5月24日，針對美國有線電視新聞網（CNN）惡意中傷一事，中國代表團發(fā)表嚴正聲明稱，報道完全不符合事實。

近日，美國CNN造謠中傷正在瑞士達沃斯參加世界經濟論壇的中國代表團，謊稱烏克蘭總統(tǒng)澤連斯基視頻演講結束時全場起立鼓掌，但中國代表團未起立鼓掌并離場。

The Chinese delegation to the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2022 in Davos has refuted a CNN report on Monday that quoted a US politician as saying they walked out of the room without applauding after a speech by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

中方則澄清說中方代表團當時有其他議程，根本就沒有參加那場演講。

參加世界經濟論壇年會的中國代表團嚴正聲明，該報道完全不符合事實。澤連斯基演講時，中國代表團正在與國際能源署署長法提赫·比羅爾（Fatih Birol）會談。

The allegation is "totally untrue", according to the Chinese delegation. When Zelensky made the virtual speech on Monday, the delegation was not at the site but in talks with Fatih Birol, executive director of the International Energy Agency, it said.

“中國代表團”？

當?shù)貢r間5月23日上午，正在瑞士達沃斯舉行的世界經濟論壇，邀請烏克蘭總統(tǒng)澤連斯基通過視頻的方式發(fā)表了一場演說。

這場演講結束后，當時在現(xiàn)場參會的美國政客邁克爾·麥考爾（Michael McCaul），突然找到了美國CNN的新聞主播約翰·伯曼（John Berman），稱他拍到了一張“中國代表團”在澤連斯基講話結束后拒絕鼓掌，還迅速離席的照片。

CNN interviewed United States congressman Michael McCaul, who was attending the forum. McCaul claimed that he took a photograph showing the Chinese delegation seated while other people were giving a standing ovation, and that the members then left the room.

照片上有四位亞洲面孔的嘉賓。這個美國政客稱“他們就坐在我身后”，還指控說，“中國代表團”的做法說明他們“不支持烏克蘭”。

The photo McCaul showed in the program features four men with Asian faces. "They were sitting right behind me," McCaul told CNN. "That picture that was taken by me actually sending a clear message: They do not support Ukraine. They do not support Zelensky."

揭批不實報道

中國代表團稱，照片中的四位嘉賓實際上是越南人。

However, the Chinese delegation said the four in the photo were Vietnamese.

越南媒體的報道也證實了這一點，越南副總理黎明慨（Le Minh Khai）周一帶團參加了當天該活動。

According to Vietnamese media reports, Le Minh Khai, deputy prime minister of Vietnam, led a delegation to the WEF meeting on Monday.

而當時與中國代表團會面的國際能源署署長法提赫·比羅爾也在推特上發(fā)布了貼文，稱“在達沃斯，我與老朋友、中國氣候變化事務特使解振華，就全球能源市場形勢以及如何確保應對氣候變化的措施成為政策制定的核心進行了精彩的討論。”

Birol, the IEA's executive director, said on Twitter on Monday that he had "excellent discussions at Davos with my old Friend Xie Zhenhua, China's special climate envoy on climate change".

CNN的不實報道也引起了不少中國網友的不滿，大家表示CNN已經成為了污蔑抹黑中國的謠言制造機。

The irresponsible allegation of the US politician and CNN has triggered anger among many Chinese netizens, who condemned the claims. "CNN is really fake news," a netizen from Shanghai said. "Aside from defaming China, does CNN have anything else to do?" commented a netizen from Sichuan province.

CD君經核實發(fā)現(xiàn)，目前CNN新聞主播約翰·伯曼及美國政客邁克爾·麥考爾均刪除了其號稱的“中國代表團”照片。
