"Not a Bad Thing to Keep Outstanding Talents in China," said Hu Xijin after the US Immigration Ban towards CCP Members

On Oct. 2, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) issued policy guidance, that makes immigration application inadmissible to anyone who is, or has been a member of Communist Party or any other totalitarian party. Hu Xijin, the Chief Editor of Global Times, a tabloid backed by CCP, posted on Twitter that the decision of the U.S. has "taken out" the illusion of many people as most of the Chinese outstanding talents are CCP members. "Not bad", he wrote. He added that the interests of non-CCP members on immigrating to the U.S. had a significant decrease nowadays.

The U.S. was only reiterating the policy, that Chapter 3 of the original Policy Manual already have the immigration requirements and the corresponding procedures for the totalitarian party members. According to the Policy Manual, if totalitarian party members would like to immigrate, they have to prove themselves that they are the exceptions and waivers with evidence, and they do not pose a threat to the national safety in the US.

Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister Says Will Keep Pressuring China on Human Rights Issues and Warns that Tough Talk is Meaningless

Since the case of Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou, the Sino-Canada relation remains tense. Francois-Philippe Champagne, the Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister, said in the House of Commons on Monday (23rd Nov) that Canada would continue to pressure China with allies, especially on the human rights issues, and emphasized that irresponsible tough talk on China generates no tangible results.

Appearing before the Canada-China Relations Committee of the Canadian Parliament, Champagne referred China to be a key role in climate change and global economic development. He also point out that tough talk on China is useless, “To those who are seduced by this one-dimensional view, I say that while it is easy to be tough, Let's not fall into the temptation of tough and irresponsible rhetoric that will generate no tangible results for Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor, our farmers and entrepreneurs, and human rights victims and advocates.”

Champagne emphasized that Canada would not be soft on the human rights situation, including the crackdowns in Hong Kong and Xinjiang. In fact, Canada was the first to suspend the extradition treaty with Hong Kong in July and promised to make it easier for Hong Kong youth to immigrate to Canada. Champagne said, “It is absolutely imperative that advanced democracies like Canada and our like-minded partners work together to protect the international rules that have ensured stability and prosperity for decades. It is a challenge we all share. No country will succeed alone.”

It states that China has accumulated 10.73 million immigrants, making it the world's third-largest immigrants exporter. The United States continues to be their first choice, having 2.89 million in accumulation up to last year. Moreover, immigrants population is getting younger, many of them came to the US to study as early as high school, while the proportion of "investment immigrants" has significantly declined. Some lawyers specializing in immigration services said that although many Chinese parents are resistant to "brainwashing education" in China, the US is also tightening visa restrictions for Chinese people.
