July 1st, 1983 41 years ago

The Ministry of State Security was formed as China's main body for intelligence and counterintelligence. This agency emerged from the need to consolidate and enhance national security measures during a time of reform and modernization under Deng Xiaoping’s leadership. Its creation aimed to better address both internal and external security challenges facing the People's Republic of China. The Ministry became crucial for shaping intelligence operations including espionage and counterespionage that relate to issues of national security.
