【新唐人2015年2月16日讯】美国驻华大使馆日前在网页上发出公告，邀请网友在2月13号加入微博聊天，与美国助理国务卿互动。不过，美国助理国务卿的微博帐号很快遭到封杀，只得转向推特继续进行。专家认为，这次美国大使馆的行动，是吸取了美国智库的建议，为适应没有中共的中国，尝试与被中共边缘化了的中国民众建立联系。
美国驻华大使馆的网页公告上写道：2月13日晚上8点，我们邀请你加入微博聊天，与负责民主、人权和劳工事务的美国助理国务卿汤姆•马林诺夫斯基，探讨美国为遵守联合国人权条约所做出的努力。
不过，马林诺夫斯基的微博很快遭到封杀。点击“对话美国官员”的微博讨论页面链接，会自动转到其它页面。
马林诺夫斯基将“对话”转到推特继续进行，还用“酷刑应该毫无例外的在任何地方、任何时候都被禁止”为话题，贴上了自己在反酷刑委员会议上的发言。
来自旧金山的中国民主大学校长唐柏桥认为，美国助理国务卿马林诺夫斯基主动对话中文网友，与美国智库的建议有关。
在这之前，美国智库亚洲专家奥斯林（Michael Auslin），在美国《华尔街日报》撰文，说“中国共产党已濒临黄昏”的说法，在美国智库的中国问题专家中已经形成共识，提醒华府关注中国的局势变化，提早思考没有中共的中国政策。
其中有专家认为，西方外交人员、学者，非政府组织与中国民众相隔太远，建议美国政府与“被边缘化”的中国人建立关系、与中国的各种声音更广泛地交流
中国民主大学校长唐柏桥：“他在新浪和推特这么开是一种尝试，他们试着跟中国的民间进行互动。这个互动的过程中，中共肯定会刁难。”
在推特上有不少网友，包括“五毛”都提交了话题讨论。当有网友问道，美国的公民和民间社会，有甚么机会参与美国政府被联合国普遍定期审议时，马林诺夫斯基答道：在起草报告前，美国政府会听取公民社会组织的建议和批评，美国的公民社会组织还可以在日内瓦人权会议上与其它国家的代表团直接沟通，让他们对美国政府提出问题和建议。
当有人质问9.11后，美国中情局对恐怖嫌疑人施用酷刑，是在违反“美国人权卫士”的操守时，马林诺夫斯基说，美国总统承认了错误，并承担了责任，还制定了一些法律和程序，来加强保障机制，采取了具体步骤来杜绝酷刑。
还有大学生问，在美国的民主选举中，官员选举资金来自大财团，一旦当选会为财团服务，这样是不是会使美国的人权蒙上灰色？马林诺夫斯基说，美国法律确保公众知道候选人的财源，候选人如果接受某些捐款，就会伤害他们赢得选举的机会。
公民记者孙林告诉《新唐人》，他13号当晚，上新浪微博找马林诺夫斯基对话，不过微博已经消失。他希望以后能有多一些这样的机会。
公民记者孙林：“美国国务卿对话有帮助，互动会很大。我们希望不仅仅是几天，或者是规定一段时间的对话，希望美国政府加以多多的关注，不仅仅是中国。”
“中国共产党已濒临黄昏”一文中写到，美国几十年的官方互动几乎没有改变中共领导人。北京仍然支持朝鲜、伊朗之类的激进角色，而且打压自己的人民，“这个政权的本质已表露无疑”。“现在是展示西方对中国的发展有道义责任的时候了。”
唐柏桥：“如果欧美国家对中国的人权不管，中国人感觉就会很失望、很绝望，大家不遵守人权的话，这些人到美国来也会不守规矩，直接影响到美国的正常发展。”
公民记者孙林的帐号，在新浪、网易和凤凰等微博上全部遭到封杀。孙林说，在大陆坚持争取民主自由的民众，甚至遭到中共剥脱生存权，他们的生活极其困难，希望国际媒体也能够关注这些有骨气的中国人。

A Conversation with the U.S. Assistant Secretary:
New Policy Towards China?
