【原文】
Disputes over an incident at sea and the issue of Tibet are threatening to overshadow talks in Washington between top US and Chinese diplomats.
近日南海海域争端及涉藏问题使在华盛顿举办的中美外交会谈蒙上阴影。
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton meets counterpart Yang Jiechi later for talks aimed at paving the way for a presidential meeting next month. But a confrontation at the weekend in the South China Sea has caused both sides to issue complaints. Beijing has also criticised a US statement on the issue of Tibet. The two foreign ministers are to have lunch in the US capital, and Mr Yang will also meet Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner. Correspondents say Mrs Clinton and Mr Yang will try to tone down the disputes and build on the goodwill from Mrs Clinton's recent visit to Beijing.
美国国务卿希拉里克林顿将会见中国外交部长杨洁篪， 为下月的总统会晤铺平道路。但是上周末在中国南海领域发生的一起冲突引起了双方的不满，北京对美国对西藏问题发表的声明表示谴责。双方的外交部长将在美国首都共进午餐，杨洁篪部长还将会晤美国财政大臣Tim Geithner。据通讯记者报道，国务卿克林顿女生和杨部长将基于希拉里最近访问中国时表达的美好愿望之上，共同努力缓和双边争端，
'Criminal record'
Ahead of the talks, China heaped criticism on the US after Sunday's maritime incident. The Pentagon said five Chinese ships harassed an unarmed US navy surveillance vessel in a dangerous manner while it was on routine operations in international waters 75 miles (120km) south of Hainan island.
But China called the US complaint "totally inaccurate" and accused it of breaking international law by operating in its Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ).
‘犯罪记录’
早在会谈之前，中国已针对周日发生的南海事情表示了对美方的谴责。五角大楼称美方一个没有任何装备的海军监控船在国际海域进行常规工作时，遭到了五艘中国五艘舰艇的侵扰。但是中方称美国的抱怨是毫无根据的，并指责其在专属经济海域中运作，违反了国际法律。
The US ship had behaved "like a spy" and China's action was "totally within our rights", state media quoted senior naval officials as saying.
"What was the ship doing? Anyone with eyes can see and our navy can see even more clearly," the China Daily quoted Vice Admiral Jin Mao, former vice-commander of the navy, as saying. "It's like a man with a criminal record wandering just outside the gate of a family home. When the host comes out to find out what he is doing there, the man complains that the host had violated his rights."
The boundaries of China's EEZ remain disputed, while Beijing and Washington differ on which activities are permitted by law within a nation's EEZ. China has a key submarine base on Hainan island.
There are also tensions over Tibet, in the wake of Tuesday's 50th anniversary of the uprising in Lhasa that forced the Dalai Lama into exile. In a statement, the US State Department said it was "deeply concerned" about the human rights situation in Tibet. "We urge China to reconsider its policies in Tibet that have created tensions due to their harmful impact on Tibetan religion, culture, and livelihoods." China said that the US had confused the facts. The US had "wrongly accused China for no reason with its gross interference in Chinese internal affairs," Foreign Ministry spokesman Ma Zhaoxu said in a stateme
“美国舰艇的行为如同一个间谍”，中国的做法是“毫无争议的”，中央媒体如是引用高级海军官员的话。
中国日报也引用了海军中将 Jin Mao，前海军副总指挥的话，“这艘船在干什么呢？所有明眼人都能看清楚，我们的海军看的更清楚了”。“这就像一个有着犯罪记录的人徘徊于一个家庭的大门之外，当主人出门看个究竟时，这个人抱怨主人侵犯了他的权利”。
中国专属经济区的界限一直未被清晰界定，北京和华盛顿也就一个国家专属经济区内允许的活动有着分歧。中国在海南有一个核心的潜水艇基地。
同时西藏局势依然紧张。周二即为西藏达赖喇嘛流亡及拉萨动乱50周年纪念日。在一个声明中，美国表示了对西藏人权问题的严重关注，“我们急切希望中国关注对西藏的政策，这个政策已经造成了对西藏宗教，文化，生活的影响，并制造了紧张的局势”，中国指责美国混淆视听：美国错误的指责了中国并干涉了中国内政，外交部发言人马兆旭在一份声明中这样说。 |
