“The Chinese state currently expends considerable resources to establish Confucius Institutes worldwide. Africa is no exception. These government-funded institutions promote Chinese language, culture, and understanding and serve as centers for outreach to local media, with the first Confucius Institute established in Kenya in 2005 at the University of Nairobi. These institutes resemble Western nonprofit educational institutions and find their homes within academic institutions, but they are funded and managed by the Chinese state. Confucius Institute personnel and instructors are selected and paid by the Chinese state.”
Markos Kounalakis, Spin Wars and Spy Games: Global Media and Intelligence Gathering

“Of course, in wartime, journalists, like other citizens, often have a legal responsibility to protect—and at times support—the efforts of their government. For journalists, regardless of their nationality, this usually takes the negative form of restrictions on reporting and dissemination of information, primarily on activities that would be construed or judicially interpreted as aiding or abetting an enemy.63 These restrictions include adhering to rules of engagement, not reporting troop movements, and following other strictures as determined by law and custom.”

“Humility is the foundation of all Christian virtue, because it is the opposite of pride, and pride”
Seraphim Slobodskoy, The Law of God: For Study at Home and School

“Foreign sovereigns usually regard any agent or flag bearer,36 whether an industry or a news organization, as representing the interests of the nation in which it is incorporated or where it has its headquarters, regardless of whether a formal or financial relationship exists.”
Markos Kounalakis, Spin Wars and Spy Games: Global Media and Intelligence Gathering

“Russia31 and China approach Western INGOs with the assumption that their performance and work product are directed by and directly serve the state. This assumption matches the assumption in the West that non-Western NGOs are surely engaged in state-sponsored and underwritten activities, and nearly always include intelligence gathering in their operations.”
Markos Kounalakis, Spin Wars and Spy Games: Global Media and Intelligence Gathering
