Wray thinks Chinese professors, scientists, and students
in America is “a whole of society threat”.
On February 13, 2018, in a Senate Select Committee on Intelligence hearing focused on Chinese espionage in the United States, Senator Marco Rubio [R-FL] asked Wray about the risk posed from Chinese students in advanced science and mathematics programs. In response, Wray stated “nontraditional collectors” (which he elaborated to include professors, scientists, and students) are “exploiting the very open research and development environment that we have” and consequently he viewed the risk “as not just a whole of government threat but a whole of society threat”.
Thanks. And he was correct.
