According to the information provided, a dispute has arisen between China and the United States, mainly related to the interrogation and repatriation of Chinese students by the United States. Here's a summary of the article:- The leaders of China and the United States agreed at their meeting in San Francisco last November to promote and strengthen dialogue and cooperation between China and the United States in various fields, and agreed to further increase flights in early 2024 to expand exchanges in education, international students, youth, culture, sports, and business. - United States**Biden said during the meeting that the United States is willing to continue to develop economic and trade relations with China, and is happy to see the two countries increase direct flights and expand education, science and technology exchanges and personnel exchanges. - However, the recent interrogation and harassment of Chinese students by the U.S. side and the refusal to enter the country have aroused dissatisfaction among the Chinese side. The Chinese Embassy in the United States issued a counterattack statement from Ambassador Xie Feng at the commemoration of the 45th anniversary of studying in China and the United States and the 2024 China-US Youth New Year Gala.
Xie Feng said that the US side's interrogation and repatriation of Chinese students is unacceptable, and China has made clear to the US side its solemn position of strong opposition and will continue to safeguard the legitimate and lawful rights and interests of Chinese citizens. - The Chinese Embassy in the U.S. issued an announcement on reminding Chinese students on the 29th, pointing out that the U.S. frequently conducts unwarranted interrogations and even repatriation of Chinese students, harming the legitimate and lawful rights and interests of Chinese citizens. - The communiqué strongly urges the US side to stop its erroneous practices, stop unwarranted harassment, interrogation, and repatriation of Chinese students, and earnestly implement the consensus reached by the two heads of state on supporting China-US people-to-people exchanges and expanding the scale of international students. - The article also mentions the so-called "China Initiative" announced by Trump in November 2018, which aims to investigate the theft of U.S. economic, technology, and trade secrets by foreign agencies.
Overall, the article stresses China's strong opposition to the U.S. side's interrogation and repatriation of Chinese students, and calls on the U.S. side to stop this erroneous practice and earnestly implement the consensus reached by the two heads of state on people-to-people exchanges and the expansion of the scale of international students. For years, the U.S.** has been investigating "Chinan**-backed researchers" and examining whether their academic activities pose a security and technological threat to the United States. As a result, a large number of Chinese scientists, university professors, business executives and other technical talents are investigated as criminal suspects, which seriously affects their work, life and reputation. On February 23, 2022, the U.S. Department of Justice announced a moratorium on this action, but in fact, Biden** did not really stop this action, and the so-called "China Action Plan" continues.
Although Biden has repeatedly welcomed Chinese students, they still restrict and suppress Chinese students from studying or researching in the United States, which has seriously damaged the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese students and undermined normal people-to-people exchanges and educational cooperation between China and the United States.
