Chinese Communist Party plans to kidnap artists in Taiwan Free Asian cartoonist is in danger U.S. re-issues powers, significantly increases tariffs on seven products The Chinese Communist Party jumps to the corner and becomes a corner A KPDR in Guangdong is spreading The Chinese Communist Party has not been recognized for two months Citizen reporter Zhang Zhan should be released from prison Unknown whereabouts Hi everyone, welcome to International News Eye, I'm Meilin. The agent who is nicknamed Eric, a former agent of the CCP's Ministry of Public Security and Political Security, has rarely disclosed the details of the return of the CCP's right-wing overseas artists in an Australian broadcast program. What's different is that the kidnapping location was set in Taiwan, and the cartoonist of the Free Asia radio station almost fell into the trap. Eric said that before he surrendered to Australia in early 2023, he had been an agent of the CCP's Ministry of Public Security for 15 years. He usually infiltrates and tracks foreign artists. Eric has infiltrated the activities of the Tibetan exile government, and has carried out activities against Chinese artists who have been exiled abroad. This includes the cartoonist who worked in the Free Asia radio station after being exiled to the United States in 2017, his real name is Wang Liming. Eric said that the CCP will instruct agents to plan to lure those foreign artists to Southeast Asia, because the CCP's overseas public security officers are more free to act there, and can bring foreign artists back to China by illegal means. He revealed that Wang Liming's invitation to an interview in Southeast Asia in 2017 was actually a trap. If Wang Liming went to the interview, he would be forced to return to China. The CCP's Ministry of Public Security had planned to use a Chinese-funded group located in Cambodia, the Prince Group, to carry out this scam. Wang Liming himself also recalled the experience of being invited by the Prince Group to the Free Asia radio station. In November 2016, Wang Liming, who lives in Japan, suddenly received a message on Twitter. A person named Xiao Yang said that he was a fan of Wang Liming, and established a long-term contact with him via email. In fact, this Xiao Yang is Eric. Xiao Yang said that he was the planning director of the Prince Real Estate Group, and often sought help from the company's product design. After a long time, Xiao Yang simply recommended Wang Liming to be the so-called global creative director of the Prince Group, and even urged Wang to apply to the Prince Group's human resources manager. The manager immediately used the official email of the Prince Group to invite Wang Liming to an interview in Cambodia. Wang Liming later refused this interview due to security reasons, but the CCP still did not give up. The Prince Group also asked him to provide a chance for an interview in Taiwan's office. Because the location is in Taiwan, Wang Liming was excited and wanted to go for an interview. As a result, he was unable to go because of his wife's strong opposition. Wang Liming, who has been kept in the dark, now knows the truth. I was very shocked and very scared. If I really went to the interview, I probably wouldn't be here now. I don't even know if I'm still here. Australia ABC also specially arranged for Eric and Wang Liming to talk on the show. Eric told Wang Liming that they were very confident that they could trick him into going to Taiwan. Because the Prince Group, which is closely related to the CCP, is deeply involved in this matter, they are also very confident to kidnap him from Taiwan to the Pacific Ocean. Some experts told Free Asia Radio that Southeast Asia has always been a key development area for the CCP to kidnap overseas, but the CCP plans to kidnap a dissident in Taiwan, but there is no precedent. Liying's Hong Kong activist Zheng Wenjie said, the CCP's secret police unit still dares to carry out such cross-border law enforcement in Taiwan, which is unbearable. Through these small cases, tell us never to underestimate the CCP's ambition to expand foreign power. This is a very, very important signal. On May 14, U.S. President Biden announced a large increase in tariffs on a series of Chinese imported products, including Chinese electric cars and computer business, etc. And the CCP, even if it is a jump, it is also invincible. Some analysts believe that the CCP's reliance on low-priced commodity sales has led to an uptick in trade debts, which eventually caused trouble for itself. The White House said in a statement that Biden will maintain the current President Trump's tariffs, and increase the intensity of other tariffs. It also emphasized that the CCP's unfair approach to U.S. economic security has posed an unacceptable risk. The White House pointed out that the U.S. government's new measure has affected Chinese imported goods worth $1.8 billion. This involves China's seven major products, including steel and