• Risky Business: How Chinese Companies Use Hong Kong to Evade US Sanctions

  The Chinese Communist Party is using Hong Kong as a financial gateway to evade the United States’ sanctions and funnel global investment to mainland companies. Chinese firms increasingly list themselves on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, often to avoid the scrutiny required by US markets. This means that American investors may be unknowingly funding sanctioned entities or firms tied to human rights abuses. Americans could therefore face undue legal and reputational risks, especially as US-China tensions grow.Join Hudson for an event examining new research about how Beijing exploits Hong Kong’s unique position and why economic and political developments on the island matter for US policymakers and the interests of Americans.

• Defending in Outer Space: A Conversation with Congressman Jeff Crank

But Russia and China have been actively developing and deploying weapons to target US and allied assets in space.Join Hudson Senior Fellow Rebeccah L. Heinrichs, the director of Hudson’s Keystone Defense Initiative, and Congressman Jeff Crank (R-CO), a member of the House Armed Services Committee, for a conversation about the threats to American satellites and the policies and programs necessary to defend US interests in space.
