Information from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency indicate an increase of Chinese nationals found to be crossing the border into the U.S. Many of these individuals are of war fighting age. Representative Mark Green commented on the possibility that they are being sent, by China, similar to how the Russians infiltrated military men into Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">From Newsweek:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>During a press conference, Green noted that there had been &#8220;a massive surge in Chinese nationals&#8221; crossing the southern border, claiming &#8220;many of whom are military-age men, many with known ties to the PLA, ties to the CCP.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Public data from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agency shows 2023 has seen a spike in encounters of Chinese nationals at the southern land border compared to the previous years&#8211;when border crossings were overall lower due to coronavirus pandemic restrictions.<\/p>\n<p>As of April, there had been a total of 9,854 encounters in the fiscal year-to-date, which runs from October to September, rising sharply from February. In 2022, there were 2,176 encounters.<\/p>\n<p>While over 1,500 of these were individuals in a family unit, the vast majority (8,304) were single adults&#8211;though a breakdown of age and what proportion are male is not given. Neither has the government publicly stated if any were believed to have ties to Beijing.<\/p>\n<p>Asked about the credibility of Green&#8217;s claim, Rebecca Grant Ph.D., a national security analyst at IRIS Independent Research, told Newsweek that she personally believed it to be true, referencing the likelihood of some immigrants having ties to the Chinese state given the many Chinese nationals already in the U.S.&#8211;5.4 million in 2021, according to Migration Policy Institute figures.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you&#8217;re a bad guy that wants to infiltrate operatives into the U.S.A., the southern border is a pretty easy way to do it,&#8221; she added.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Newsweek has additional information on this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/china-military-personnel-us-southern-border-national-security-mark-green-1807287\">story<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Among the illegal aliens crossing the southwest border are Chinese nationals.
