US President Donald Trump on Thursday declassified documents and reports accusing Beijing of meddling in the US elections and compromising voter data.While addressing the nation, Trump said that the data loss presented an unprecedented election security nightmare.Here are the top quotes from his address

  • Newly declassified documents show that over a period of years starting during the 2020 election cycle, the People’s Republic of China carried out what is believed to be the largest compromise of election data in history — resulting in China’s illicit acquisition of 220 million U.S. voter files.
  • That information includes names, addresses, phone numbers, political party preferences, and other sensitive data that would be needed to register to vote, and engage in other nefarious activities.
  • This data loss presents an unprecedented election security nightmare. The intelligence even shows that China assigned a data exploitation unit specifically to this new project.
