　　Cctv newsOn November 4th, the US media released pictures of Russian citizen Bujingna who was involved in the spy storm and was interviewed when she was detained. American citizens detained in Russia after Bujingna’s release — — What will happen to Whelan?

Bujingna: I am a "victim of racial discrimination against Russians"

Bujingna: I am a "victim of racial discrimination against Russians"

　　On October 26th, Bukina, a Russian citizen who was imprisoned in the United States for being convicted of "illegally acting as a foreign agent", returned to Russia. Born in 1988, Bujingna came from Siberia, Russia. In 2018, she obtained a master’s degree in international relations from American University, and was arrested in Washington, D.C. in July of the same year. In April 2019, a federal court in Washington sentenced Bujingna to 18 months in prison. During her detention, Bujingna accepted an interview with the US media, saying that she was "a victim of racial discrimination against Russians".

　　BujingnaI never wanted to influence your policy. I came here alone because I wanted to learn from the United States and then go back to Russia to make Russia a better place.

　　According to the American side, Bujingna "conspired" with senior Russian officials and infiltrated into the powerful National Rifle Association of the United States, in order to penetrate into the inner circle of conservatives and Republicans and influence the US policy toward Russia. The National Rifle Association (NRA) is the largest gun owner organization and powerful interest group in the United States. At present, it has nearly 5 million members and has great influence in American politics.

　　Bujingna told the media that the US federal government wanted to portray her as a "fox" sent by the Kremlin.

　　The US media said that in the thousands of private tweets that she exchanged with a Russian official, she used words such as "according to our established plan" and "for future battles". However, the Russian side claimed that the prosecution and conviction of Bujingna by the US side was "politically biased" and that Bujingna was convicted only because she was a Russian citizen. The outside world also noticed that the crime of Bujingna’s final sentence did not involve "espionage", but "illegally acting as a foreign agent".

　　Russian court extended the detention of American citizen Paul Whelan until the end of 2019.

　　After Bujingna was released, the outside world was also concerned about the fate of Paul Whelan. Whelan, 49, was once a member of the US Marine Corps and was arrested in Moscow on December 28, 2018. The Russian Federal Security Service identified it as "engaged in espionage" in Moscow. At that time, some American media believed that Russia might have arrested Whelan for the sake of exchanging Bujingna.

　　On October 24th, a court in Moscow, Russia ruled that Whelan’s detention would be extended for two months until December 29th. Whelan insisted that he was innocent when he appeared in court, saying that he went to Russia only to attend a friend’s wedding.


　　Whelan, an American detained by Russia.Russia said they had caught James Bond, but in fact they just caught Mr. Bean who was on vacation.

　　The United States asked Russia to provide evidence of Whelan’s misconduct or release him.

　　According to Russian law, the maximum penalty for espionage is 20 years’ imprisonment. The US House of Representatives also passed a resolution on October 22nd, demanding that Russia provide evidence of Whelan’s misconduct or release him. In fact, this round of "spy storm" is just the tip of the iceberg where the United States and Russia have long been tit for tat. Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov broke the news that American agents tried to "rebel" Russian diplomats.

　　Russian Foreign Minister LavrovIn April 2016, the United States tried to "poach" the second-ranking official of the Russian Embassy in the United States and demanded his cooperation. The US intelligence department also put $10,000 in cash in the car of a senior Russian diplomat and left a note, trying to buy him off.

　　Lavrov also said that American diplomats in Russia often appeared in anti-government demonstrations, and some people disguised themselves to hide their eyes and ears.

　　Russian Foreign Minister LavrovThere was a famous incident. An American diplomat wore a wig and fake eyebrows. He wanted to enter the American Embassy in Russia, but refused to show his identity to the Russian police in charge of entrance control, and then he was beaten. It happened several times, and other American diplomats disguised themselves, including men disguised as women, and then recovered their true colors in public toilets. These were recorded.

Us media: the largest spy exchange between the United States and Russia after the Cold War in 2010

　　In fact, the spy war between the United States and Russia has been going on. As early as 2010, there was the largest spy exchange event after the Cold War. In June 2010, the US Department of Justice announced that it had captured more than 10 Russian agents who had been lurking in the United States for a long time. The most striking of these agents is anna chapman, a "beauty spy" who was born in 1982 and has a master’s degree. According to the American side, Anna "curve immigrated" to the United States with her British husband, and successfully mingled with the upper class and had contacts with many political and diplomatic figures. It is reported that in exchange for these spies, Moscow released four "heavyweight" personnel who were held in Russia and allegedly provided information to the West, including a nuclear expert.

　　Special commentator Teng JianqunAfter the end of the Cold War, the US-Russia spy war mainly focused on two levels. On the technical level, US technical reconnaissance against Russia has never stopped, and on the human intelligence level, US-Russia espionage and counter-espionage activities are still going on.

The column pointed out that the People’s Bank of China, closely focusing on the three tasks of serving the real economy, preventing and controlling financial risks, and deepening financial reform, resolutely fought a tough battle to prevent and resolve major financial risks in accordance with the basic principles of "overall stability, overall coordination, classified policies, and accurate bomb disposal", improved the working system and mechanism of financial stability, and disposed and resolved a number of outstanding risk points with great influence, urgency and overall situation in an orderly manner, effectively safeguarding the overall situation of national economic and financial security and financial stability.

Properly handle high-risk groups and high-risk financial institutions.

