家园 HR 554 台湾冲突吓阻法对在美人士影响巨大

HR 554 Taiwan Conflict Deterrence Act of 2023

只要你是华人,不管有没有绿卡,国籍,都在被清算的范围

通宝推:心有戚戚,
家园 这个事情好像有点可怕

上次隐约看到个新闻,说美国不保证华人的财产安全

如果出现中美冲突,在美华人的财产可能如同欧美的俄罗斯的富豪被没收?

没仔细跟进新闻。

如果确实属实的话,这个事情还蛮可怕的...

中美距离真的走到冲突并不遥远,那岂不是海华的财产安全都无法保障了?

家园 真要这样,对中国是好事
家园 俺早就说过

美国如今这套对外制裁建立的法律基础就是朝战时对中朝制裁,搬来制裁中国轻车熟路。。。

通宝推:心有戚戚,
家园 难道这不是帮助中国反腐吗?

我在美国国会的网站上看了一下起草件,这是链接。

https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/554/text

说说我的总结。美国认为中国大陆严重威胁台湾的时候,美国财政部长要提交报告,说明哪些中国高官以及其直系亲属在美国的金融机构有账户,并可以要求对这些账户采取行动。报告还应该以中英文在网上公布。

这些高官指所以常委,其他政治局委员,那些和台湾事务有关的中央委员。直系亲属指配偶,父母,子女,兄弟姐妹,孙辈,配偶的父母和兄弟姐妹,子女以及兄弟姐妹的配偶。

说说我的个人看法。首先这和普通美国华人无关,只会影响中国高官和直系亲属。其次这对中国反腐应该有帮助,因为钱留美国有可能不安全。

通宝推:热河蛮子,
家园 这就是一些海外朋友竭力支持中美友好的根源吧,问题是这事 -- 有补充

美国的原因是最大的,他们能够改变美国人的思路么?他们又做不到,但是,中国也需要发展啊,需要资源和技术!!

美国则是中国发展严重的阻碍者啊!!

那么,应该怎么样呢?某些朋友能改变美国人的傲慢和偏见吗?

作者 对本帖的 补充(1)
家园 让我们回想一下苏联历史,在苏联的成长过程中,苏联外交方面 -- 补充帖

是很重视的,主要体现为通过一些妥协,避免世界反苏同盟的形成,左右横跳,挑拨离间,一些让步和牺牲,结果就是苏联在成长过程中没有得到全世界西方国家一致的反对和残酷对待,这是苏联的成功。

那么我们国家的外交部门,有没有做到类似的工作呢,有没有做成呢?

近些年,通过经济的发展,我们似乎是很成功,然而一个中美脱钩击溃了这种梦想,有一些先生一味的只要求中国让步,这合适么?

这是做事的方式吗?我认为,这不是。

家园 那些是拿美国国籍的美国人吧。真是以善意解释美帝每项举措。

至于被美帝制裁的“官方人员”的范围,那还不是美帝一张嘴随便定。

来看看美帝不久之前认定的制裁人士和制裁对象:1. 厦门市“黄元雄警长,厦门公安局梧村警察局“;2. 噢,还有一所中学”西工大附中“(附加一句,对于西工大附中的制裁是不是有点那个株连十族的意思了,谁叫歼20总师是西工大毕业的呢)。

美籍华人只能指望自己祖宗八代五服之内,最好没有在中国吃财政饭的、没有党员、没有供职国企的人士了。

-------------------------------------------------

据多家外媒报道,美国国务院于本周四宣布了一批制裁国外官方人员的名单,其中包括一名来自中国厦门市的民警。 然而,此事却把中国网民,还有中国各地的警察叔叔们,都给逗坏了。 如下图所示,就在美国时间周四,美国总统特朗普当局的国务卿蓬佩奥,宣布了一份对外国政府现任和前官方人员的制裁名单。 而在这份名单中“压轴”出场的,便是我们今天要说的这位来自中国厦门市的基层民警黄元雄。 首先,虽然蓬佩奥在美国国务院的制裁名单中将黄警官的头衔说得很“大”,按照英文语序直译的话是“黄元雄警长,厦门公安局梧村警察局“,但实际上人家黄警官只是梧村派出所一位很普通的基层民警。

不是玩笑:中国一位派出所民警被美国制裁了

见前补充 4867479
家园 我更关心结果

你举的例子和这里讨论的新法律起草件无关。楼主说的也是在美华人小心了,你的例子是在中国大陆生活的中国警察。前者受美国国内法保护,后者不受美国国内法保护,理论上美国想制裁任何在美国之外的人都不会受到美国国内法的挑战。

中国高官及其直系亲属把钱弄到美国金融机构的难度和风险变大,这难道不是好事?

