Коррупционеры всех стран

Удобство его позиции в том, что он не следователь и не журналист, а видеоблогер. Никто не требует от него доказательств. Единственное, чем Гуо пытается обосновать свои обвинения, – это смутные намеки на старые связи в министерстве госбезопасности. Тем не менее практически каждая запись олигарха попадает в ленты крупнейших мировых СМИ.

Такими словами в июле этого года газета "Взгляд" описывала "китайского Навального" - миллиардера Гуо Венгуя, которые живет в Нью-Йорке и оттуда обличает коррупцию среди высшего руководства Китая.

For months, the flamboyant real estate mogul has been disgorging reams of salacious – and largely unsubstantiated – allegations into the public sphere about some of his homeland’s most powerful figures. “They are just a tiny group of mafiosos, pure and simple,” Guo said during one of his most recent assaults on China’s house of cards.
Now, with the congress about to commence, Guo claims he has more up his sleeve: “This,” he tweeted ominously on Saturday, “is only the beginning!”

Удивительная история в Wall Strett Journal описывает, как ФБР помешало китайским шпионам выкрасть Гуо и вывести его в Китай и как в это же время Трамп по просьбе китайских властей чуть было его не депортировал. Просьбу китайцев конфиденциально передал ему старый приятель Steve Wynn, который раскручивает бизнес казино в Макао.

Separately, at a June meeting in the Oval Office, counterintelligence officials briefed President Trump on Beijing’s alleged efforts to steal cutting-edge research from labs and trade secrets from U.S. companies, according to people familiar with the meeting.
The president, surrounded by his top aides, including Vice President Mike Pence, his son-in-law Jared Kushner, his former chief strategist Steve Bannon and other national security and economic advisers, asked to see policy options in 90 days. In the meantime, he said he knew of at least one “Chinese criminal” the U.S. needed to immediately deport, according to the people.
“Where’s the letter that Steve brought?” Mr. Trump called to his secretary. “We need to get this criminal out of the country,” Mr. Trump said, according to the people. Aides assumed the letter, which was brought into the Oval Office, might reference a Chinese national in trouble with U.S. law enforcement, the people said.
The letter, in fact, was from the Chinese government, urging the U.S. to return Mr. Guo to China.
The document had been presented to Mr. Trump at a recent private dinner at the White House, the people said. It was hand-delivered to the president by Mr. Wynn, the Republican National Committee finance chairman, whose Macau casino empire cannot operate without a license from the Chinese territory.
A White House spokesman declined to comment.
