Former insider: Beijing is a ‘paper tiger’ inside; Pro-US athlete jailed in China for 8 months
A professional basketball player from the U.S., arbitrarily detained in China for 8 months. We interviewed him for a glimpse into China’s detention facilities for foreigners. Two renowned Chinese scientists are violently attacked and hospitalized by an aerospace company’s executive. One of them is 85 years old. Facebook, Google, and Twitter could stop offering their services in Hong Kong. City authorities plan to change privacy laws there. While the companies’ staff may be at risk of ‘severe sanctions’. And a Chinese Communist Party insider is urging the U.S. to abandon efforts to work with Beijing — calling those hopes “naive.”
