American Agriculture Secretary: The US Will Restrict Citizens of "Adversary Countries" from Purchasing U.S. Farmland
American Agriculture Secretary Brooke Lierman stated that the U.S. Department of Agriculture plans to take measures to prohibit Chinese citizens or any other citizens deemed "adversary" countries by the U.S. government from purchasing U.S. farmland.
President of the United States Donald Trump repeatedly emphasized during his campaign that Chinese purchases of U.S. farmland pose a serious threat to national security, and he promised to ban citizens of the People's Republic of China from purchasing U.S. land.
Lierman said at a press conference: "We will vigorously promote actions at all levels of the government, taking emergency legislative and administrative measures to prohibit Chinese citizens and citizens of other adversary countries from purchasing U.S. farmland."
