我们一直在密切关注此事[VOA一事]。…… 他们是在做自己的本职工作，而我们继续支持那些正在从事自己本职工作的人。他们讲述正在发生的事，不仅仅是幕后，还有日常生活报道—为在中国的人，也为在别处的人。对于我们视为中国对包括表达和结社自由在内的基本人权的打压，我们表示关切。我们呼吁中国允许所有个人表达他们的观点而无需惧怕报复，同时允许记者能够不受干扰地工作。—希瑟·诺尔特

We’ve been watching that [VOA issue] very carefully. … They were doing their jobs, and we continue to support people who are engaging in doing their jobs, telling the stories about what is going on, not just behind the scenes but reporting on daily life for those in China and elsewhere as well. We are concerned about what we consider to be China’s suppression of fundamental rights, including freedom of expression and freedom of association. And we call on China to allow all individuals to express their views without fear of retribution and for journalists to be able to do their jobs without interference.
