Epstein-Linked Prince Andrew Inaugurated 1000th Chinese Propaganda Group, Accompanied by Xi Jinping
Prince Andrew christened a Confucius Institute and extolled the controversial Chinese government-funded propaganda fronts while also visiting a British company collaborating on China's exploitative One Belt One Road initiative - with all events occurring alongside President Xi Jinping in 2015. Prince Andrew, who "lobbied" the U.S. government to grant Jeffrey Epstein a lighter sentence and is the subject of intense speculation, inaugurated a Confucius Classroom alongside President Xi Jinping in 2015, praising the propaganda-ridden initiative as a boon for collaboration. However, Confucius Classrooms, the primary school complement to college-level Confucius Institutes, have been identified by Members of the British Parliament as "an endeavor by the Chinese Communist Party to spread its propaganda and suppress its critics beyond its borders" rife with espionage and intellectual property theft. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) itself has confirmed these charges, with a high-ranking apparatchik disclosing Confucius Institutes to an "important part of China's overseas propaganda set-up."
The Propaganda Prince. A Confucius Classroom was launched in the British Crown Dependency of Jersey, and Prince Andrew unveiled its dedicatory plaque alongside President Xi Jinping in 2015. The grand opening - part of Xi's state visit to the United Kingdom - was momentous, as the institute, placed at the state-funded Hautlieu School, represented Jersey's first Confucius Institute. It also was the record-breaking 1,000th Confucius Institute to open worldwide. That means Prince Andrew wasn't merely celebrating the launch of a CCP propaganda front aimed at schoolchildren as young as 14: he was extolling their extensive, global reach. As recounted by state-run media outlet China Daily, Prince Andrew even hailed the virtues of Confucius Institutes: "Prince Andrew, the Duke of York, who accompanied Xi to the event, said it was a pleasure to support the institutes and classrooms because "China is a very, very important country". "By learning the language, understanding the culture and civilization, we can make better use of our skills in order to work together in the future," he said." Professing a similar message, Prince Andrew also spoke at the opening ceremony where several other high-level CCP apparatchiks were in attendance.
One Belt, One Royal Road. Prince Andrew also spearheaded a visit to British satellite telecommunications firm Inmarsat alongside Xi in celebration of the company's "close" and "exclusive strategic relationship" with the Chinese government. The visit served "to understand how Inmarsat is able to uniquely contribute to President Xi's One Belt One Road" via its mobile satellite broadband communications connectivity. Prince Andrew, who had been a financial supporter of the company prior to his unearthed Epstein connections, extended his royal seal of approval to Inmarsat's collaboration with the CCP, visiting the company's London headquarters alongside its Chief Executive Officer, Chairman, and former Chief Secretary to the Treasury Greg Hands. One Belt One Road, however, is the lynchpin of the CCP's quest for global economic and political hegemony, chiefly by making countries subservient through infrastructure investment laden with debt-trap diplomacy. By enticing developing countries with heaping infrastructure and technology investment, even weening some Western nations off their U.S. ties, the CCP seeks to reorient the global economy by placing itself as the center. It's no coincidence, therefore, that most countries default on these loans, granting the CCP access, leverage, and control to the projects they initiate - all the while gobbling up pre-existing institutions and infrastructure.

"SECRET 'CIA-FUNDED' GROUP [Le Cercle] LINKED TO UK MINISTERS" and South Africa
https://www.declassifieduk.org/secret-cia-funded-group-linked-to-uk-ministers/
9 DECEMBER 2021
Excerpts below
The group, known as Le Cercle, was described by former Conservative minister Alan Clark in his diaries as "a right-wing think (or rather thought) tank, funded by the CIA, which churns Cold War concepts around".
Le Cercle has existed since the 1950s but has no public presence, and has never revealed its funders. Even the group's existence is only occasionally disclosed. It is unclear how influential Le Cercle - which is believed to meet twice a year, once in Washington DC and once elsewhere - actually is.
Declassified has found that eight current Conservative parliamentarians are associated with the group. Two current ministers - business secretary Kwasi Kwarteng and his deputy minister Greg Hands - have been funded by Le Cercle.
Rory Stewart, who served as a justice minister under Theresa May, was previously chair of Le Cercle.
Several high-profile US figures are also linked to the group. US Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, who sat on America's most powerful court from 1986 until his death in 2016, attended at least one Le Cercle meeting while sitting on the court.
Current education secretary Nadhim Zahawi, a former business minister, is another previous chair of Le Cercle.
Zahawi and Stewart both claim, despite their senior roles in Le Cercle, that they don't know how the networking group is funded. A "Whitehall security source" told the Daily Telegraph that Stewart was an MI6 officer before he entered politics.
Le Cercle was founded in the 1950s by conservative French prime minister Antoine Pinay, and Konrad Adenauer, the former German Chancellor. Described as "one of the most influential, secretive, and...exclusive political clubs in the West", it is also known as the Pinay Cercle.
The only significant article on Le Cercle published in the British press appeared in the Independent in 1997. It named [Former foreign minister Alan] Duncan, then a Conservative MP, as one of the group's "leading political lights".
Duncan, minister for Europe and the Americas from 2016-19, is a former oil trader with close links to the UK's allied regimes in the Gulf.
He was the key government official involved in evicting Julian Assange from the Ecuadorian embassy in 2019. Declassified last week revealed that Duncan is a 40-year "good friend" of Lord Chief Justice Ian Burnett, the judge who will soon decide Julian Assange's fate in his extradition case.
Attendees at Le Cercle meetings have included the former US director of national intelligence, John Negroponte, former US national security advisers Henry Kissinger and John Bolton, as well as the former US defence secretary Donald Rumsfeld.
Margaret Thatcher is also listed as a one-time attendee. It is not known if any of these political figures attended while in post.
"American regulars" were said to include two directors of the CIA: William Colby, who headed the agency from 1973-76, and William J. Casey, who was director from 1981-87.
Le Cercle's current political activities are unclear. South African researcher Hennie van Vuuren found declassified documents in Pretoria which showed Le Cercle "had support for apartheid South Africa at the top of their agenda".
The apartheid regime, he found, "helped fund the organisation, and hosted several meetings."
