The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has held a press conference to announce that the 23 athletes of the Chinese swimming team are innocent and innocent due to food contamination and test positive, and at the same time warned some European and American media not to spread rumors and slander, and reserve the right to resort to legal means. Everyone thought that this matter was over, and the tree wanted to be quiet and the wind did not stop, and foreign media broke the news that the United States would bite this matter, and even the FBI would be deeply involved.
According to Yahoo Sports, the FBI is interested in the matter, and US law enforcement agencies have learned about the case and are taking steps to gather more information. Under the Rodchenkov Anti-Doping Act of 2019, the U.S. Department of Justice has the authority to prosecute foreign nationals who violate international sport through drug testing.

The Americans strongly opposed this decision, and they have strong laws to investigate sports crimes involving any American athlete, and of course, the Tokyo Olympics also have American athletes participating. So that they can bring in the FBI, and I think we'll hear more about that later. ”
The domestic "Global Times" also confirmed the sinister intentions of the long-arm jurisdiction of the United States: "According to the Rodchenkov Anti-Doping Act, the US Department of Justice can unilaterally impose criminal jurisdiction over doping-related incidents outside its own country", and this criminal punishment includes but is not limited to imprisonment, fines, confiscation of property, etc...... That is to say, the food contamination incident that occurred at the Holiday Inn Huayang in Shijiazhuang violated the laws of the United States.
The New York Times of the United States, the Daily Telegraph of Australia, the German ARD television station, the British "Times" and other Western mainstream media organized and premeditated to expose and attack the so-called positive drug test incident of the Chinese swimming team at the same time, hoping to achieve the goal of smearing before the Paris Olympics. If the FBI continues to be deeply involved, it will certainly find a new "breakthrough" to distort the facts. We must not allow the conspiracy of Western forces to stigmatize the Chinese swimming team succeed, and now that the Chinese Swimming Association is at a disadvantage in the battle of public opinion, domestic swimming journalists are indeed very weak......
