The U.S. Department of Defense has labeled Chinese-funded Confucius Institutes on university campuses as a national security threat, according to Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. Washington has long accused these institutes of being tools for Chinese propaganda and has taken steps to limit their influence. Hegseth claimed that 80 new propaganda cells have emerged in 30 universities, aiming to steal intellectual property and influence American students. The Pentagon has systematically dismantled these organizations over the past two months. The Chinese embassy in Washington has not yet commented on the matter.
