US-Funded Research Aided Chinese Military, Congressional Report Finds

Imagine the U.S. government gives money to universities for research.

A new report says some of this money helped China's military.

This happened because some American universities worked with Chinese universities and research groups.

These Chinese partners are linked to their military.

The research included topics like high-speed technology and artificial intelligence, which can be used by the military.

Some of the projects were done with Chinese groups that the U.S. government is concerned about.

The report worries that the U.S. is helping China's military and wants to limit this type of research.

China says this claim is untrue and science cooperation between the two countries is mutually beneficial.