aluminum, semiconductors, batteries, solar panels, key minerals, low-voltage weight machines, and medical products. The U.S. is determined to make a heavy hand is also the CCP's own. According to the data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the U.S. imported $4.27 billion worth of goods from China last year, but only exported goods worth $1.48 billion to China. What's more serious is that the trade gap between the U.S. and China has lasted for decades, and has become a more and more sensitive topic in Washington. Despite the protests from the CCP, Biden still raised the tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles from 25% to 100% according to Article 301 of the 1974 Trade Act, thus reaching a total tariff of 102.5%. In recent years, tariffs on some steel and aluminum products have risen from 0% to 7.5% to 25%. Tariffs on lithium-ion battery batteries have risen from 7.5% to 25%. Tariffs on solar panels will rise from 25% to 50%. Tariffs on injectors and needles will rise from 0% to 50%. Tariffs on weight machines will also rise from 0% to 25%. In addition, many U.S. legislators are calling for a significant increase in tariffs on Chinese cars. President of the Bank of China in March, Sirod Blank, made it clear that he hopes that the Biden administration can completely ban electric vehicles imported from China, so as not to pose a risk to American personal data. On the one hand, the U.S. government is very vigilant about the threat posed by the Chinese Communist Party's cheap sales, and on the other hand, the U.S. government is also angry that the Chinese Communist Party continues to produce cheap goods in large quantities. U.S. Secretary of State for Economic Affairs, Ralph Brennan, said that although China's production capacity is excessive, but unfair practices have led to low-priced export goods flooding the global market. But the CCP continues to invest at the cost of sacrificing the interests of other countries to promote its own economic growth. On May 13, U.S. Secretary of State for Economic Affairs, Elon Musk, told the media, We do think that the competitive environment should be fair, but the CCP is engaged in unfair behavior such as We pay special attention to clean energy, semiconductor, and the CCP's policy to encourage investment and lead to excessive production capacity, and hope that the CCP will not make a major response. Although Elon said it was more polite, the CCP faces a series of heavy punches and of course there is no avoidance. On May 13, the China Automobile Industry Association claimed that the U.S. was exaggerating its production capacity and so-called national security concerns as a typical trade protectionism. On May 14, the CCP's Ministry of Commerce said that China's action against the U.S. was a resolute opposition and a serious confrontation, and the CCTV and People's Daily also expressed dissatisfaction. Although the CCP is unhappy, the U.S. has been issuing warnings that the CCP has used electric vehicles, lithium-ion batteries, and solar panels as a representative of the three new models that are being sold cheaply all over the world, which has affected the global economy. U.S. economist David Huang pointed out that the U.S. is very worried that this huge trade surplus will lead to an increase in their domestic economy's foreign deposit and unemployment rate. Especially this year, China's export products have created great pressure on the U.S. Taiwan economist Wu Jialong also told Dajiyuan that the CCP must first prove whether it is competing fairly. Therefore, the CCP must first so that Chinese companies, including local acquisitions and bank loans, can get these subsidies from the government. Wu Jialong said that exporting cheap products will lead to trade friction and then protectionism will lead to trade wars. In the end, they will face these difficulties. It seems that this time the CCP was hit by the U.S. exactly 7 inches. Although China has been hiding the true situation of the COVID-19 epidemic, the more contagious TPDR has spread again and again. The CCP can't help but admit that the virus was found in Guangdong two months ago. Many people also said that the CCP concealed the epidemic, which caused many people to die even after they tested positive for COVID-19. At present, the variant of COVID-19, TPDR, is spreading all over the world. In fact, TPDR is the third generation of Omicron-GN.1 variant. It is highly contagious. It was first detected in India At the beginning of May this year, the World Health Organization classified TPDR as a variant of Omicron-GN.1. Since January this year, TPDR has accounted for 0.16% of the world's It has grown to about 14% Some countries' TPDR is relatively popular. The ratio is actually between 10% and 30%. Moreover, the virus has also spread to China. The CCP can't help but tell the truth. On May 14, the Chinese National Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention reported that the first TPDR variant was detected And as of