WASHINGTON: US House Republicans opened a probe Friday into Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz's "extensive engagement" with China. In a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray, House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chair James Comer requested information, documents and communications related to Chinese entities and officials Walz may have engaged. "Americans should be deeply concerned that Governor Walz, Kamala Harris's vice-presidential running mate, has a longstanding and cozy relationship with China," wrote Comer. He said Walz has visited China "dozens of times" and served as a fellow at a Chinese institution. "The American people deserve to fully understand how deep Governor Walz's relationship with China goes," he added. Source: Anadolu Agency
