訊息人士向《中國日報》表示，近日，4名赴美留學及參加學術會議的中國學生遭美方無端滋擾盤查遣返。當事人均為理工科背景，其中2人研究方向與人工智慧相關。
Four Chinese students who recently traveled to the United States to study and participate in academic conferences suffered unwarranted harassment, interrogation and repatriation by the US side, sources said.The four students have scientific and technical backgrounds, and two of them have research interests in artificial intelligence, the sources familiar with the matter told China Daily on the condition of anonymity.
據訊息人士透露，美國海關和邊境保護局（CBP）執法人員將4人帶至“小黑屋”連續盤查十餘小時，多次進行誘導性、脅迫性提問，對其個人和家庭情況、在美學習和實習、是否為中共黨員、是否與中國政府合作等情況進行反覆盤問，尤其關注黨員身份等政治背景和計算機相關科研背景。
US Customs and Border Protection officers took the four Chinese individuals to a darkened room for more than 10 hours of continuous interrogation, repeatedly questioning them with a baiting, coercive approach, the sources said.The officers repeatedly questioned them about their personal and family information, their studies and internships in the US, whether they were members of the Communist Party of China, and whether they had cooperated with the Chinese government.The officers "paid particular attention to political backgrounds such as CPC membership, and to scientific research backgrounds related to computers", one of the sources said.
據悉，美方在缺少事實依據和有效許可的情況下，“強行扣留其中1人電子產品，並將另外3人遣返。美方還拒絕2名當事人與家人朋友聯絡，造成其中1人超30小時與外界失聯”。
The US side also refused to allow two of the individuals to contact their families and friends, causing one of them to be out of contact with the outside world for more than 30 hours, the source said.In addition, without evidence or valid warrants, the US side arbitrarily seized the electronic products of one of the Chinese individuals and repatriated the other three students. How the fourth student's case was resolved was not disclosed.
據不完全統計，美方近年來無端滋擾盤查遣返了30餘名計算機相關專業中國留學生，絕大多數為碩博研究生，其中博士佔比超過一半，多數來自美知名高校，研究方向覆蓋人工智慧、資訊科學、網路安全、電氣、軟體工程、電子資訊工程等領域。
這些學生入境時被美方滋擾盤查時間普遍超過10小時，被扣留時間最長的甚至達5天，最終無一例外被登出簽證並遣返。
The US side in recent years has conducted unwarranted harassment, interrogation and repatriation of more than 30 Chinese students majoring in computer-related fields, according to incomplete statistics.The vast majority of them are master's or doctoral degree candidates, with more than half of them being PhD candidates, and most of them are studying in well-known universities in the US.Their research interests cover fields such as artificial intelligence, information science, network security, electronics, software engineering and electronic information engineering.
訊息人士指出，美方做法遠遠超出正常執法範圍，帶有強烈意識形態偏見，其目的不是維護所謂“國家邊境安全”，而是阻遏中國科技發展，維護美國科技霸權，“充分暴露美方的霸道霸凌以及在科技領域的焦慮感和不自信”。
訊息人士表示，美方行徑只會在美國內外產生嚴重“寒蟬效應”，毒化兩國關係民意環境，阻礙兩國人員往來和人才交流，最終損害美國自身的國際形象和創新活力，“搬起石頭砸自己的腳”。
訊息人士說：“中國學生赴美留學應審慎評估風險，三思而行。”
