According to the Consulate General of the People's Republic of China in Chicago on the 7th, a spokesperson for the Consulate General of Chicago answered reporters' questions about the prosecution of Chinese students smuggling dangerous bacteria.
Q: The relevant US judicial departments said that two Chinese students were investigated and prosecuted for smuggling dangerous bacteria. What is the spokesperson’s comment on this?
A: We learned about this from US media reports, and are understanding the case through relevant channels, and have made solemn representations to the US side regarding the failure of US law enforcement agencies to fulfill relevant obligations stipulated in the Sino-US Consular Treaty.
The Chinese government has always required Chinese citizens to strictly abide by local laws and regulations, including relevant entry and exit regulations. At the same time, China safeguards the legitimate rights and interests of overseas Chinese citizens in accordance with the law, and firmly opposes the US's political manipulation of relevant cases under the pretext of ideology and generalization of national security.