The U.S. Embassy in Beijing invited Mainlanders to join a
Weibo chat on Feb. 13 with the U.S. Assistant Secretary.
However, the Weibo account of the Assistant Secretary
was quickly blocked so the effort was continued on Twitter.
Analysts believe the Embassy's gesture is a reaction to
recent suggestions of American think tanks:
It is to build links to marginalized Chinese in preparation
for a post-Communist China.
The invitation on the U.S. Embassy in Beijing stated:
"On February 13 at 8pm (Beijing time), we invite you to join
U.S. Assistant Secretary for Democracy, Human Rights, and
Labor Tom Malinowski for a Weibo chat on American efforts
to comply with United Nations human rights treaties."
However, Malinowski's Weibo account was quickly blocked.
A click on the web link give an error message and
redirected the link to another website.
Malinowski transferred the conversation to Twitter.
Under the subject, "No Torture, Anywhere, Anytime," he
posted his thoughts delivered on the anti-torture committee.
Democracy Academy of China president Tang Baiqiao
believes Malinowski's active interaction with Chinese
netizens is in reaction to the recent suggestion from
the U.S. think tank.
Michael Auslin, a scholar at the American Enterprise Institute
in Washington, D.C., recently write an article in the Wall
Street Journal, "The Twilight of China's Communist Party,"
(CCP) regarding the consensus of China experts.
Washington should start paying attention to the restless
China and prepare for a post-Communist China.
Auslin described how Western diplomats, scholars and NGOs
are too isolated from the Chinese people.
He feels that the only way forward is greater engagement
with China's various voices.
Tang Baiqiao, "This intention to interact with the Chinese
through Sina and Twitter is bound to be disrupted by the
Chinese Communist Party."
On Twitter, many Chinese, including the 50-Cent party,
submitted the topics of discussion.
E.g. what are the chances for the U.S. and society to get
involved in the UN periodic review of the U.S. government?
Malinowski replied, Before drafting the report, the U.S.
government will listen to the recommendations and
criticism from the citizens, society and organizations.
In Geneva's human rights conference, Americans can also
communicate directly to delegations of other countries,
who can also propose questions and suggestions
to the U.S. government.
There is also question about the CIA using torture against
suspects of 9-11 and violating the title of "rights defender".
Malinowski stated that the U.S. president acknowledged
the mistakes, accepted the responsibility, and developed
a number of laws and procedures to strengthen the
protection mechanism.
They took concrete steps to put an end to torture.
A college student wondered if accepting election funds from
corporates will affect human rights once the candidate wins
the election and serves the corporate.
Malinowski responded that U.S. law ensures that financial
resources of candidates are made available to the public.
The candidates' chances of winning the election will be
jeopardized if certain donations are accepted.
Citizen journalist Sun Lin told NTD that he tried to get on
Weibo on Feb. 13th, but the Weibo link had disappeared.
He hopes more similar opportunities will be made available
in the future.
Sun Lin, "It is very helpful to have a conversation
with the Secretary of State.
We hope this kind of great interaction will not just last
for a few days or over a certain set of time.
Hope the U.S. government will pay more attention to the
Chinese, not just the country."
In the article, "The Twilight of China's Communist Party",
it mentioned that decades of official interaction have done
little if anything to change the behavior of China's leaders.
Beijing's support for aggressive actors like North Korea and
Iran, and its repression of its own people, make it clear about
the nature of the regime.
"It's time to show that the West has a moral stake
in China's development."
Tang Baiqiao, "It will disappoint the Chinese if Europe
and the U.S. pay no attention to the human rights in China.
Without human rights, those lawless Chinese will also affect
the normal development of the United States."
Citizen journalist Sun Lin's accounts on Sina, Netease
and Phoenix were all blocked.
Sun Lin indicates that in the fight for democracy and freedom,
Chinese are even faced with deprivation of their lives.
Their extreme hardship is in desperate need of the attention
of the international media.
