U.S. politicians want to hear from MP Michael Chong on threats from China
- Conservative MP Michael Chong has been invited to testify before the United States Congress on foreign interference by China. Chong, who was allegedly targeted by the Chinese government, will appear in-person before the Congressional-Executive Commission on China on Sept. 12.
- The commission, which monitors human rights and the rule of law in China, was established in 2000 and consists of Senators, House Representatives, and senior administrators. Chong's case gained attention after reports of Chinese government interference in retaliation for his condemnation of Beijing's treatment of Uyghur Muslims.
- Allegations of foreign interference by China in Canada's democracy have been mounting, leading to calls for a full public inquiry. Other MPs have also claimed to be targeted, and a former RCMP officer has been charged with foreign interference-related offenses, indicating Beijing's alleged meddling in Canadian affairs.
