The American crackdown on Chinese intelligence

Note the source: Asia Times.

As I mentioned elsewhere tonight in another thread, the two main negotiation points that China can't give up is their theft of intellectual property, and the control that the State has over business in China. The Asia Times gets this.

After decades of all but ignoring large-scale Chinese intelligence operations targeting the United States, the US government is engaged in a major crackdown on Beijing spying and technology theft.

Almost on a monthly basis, the US Department of Justice announces the arrest of people facing various charges related to the theft of American secrets or similar intelligence activities.


Last month, the FBI arrested Chinese government official Zhongsan Liu on visa fraud charges that masked his role in directing a major Chinese government operation to obtain American technology by recruiting experts at high-technology universities.


Liu headed a Beijing front group in New Jersey called the China Association for International Exchange of Personnel (CAIEP).

According to court papers in the case, Lui since 2017 worked to fraudulently obtain US visas for Chinese officials with the help of at least six universities in Massachusetts, Georgia, New Jersey and elsewhere that were not identified by name.


The Thousand Talents Program

The real purpose of the front was to recruit Americans engaged in high-tech research to support the Chinese government’s program to develop high-technology.


The scheme was part of China’s Thousand Talents Program to recruit Chinese-Americans and others to support research in China. It has been linked to the China Ministry of Science and Technology.
The Pentagon’s latest annual report on the Chinese military stated the Thousand Talents Program is not limited to commercial efforts, but supports the large-scale military buildup by the People’s Liberation Army.


Thousand Talents is used for strategic programs and to fill technical knowledge gaps, the report said. The program “prioritizes recruiting people of Chinese descent or recent Chinese emigrants whose recruitment the Chinese government views as necessary to Chinese scientific and technical modernization, especially with regard to defense technology,” the report said.

The reason for this crackdown? The OrangeMan.

I did notice how the Chinese increased their endeavors when Democrats gain power. I wonder what the explanation from leftists can be when they know their Masters played the incompetent mopes that they are.

Much of their gains came with the 2nd Bill election campaign. They pushed cash into the Bill campaign. A Chinese businessman in the US got sent to jail and the "media" never said a peep about Bill or his campaign- other than they were not to blame. After he was reelected he transferred a lot of high tech to the Chinese. Sounds like the quid pro quo that the "media" claims to see with Trump.
