FBI Director Christopher Wray called China the 'biggest long-term threat' to both the U.S. and the U.K.
Speaking alongside his British counterpart in London on Wednesday, FBI Director Christopher Wray called China the"biggest long-term threat" to both the U.S. and the U.K.
"We've even caught people affiliated with Chinese companies out in the U.S. heartland, sneaking into fields to dig up proprietary, genetically modified seeds, which would have cost them nearly a decade and billions in research to develop themselves," Wray said."And those efforts pale in comparison to their lavishly-resourced hacking program that's bigger than that of every other major country combined.
. Relations between the U.S. and China have evolved since President Joe Biden took office -- his predecessor Donald Trump embarked on a trade war with the country -- and the U.S. and China remain deeply intertwined, though they are often opposed on various issues. North Korean-backed cyber actors are targeting the health care and public health sector, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency , the FBI and Treasury Department said on Wednesday.
