「双语」例行记者会/RegularPressConference（2021-3-31）(22)

你的第二个问题，是指BBC驻华记者沙磊离开了中国大陆的问题，是吗?
As to your second question, are you referring to BBC correspondent John Sudworth who has left China"s mainland?
记者：是的。
Journalist: That"s correct.
华春莹：我也是这两天在沙磊常驻记者证要延期的时候，才得知沙磊已经不辞而别。他离境前没有以任何方式告知中方相关部门，他因何原因离境我们不知道。你刚才提到他的报道。刚才记者会开始前我看到BBC发了一条推特，称赞沙磊，说他“报道了一些中方不愿意让世界知道的真相”。因此，我想多说几句。
Hua Chunying: John Sudworth has left without saying goodbye. I wasn"t aware of this development until his press card was due to expire a few days ago. He did not inform Chinese authorities in any way of the reason for his departure. You mentioned his reports. Right before this press conference, I saw a tweet update from BBC, praising John Sudworth"s work which it says "has exposed truths the Chinese authorities did not want the world to know." I have a few more words to say in response to that.
首先，我要再次声明，我们刚刚得知沙磊不辞而别。他是非正常离任，因为他没有履行一个外国驻华记者离任前应该履行的手续。
First of all, I will repeat that we have just learned that John Sudworth left without saying goodbye. It is definitely not normal for a foreign resident correspondent to leave without going through due procedures.
