Several House Republican lawmakers sent a letter to Secretaries Antony Blinken and Lloyd Austin demanding answers on Chian's new police presence in New York City.
, a human rights NGO based in Spain, overseas Chinese hometown associations have become overwhelmingly co-opted by the Chinese Communist Party’s United Front organizations which seek increasing control over the Chinese diaspora ," the lawmakers wrote.
The Republicans pointed to the United States-China Economic and Security Review Commission’s 2018 report detailing how the"CCP’s United Front Work Department has worked to suppress the free speech rights of U.S. persons protesting against" them. "The U.S. Department of State has similarly found that the CCP’s United Front Work Department funds and supports overseas organizations to spread propaganda and coerces and bullies those who would oppose Beijing’s policies. In 2018, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo imposed visa restrictions on Chinese officials and individuals active in United Front Work Department’s nefarious activities.
"In 2020 the Chinese government’s campaign illegally targeting U.S. residents to force their return to China had become so severe that the FBI issued an internal memorandum on this issue. The Chinese overseas police service station established in New York City earlier this year appears to be a further step of China’s illicit long arm policing on U.S. soil that violates our sovereignty."
China’s police presence in New York City is a symptom of the overall larger issue of the CCP’s growing influence abroad.Fifty-one Republican lawmakers sent a letter to three of President Biden’s Cabinet secretaries warning that national security is threatened by a CCP-linked company's efforts to buy farmland near an Air Force base in North Dakota.
