Lawrence Specialist in Asian Affairs August 1, 2013 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R41108 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress U.S.-China Relations: An Overview of Policy Issues Summary The United States relationship with China touches on an exceptionally broad range of issues, from security, trade, and broader economic issues, to the environment and human rights. Congress faces important questions about what sort of relationship the United States should have with China and how the United States should respond to China’s “rise.” After more than 30 years of fast-paced economic growth, China’s economy is now the second-largest in the world after that of the United States. With economic success, China has developed significant global strategic clout. It is also engaged in an ambitious military modernization drive, including development of extended-range power projection capabilities. At home, it continues to suppress all perceived challenges to the Communist Party’s monopoly on power. In previous eras, the rise of new powers has often produced conflict. China’s new leader Xi Jinping has pressed hard for a U.S. commitment to a “new model of major country relationship” with the United States that seeks to avoid such an outcome. The Obama Administration has repeatedly assured Beijing that the United States “welcomes a strong, prosperous and successful China that plays a greater role in world affairs,” and that the United States does not seek to prevent China’s re-emergence as a great power.

  • Daniel Southerland
    China's Changing Strategic Concerns: The Impact on Human Rights in Xinjiang Wednesday, November 16, from 10:00 - 11:30 PM Room 480 of the Ford House Office Building Statement of Daniel Southerland "The [RFA] programs speak to my heart… The world must hear what is going on here."—RFA Uyghur service listener. The Chinese government has for many years tightly controlled information reaching the Uyghur people in Xinjiang. But the government’s controls over the media and freedom of expression in Xinjiang appear to have grown even stricter since the 9/11 attacks in the United States in 2001. The Chinese government currently controls the media in Xinjiang even more tightly than in other parts of China, except perhaps for Tibet. As a result, broadcasting to the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR) has constituted one of the most challenging tasks undertaken by Radio Free Asia (RFA). RFA broadcasts in 12 languages and dialects to listeners in Asia who primarily have access only to state-run media. RFA’s purpose is to deliver accurate news, information, and commentary, and to provide a forum for a variety of voices from within Asian countries that do not tolerate free media. RFA, by broadcasting objective news, seeks to promote freedom of opinion and expression, including the freedom to seek, receive, and impart information and ideas through any medium regardless of frontiers. This principle is enshrined in Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. When it comes to Uyghur language broadcasting, RFA is the only broadcaster that attempts to provide accurate and objective news.

Here on the NRD-535D, on the high 300-ft inverted-L it is +50dB/s9, the low 50-ft doublet (with the high skywave angle) it is +60dB/s9. Telephone reports started up coast to coast by 0413 UTC. Hardly difficult. (Tom Sundstrom-NJ, 29 Dec) 6090 kHz - 0410 UTC, rock mx, Dr. Scott talking about the new txer, saying at one point it was "just shy of" 75 kw, at another 80 kw, "100% modulation." Invited calls to their usual phone numbers, and ran down the calls they had been getting from listeners, mostly west coasters, TX, KS, etc, all of whom seemed to be having better reception than I was. Good strength, though I would have expected better; a hum on the signal; and a bad fqy in my area, with splatter in both directions from DW powerhouses on 6085 and 6100 until DW closes at 0600. Better, and dominant, thereafter, but nowhere near as good as the //WWCR-5935 signal.

  • President Trump Criticizes VOA Coverage of China's COVID-19
    INSIGHTi President Trump Criticizes VOA Coverage of China’s COVID-19 Response April 28, 2020 The President’s Criticism of VOA’s Coverage of China On April 10, 2020, the White House included in its online “1600 Daily” summary of key news and events a statement entitled “Voice of America Spends Your Money to Speak for Authoritarian Regimes.” The statement referred to a Voice of America (VOA) story and two posts that, it asserted, “amplified Beijing’s propaganda” about Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). The statement criticized VOA for running an Associated Press article on its website on April 7, 2020, which referred to Wuhan’s lockdown as a “model” for other countries battling the coronavirus. The White House statement provided an image of part of a March 31, 2020, VOA Facebook post, which included a graphic showing that the U.S. COVID- 19 death toll had surpassed China’s then-official tally. On April 7, 2020, a VOA tweet showed a video of a light show put on by the Wuhan government to mark the end of the city’s lockdown. VOA operates under the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM), an independent, federal entity whose mission is to” provide unbiased news and information in countries where the press is restricted.” Voice of America released a response to the White House statement, asserting that “VOA has thoroughly debunked” Chinese government and state-run disinformation and propaganda related to the pandemic, and that “we are free to show all sides of an issue and are actually mandated to do so by law,” unlike Chinese media.

  • US International Broadcasting Struggles to Find Its Way—With the Help of Al Jazeera.Ó Transnational Broadcasting Studies 15, Fall 2005
    Public Policy and Funding the News A Project of the USC Annenberg Center on Communication Leadership & Policy www.fundingthenews.org 734 West Adams Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90089‐7725 213‐821‐0060 www.communicationleadership.org U.S. INTERNATIONAL BROADCASTING: AN UNTAPPED RESOURCE FOR ETHNIC AND DOMESTIC NEWS ORGANIZATIONS Shawn Powers The news media landscape is rapidly changing, and advances in technologies and the ways in which information is received and spread call for adjustments in policies. Just as advances in science and health require governments to adjust their laws accordingly, so do advances in information technology. The advent of the Internet, a global infrastructure able to disseminate information from anywhere in the world to anywhere, usually within just a few seconds, calls into question the value of laws written in the first half of the 20th century with the intent to limit the direction of news and information broadcast by particular organizations. The American approach to public service broadcasting, which is severely underfunded when compared to the rest of the world, is also legally separated from U.S. international broadcasting, a firewall that inhibits effective collaboration between either. Indeed, the problem is worse, as U.S.-funded international broadcasting is prohibited from disseminating its journalistic features within the U.S., a ban that prevents effective use of its significant journalistic resources by both public and private news networks in the United States. including a large sector of ethnic media that could surely benefit from the 60 languages that American international broadcasting reports in. For comparison, the BBC, the world’s most respected news institution, houses all of its international and domestic news services in the same newsroom, therefore maximizing the benefits of a diverse and large staff while limiting costly redundancies.
