The chairmen of two U.S. House of Representatives committees sent a letter to Duke University this week urging the school to end its partnership with Wuhan University in Kunshan, China.
Rep. John Moolenaar of Michigan, the chair of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party, and Rep. Tim Walberg of Michigan, the chair of the House Education and Workforce Committee, wrote that Duke Kunshan University is directly “advancing China’s military and technological ambitions at the expense of the American taxpayer,” according to the letter.

The chairmen argued that Wuhan University is a “direct extension of the Chinese military and intelligence apparatus,” claiming that the school operates under Chinese laws that require students to complete mandatory military training.

They are NOT our friends- we have all been duped, at every level. It’s almost check-mate. Go to Boston and walk doen the street- it’s 80% Chinese National students- attending MIT, Harvard, Tufts, BU…
