中國以紐西蘭跨黨派4名國會議員訪問台灣為由,禁止入境中國、香港和澳門1年,並要求這四名議員道歉。

紐西蘭政府4日表示,已就此事表達關切。澳洲外交部長也聲援紐國議員,表示將向北京關切此事。

紐西蘭外交部長皮特斯(Winston Peters)的發言人4日發表聲明,表示「數十年來」紐西蘭一直有國會議員訪問實行民主治理的台灣,這類訪問與紐國一中政策並無不符,對中國首次因這類訪問實施禁令「感到意外」,已指示外交官員「就這種不同於過往慣例的做法表達關切」,與中國討論,進一步了解情況。

澳洲廣播公司(ABC)報導,澳洲外長黃英賢4日也表示,澳洲政府也會就此事向北京表達關切,「包括我們認為施壓國會議員並不適當」,她說,「我們認同紐西蘭表達的原則,即包括澳洲國會在內,國會議員有權自由決定其旅行」。澳洲反對黨自由黨主席泰勒(Angus Taylor)則批評中國此舉「可恥」,呼籲尋求澳洲政府保證,同樣的事情不會發生在澳洲議員身上。

ABC報導指出,中國是3日深夜透過大使館通知紐西蘭國會這項禁令,並要求國會向相關議員傳達此事。這4名議員為執政聯盟政黨議員麥克魯(Laura McClure)、威爾森(David Wilson)、皮尤(Maureen Pugh,另譯:普格),以及在野黨工黨籍議員韋伯(Duncan Webb)。中國表示,若這4名議員為訪問台灣道歉,旅行禁令就可能縮短或撤銷。

美聯社4日聯絡其中兩名議員,兩人表示拒絕道歉。麥克魯表示,「要求」道歉,「是明顯地侮辱」,她不會道歉;她另外向紐國媒體表示,這是北京的恫嚇技倆,試圖阻止未來其他國會議員訪問台灣。韋伯透過電子郵件表示,紐國珍視民主制度以及與外國夥伴往來的權利,「若這麼做的代價是被中國排除一年,我願意付這個代價」。另外兩名議員尚未回應此事。
