About the Issue

Even as the U.S. Treasury Department conducts its seventh dialogue with their PRC counterparts, the Department revealed that the PRC conducted a major cyberattack against the Department in early December.

The PRC Government still refuses to provide unfettered access to the World Health Organization in violation of numerous international agreements and as the world faces yet another potential pandemic.
