Kevin Garratt夫妇回到加拿大

因间谍罪名自2014年8月起在中国被关押的加拿大公民Kevin Garratt(凯文.加勒特,又译凯文.高)已经获释并回到加拿大。加拿大总理特鲁多一个多星期前刚刚访华归来。

加勒特一案是特鲁多访华日程上的一项重要内容。他回来后,许多人批评他在中国几乎没有提过加勒特。但是今天的消息证明他不负众望。尽管现在个中细节还没有被披露,但是一些评论人士已经把加勒特回国看作特鲁多政府的一项重大成就。加勒特的家人发表了一个声明,感谢所有在过去两年中支持和关心他们的人,并希望有一段不受媒体和公众打扰的适应和过渡时间。

下面是总理办公室声明:

The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, today issued the following statement on Kevin Garratt’s return to Canada:

“We are delighted that Kevin Garratt has returned safely to Canada and is with his family once more.

“We remain deeply impressed by the grace and resilience of the Garratt family, especially Kevin and Julia.

“The Government of Canada has been seized of this case at the highest levels. We want to thank consular officials who work behind the scenes every day in support of Canadians abroad.

“We ask all to respect the family’s wish for privacy at this time.”
