US Visa Crackdown on Chinese Students Sparks Research Concerns
Tap title to read story
The FBI's decades-long investigation into Chinese students and professors suspected of espionage has prompted concerns among experts. A new, more aggressive State Department policy to revoke visas of Chinese students, announced by Secretary Rubio, is feared to harm American research. Former FBI agent Greg Milonovich argues that the number of students posing a national security risk is relatively low compared to those contributing positively to US research. The policy lacks specifics, targeting those with CCP ties or studying in critical fields, raising concerns about its effectiveness and potential negative impact.
