“#Biden’s gift to Beijing’s spies and propagandists<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

On one front, at least, President Biden is already giving Beijing a gift \u2014 even if that\u2019s not his motive. His \u201cNot Trump\u201d rule seems to be a higher priority than checking China\u2019s power: Why else nix the last president\u2019s mandate<\/a> requiring schools and universities to disclose any connections their foreign-exchange programs may have with the Beijing-controlled Confucius Institutes?<\/p>\n

The last president app<\/a>roved the order at the end of 2020, in response to growing concern from the FBI, State Department and Education Department that China\u2019s rulers use Confucius Institutes to steal American research and to promote Chinese Communist Party propaganda in US schools.<\/p>\n

Confucius Institutes operate in 75 American universities, officially offering cultural and language enrichment. And 500 K-12 schools across the country have a partnership with the Confucius Institute US Center in DC, which the State Department in August designated a \u201cforeign mission\u201d of Beijing.<\/p>\n

The now-canceled order didn\u2019t close any Confucius programs but merely kept them on federal radar. It followed news<\/a> in December that a score of top universities had failed to report at least $6.5 billion in funding from foreign sources including China. Maybe elite universities, eager to keep their funding secret, got the Biden team to kill the reporting requirement.<\/p>\n

But the result is to relax scrutiny of institutions that covertly spread \u201cCCP influence in academia,\u201d as Rep. Michael McCaul, the top Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, put it<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A sad thing for any president to do, whether to prevent embarrassment to domestic special interests or just wipe away another bit of his predecessor\u2019s legacy.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
