【新唐人2012年6月29日讯】“六四事件”牵连了许多人。1989年六四事件发生后的第四天,联合国教科文组织在巴黎开会。这是一个例行会议,有教科文组织的既定议题要讨论。但“六四事件”震动中外,会议上大家都撇开了既定议题,讨论起中国的“六四”。有些代表甚至还出示了从媒体上下载的屠杀学生的血腥照片。会议中唯一的中国人,也就是当时中共派驻联合国教科文组织(UNESCO)立法组织执行局的执行委员(Member of the Executive Board)赵复三,他被要求介绍北京的情况。赵复三当时说了三句掷地有声的话后,从此走上了逃亡的不归路。赵复三的朋友姚琮在接受本台记者采访时,揭开了赵复三这段逃亡的真实故事,下面就一起来听听
对天安门屠杀流血事件,中共当局要求对外宣传统一口径,叫做“天安门事件,一个人没死”。
赵复三对天安门发生的事情是清楚的,而且还有第一手资料。但是在联合国大会上,面对168个国家代表的询问,他应该如何发言﹖
赵复三之友 姚琮:“因为有良心的问题,他是虔诚的基督教徒,所以在这个问题上他没有执行中央的指令,而是说了三句话,这三句话其实都是很简单的真理,第一句话就是他对于六四事件发生枪杀学生这个事件感到震惊,谁都感到震惊,这个事就是一句很简单的话﹔第二句话就是说他对死难的人表示哀悼、致敬,这也是一个很普通、当然是要对他们哀悼致敬了﹔第三句话就是说从此中国的历史要从新写过,这句话很厉害的。”
姚琮是前中国社会科学院美国研究所研究员,美国威斯康辛大学教授,和美国亨利.鲁斯基金会的学者。他表示,赵复三把他逃亡的事情—-前前后后,一五一十都告诉他。而姚琮对赵复三在联合国的发言表示赞赏,对他敢于抗邪,主张正义的大勇大智,表示敬佩。
但是,会后,赵复三在返回中国代表团住所时,看到安全部的人在门口叉着腰,斜眼看着他,赵复三吓得身上起了一层鸡皮疙瘩。过后不久,他走上了逃亡的不归之路。
曾经与赵复三共事25年的老部属、中国旅美学者严家祺表示,赵复三当时在中国很有地位,就因为他说了实话,从此再没有回到中国。
严家祺:“(赵复三)他留在国外非常困难,他先在法国,因为法国有些人还怀疑他,说他是不是那种国家安全部有关系,有这样的怀疑 。他就后来到了比利时,后来是生活来源都成问题,没有生活来源,他因为年纪很大了,他有一度曾经想到要到庙里面去当和尚了。后来到了美国,到了美国科罗拉多大学教了很多年,”
今年86岁的赵复三曾对姚琮说,他的一生可以分成两段,前一段60年,是为构筑“理想”而生活的60年,而后一段20多年,他说: 现实教育了我,是我自已拆毁我原来理想的20多年。勤勤恳恳一辈子,到头来,向谁交待这笔糊涂账。
姚琮:“前面这段时间也都是要支持共产党呀,做共产党的驯服工具呀,后来也是被事实教育了,逐渐的清醒过来了,共产主义是一个幽灵,这个马列主义当时是忽悠—-大忽悠,”
姚琮说,现在很多人都明白了。苏联觉醒的早,解散了苏联的共产党。共产党这一套是从苏联学来的,也应该走同样的路。
姚琮:“中国共产党内部也有很多明智的人,因为这个共产党的名字已经臭了,世界上都臭了,各个地方都臭了,有人就想把共产党的名字改一改,改个其 他党的名字,利用共产党目前他有8000万党员的这么一个大的基础,作为他的资本,成立一个什么其他的党,这是换汤不换药。必须要改变,整个的从根本上要从新来过才行。”
姚琮认为,赵复三家庭的悲惨遭遇,是中国广大知识界在中共欺骗暴虐统治下的一个缩影,具有普遍牲, 而,赵复三的悲剧,从党的驯服工具,到后来的觉醒,也是一个缩影,而且还具有广泛的普遍性。

The Escape of CCP Official in UN — Zhao Fusan
The 6-4(June 4th) Massacre in 1989 involved many people.
