Summary
This page from a House Oversight Committee report details Chinese foreign influence operations through think tanks in the United States. It highlights the efforts of officials like 'Fu' and C.H. Tung to cultivate relationships with US scholars to advance Chinese government narratives, specifically mentioning the establishment of the Institute for China-America Studies (ICAS) in Washington, DC, in 2015. The document notes that while ICAS claims to be a bridge for perception, it is funded by Chinese government-supported entities and aligns with President Xi Jinping's directive for think tanks to 'go global.'
