Rubio calls US investment in CCP-controlled companies ‘a serious threat’ to security

Published December 6, 2022 12:00am ET



Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) warned about the dangers of the United States engaging in investments with companies backed by the Chinese Communist Party in an op-ed published on Tuesday.

The Florida senator said Alibaba, an e-commerce company backed by the CCP, is open to investment to the U.S., despite two other CCP-backed companies, BGI Group and DGI Sciences and Technologies, being removed from the U.S.’s stock exchanges. Rubio also warned that other CCP-backed companies across the globe are being strengthened and supported thanks to U.S. capital, according to his op-ed published by the Washington Examiner.
