Top Chinese counterintelligence official defected to US, provided intel on Wuhan lab and China's bioweapons programs: Reports

There are multiple reports that a top Chinese official, who is reportedly "close to" Chinese President Xi Jinping, has defected to the United States. The reports claim that the defector is cooperating with a U.S. intelligence agency, providing eye-opening intel about the Wuhan Institute of Virology and China's bioweapons programs.

There are reports that Dong Jingwei defected from China with his daughter Dong Yang in mid-February, flying from Hong Kong to the United States. Dong landed in California, where he contacted the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency to inform officials that he was defecting and could provide inside information about covert Chinese operations, according to a report from Red State, which says, "Dong then 'hid in plain sight' for about two weeks before disappearing into DIA custody."

Dong is a longtime official in China's Ministry of State Security, also known as the "Guoanbu." The U.S. Department of Justice describes the Ministry of State Security as an "institution similar to the FBI and the Central Intelligence Agency (ClA) combined under one intelligence directorate responsible for counter-intelligence, foreign intelligence, and political security."

Dong's "publicly available background indicates that he was responsible for the Ministry's counterintelligence efforts in China, i.e., spy-catching, since being promoted to vice minister in April 2018," as reported by the Daily Beast and SpyTalk, which is a news site offering analysis on national security topics and U.S. intelligence operations.

"If the stories are true, Dong would be the highest-level defector in the history of the People's Republic of China," the report says.        ... ................

That links to an American Thinker article about
the defector going to the Defense Intelligence Agency,
NOT the CIA or FBI.

Being in Chinese intelligence, he knows which people in the CIA and FBI that China has corrupted.
