来源:美国犹太国家安全研究所国家安全摘要In its report released this month, the Jewish Institute for National Security of America argues that “at minimum, institutions of higher education that operate branch campuses in Qatar or other designated high-risk jurisdictions … should be required to certify the absence of foreign-state control, access, or preferential rights as a condition of receiving federal research and development awards.”
The nonpartisan institute, whose founders and advisers have included prominent neo-conservatives such as Richard Perle and Douglas Feith, bases its report on nearly 900 pages of documents laying out Qatar’s relationships with two leading American universities — Georgetown and Northwestern.
Both universities have declined to comment on the report in response to questions from reporters, including campus newspapers the Daily Northwestern and the Georgetown Voice.
The documents, never before public, detail framework agreements, governance charters, intellectual property provisions, memoranda of understanding, confidentiality agreements, and the text of legal instruments governing the relationships, the report says.
Those documents, it says, “reveal the government of Qatar’s attempts to advance its own national security interests through the educational partnerships it has purchased.”
“It is clear from the documents that Qatar uses American education institutions as instruments of its foreign policy strategy funding politicized research on Islamophobia, acquiring access to intellectual property rights, and having access to the American credentialing system,” the report reads.
The 15-page report says the documents also show that Qatar “is trying to obscure its attempts to control U.S. universities, presenting the arrangement as a philanthropic investment in American academic excellence abroad.”
