What China’s Rocket Expert Defection Means for US? US Diplomats Want Out of China
What would China Rocket–Expert’s Defection Mean for U.S.? U.S. Diplomats Want Out of China

What would you do if the government stood to separate you from your child for COVID-19 quarantine?

This is just one of the fears currently facing U.S. diplomats in China amid the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) severe “zero-COVID” measures.

Meanwhile, according to Reuters, sources familiar with the issue say the U.S. Embassy in China is seeking State Department approval to send its diplomats home.

A British tabloid was the first to report that one of China’s rocket scientists, involved in development of hypersonic missile technology, has just defected to the United States.

What could this mean for U.S.-China competition and tensions over the Taiwan Strait given that the CCP’s highest-level military secrets could now be in U.S. government hands?
