Louis R. Chênevert of United Technologies. He apologized after a subsidiary pleaded guilty to illegally exporting technology.
As part of a settlement with the Justice and State Departments, the military contractor, the Canadian subsidiary and another American subsidiary agreed to pay more than $75 million to the departments for making false statements to federal authorities.
The helicopter, known as the Z-10, seats two people and is designed mainly to attack tanks, armored vehicles and other ground forces. It is being mass produced in China.

Speaking of which, they teach their kids there that the "West" is infantile and only thinks in their short term gains and not the long term strategic picture (greed). And this proves them right.
United Technologies was the 6th largest political donor during the last election. Does that answer the question?
God damn traitors
They'll sell anything just to make a quick buck,but other times corporate ceo's tend to be communist themselves and see China as the last major communist power besides Cuba and NK.Corporate leaders can still be communist anti-western and still own a million/billion dollar company.
And that 75 Mil was a drop in the bucket - In the end the company turned a profit and nobody went to jail.another American subsidiary agreed to pay more than $75 million to the departments for making false statements to federal authorities.
You're not at war with China, how can it be treason?
Kill

No, try again.
LOL ok then educate me.
AFAIK There's an Embargo on Military technology to China by Canada, not to sure about the States, but I know after Tianaman Square Massacre, Military Embargo was enacted to prevent sales of any weapon related technology to China. Please feel free to correct me if anyone knows for sure.
That makes it illegal, it doesn't make it tantamount to treason, however.
