(原标题:美国驻英外交官妻子逆行撞死人后逃回国,美拒撤其外交豁免权)

今年8月,一名美国驻英国外交官的妻子在英国驾车逆行,撞死一名当地青年,之后利用外交豁免权回到美国。英国外交部称,他们已向美方申请取消嫌疑人的外交豁免权,但遭到美方拒绝。10月7日,英国首相鲍里斯·约翰逊敦促美方重新考虑维持豁免权的决定。
据英国广播公司(BBC)当地时间7日的报道,英国首相鲍里斯·约翰逊当日敦促美方重新考虑维持该起车祸嫌疑人安妮·萨库拉斯(Anne Sacoolas)外交豁免权的决定。约翰逊在沃特福德的一家医院接受采访时表示:“我认为所有人都非常同情(车祸死者)哈里·邓恩(Harry Dunn)的家人,并对他们的不幸遭遇表示同情。”约翰逊称,嫌疑人“利用外交豁免程序达到这种目的是不对的”,他说:“我希望安妮·萨库拉斯回到英国,妥善进入本国正在进行的司法程序。这是我们今天向美国驻英大使提出的一个问题,我希望这个问题能很快得到解决。”他补充说:“如果解决不了,我会亲自向白宫提出这个问题。”
据英国《卫报》报道,8月27日,美国驻英国外交官的妻子萨库拉斯在英国北安普敦郡的克劳顿空军基地附近驾车逆行,撞上了骑摩托车的当地青年邓恩,19岁的邓恩送医后不治身亡。北安普敦郡警方称,嫌疑人萨库拉斯此前告诉警方,她近期没有离开英国的计划,但她却于9月初利用外交豁免权和丈夫一起回到美国。
据BBC的报道,根据1961年《维也纳公约》的规定,只要外交官及其家属不是驻在国国民,他们就可以免于在驻在国受到起诉;不过,派遣国也可以取消这一豁免权。
英国外交部已多次向美国驻英大使馆发出请求,要求正式取消该嫌疑人的豁免权,但美国官员拒绝合作。英国外交大臣多米尼克·拉布10月6日对美国《华盛顿邮报》表示:“我已致电美国大使,表达英国对他们所作决定的失望,并敦促大使馆重新考虑这一决定。”
美国大使馆发言人表示:“我们对这起悲惨的交通事故中死者的家属表示最深切的同情和慰问。在此类案件中,任何有关取消我国在海外的外交官及其家属豁免权的问题,都会得到高层的密切关注,并会被认真考虑,因为这类决定会产生全球影响。豁免权很少会被取消。”
据《卫报》报道,死者邓恩的母亲夏洛特·查尔斯(Charlotte Charles)表示,当她得知涉嫌造成邓恩死亡的女子已逃往国外时,她感到“所有的希望都破灭了”。她批评美国大使馆维持嫌疑人的外交豁免权。邓恩的父亲蒂姆·邓恩(Tim Dunn)说,当他在儿子葬礼一周后得知嫌疑人已经离开英国时,他感觉自己“心脏都跳出来了”。

(Original title: The US diplomat in the United Kingdom fled to the country after being killed by the deceased, and the United States refused to withdraw its diplomatic immunity)


In August of this year, the wife of a US diplomat in the United Kingdom drove retrograde in the United Kingdom, killed a local youth, and then returned to the United States with diplomatic immunity. The British Foreign Ministry said that they had applied to the US to cancel the suspect's diplomatic immunity, but the US refused. On October 7, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson urged the US to reconsider the decision to maintain immunity.

According to a report by the BBC on the 7th local time, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson urged the US to reconsider the decision to maintain the diplomatic immunity of the suspect in the car accident, Anne Sacoolas. In an interview at a hospital in Waterford, Johnson said: "I think everyone is very sympathetic (the carwrecked) Harry Dunn's family and sympathizes with their misfortunes," Johnson said. It is wrong for the suspect to "use the diplomatic immunity procedure to achieve this purpose." He said: "I hope that Anne Sakulas will return to the UK and properly enter the ongoing judicial process in the country. This is our ambassador to the United States today. A question raised, I hope this problem can be solved quickly." He added: "If it can't be solved, I will personally ask this question to the White House."

According to the British "Guardian" report, on August 27th, the US diplomat's wife, Sakulas, drove retrograde near the Crawton Air Force Base in Northamptonshire, England, and ran into the local youth Dunn riding a motorcycle. The 19-year-old Dunn died after being sent to the hospital. The Northamptonshire police said the suspect, Sakolas, had previously told the police that she had not left the UK in the near future, but she returned to the United States with her husband in early September using diplomatic immunity.

According to the BBC, according to the provisions of the 1961 Vienna Convention, as long as diplomats and their families are not resident nationals, they are exempt from prosecution in the country of residence; however, the sending country can also cancel this immunity. .

The British Foreign Office has repeatedly issued a request to the US Embassy in the United Kingdom to formally cancel the immunity of the suspect, but US officials refused to cooperate. British Foreign Secretary Dominique Rab said to the Washington Post on October 6th: "I have called the US ambassador to express the disappointment of the British decision and urged the embassy to reconsider the decision."

A spokesperson for the US Embassy said: "We express our deepest sympathy and condolences to the families of the deceased in this tragic traffic accident. In such cases, any issue concerning the removal of immunity from our overseas diplomats and their families , will be closely watched by the top, and will be seriously considered, because such decisions will have a global impact. Immunities will rarely be cancelled."

According to the Guardian, Charlotte Charles, the mother of the deceased, said that when she learned that the woman suspected of causing Dunn’s death had fled abroad, she felt that “all hopes were shattered” . She criticized the US Embassy for maintaining the diplomatic immunity of the suspect. Dunn’s father, Tim Dunn, said that when he learned that the suspect had left the UK a week after his son’s funeral, he felt that he “had jumped out of his heart”.

The wife of the US diplomat returned to the country after driving to death in the UK.

Earlier, the American diplomat’s wife drove a British teenager and used diplomatic immunity to escape punishment, causing the British teenager’s relatives to be very angry. The British Foreign Ministry regretted the US decision on Saturday (5th) and urged the United States to reconsider its decision.
