New CIA videos are trying to lure Chinese officials to hurt our secrets

The CIA introduced two Chinese -speaking videos on Thursday to seduce civil servants in China to surpass secrets to the United States.

The move takes place after the CIA started an effort to hire new informants in China, Iran and North Korea in October, by publishing instructions online to safely contact the agency and after the successful efforts to include the Russians.

The CIA is confident that the videos will penetrate China's “great firewall” in China's Internet restrictions and reach the intended audience.

“If it doesn't work, we would no longer make videos,” said a CIA official and added that China was the most important secret services in a “really generation competition” between the USA and China.

The two videos published in the social media accounts of the CIA show fictional scenes in which a high -ranking civil servant of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and a more Junior government agent with access to classified information from China's system are disappointed and approach the CIA.

The videos seem to be using possible dissatisfaction in the Chinese government and in high -ranking echelons of the KPCH, since President Xi Jinping Top officials and military leaders have cleaned, some of whom were considered close allies of XI themselves.
