Pentagon Funded Chinese Military Research | JQJO

A House Republican report reveals the Pentagon funded hundreds of research projects with Chinese universities and defense-linked institutions, some blacklisted by the U.S., over two years. The report, citing over 1,400 publications and $2.5 billion in grants, alleges this collaboration benefits China's military advancements. Republicans argue this undermines U.S. technological dominance, while the Chinese Embassy calls the report "groundless." The report recommends scaling back collaborations and proposes legislation to prohibit funding for projects involving blacklisted entities. Several universities have already ended joint programs with Chinese schools.
