Harvard speaker allegedly linked to Chinese Communist Party to ‘gather intelligence' from US
Government Accountability Institute President and author Peter Schweizer says the Harvard 2025 commencement speaker, Yurong 'Luranna' Jiang, is a 'classic example of Chinese propaganda'.
Ms Jiang apparently worked for a Chinese Communist Party entity with extensive ties to Beijing's military and intelligence networks.
'These are often times middle-ranking bureaucrats in their late 20s that are going to the Kennedy School at Harvard,' Mr Schweizer told Sky News host James Morrow.
'These are people that are already part of the CCP party and government apparatus.
'We need to stop engaging in mirror imaging.
'It's part of a sophisticated effort that they have to undermine the United States to gather intelligence and to perpetuate the interest of the CCP.'
