Pompeo warns Chinese Communist Party’s spy efforts ‘increasing’ in U.S. at state, local levels
(Worthy News) – Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says the Chinese Communist Party is engaged in a years-long effort to infiltrate state and local governments across the U.S. as part of its ongoing espionage effort that continues to intensify.
“CCP campaigns targeting state-level officials, and local interests, have been in full swing for years, and they’re increasing in intensity,” Pompeo said Wednesday in a speech in swing state Wisconsin. “The party and its proxies aim to make Americans receptive to Beijing’s form of authoritarianism.”
Chinese officials appear to be trying to using U.S. consulates to exert pressure on local governments to pass laws and resolutions that bolster the image of Beijing, including ones that touts China’s handling of the coronavirus and that undermine the U.S. relations with Taiwan.
