CCP Tightens Exit Controls Amid Sharp Increase in Citizens Fleeing China
The sharp increase of Chinese citizens joining the “run” movement—fleeing China by both legal and illegal means—has attracted international attention since the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) three-year draconian “zero-COVID” lockdowns that caused countless humanitarian tragedies.
Most of them have taken various routes to the United States, their ideal destination. Meanwhile, the CCP is reported to have tightened control over Chinese citizens' overseas travel to save face as so many citizens are fleeing, in contrast to the CCP's claim of “confidence” in its system.
【譯文】逃離中國公民驟增 中共收緊出境控管
中共歷時三年嚴厲的「零新冠」封鎖，造成無數人道悲劇，中國公民透過合法或非法手段逃離中國，加入「逃亡」運動的人數驟增，引發國際社會關注。大多數人已藉由各種途徑，抵達心中理想之地——美國。
據報導，同時間有大量中國公民逃離家園，中共為顧及顏面，加強公民海外旅行控管，恰與中共聲稱對其制度「充滿信心」相反。
