新闻日期：2024-06-25
美国联邦调查局（FBI）正在调查纽约市市长埃里克·亚当斯使用私人电子邮件账户及其七次访华记录丢失的情况。
据《纽约邮报》报道，市长在最近的七次访问中国期间曾使用了三个私人电子邮件地址处理事务，其中至少一次部分由中共政府资助。这些私人邮箱无法在纽约市政府服务器上追踪到，因此关于他行程细节、会议对象及费用来源等问题仍然模糊不清。
FBI曾在2月份对市长的一位高级助手温尼·格罗（Winnie Greco）进行了搜查。市调查局去年11月曾对该助手展开调查，原因是一位当地新闻网站报道质疑她的政治筹款情况及其是否利用职务之便获得个人利益，包括免费家务服务。
前年，联邦调查员在曼哈顿的一个活动上悄悄没收了市长的手机和iPad。初步调查主要关注亚当斯竞选团队是否与土耳其政府合谋从外国来源非法筹集资金，并通过假想捐赠人进行操作一事，据《纽约时报》报道。
亚当斯此前曾表示，他没有被正式指控有任何不当行为，但他已开始秘密地删除个人电子邮件账户和其他内容。
原文摘要：
Federal authorities are investigating New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ use of a private email addresses and how records from seven trips he made to China have disappeared. The New York Post, citing a source close to the probe, said the prominent NYC mayor used three private email addresses to arrange his dealings in China on his seven trips to the foreign country. At least one of the trips, per the outlet, was partly funded by the Chinese Communist Party. The private email accounts cannot be traced on New York City government servers, meaning that key details, such as who paid for the trips and with whom he met, remain concealed. FBI AGENTS SPOTTED RAIDING HOME OF TOP AIDE TO NYC MAYOR ERIC ADAMS The outlet said Adams and one of his top aides and director of Asian Affairs since he took office in 2022, Winnie Greco, used the nonofficial emails between 2014 and 2021, when he was Brooklyn Borough president. It was immediately unclear what the federal government is seeking to find from Adams’ China trips, the Post said. The FBI declined to comment on the investigation. In a statement to Fox News, a spokesperson for Mayor Adams’ office called for a “more diligent search” by authorities in regard to allegations of missing documentation. FBI PROBES IF NYC MAYOR ERIC ADAMS RECEIVED UPGRADED TURKISH AIRLINES TICKETS IN EXCHANGE FOR FAVORS: REPORT “Our general counsel just sent a letter to the Brooklyn Borough President Office‘s general counsel asking them to correct the record because they misstated there were no available records and to conduct a more diligent search because it obviously wasn’t done here,” they said. The probe into Adam’s China trips came after the FBI raided Greco’s home in the Bronx in February. The city’s Department of Investigation opened an inquiry into Greco last November after a report from The City, a local news site, that raised questions about her political fundraising and whether she used her position in the administration to obtain personal benefits, including free housework from a city employee. WATCH: Last year, federal investigators quietly seized the mayor’s cellphones and an iPad as he was leaving an event in Manhattan. The initial probe is believed to be focused, at least in part, on whether the Adams campaign conspired with the Turkish government to receive illegal campaign contributions from foreign sources, funneled through straw donors, according to a warrant reported on by the New York Times. Adams previously deflected questions about the investigation into his alleged conspiracy with the Turkish government, noting that he had not been officially accused of wrongdoing.
