U.S.-China Military Contacts: Issues for Congress
U.S.-China Military Contacts: Issues for Congress Shirley A. Kan Specialist in Asian Security Affairs October 27, 2014 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL32496 U.S.-China Military Contacts: Issues for Congress Summary This CRS Report, updated through the 113th Congress, discusses policy issues regarding military- to-military (mil-to-mil) contacts with the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and records major contacts and crises since 1993. The United States suspended military contacts with China and imposed sanctions on arms sales in response to the Tiananmen Crackdown in 1989. In 1993, President Clinton reengaged with the top PRC leadership, including China’s military, the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). Renewed military exchanges with the PLA have not regained the closeness reached in the 1980s, when U.S.-PRC strategic alignment against the Soviet Union included U.S. arms sales to China. Improvements and deteriorations in overall bilateral engagement have affected military contacts, which were close in 1997-1998 and 2000, but marred by the 1995-1996 Taiwan Strait crisis, mistaken NATO bombing of a PRC embassy in 1999, the EP-3 aircraft collision crisis in 2001, and the PLA’s aggressive maritime and air confrontations. Issues for Congress include whether the Administration complies with legislation overseeing dealings with the PLA and pursues contacts with the PLA that advance a prioritized set of U.S. security interests, especially the operational safety of U.S. military personnel. Oversight legislation includes the Foreign Relations Authorization Act for FY1990-FY1991 (P.L. 101-246) and National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for FY2000 (P.L. -

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT of CONNECTICUT UNITED STATES of AMERICA, Plaintiff, V. KRISTIAN SAUCIER, Defendant. Crimin
Case 3:15-cr-00131-SRU Document 104 Filed 08/15/16 Page 1 of 37 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF CONNECTICUT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, Criminal No. 3:15CR131 (SRU) v. KRISTIAN SAUCIER, Defendant. GOVERNMENT’S SENTENCING MEMORANDUM TO THE HONORABLE COURT: COMES NOW the United States, by and through the undersigned attorneys, and respectfully submits this Sentencing Memorandum with regard to the defendant Kristian Saucier (“Saucier” or “the defendant”) to assist the Court in consideration of the relevant issues in determining the appropriate sentence in this case pursuant the United States Sentencing Guidelines and Title 18, United States Code, Section § 3553. Introduction The defendant stands convicted of retaining national defense information, which he himself created by taking photographs of the most sensitive areas of a U.S. nuclear attack submarine. He subsequently obstructed the investigation of that offense by destroying evidence, to wit a laptop, camera and memory card thereby inhibiting the FBI and NCIS from determining to any degree of certainty if the information had been distributed or otherwise compromised. The Government submits that the criminal conduct of the defendant was egregious and put at risk the national security of our nation. Therefore, considering the seriousness of the offense, the need to promote respect for the law, to afford adequate deterrence to criminal conduct and to Case 3:15-cr-00131-SRU Document 104 Filed 08/15/16 Page 2 of 37 provide just punishment for the offense, a sentence of incarceration is warranted and the Government moves the Court to sentence the defendant to 63 months imprisonment. -
