今天我想告訴各位的是,我們所了解的中國在美國國內所採取的行動,有些是來自我們的情報評估,有些甚至已經公開。不過這一切都確有其事。
I want to tell you today what we know about China's actions here at home - some of which we've gleaned from intelligence assessments, some of which are publicly available. But all of which are fact.
就像我剛才說的,就在我們進行討論之際,北京正在動用整個政府的力量來增加他們的影響力,並且謀取利益。北京以更積極、更具脅迫性的方式來使用這種力量,藉以干涉美國的國內政策和政治。
As I said before, as we speak, Beijing is employing a whole-of-government approach to advance its influence and benefit its interests. It's employing this power in more proactive and coercive ways to interfere in the domestic policies of this country and to interfere in the politics of the United States.
今天,中國共產黨正在獎勵或脅迫美國商界、電影公司、大學、智庫、學者與記者,以及地方、州和聯邦政府官員。
The Chinese Communist Party is rewarding or coercing American businesses, movie studios, universities, think tanks, scholars, journalists, and local, state, and federal officials.
北京想換掉川普!
最惡劣的是,中國啟動了前所未有的行動,企圖影響美國輿論、2018年選舉,還有2020年總統大選前的氛圍。坦白說,川普總統的領導正在發揮效果;而中國希望美國換個總統。
And worst of all, China has initiated an unprecedented effort to influence American public opinion, the 2018 elections, and the environment leading into the 2020 presidential elections. To put it bluntly, President Trump's leadership is working; and China wants a different American President.
