China’s new ambassador to the United States has called on his Chinese compatriots and Chinese students in the United States to work with the Chinese Embassy to serve communist China in his open letters published on the embassy’s official website.
Upon his arrival on May 24, the new ambassador, Xie Feng, published the letters in both English and Chinese. In one letter titled “To Fellow Compatriots in the United States,” Xie directly addressed Chinese Americans and Chinese expats in the United States on behalf of the motherland, trying to invoke nationalistic or ethnic sentiment with phrases such as “blood is thicker than water.”
He called on the Chinese community in the United States to help the regime improve U.S.–Sino relations as defined by Xi Jinping, leader of the ruling Chinese Communist Party (CCP), and to serve as “a bridge that connects the two countries” because that community has “a stake in China-U.S. relations.”
“Your support, involvement, and contribution would be most valuable,” Xie wrote.
He also extended an invitation for them to visit China.
“A China marching toward modernity is a boon to the Chinese people and to countries across the world,” he wrote. “You are most welcome to visit China often to experience the progress of the country and find opportunities there for self-fulfillment.”
At the end of the letter, Xie expressed his desire to expand his connections in the Chinese community in the United States.
“I look forward to meeting old friends here soon and making new ones,” he said, inviting Chinese people to visit the Chinese Embassy.
Xie told Chinese students in the United States to “stay united” in “loving [China] and studying abroad to serve the motherland,” and to work with the Chinese Embassy. He told them, “Tell China’s story well to your American friends.” “Tell China’s Story Well” is the Chinese communist regime’s overseas propaganda slogan to push the CCP’s narrative of its rule in China to the world.
Xie’s open letters were published right after a series of arrests of Chinese Americans who served the Chinese communist regime’s interests and agenda in the United States, in violation of U.S. laws.
