Summary
This document is 'Appendix 2' of a larger report, likely from the House Oversight Committee, detailing Chinese influence activities globally. It outlines the CCP's strategy of using 'soft power' (research centers, media, university ties) and economic leverage to suppress criticism and penetrate democratic institutions in countries including Australia, Canada, and the UK. The text highlights the asymmetry of China closing its own borders to influence while exploiting the openness of democratic systems abroad.
