In light of recent arrests of two alleged “bioterrorists” in Michigan, an expert has advocated for complete disengagement from diplomatic relations with China, warning that they might be hit with ‘something worse than Covid’, reports the Times of India.
“The only way to stop this is to sever relations with China,” attorney and Chinese Communist Party expert Gordon Chang told Fox News Digital. “And I know people think that’s drastic, but we are being overwhelmed, and we are going to get hit. And we are going to get hit really hard. Not just with Covid, not just with fentanyl, but perhaps with something worse.”
Chang addressed the recent case involving Chinese nationals Yunqing Jian, 33, and her partner Zunyong Liu, 34. The pair allegedly conducted unauthorised research on Fusarium graminearum in American laboratories whilst smuggling it into the country over two years. Jian held a post-doctoral research position at the University of Michigan, with her studies partially supported by funding from the People’s Republic of China.
The Department of Justice describes Fusarium graminearum as a harmful fungus causing “head blight” in wheat, barley, maize and rice crops, resulting in annual global economic losses worth billions. The substance poses risks to human health, potentially causing vomiting, liver damage and reproductive complications in humans and animals.
“This couple should be sent to Guantánamo,” Chang said. “This Chinese government has declared a ‘People’s War’ on us.”
A “People’s War” refers to a military strategy established by former Communist Party Chairman Mao Zedong, who passed away in 1976. His leadership resulted in numerous deaths through famine and political persecution. This strategy involves sustained military and political pressure designed to wear down opponents.
The authorities have charged Jian and Liu with conspiracy, smuggling, false statements and visa fraud.
