A California man pleaded guilty to secretly working as an illegal Chinese agent during a local campaign.
A California man, Yaoning "Mike" Sun, a Chinese citizen living legally in the U.S., has agreed to plead guilty to acting as an illegal agent for the Chinese government from 2022 to 2024 while working as a campaign advisor and treasurer for local politician Eileen Wang in Arcadia.
He is accused of posting pro-Beijing content on a campaign website and drafting a report seeking funding for further activities.
The case, part of broader U.S. concerns about foreign interference in local elections, could result in up to 10 years in prison if approved by a judge.
Sun has no official ties to the city, and Wang, who won the 2022 election, has not been charged but plans to cooperate with authorities.
