U.S. Plans To Issue Official Protest To China Over Attack On Google

16 January 2010
WASHINGTON POST (WASHINGTON, D.C.) - The United States plans to issue a formal "demarche" to the Chinese government in the near term in regards to "Operation Aurora" and allegations of state-sponsored hacking. A formal diplomatic message will signal a shift in U.S./China relations says Richard N. Rosecrance, who is the director of the Project on U.S.-China Relations at Harvard University. He continues to say that due to alleged state-sponsorship, the previously held favorable U.S. policy toward China "might now begin to shift in another direction". Source:
