washington - John Harold Rogers, a former advisor to the Federal Reserve, has been arrested on suspicion of spying for China.

Former Advisor Accused of Spying

John Harold Rogers, a former high-level advisor at the Federal Reserve, has been arrested for allegedly conspiring with Chinese intelligence operatives to obtain sensitive information. Rogers, who worked at the Fed's international finance division from 2010 to 2021, is accused of passing information on the Fed's policy, international economic developments, trade, and capital flows to individuals posing as students from China. The authorities claim that China could have used this information to manipulate the US financial markets, similar to insider trading in stocks.

During his time teaching at a Chinese university, Rogers allegedly received hundreds of thousands of dollars for his lectures, as well as payments for meals, accommodations, and even a beach vacation. He now faces charges of attempted economic espionage and making false statements, with a potential prison sentence of up to fifteen years if convicted.

The FBI has stated that the Chinese Communist Party has expanded its economic espionage campaign to target the financial policies and trade secrets of the US government in an effort to undermine the United States and become the dominant global power.

China, as the second-largest foreign holder of US Treasury bonds with over $768 billion, denies any knowledge of the case's details and emphasizes its commitment to abiding by the law. The Chinese embassy in Washington asserts that the country does not interfere in the internal affairs of other nations.
