Former U.S. Army Commander Flynn accused that "more than 10% of Chinese students studying for master's and doctoral degrees in the United States are Chinese spies".
On the 15th, Charles Flynn, former commander of the U.S. Pacific Army, said that it is necessary to deploy assets of South Korean troops to areas outside the Korean Peninsula in the Indo-Pacific region.
Flynn stated: "Currently, there are about 325,000 Chinese graduate students studying for master's and doctoral degrees in the United States, and we suspect that more than 10% of them are spies."
Regarding the defense cost negotiations between South Korea and the United States, he said: "The Trump administration requires the sharing rate of defense costs to be increased to 100%, and the South Korean government should not be surprised," and preparations should be made in advance for such a requirement, preferably before the United States makes the request, by proactively stating, "We will bear 100%."
He also said: "Everyone has seen how the Trump administration deals with NATO and the EU (European Union)," "Raising defense costs to 100% is a campaign promise of Trump. American citizens expect this promise to be fulfilled because the U.S. debt has reached $36 trillion, which is why it is like this."
Flynn is the younger brother of Michael Flynn, who served as White House National Security Advisor during Trump's first term, and is rumored to hold key positions in the foreign and security sectors during Trump's second term.
