影／全文翻译／投书国际奥会「告状」 姚元潮：我担心的是终止会籍
中国大陆以台湾推动东京奥运正名公投为由，主导取消台中明年东亚青年运动会主办权。东奥正名公投发起人纪政指控，投书国际奥会的「告密者」就是前中华奥会国际组组长姚元潮。姚原本25日与媒体约好受访说明，到约定时间时却神隐不愿出面。

东奥正名公投发起人纪政25日上午在立院记者会上以「告密者」形容姚元潮，批评他「难道生活在台湾这块土地，所拥有的自由民主，没有这样的共识吗？我是非常生气。」纪政强调，姚元潮还是海军上校出身，对姚的举动非常生气。
其实，姚元潮本人早7月13日就已经在脸书上证实，自己就是投书国际奥会的人，理由是身为一名曾服务中华奥会、从事国际事务的退休员工，深知我国在国际体坛上的难处，但运动员经常在国际赛事上擅自使用非中华台北的名称，已经几度遭国际奥会警告，甚至有可能被「终止会籍」，才想借此提醒国人不可不慎。
姚元潮同时公布写给国际奥会的原稿。姚元潮在信中提到，此次「正名公投」显然是政治干预体育的行为，有增加两岸危机风险的可能，认为纪政女士和「那些人」打算要做的事是「打着『正名』幌子的『台独』。」

国台办发言人安峰山25日在例行记者会中表示，东亚奥协取消2019年东亚青年运动会，原因就在台湾一些政治势力和台独份子在纵容下推动「正名公投」，公然挑战奥运模式，使此次运动会面临极大政治风险和干扰。
安峰山说，「我们向来反对以政治干预体育」，对「正名公投」的挑性多次表达反对立场。他指出，民进党当局为了「一己之私」，罔顾台湾运动员、体育界和广大台湾同胞利益，执意放任「正名公投」挑衅，才会使台中主办权得而复失。
现年88岁姚元潮，退休至今已经超过20年。根据NOWnews报导，中华奥会有关人士认为，20年间奥会国际组长已经换过多人，姚元潮并不是以中华奥会人员身份提出检举，并没有直接影响东亚青运的主办，他也没有这样的权力，说他「告密」有些过当。
事件爆发后，姚元潮的脸书遭大量网友留言灌爆，姚也疑似暂时关闭个人脸书。姚元潮原本与媒体约好25日下午在住处接受访问，但约定时间到时却不愿出面，由姚妻代为婉拒媒体访问。
亲爱的主席先生，我的名字是姚元潮，是一位退休上校，今年88岁。从国防部退休后，我进入中华台北奥会服务了14年，负责国际事务。我是奥林匹克活动的的忠实拥护者。
对于可能违反国际奥会政策和国家参与奥运的事件，我们知道你们没办法监控，不得不依靠他人大胆地说出来。根据《联合报》2018年4月4日的报导，中华民国中央选举委员会审议批准了由奥运田径明星纪政女士提出的「东京奥运台湾正名」公投。她的理由是，「国家奥会的名称必须要能反映领土范围」。
引用《奥林匹克宪章》第30条第2款「国家奥会必须反映领土范围」规定，纪政女士却忽略了后面还有一句「且须经国际奥会执行委员会核准」。更明确得说，纪政女士忽略第30条第1款，也就是「国家」指的是受国际社会（联合国）承认的独立国家。
根据上述条款，首先，台湾一词并没有反映出其国家领土范围，因为除了台湾之外，还有澎湖群岛、金门和马祖。（台湾是中华民国的一部份）。其次，由于没有受到国际社会（联合国）承认，台湾并不是国家。
众所周知，台湾参与奥运会的名称已经是一项长期议题，国际奥会竭尽全力解决问题，直到1981年3月23日国际奥会与中华台北奥会在洛桑签署协议。双方就我国奥会名称、使用旗帜取得共识。
1. 国家奥会名称应为「中华台北奥林匹克委员会」，并经国际奥会核定在案。
2. 中华奥会提送会旗与会徽如附样式，并经国际奥会核定在案。
此次公投显然是政治干预体育运动，可能再度引起奥林匹克大家庭成员的名称问题；由于纪政女士和那些人打算做的事是以台湾正名为幌子的台独，更有可能导致两岸危机升高。
前主席萨玛兰奇先生总是强调，要防止事态变得更糟，就要在事情发生前阻止，这有助于防止中国奥会和中华台北奥会间产生大量纠纷。就这次公投而言，我建议国际奥会透过中华台北奥会向台湾当局发出警告，避免未来会发生的各种问题。
诚挚地姚元潮上校
April 12, 2018H.E. Thomas BachPresident, IOC
Dear Mr. President,My name is Yao Yuan-chao, a retired colonel of army, now 88 years old. After my retirement from Ministry of National Defence, I was employed by and had worked for the Chinese Taipei Olympic Committee for 14 years in charge of international affairs. I am a stalwart loyal to the Olympic Movement.
We know that you are unable to monitor and have to rely on people to speak up the event that may violate the IOC’s policy and affect a nation’s participation in the Olympic Games.
According to news report released on April 4, 2018 by the United Daily News, the Central Election Committee has examined and approved the referendum on “the right name of Taiwan for the Tokyo Olympic Games” proposed by Ms. Chi Cheng, an Olympic track star. The reason given by her is: “ The name of the National Olympic Committee must reflect the territorial extent”
Citing from the 2nd clause of article 30 of the Olympic Charter ”The name of an NOC must reflect the territorial extent”, Ms. Chi failed to cite the words that follow the part she has cited—and shall be subject to the approval of the IOC Executive Board. Particularly, she failed to cite the 1st clause of article 30 of the Olympic Charter that in the Olympic Charter, the expression “country” means an independent state recognized by the international community (United Nations)
Based on what is said in the above clauses, first, Taiwan doesn’t reflect the territorial extent of its country, since other than Taiwan, there are the Penghu Islands, Kinmen and Matsu. (Taiwan is a part of the Republic of China) Second, since not recognized by the International Community (United Nations), Taiwan is not a country.
As known to all, the name of the team from Taiwan participating in the Olympic Games had been a long time issue until the IOC went to great lengths to solve it by inking an Agreement signed between the International Olympic Committee and Chinese Taipei Olympic Committee in Lausanne on March 23, 1981. Both parties reached the following agreement on the name, and flag of our NOC:
1. The name of the NOC shall be CHINESE TAIPEI OLYMPIC COMMITTEE and is as such hereby approved by the IOC2.The CTOC submits its flag and emblem as per attached specimens, which are hereby approved by the IOC .
Because of this referendum, which apparently acts as politics interfering with sports, it may cause the name’s problem again among the members of Olympic family and what’s more, increase cross-strait crisis, since what Ms. Chi Cheng and those people intend to do is to launch Taiwan independence under the guise of changing the name to Taiwan.Former President Mr. Samaranch always stressed preventing something from getting worse by stopping it soon before it happens, that had helped prevent a lot of disputes from taking place between Chinese Olympic Committee and Chinese Taipei Olympic Committee. May I suggest that in respect of this referendum, the IOC issue a warning toward Taiwan authority through Chinese Taipei Olympic Committee so as to prevent any problems in the future from happening .
Sincerely,Col. Yao Yuan-chao
