It is a real and pressing and urgent threat to our way of life when our municipalities, our universities, private companies, community organizations, and political parties can be co-opted and pushed and pulled to serve the interests of a foreign powerinterests and values that are hostile to our own, Genuis told Jan Jekielek on Epoch Times American Thought Leaders.
As the Conservative Partys shadow minister for international development and human rights and a member of the Inter-Parliamentary Alliance on China, Genuis says theres a need for more awareness about the Chinese regimes covert influence operations in every country, at every level.
Theres a need for a broader recognition of the risk a recognition of the fact that elites at every level are subject to efforts at this kind of co-opting, whether its school boards, small town mayors, university presidents, individual members of parliamenttheres a lot of attempt at this kind of influence, he said.
