华裔女商人涉间谍活动被拘留 她的丈夫鼓动美国政府对中国施压
【环球时报记者 白云怡】美籍华裔女商人潘婉芬(又名桑迪·吉利斯)因涉嫌从事间谍活动，被中国有关部门提起公诉。这一消息8月30日得到证实后，潘婉芬的丈夫杰夫·吉利斯接受美媒采访，要求美国政府向中国施压。
美国《纽约时报》31日报道称，当地时间8月30日，杰夫·吉利斯在位于休斯敦的家中接受电话采访，他敦促美国总统奥巴马向中国领导人提出此事，称怀疑“如果没有来自美国人民的压力，奥巴马是否会这样做”。该报评论说，华盛顿与北京的关系正经历一系列紧张事件。中国在南海岛屿的建设活动、中国的投资和商业壁垒令美国焦虑，被指责关押异见人士则让中国恼火。潘婉芬案可能加剧这种紧张。
据英国广播公司报道，中国南宁市中级人民法院8月30日向媒体证实，潘婉芬已受到间谍罪名指控。56岁的潘婉芬是在越南出生的美国公民，今年3月来中国时被拘留。《纽约时报》称，她涉嫌招募在美的中国人为美国政府从事针对中国的间谍活动。
美国《新闻周刊》报道称，多名美高级官员已数次和中国政府谈及此案。自潘婉芬被拘捕后，美国在广州领事馆的外交官曾数次探望。美中国国务院也发表声明，要求中国有关部门提供更多案件细节。但杰夫·吉利斯并不满足于此。8月30日，他在接受采访时请求美国官员做出公开正式的声明，表明潘婉芬从来没有从事过间谍活动。“这不仅是桑迪的事，在某种意义上，这个案子针对的是美国政府。”《新闻周刊》称，对此，美国政府采取了不评论情报事务的态度。
“中国是法治国家，中方有关部门会严格依法办案。”英国路透社称，8月30日，中国外交部发言人华春莹这样回应针对此事的提问。 阅读更多内容请参见今日出版的《环球时报》或下载登录新版“环球TIME”客户端。
