Kurt Campbell Kurt Campbell, assistant secretary of state for Asia and the Pacific under Obama.
According to the Washington Free Beacon, Kurt Campbell, the incoming “Asia policy czar” in the Biden administration, was previously the head of a nonprofit foundation that received front-line support from the Communist Party’s United Front Work Department. Kurt Campbell was previously the head of a nonprofit foundation that received funding from the Communist Party’s United Front Work Organization and worked with the Confucius Institute, which serves as a Communist mission to China.
The Washington Free Beacon exposed Kurt Campbell in detail in a recent article. Kurt Campbell’s involvement with the CCP was detailed in a recent article in the Washington Free Beacon. According to the article, Kurt Campbell is a member of the Chinese Communist Party. Kurt Campbell, a former assistant secretary of state under the Obama administration and a businessman, is listed as vice chairman of the board of directors of the U.S.-China Strong Foundation until August 2020. He is also a businessman.
According to State Department and Justice Department records, the U.S.-China Strong Foundation is ostensibly a nonprofit organization that promotes student language exchanges between the United States and China, but its leaders include prominent members of the Communist Party’s Overseas Propaganda Front (United Front Work Department).
Campbell was scheduled to serve as chief coordinator for Asia policy on Biden’s National Security Council, but his leadership role at the U.S.-China Strong Foundation has raised concerns in Washington about Chinese Communist hawks. The foundation sings the praises of the Chinese military and the Communist Party’s Belt and Road project, which is seen by U.S. officials as a threat to national security.
“The Strong America Foundation has also established a partnership with the Confucius Institute USA. The Confucius Institute USA Center, an educational nonprofit organization, was designated as a foreign mission by the Trump administration’s State Department in August 2020 on the grounds that it promotes the Communist Party’s propaganda efforts to the academic community worldwide.
In August 2017, the Strong America Foundation celebrated the 90th anniversary of the CCP’s military on its Twitter account and urged its followers to read Xi Jinping‘s commemorative speech.
The foundation has also posted several messages praising the Communist Party’s “One Belt, One Road” initiative.
Anders Corr, an intelligence analyst and publisher of the Journal of Political Risk, said that the Chinese Communist Party’s “One Belt, One Road” message has been published. Anders Corr, an intelligence analyst and publisher for the Journal of Political Risk, said, “These indicators suggest that the U.S.-China Strong Foundation may be a front organization (of the Chinese Communist Party) or heavily influenced by the CCP and is nothing less than a front organization (of the CCP).”
The U.S.-China Strong Foundation’s website appears to have disappeared from the interwebs in August 2020, and its phone number and email address are no longer available. However, the deposited version of the website still lists Campbell as vice chairman and a member of the company’s advisory board on Aug. 15, 2020. It is in the foundation’s most recent federal financial disclosure filed in 2019 that Campbell is listed as vice chairman.
The foundation is funded by Chinese-American businesswoman Florence Fang, who sits on the foundation’s board of directors and corporate leadership council. Fang is the honorary president of the San Francisco chapter of the National Association for China’s Peaceful Unification, an organization that promotes the Communist Party’s unification and control of Taiwan. Taiwan’s unification and control. According to the U.S. Department of State, the association is controlled by the Communist Party’s United Front Work Department.
Fang Li Bangqin’s name frequently appears in the CCP’s state-run media, including photos of meetings with Xi Jinping and other CCP leaders. Fang met with then-Chinese Communist Party Vice Premier Liu Yandong in 2017. Liu Yandong said their friendship began in the early 2000s, when Liu was head of the United Front Work Department.
Ronnie Chan, a Hong Kong billionaire and chairman of the Hang Lung Group, is also listed as a member of the U.S.-China Strong Foundation’s leadership council. As reported by the Washington Free Beacon in July 2020, Chan is a former Hong Kong government official and director of the China-United States Exchange Foundation, which is registered with the U.S. Department of State as a foreign agent of the Chinese government.
Other board members of the Foundation include Pin Ni, head of China’s Wanxiang Group USA, and Cindy Mi, head of a U.S.-China Education company, who reportedly fired teachers who taught about the Tiananmen Square massacre.
The U.S.-China Strong Foundation, formerly known as the 100,000 Strong Foundation, was established in 2013. “100,000 Strong was a private fundraising effort launched in 2010 by the Obama administration and the Chinese government to encourage 100,000 American students to travel to China to learn Mandarin Chinese through foreign language exchanges.
The student exchange program was led by Campbell, who was then Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs. Then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who was the Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs at the Time, was a member of the student body. On Jan. 24, 2013, then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton praised Campbell for advancing the program and credited him with helping to “deepen and strengthen our relationship with China and other countries in the region.
According to Campbell himself in an op-ed published in Politico, he left the State Department just weeks after being praised by Hillary and immediately founded the U.S.-China Tough Foundation as an independent nonprofit organization, which also received more than $1 million in seed funding from Bangqin Fang and the Ford Foundation.
While the foundation’s initial purpose appears to have been to support language exchange programs for American students in China, its work has also focused on promoting Chinese Culture in the United States to the point of promoting pro-communist policies.
The foundation also works with the Confucius Institute USA, and in 2018, the Foundation and the Confucius Institute USA co-hosted a symposium at the National Press Club on the theme “U.S.-China Educational Exchange: 40 Years of Engagement in Higher Education.” The event comes as U.S. federal agencies are beginning to crack down on Confucius Institutes on U.S. campuses.
Such groups, of which Campbell is a member, typically promote ‘engagement,’ ‘cooperation’ and ‘understanding’ between the U.S. and China,” said Cole of the Journal of Political Risk. ‘. Those sound like good words, but the Chinese Communist Party is using them as cover for infiltration operations.”
Campbell is not the first official in the Biden Administration to have an affair with the Chinese Communist Party. The Washington Free Beacon reported in December 2020 that Biden’s secretary of state, Antony Blinken, was a member of the Chinese Communist Party. As the Washington Free Beacon reported in December 2020, Biden’s Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s consulting firm, WestExec, helped U.S. universities raise money from China while circumventing Pentagon funding restrictions. As the Free Beacon reported in January, Biden’s nominee for deputy secretary of defense, Colin Kahl, has been a member of the National Security Council. As the Free Beacon reported in January, Biden’s nominee for deputy defense secretary, Colin Kahl, worked at a research institute in partnership with Peking University.
