局的嚴厲鎮壓。當局還通過「強迫失蹤」、軟禁、判刑以及其他手段,防止中國的活動人士和民眾效仿「阿拉伯之春」。
中共外交部副部長翟雋在溫家寶這次出訪的媒體吹風會上說,除了加強同這些國家的關係外,溫家寶將討論阿拉伯世界最近發生的變化。
旅美政治評論家,前「哥倫比亞大學」訪問學者陳破空認為,中共政府對「阿拉伯之春」存在矛盾心理。一方面害怕這種民主變革蔓延到中國,另一方面,中國與這些發生變革的國家又有著千絲萬縷的聯繫,中共不希望因為這些國家的變革或是意識形態的變化,而使自己的利益受到損害,因此力圖跟這些國家的新政權建立良好關係。
伍凡認為,中共會採取打皮球的辦法,來應付這些國家的新政府。
伍凡:「中共很容易對付﹙阿拉伯國家政府﹚,它就會講不干涉主義,我不干涉外國內政,你們怎麼做我不管,你們也不要干涉我的內政,你們不要把茉莉花革命推到我這裡來啦,但是你光講沒用,中國老百姓歡迎啊,中國老百姓支持,要求把穆巴拉克處死。」
中共外交部副部長翟雋已經意識到,國際形勢正在經歷冷戰以來最為深刻複雜的變化,他說,特別是西亞、北非地區的局勢,正在成為繼「蘇東劇變」、「9•11」事件、阿富汗和伊拉克戰爭,以及國際金融危機之後的又一重要歷史事件。

Oil Focus for Wen Jiabao Visit to Three Arab Countries
Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Premier Wen Jiabao will
officially visit Saudi Arabia, UAE and Qatar on Jan.14 to 19.
Wen will also attend the 5th “World Future Energy Summit"
in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
Commentators say Wen’s visit to three Arab countries is to
seek oil supplies, reducing oil imports from Iran.
Wen Jiabao will be the first CCP leader to visit Saudi Arabia
in over 20 years.
Wen will be the first CCP Premier to visit to the UAE since
they established diplomatic relations with the Beijing regime.
China is Iran’s largest crude oil export market.
In 2011, 11% of China’s oil imports came from Iran.
Political commentator Wu Fan says the UN has ratified four
sanctions against Iran, all opposed by the CCP regime.
The U.S. Congress recently decided to cut ties with central
banks of all nations that have economic ties to Iran.
The decision has gained worldwide support, yet China is in
utter silence.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner recently visited
Beijing, trying to persuade the CCP regime on the issue.
It was hoped the CCP would support the U.S. sanctions
against Iran’s oil industry, to prevent nuclear proliferation.
However, the Beijing regime has yet to agree.
In reality, the oil transactions between China and Iran have
been reduced by half.
Wu Fan believes that Wen Jiabao’s visit to three Arab
nations is with an eye toward oil supplies.
Wu Fan: “He actually goes there for negotiating oil imports.
If China doesn’t agree with the U.S. yet still imports oil from
Iran, the U.S. would stop all trade with China.
That would involve more interest, as now the U.S. is China’s
largest export market."
The Jasmine Revolution in the Middle East has long been
a sensitive issue of the CCP regime.
Chinese activists launched alleged “Jasmine walking actions"
via the internet, but authorities severely repressed this action.
The regime used various means like forced disappearance,
house arrest and sentencing to prevent these activists.
CCP vice Foreign Minister Zhai Jun spoke of
this issue with reporters.
In addition to strengthening relations with three nations,
Wen Jiabao will discuss recent upheavals in the Arab world.
US-based political commentator, Chen Pokong reviewed
the CCP regime’s ambivalence on the “Arab Spring".
The regime fears the democratic change will reach China,
while China remained an intricate link with these nations.
The CCP hopes these nations’ revolutions or ideological
changes will not harm its own interests,
The CCP is trying to establish good connections with these
new governments.
Wu Fan says the CCP will play ball to cope with
these new Arab governments.
Wu Fan: “It’s very easy for the CCP to deal with them.
It’ll claim its non-interference doctrine. ‘I won’t interfere in
the domestic affairs of other countries.
In return, nor will you interfere with mine.’
The CCP hopes the Jasmine Revolution won’t spread in
China
Chinese people welcome it, expecting an execution of
Mubarak."
CCP’s Vice Foreign Minister Zhai Jun has realized the
international situation is facing big changes.
The most profound and complex changes since the
Cold War.
Zhai said that the situation in West Asia and North Africa
have become another important historical event.
This follows the drastic changes in Eastern Europe and
the former Soviet Union.
As well as the 9/11 Events, the Iraq and Afghan wars
and the international financial crisis.
