Chinese espionage

Throughout his second term in office, President Clinton's
policies of engagement and transparency with the People's
Republic of China came under intense scrutiny by Congress
and the media. It was learned that political appointees and
fund-raisers of his (John Huang, Charlie Trie, James Riady,
et al.) either had direct ties to Chinese intelligence, or
were found to have been illegally donating money wired to
them from Asian sources to Clinton's 1996 re-election
campaign and legal defense trust. The issue was compounded
when it was learned that a top Chinese arms merchant (Wang
Jun) was allowed to attend a White House "coffee" meeting
with Clinton and a number of his campaign donors in February
1996. These questions gained added urgency after Congress
released the unanimous report known as the Cox Report in
1999, which documented that China had acquired intelligence
about the United States' top military secrets. According to
the report, MIRV, encryption, satellite, ICBM, and advanced
nuclear weapon technology was stolen. Many members of
Clinton's staff learned of the thefts as early as July 1995,
but Clinton himself was not told until July 1997.
