美國一名34歲華裔女房仲張婉瑩(Wanying Heather Zhang)因涉嫌替中國政府監視賴清德的兒子賴廷與,4日在洛杉磯國際機場準備搭機前往中國時,被美國聯邦調查局(FBI)成功攔截並逮捕。學者分析,這次美國選擇逮捕涉案人員並提出刑事指控,代表中國對賴清德總統家屬的監控行動已經踩到美國執法與國安的紅線。美國這次大動作逮人並起訴,就是透過司法手段對中國政府發出警告。

對此,東海大學陸研中心副執行長洪浦釗今日受訪表示,對任何國家的情報機關而言,重要政治人物及其家屬都具有情報蒐集價值。對台美國安與特勤單位而言,總統直系親屬的安全維護、風險評估及異常接觸,原本就是安全工作的基本範圍。這次美國選擇逮捕涉案人員並提出刑事指控,代表中國對賴清德總統家屬的監控行動已經踩到美國執法與國安的紅線。

洪浦釗指出,美國這次大動作逮人並起訴,就是透過司法手段對中國政府發出警告。對總統家屬的監控如果沒有及時制止,後續可能發展成什麼樣的安全威脅,很難預估。美國此時採取行動,也是在告訴中國,不能把在中國境內使用的情報與監控手段,任意延伸到其他國家。

洪浦釗分析,台灣與美國目前都處於選舉政治高度敏感的時期,任何涉及總統及其家屬安全的事件,都會迅速升高為國安與政治議題。中國如果透過掌握總統家屬資訊取得政治籌碼,涉及的已經是國家安全,也必須防範中國利用家屬關係對台灣政治領導人形成壓力。

洪浦釗進一步說,總統府將這起事件定義為跨國鎮壓,並呼籲與美國及其他民主國家共同打擊這類非法行為,台灣可以藉此借力使力,把中國對台灣政治人物及其家屬的海外監控,納入民主國家共同面對中國跨國鎮壓的安全議題。中國原本企圖在海外掌握台灣總統家屬的資訊,美國的逮捕與台灣的公開定性,反而讓中國的情報操作攤在國際社會面前。

他建議,中國如果把對台情報工作的觸角伸向海外,台灣就更應該把反制力量延伸到國際合作。這涉及賴總統家人的安全,也要讓中國知道,任何針對台灣政治人物及其家屬的跨境監控與威脅,都會面對台灣與民主國家的共同反制。