Four days after the incident, UNESCO held a meeting in Paris.
This was planned to be a routine meeting,
but 6-4 had shocked the world.
The agenda was put aside, and 6-4 was discussed instead.
Some delegates accessed graphic photos
from media of the students in the massacre.
The only Chinese delegate in the meeting was Zhao Fusan.
Zhao was a member of the Executive Board
of UNESCO Legislative Organization.
Zhao was asked to introduce the situation
in Beijing, and said three resounding sentences.
He then embarked on an escape, and did not return.
Yao Cong, a friend of Zhao, revealed the true story
of Zhao’s escape in an interview with NTD.
Chinese authorities described the Tiananmen Square
massacre as the ‘Tiananmen Incident, nobody died’.
Zhao Fusan was clear on what happened on 6-4(June 4th),
and he also had first-hand information.
Facing 168 country representatives at the UN General
Assembly, he had a decision to make. What should he say?
Yao Cong, Zhao’s friend described the event: “Because of
conscience, he is a devout Christian, so on this issue,
he did not perform to the central command.
He said three sentences, which were very simple truths.
The first sentence was that he was shocked
by the 6-4 Massacre, killing students.
Everyone was shocked, this is a simple sentence.
The second sentence was that he expressed
condolences and paid honor to the dead.
It is also a very common, of course,
that he should mourn the dead.
The third sentence was to say the history
of China would be rewritten from that point. This was a very powerful sentence."
Yao Cong was a researcher at the Institute of American
Studies of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
Yao is a professor at the University of Wisconsin, USA,
and a scholar at the US Henry Luce Foundation.
Yao said Zhao had told him all
the details about his escape.
Yao Cong appreciated the three sentences
Zhao said at the United Nations.
He expressed his appreciation for Zhao’s resistance to evil,
advocating justice, bravery and wisdom.
After the meeting, Zhao returned
to the Chinese delegation residence.
He saw people from Security Department at the door
with arms on hips, leering at him.
Zhao was scared, and had goose bumps. Soon after,
he went on the run as a fugitive, and did not return.
Yan Jiaqi is a visiting scholar in the US and had worked
as Zhao’s subordinate for 25 years.
Yan said that at the time, Zhao had a very powerful position
in China, but could never return because he told the truth.
Yan Jiaqi: “It was very difficult for him
to stay in a foreign country.
He first went to France, but some questioned
whether he still worked for the Ministry of State Security.
So he later went to Belgium. He even did not
have an income, and he became old.
So he once thought to go to the temple and become a monk.
Later on he came to the United States, and taught
in University of Oklahoma for many years.”
This year, 86-year-old Zhao Fesan told Yao Cong
that his life could be divided into two segments.
During the first 60 years, he had
lived up to his ideals.
Then in the next 20 years, he said, “Reality educated me.
It took 20 years to demolish my ideals.
I had been diligent for a whole life. In the end,
to whom could I confess the whole mess.”
Yao Cong: “In his early life, he supported the Chinese
Communist Party (CCP), and became a docile tool.
Later he was also educated by the facts,
and gradually woke up.
Communism is a ghost.
Marxism-Leninism was fudge, a flicker.”
Yao Cong said many people have been awakened.
The Soviet Union woke earlier, and disintegrated
the Soviet Communist Party.
The Chinese Communist Party has learned
from the Soviet Union, and so will end up the same way.
Yao Cong: “Within the CCP, there are many wise people.
Communism became notorious everywhere in the world.
Some people want to change the name
of the Communist Party.
But they still want to use it’s current
80 million members as its base and capital.
To establish another party, this is a change
in name but not in essence.
It must be changed on a fundamental level.”
Yao Cong said that the tragedy of Zhao’s family
is a representation of the majority of Chinese intellectuals
during the deception and tyrannical rule of the CCP. It is very common.
Zhao’s awakening from being a docile tool of the CCP
after his tragedy is also a representation. This is very common too.
