Chinese Communist Party Threat Is ‘Massive': FBI and MI5 Directors

MI5 Director General Ken McCallum warned that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is the greatest threat to the international order. He said the communist regime is organizing the whole of China's state apparatus to systematically undermine the West and steal advanced technologies. He called the CCP's aggression a "massive shared challenge" for the UK and the United States.

CCP Is the 'Biggest Long-Term Threat'

• FBI Director Christopher Wray said the greatest challenge to the international order is the CCP, which seeks to undermine the United States, its allies, and its partners
• "We consistently see that it's the Chinese government that poses the biggest long-term threat to our economic and national security, and by 'our,' I mean both of our nations, along with our allies in Europe and elsewhere."

CCP Targets US Economy, Politics

• Wray noted that CCP espionage targeted all sectors of the economy, from aviation to agriculture, and that the CCP was engaged in aggressive activities against U.S. infrastructure.
• He encouraged business leaders to coordinate with the FBI and MI5 to protect themselves and to better prepare for the reality of increased CCP attempts to steal from, extort, and pressure businesses in the United States and the UK.
  1. We consistently see that it's the Chinese government that poses the biggest long-term threat to our economic and national security, and by our, I mean both of our nations, along with our allies in Europe and elsewhere, he said.
  2. The most game-changing challenge we face comes from the Chinese Communist Party, MI5 Director General Ken McCallum said.
  3. We've seen China looking for ways to insulate their economy against potential sanctions, trying to cushion themselves from harm if they do anything to draw the ire of the international behavior, Wray said.
  4. The widespread Western assumption that growing prosperity within China and increasing connectivity with the West would automatically lead to greater political freedom has, I'm afraid, been shown to be plain wrong, he said.
  5. Leaders from the UK and U.S. domestic intelligence agencies delivered a rare joint statement on July 6, warning that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is the greatest threat to the international order.
  6. The Chinese government is trying to shape the world by interfering in our politics 
  7. and those of our allies, he said.
