Sun Yaoning, 64, Arrested in Chino Hills for Acting as Chinese Agent in 2022 City Council Election
Dec 22, 2024, 01:00 AM
Sun Yaoning, a 64-year-old resident of Chino Hills, California, has been arrested and charged with acting as an illegal agent for the Chinese government. He is accused of serving as a campaign manager for a politician who won a city council seat in Southern California in 2022, while also reporting campaign activities to Beijing officials. The charges, outlined in a criminal complaint, suggest that Sun was involved in efforts to influence U.S. politics on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party. This incident highlights ongoing concerns regarding foreign influence in American elections, particularly from China. The case has drawn attention to the presence of pro-Chinese Communist Party organizations in the U.S. and their connections to local political figures.
