Politicians in New Hampshire are expressing alarm over three recent major land purchases in their state by Chinese companies and investors, Newsweek reported.
Nongfu Spring, China’s largest beverage company, recently purchased land near the Nashua Pennichuck water system.
Chinese investor Sui Liu bought the campus of a former aviation school in the state.
And the private Jiahui Education Group bought the Chester College of New England, a defunct school.
“[China] doesn’t want to get into hard war, they don’t want to fire [a] shot, but they are using these so-called acceptable international expansion strategies to get the world on their side,” Lily Tang Williams, a Chinese native and Republican congressional hopeful, told Newsweek. “But they have their own ambition and plan; it’s not to be our friend. They want to be [the] number one, dominate global power by 2049.”
New Hampshire state Sen. Kevin Avard, R-Nashua, told Newsweek he was concerned about the Chinese purchasing land near sensitive military sites.