May 12, a total of 25 TPDR variants But the CCP's lack of confidence is well known. Because the CCP has been covering up the truth of the epidemic, it can be speculated that there may be more Chinese patients who have actually been infected with TPDR. Now even the CCP officials who lie have admitted that TPDR is popular in mainland China. This really worries the Chinese people. And many people have responded that the epidemic has not disappeared. During the May 1 holiday this year, local people in China revealed that the local hospital's door was full of people. And the number of people who died has increased significantly. Some clinics have begun to work overtime. Beijing citizen Mr. Wang said, the hospital beds are tight. They all sleep in the aisle. Now the respiratory system and cerebrospinal disease are a little more. Anhui citizen Mr. Lu said, this epidemic is very severe all over the country. Mainland hospitals are always full of people. A lot of people are dying. It has something to do with the vaccine. On May 13, Mr. Yan, a villager of Fangzheng County, revealed to Dajiyuan that the local epidemic is very serious. Many people around him have symptoms of repeated fever and cold, which is very similar to COVID-19. And often some people die of unknown reasons. They are also people who are in good health. Mr. Yan said, forty or fifty people have died around him. Now often someone has died. More than 20 people died this year. They are all middle-aged people in their fifties. We are in a mountainous area. Most of them are buried in the ground. There are cremations everywhere. In the face of the severe epidemic, the CCP has been hiding the truth from the people. Deceive the people on the matter of life and death. Fujian citizen Mr. Lin said, there are more people who have brain cancer and heart cancer. They are almost all 30 to 40-year-old adults. Now the authorities are hiding and not reporting. We can't just say that Mr. Yang of Guizhou said, from last winter to now, there are many people around him who have been infected repeatedly, but the hospital does not give a test. He tested positive at home, but the doctor still treats it as a cold. This has caused many elderly people to die. He said, there are a lot of people who died at the age of 60 or 70. Chinese citizen reporter Zhang Zhan, who went to Wuhan to report the truth of the COVID-19 epidemic, was sentenced to four years in prison May 13 is the day he passed away. The outside world is worried that after he was released from prison, he may continue to be detained or monitored by the authorities. At present, Zhang Zhan's whereabouts are unknown. On May 12, according to the Mingsheng Observation, Zhang Zhan will pass away on May 13. Many netizens are concerned whether he can be released on time and pass away. On May 8, Shanghai resident Shen Yanqiu sent a message to Zhang Zhan's mother, asking to accompany her to pick up Zhang Zhan from prison. However, on the second day, Shen Yanqiu was warned by the Shanghai National Security Police not to go to the women's prison. The following two days, Shen Yanqiu was invited to drink tea by the police twice. There were also people waiting for him downstairs. Shen Yanqiu also claimed that he should be taken away directly. Shen Yanqiu also told BBC that Zhang Zhan has been released from prison, but he can't get in touch with Zhang Zhan's family. He can't confirm whether Zhang Zhan has returned home. Zhang Zhan's attention group initiated a group of netizens in the UK who claimed that they couldn't get in touch with Zhang Zhan. According to Free Asia Radio, Zhang Zhan's mother may have been pressured by the CCP. When she was talking on the phone about Zhang Zhan's release, she didn't show any joy, but rather panicked. She also said that she may not be able to pick up her daughter and asked reporters not to call her recently. Wang Wenbin, a spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China, told Reuters that he had no relevant information on the matter. Bai Aolan, a spokesman for the International Journalism Organization for Taipei, said to American News. According to past observation, after being released from prison by the CCP's journalists or freedom fighters, most people were still confiscated passports by the authorities, restricted from leaving the country, or detained by the designated detention center. Even those who were detained again He said that the International Journalism Organization was worried that after Zhang Zhan was released, he would also be treated the same way. He may continue to be monitored and will not be able to get true freedom. According to BBC, Zhang Zhan was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in June 2023. He was also arrested for supporting the Hong Kong anti-espionage movement. He was also protesting in prison. Zhang Zhan once said, facing such a thing, I can't back down because this country can't back down. OK, that's all for today. Thank you for watching. See you tomorrow.