The column pointed out that the People’s Bank of China adhered to the principles of marketization and rule of law, filled the shortcomings of the system, and "accurately defused" a group of enterprise groups with high risk and large scale. Through the case warnings of bankruptcy liquidation of Baoshang Bank, bankruptcy reorganization of HNA Group, Huaxin Group and Founder Group, all kinds of business entities are urged to truly feel the hard constraints of market principles such as "doing business requires capital, borrowing money needs to be repaid, investment needs to bear risks, and doing bad things requires a price", thus further strengthening the awareness of practicing according to law, compliance management and prudent operation. We will continue to promote the reform of small and medium-sized banks, accelerate the reform of rural credit cooperatives with "one province and one policy", and steadily promote the reform, restructuring and risk resolution of village banks. Actively explore pilot projects for early correction of hard constraints in some provinces, and put forward a hard constraint requirement of "rectification within a time limit" for incremental high-risk banks.

Comprehensively clean up and rectify the financial order

The column pointed out that the People’s Bank of China formulated a series of regulatory systems, such as the introduction of new asset management regulations, unified regulatory standards, broke rigid payment, strengthened risk isolation, and promoted the rectification and transformation of asset management business. By the end of 2021, the transition period of new asset management regulations ended, and the chaos of nesting and idling funds was effectively curbed, and the scale of shadow banking dropped significantly. Smooth completion of the rectification of outstanding problems in the financial business of Internet platform enterprises, and shift the focus of work to normal supervision. The special rectification of Internet financial risks has achieved good results, all P2P online lending institutions have closed down, and the rectification work in the fields of Internet asset management, equity crowdfunding, Internet insurance, virtual currency trading and Internet foreign exchange trading has been basically completed. We will further promote risk remediation of local financial asset exchanges, "fake gold exchanges" and third-party wealth management companies, crack down on illegal fund-raising and resolutely curb speculation in domestic virtual currency transactions. Continue to intensify the investigation and handling of money laundering cases.

Effectively prevent and resolve risks in key areas.

The column pointed out that the People’s Bank of China made comprehensive measures from both sides of supply and demand to maintain the smooth operation of the real estate market. Keep real estate financing stable and orderly. Due to the city’s policy to implement differentiated housing credit policies, we will continue to guide the real interest rate and down payment ratio to better support rigid and improved housing demand. Take a number of measures with relevant departments to actively support local governments to steadily resolve debt risks. Guide financial institutions to negotiate with financing platforms on an equal footing according to the principles of marketization and rule of law, and adopt classified measures to resolve the risk of existing debts, strictly control incremental debts, and improve the normalized financial debt monitoring mechanism of financing platforms through extension, borrowing new ones and replacing old ones.

Build and improve the financial stability guarantee system

The column pointed out that the People’s Bank of China continued to promote the construction of financial rule of law, and the Financial Stability Law, the People’s Bank of China Law, the Commercial Bank Law and the Insurance Law were included in the legislative plan of the National People’s Congress, while the regulations on local financial supervision and management, non-bank payment institutions and foreign exchange management were included in the legislative work plan of the State Council in 2023. We will improve the framework of macro-prudential management system, establish a countercyclical capital buffer mechanism, introduce evaluation methods for systemically important banks and insurance companies, issue supervision rules and access regulations for financial holding companies, formulate a work plan for overall supervision of financial infrastructure, and constantly improve comprehensive statistics of the financial industry. Improve the deposit insurance system, and effectively play the core functions of deposit insurance, such as preventing bank runs, differential rates, early correction, and risk disposal. Accelerate the establishment of a financial stability guarantee fund, initially establish the basic framework, and have accumulated certain funds.

At present, China’s financial risks are generally convergent and controllable. At the end of the second quarter of 2023, the total assets of China’s financial institutions were 449.21 trillion yuan, of which the total assets of banking institutions were 406.25 trillion yuan, accounting for more than 90% of the assets. The banking industry occupies the dominant position, and the stability of the bank leads to financial stability. Judging from the results of the quarterly rating of banking financial institutions by the People’s Bank of China, most of the nearly 4,000 commercial banks in the second quarter of 2023 are within the safe boundary; The number of high-risk banks is only over 300, and the assets account for less than 2% of all banks. The rating of 24 large banks with assets accounting for about 70% has been excellent, and some banks’ main operating indicators are at the international leading level, which has played a key role in China’s financial system as a "ballast stone". The supervision indicators of financial institutions are in a reasonable range. By the end of the second quarter of 2023, the capital adequacy ratio, non-performing loan ratio and provision coverage ratio of commercial banks were 14.66%, 1.62% and 206.13%, respectively. The average comprehensive solvency adequacy ratio of insurance companies was 188%, and the risk coverage ratio and average capital leverage ratio of securities companies were 255.38% and 18.78%, respectively. The credit risk was at a controllable level and the loss resilience was maintained.

Firmly hold the bottom line of no systemic risk.

The column pointed out that in the next step, the People’s Bank of China will thoroughly implement the spirit of the Central Financial Work Conference and unswervingly follow the road of financial development with China characteristics. Strengthen financial supervision in an all-round way, improve macro-prudential management, strengthen the monitoring and analysis of systemic risks, shadow banking and financial technological innovation, improve the early correction mechanism with hard constraints, and realize early identification, early warning, early exposure and early disposal of risks. Strengthen the construction of financial security system, classify policies, deal with the risks of high-risk small and medium-sized financial institutions in a timely manner, effectively prevent the cross-regional, cross-market and cross-border transmission resonance of risks, and firmly hold the bottom line that systemic risks do not occur.
