Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak's campaigns are now getting into more of the nitty gritty of policy pledges as they try to sway Conservative Party members in the race to become Tory leader and prime minister.
Mr Sunak accused China of"stealing our technology and infiltrating our universities", while"propping up Putin's fascist invasion of Ukraine", bullying Taiwan and contravening human rights in Xinjiang and Hong Kong, as well as suppressing their currency to"continually rig the global economy in their favour.
Mr Sunak has also committed to reviewing all UK-Chinese research partnerships that could assist China technologically or have military applications, as well as expanding MI5's reach to provide greater support to British businesses and universities to counter alleged Chinese industrial espionage.The former chancellor said he would look at whether there is a need to prevent Chinese acquisitions of key British assets to address concerns about the scale of Chinese investment in key industries.
