中國批美允許前台灣總統來訪 (China Criticizes US For Allowing Former Taiwan President To Visit) |
|
|
中國外交部指責美國政府允許台灣前總統李登輝訪問美國。中國官方的新聞社引述外交部發言人(孔泉)的話說，北京強烈反對李登輝此次訪問，並且敦促華盛頓不要向台灣傳遞“錯誤信號”，讓人以為美國支援台灣獨立。 美國國務院說，李登輝先生是一個個人，國務院將李登輝的訪問視為私人來訪。這位台灣前總統自從2000年卸任以來，一直是支援台獨的重要人物。1995年，李登輝訪問母校康奈爾大學之後，中國做出反應，在台灣沿海試射導彈。華盛頓隨後向臺海地區派去兩個航空母艦戰鬥群。 |

China's foreign ministry has criticized the U.S. government for allowing former Taiwan president Lee Teung-hui to tour the United States. China's official news agency quotes a foreign ministry spokesman (Kong Quan) as saying Beijing strongly opposes the visit, and urges Washington to not send "wrong signals" suggesting it supports Taiwan independence. The U.S. State Department says Mr. Lee Teung-hui is a private individual and it views his visit in that regard. The former president has been a prominent support of Taiwan's independence movement since leaving office in 2000. In 1995, China responded to his visit to his alma mater Cornell University by test-firing missiles off the coast of Taiwan. Washington later sent two battle carrier groups to the region. |

歐盟說在土耳其發現致命禽流感病毒 (EU Says Lethal Strain Of Bird Flu Found In Turkey) |
|
|
歐盟委員會說，檢驗結果顯示，在土耳其家禽身上發現的禽流感病毒是致命的H5N1病毒。這種病毒已經在亞洲造成幾十人喪生。歐盟衛生專員馬科斯.奇普裏亞諾星期四說，化驗顯示，土耳其禽流感病毒跟在俄羅斯，蒙古和中國發現的病毒有直接聯繫。 歐盟委員會已經禁止從土耳其進口所有活禽和羽毛。在羅馬尼亞多瑙河三角洲進行的化驗查出一種禽流感後，歐盟星期四又對羅馬尼亞採取了類似措施。 |

The European Commission says test results confirm that the bird flu virus found in Turkish poultry is the deadly H5N1 strain that has killed dozens of people in Asia. E.U. Health Commissioner Markos Kyprianou said Thursday the Turkish test results indicate a direct relationship with viruses found in Russia, Mongolia and China. The European Commission has imposed a ban on all imports of birds and feathers from Turkey. It took similar action Thursday against Romania, after tests detected a strain of bird flu in the Danube delta. |
