The U.S. Department of Defense has labeled Confucius Institutes as national security threats, claiming they operate under various names in universities. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth announced that 80 such organizations were identified across 30 universities, allegedly aiming to steal intellectual property and influence students. The Pentagon has been working to dismantle these entities over the past two months. Hegseth's statements come amid ongoing tensions between the U.S. and China regarding national security and influence in American institutions. However, no specific details about the universities or organizations involved were provided.
