Establishing so-called overseas police stations without the invitation or approval of the country in which they are operating raises serious issues of respect for the sovereignty of that country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The spokesperson for The Epoch Times directed The Epoch Times to both the FBI and Justice Department in order to get more information. The Justice Department didn\u2019t respond to a request for comment by press time, and the FBI declined to comment on the matter.<\/p>\n<h2><b>China\u2019s Communist Regime \u2018Violates Sovereignty\u2019<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Chinese authorities insist that the facilities were not destroyed. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/2-more-secret-ccp-police-stations-discovered-in-la-and-new-york-report_4909946.html\">Operate<\/a> in 53 nations, assist Chinese immigrants in foreign nations with tasks that would normally be handled by a consulate, such as renewing driver\u2019s licenses and visas.<\/p>\n<p>However, the stations have been linked to the CCP\u2019s United Front Work Department, an<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/chinese-regime-amping-up-united-front-efforts-to-influence-western-democracies-report_3382477.html\"> agency<\/a> that works to advance the regime\u2019s interests abroad by spreading propaganda, conducting foreign influence operations, suppressing dissident movements, gathering intelligence, and facilitating the transfer of technology to communist China.<\/p>\n<p>Many nations expressed concern that these facilities pose a threat to their national security and violate their sovereignty.<\/p>\n<p>Canadian, Dutch, and Irish officials called on China not to conduct similar operations in their own countries. They are also a violation U.S. sovereignty, according to Christopher Wray, Director of FBI.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m very concerned about this,\u201d Wray <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/chinas-secret-police-station-violates-sovereignty-of-us-fbi-director_4870228.html\"><\/a> During\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.c-span.org\/video\/?524139-1\/dhs-sec-mayorkas-fbi-dir-wray-testify-threats-homeland&#038;live\">November 2022 hearing<\/a> of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have to be careful about discussing our specific investigative work, but to me, it is outrageous to think that the Chinese police would attempt to set up shop\u2014you know, in New York, let\u2019s say\u2014without proper coordination. It violates sovereignty and circumvents standard judicial and law enforcement cooperation processes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He refrained at the time from commenting on the legality of the overseas police stations but said they were part of the CCP\u2019s campaign of global transnational repression and linked them to CCP efforts to spy on Americans.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe reason this is so important is because we have seen a clear pattern of the Chinese government, the Chinese Communist Party, exporting their repression right here into the U.S.,\u201d Wray spoke.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have seen plenty of situations \u2026 where the Chinese government, under the pretext of going after corruption, have essentially used that as a vehicle to surveil. We\u2019ve had situations where they\u2019ve planted bugs inside Americans\u2019 cars.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Safeguard Defenders reports that there are three other similar facilities operating in Los Angeles and New York.
