Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews is facing increasing scrutiny from the state’s Liberal and National Parties over his staffer’s connections to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and Victoria’s agreement with Beijing to join its Belt and Road infrastructure project.
Taking to Twitter on June 2, the state’s Liberal Opposition Leader Michael O'Brien wrote that the Chinese Communist Party had compromised the Andrews’ government after an Andrews’ staffer was accused of having ties to the United Front, a propaganda arm of the CCP.
