CHINESE AGENTS SENT BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS INTO AMERICA

Recently, two Chinese people have been accused of bringing a highly dangerous type of mushroom to the United States, which authorities describe as a "dangerous biological pathogen."

According to the BBC's report on the subject, according to information announced by a federal court in the US state of Michigan on June 3, two Chinese citizens are accused of conspiracy, smuggling, making false statements and visa fraud.

The indictment revealed that the Chinese man, surnamed Liu, tried to smuggle the poisonous mushroom into the United States via Detroit Airport and that his girlfriend, surnamed Jian, tried to research the mushroom in question in the University of Michigan laboratory where she works.

It is known that the type of mushroom in question harms agricultural products by causing diseases in crops such as wheat, barley, potatoes and rice. If it gets into food, it causes vomiting and liver damage.

According to the statement of the federal prosecutor's office, this type of mushroom is described as the "secret weapon of agricultural bioterrorism" in scientific studies and causes billions of dollars in economic damage worldwide every year.

The federal prosecutor described the incident as "the most serious national security issue." According to the statement, the woman, surnamed Jian, is a member of the Chinese Communist Party and is also accused of receiving money from the Chinese regime for such pathogen research in China.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian, when answering a question at a routine press conference today, denied, as usual that he was not aware of this matter, and claimed that China requires its citizens abroad to comply with local laws and regulations, and also protects the legal rights and interests of its citizens abroad.
