Spielberg shows Beijing red card over Darfur

Spielberg vender Beijing ryggen over Darfur

In a gesture sure to rattle the Chinese Government , Steven Spielberg pulled out of the Beijing Olympics to protest against China 's backing for Sudan 's policy in Darfur .

Med et træk der sikkert vil ryste den kinesiske regering trak Steven Spielberg sig ud af De Olympiske Lege i Beijing for at protestere mod Kinas opbakning af den sudanesiske regerings politik i Darfur .

His withdrawal comes in the wake of fighting flaring up again in Darfur and is set to embarrass China , which has sought to halt the negative fallout from having close ties to the Sudanese government .

Hans beslutning følger i kølvandet på en opblussen af kampene i Darfur , og vil ydmyge Kina , der forsøger at udglatte de negative konsekvenser af deres tætte forbindelser til den sudanesiske regering .

China , which has extensive investments in the Sudanese oil industry , maintains close links with the Government , which includes one minister charged with crimes against humanity by the International Criminal Court in The Hague .

Kina , der har store investeringer i den sudanesiske olieindustri , har stadig tætte forbindelser med regeringen hvor en minister er anklaget for forbrydelser mod menneskeheden ved den Internationale Menneskerettighedsdomstol i Haag .

Although emphasizing that Khartoum bears the bulk of the responsibility for these ongoing atrocities , Spielberg maintains that the international community , and particularly China , should do more to end the suffering .

Selvom Spielberg understreger at det er den sudanesiske regering der bærer hovedansvaret for overgrebene , fastholder han at det internationale samfund , og især Kina , burde gøre mere for at sætte en stopper for overgrebene .
