WASHINGTON—Through public pension and retirement funds, Americans are underwriting China’s human rights abuses. Their investment portfolios hold China-based companies such as Hikvision, which has come under increased scrutiny over its role in the mass surveillance of millions of Chinese citizens.
Americans are “unwittingly aiding and abetting the concentration camp business” in China, according to Roger Robinson, a former member of President Ronald Reagan’s National Security Council and president and CEO of RWR Advisory Group, which tracks Chinese investments worldwide.
