US seeks explanation from China on internet freedom

The United States has said it has held several rounds of meetings with China on the allegations of search engine giant Google that Chinese authorities were indulging in email hacking and censorship, a top Obama Administration official said. "Specifically on the Google-China issue, I think it would be fair to say that the US Government has had multiple meetings with Chinese authorities on this matter and will have more in the coming days," the Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs, Kurt Campbell, said yesterday.

US President Barack Obama has identified cyber security as a national priority that underpins global security and economic prosperity and also contributes to free expression, he said. "In addition, the President specifically made Internet freedom a central human rights issue of his trip to China, holding the first-ever online town hall meeting, where he highlighted the principles that freedom of expression, including free and open Internet use, is a universal right that should be available to all people, whether they are in the United States, China, or indeed any other nation," Campbell said. The Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will be giving an address on January 21 on the importance of Internet freedom in the 21st century. "We will have further comment on this matter as the facts become clear," he said.
