“嘴上说‘独立’，实际上很‘拜金’！”赵立坚怼的是谁？
外交部发言人赵立坚23日在例行记者会上再次揭露澳大利亚战略政策研究所，他指出，这家所谓“研究所”既不“独立”，也不“研究”，在澳大利亚国内也不得人心。
记者提问：前段时间，《中国日报》发布纪录片，揭露澳大利亚战略政策研究所(ASPI)，其所谓涉华研究都是接受美国政府和军工企业资助的，引发澳方强烈关注。ASPI回应称，自己是独立研究机构，中国是想要堵住外界的批评，请问中方对此有何评论？
赵立坚回应称：
“这家所谓‘研究所’的回应毫无道理，ASPI向来以炮制各种涉华虚假信息为生，在事实面前一次又一次被打脸。”
These remarks of this so-called institute are senseless at all. It makes a living by creating all kinds of disinformation on China, but it got a slap in the face time and again by facts.
“ASPI自称是‘独立研究机构’，今天我就跟大家好好分享一下，它既不‘独立’，也不‘研究’，在澳大利亚国内还不得人心。”
Despite its claim of being an "independent research institute", the fact is, it is neither "independent" nor a "research" body, and it's highly unpopular in Australia.
赵立坚进一步解释称：
说它不“独立”，是因为它长期接受美国国防、外交机构和军火商资助，反华意识形态色彩非常浓厚，热衷于炮制和炒作各种反华谎言。它嘴上说“独立”， 实际上很“拜金”，对其金主忠心耿耿，甘愿沦为美国反华势力的“急先锋”，充当他们的“牵线木偶”。
ASPI is not "independent" as it has long been funded by US defense and diplomatic authorities as well as arms manufacturers, which makes it full of anti-China ideology and keen to make and spread anti-China lies. It claims to be "independent" but is in fact money-driven. It is loyal to its sponsors and willing to be a vanguard and puppet for the US anti-China forces.
澳大利亚《金融评论报》就发表文章揭露这家所谓“研究所”背后的资助方，讽刺它实质上受到美国反华势力等掌控。澳大利亚公民党在其官方刊物上发表文章，揭批其打着“学术和中立”幌子，配合美国和澳大利亚情报机构攻击中国。
The Australian Financial Review also exposed the sponsors behind this "institute" and satirized it for being at the disposal of anti-China forces in the US. Australian Citizens Party also published an article to criticize this institution for cooperating with the US and Australian intelligence communities to attack China under the pretext of academics and neutrality.
说它不“研究”，是因为它炮制的所谓“涉华报告”缺乏事实依据，毫无学术价值，完全违背学术研究应有的职业道德操守。其观点和线索要么来自美国反动非政府组织，要么使用无从证实和溯源的所谓“目击证据”，甚至把互动式地图说成是卫星照片。
ASPI is not a "research" body because its reports on China are baseless, lacking academic value, and totally against professional ethics. Its views and clues are either from American NGOs that are against the trend of the times, or "eyewitness evidence" that cannot be proved or traced back. They even identified interactive maps as satellite photos.
以所谓“新疆文化灭绝”报告为例，该报告荒谬地将新疆拥有外墙的建筑都视为“拘留中心”，报告所称的380个所谓“拘留中心”均为民事机构。比如，所谓吐鲁番市“拘留中心”实际上是当地行政机构的办公大楼；所谓喀什市“拘留中心”实际上是当地高中等院校。
Let's take its report on so-called "genocide in Xinjiang" as an example. It ridiculously regards all buildings with exterior walls in Xinjiang as "detention centers", and all the 380 "detention centers" it identified are all civil institutions. For instance, the so-called "detention center" in Tulufan is in fact an administrative building, and the "detention center" in Kashi is a local high school.

说它不得人心，是因为澳大利亚国内诸多有识之士都对它嗤之以鼻。澳大利亚前驻香港总领事梅卓琳批评该所学者汉密尔顿对中国的政治制度缺乏基本认知。
ASPI is highly unpopular because many Australians with vision consider it beneath contempt. Jocelyn Chey, Australia's former consul-general to Hong Kong, criticized ASPI's Clive Hamilton for lacking the basic knowledge of China's political system.
澳大利亚前驻华大使芮捷锐批评它是“澳大利亚‘中国威胁论的总设计师’”。澳大利亚前外长鲍勃·卡尔批评它拥有“片面、亲美的世界观”。
Geoff Raby, former Australian ambassador to China, criticized ASPI as "very much the architect of the China threat theory in Australia". Bob Carr, former Australian foreign minister, accused ASPI of pumping out a "one-sided, pro-American view of the world".
这家所谓“研究所”颠倒黑白、撒谎成性，早已在中国恶名昭著， 并成为国际社会的笑柄。相信大家今后会擦亮眼睛，明辨是非，共同抵制这个“谣言制造机”和“谣言贩卖机”。
This institute has long been notorious in China and a laughing stock for the world due to its behaviors of distorting facts and habitual lying. I believe you will all be sharp-eyed and jointly reject this "rumor-maker" and "rumor-spreader".
10月10日，中国日报在全球各大社交媒体平台发布了纪录片《起底外媒：虚伪的西方宣传系统》，直戳西方宣传的痛处。纪录片揭露了澳洲智库ASPI联合政客媒体炮制虚假涉华“报告”，炒作中国话题。该片一出便引发澳大利亚媒体的强烈反响。
点击观看中国日报纪录片《起底外媒：虚伪的西方宣传系统》：
他们的报道试图反驳纪录片中揭批的内幕，但却拿不出任何证据，只是苍白无力地重复，“ASPI作为一个智库，其工作是真正独立的。” （ASPI's work as a think tank is genuinely independent.）
