'Absolutely under no circumstances should Chinese state law enforcement action be tolerated on American soil. This is why the arrests of two men charged with working for China’s Ministry of Public Security are at least somewhat encouraging.' -dcexaminer
There is little that the Biden administration, or any administration, can do to stop the Chinese Communist Party from stifling dissent inside China. It is equally difficult to stop Chinese officials from harassing and detaining dissenters in other countries, but the fact that they continue to do so is considerably more disturbing.
The two men also stand accused of making violent threats against one political enemy of the Chinese Communist Party in the United States and their family and of helping the Chinese Communist Party track down another victim in Los Angeles. The two men were taken into custody at their homes in New York City.
These arrests and indictments are not isolated cases. As documented by the Spanish nonprofit group Safeguard Defenders, China has a history of using both state and nonstate third-party actors to reach beyond its borders to silence dissent about its regime. In one case, a Chinese national with ties to China’s Ministry of Public Security hired a private investigator in New York to beat up a political refugee in the U.S. who had obtained U.S. citizenship and was running for office.
Shortly after taking office, Biden dismantled the Trump administration’s “China Initiative,” which was designed to provide federal prosecutors around the country with intelligence materials they needed to help identify nontraditional trade-secret theft cases, particularly from potential threats at labs, universities, and defense industrial base firms.