家园 制裁深入到基层片警和一所中学的法律都不够了,还再进一步加码。

你说和美帝的进一步制裁新法规没关系?嗯,好奇怪的论点。

你觉得被制裁的中国基层民警或所谓的”官方人士“五服以内的某位亲戚,正好已经拿到绿卡或者美国国籍,正好还创业成功了,你觉得他的财富有安全保证吗?

家园 改变美国人的想法

高华得换账号重来。

通宝推:瀚海黄沙,
家园 看完你的解释,我翻了下知乎

不许大陆收复台湾?美国众议院7项涉华法案,要把中国踢出G20

其中的《台湾冲突遏阻法》里明确了不许大陆收复台湾,否则不保证中国财产安全。目前,中国有存在美国的3万多亿美元的外汇储备和压在自己手里的9千亿美元的美国国债,一旦由于民族统一大业而导致发生冲突,那么美国就会立即冻结这3万亿美元外汇,如果武统,不可避免美国甚至会积极公布并冻结一些他们自认为的我国的高层官员及亲属以及富人们在美国的所有财产。

没仔细看详细的内容,但是这个和对俄罗斯的制裁是一脉相承的吧?

好像俄罗斯的外汇储备也被没收,俄罗斯富豪财产也被没收

至于到底是谁是高官亲属,反正这事是美国人认定.....

当然了,你非说你的财产太少,所以一点影响也没有,那挺好,乐观一点生活很美好

这么好的事情,欧美怎么这么好意送给中国人民?我们何德何能,怎么承受得起,还是留给他们自己的了

家园 中国的外交一直就不乍地

当泱泱上国当贯了,都是给别人还贡,算礼部的事?

现在的外交,看起来也是当成礼在搞,完全和欧洲不在一个层次

都无法想象,写出战国策这样书的一方水土,现在养着这样一群外交礼仪官

家园 我给你贴全文吧

麻烦你看看原文再发评论。

匿名 我比较疑惑的是为什么没有包括军队高官在内

军队高官的亲属在美的也不少,是那些议员忘了,还是他们另有深意?我们大家应该写信,强烈要求议员们加上那些军队的高官,和所有曾经是中央和军队高官的人。追溯到1949年,同时鼓动台湾人为了他们自己的安全,让他们这么干。 这样河里的大陆和台湾的人终于找到共同利益点了。

另外给你补充一下阅读的人可能误解一个小点,你说的“在美国的金融机构” 应该包括除了美国的金融机构,也包括外国的金融机构,如在定义section 4中的小节(2) 和(3)。其中对小节(3)的解释如下,

561.308 Foreign financial institution.

The term foreign financial institution means any foreign entity that is engaged in the business of accepting deposits, making, granting, transferring, holding, or brokering loans or credits, or purchasing or selling foreign exchange, securities, commodity futures or options, or procuring purchasers and sellers thereof, as principal or agent. It includes but is not limited to depository institutions, banks, savings banks, money service businesses, trust companies, securities brokers and dealers, commodity futures and options brokers and dealers, forward contract and foreign exchange merchants, securities and commodities exchanges, clearing corporations, investment companies, employee benefit plans, dealers in precious metals, stones, or jewels, and holding companies, affiliates, or subsidiaries of any of the foregoing. The term does not include the international financial institutions identified in 22 U.S.C. 262r(c)(2), the International Fund for Agricultural Development, the North American Development Bank, or any other international financial institution so notified by the Office of Foreign Assets Control.

换一句话来说,也就是在全世界所有的金融机构这些人的金融账户都不可能保安全了。

补充的第2点是,不光中央委员还要加上中共中央委员。

比较遗憾的是那些以前高官及红贵不知道还涉及不涉及。 不过从中我们也可以推断出,中国的高官都有账户在国外。当然了有人会拿某个小警察说事,说自己在国外没有账户,这里面可能有两个可能性,那个小警察可能真的有账户,另外一个就是没有账户,但我更倾向有账户。

这个法案里面也有“例外”, 根据这些“例外”的定义,我们可以知道,如果谁不在名单中,那么他就可能是为美国利益服务的人。民众们就可以报案得50万了。当然他可以说自己在国外没有账户,不过谁信呀?

另外转一下全文,帮助那些人认清现实,以后全心全意的为中国服务。
