Gu is a dual citizen and does not have to give up the US passport.

The corporations (including the US ones) that sponsored her pay her the money.

She didn't answer the question about her american citizenship. China doesn't allow dual citizenship.

You can have two passports without a dual citizenship.

She won’t answer this question ever. She wants to retain her US citizenship so she can study/ live here easily. If she admits to keeping US citizenship alongside Chinese citizenship then she is admitting to special treatment by the Chinese government and that won’t go well with the general public in China. If she gives up her US citizenship then she has no escape from the CCP. She has chosen this path and has to live with herself.

Yeah, I get her position on this. She doesn’t want to live in China but can’t admit it because the $$ it would cost her in China. She doesn’t want to give up US citizenship, say the wrong thing then you end up like the tennis player and all this business tycoons….the extra $$ isn’t worth that outcome.

I assure you she’s happy. Meanwhile you’re letting a teenaged snow skier live in your head rent free. Seek therapy!

She can keep her dual citizenship if Chinese government allows. She also represent China now. Unless Chinese government tells her that she cannot ski for China, she hasn’t broken any law in the US. She is making a lots of money now by sponsoring products Red bulls, GM,LV, etc, more than she would make if she won gold for the US.

She doesn't really owe you an answer. The world is full of people with a veritable deck of passports who move easily between countries. It's none of your business.

For the love of god, people, learn the difference between a dual citizen and a person with two citizenships.

If the US fast-tracked Tanith Belbin's application for the American citizenship beyond all normal timelines so that she can represent the US at the Olympics, then China can bend the rules for Gu.

Doesn’t this happen all the time in the World Cup? Half of the French team is from various African nations.

LOL we are actually using her situation as a ethics topic for our SE Asian homeschool group with a variety of nationalities. It is really interesting to facilitate teens and tweens as they think through their own values and compare them to Gu’s. I have been impressed at the nuance they bring to the conversation. Really large dollar figures obviously affect everyone’s answers. But the price to sell out is always an interesting question. Most of the kids peg it to the cost of caring for their families. More of the kids are disturbed by not knowing who her dad is then the caving to CCP.

It happens more often than you think. My DC was an Elite Olympic sport athlete, still holds several college records and had a few friends who parents where from another country. They got dual citizenship for the chance to compete, wasnt as good as my DC. DC finished top 10 in trials / NCAA, but never made an Olympic team.

Shes making money off a country currently committing ethnic cleansing sponsored by the state. They only make triangles as obtuse as you within the realm of non-euclidean geometry.

Come back to talk when you have given away $100 million $$ to fight ethnic cleansing in the world. And excuse me, the entire western civilization is built on ethnic cleansing. So unless you are native American, you are a direct beneficiary of exactly that.

I find that conservatives crying crocodile tears over Uyghurs hypocritical given their track record with wanting to give aid and comfort to other Muslim refugee work groups such as Afghani refufees

China is trying to control Afghanistan. They will ultimately fail like all great Empires have failed in the past!
