Another Chinese Propaganda Outpost for Italy
Italy now hosts three of China’s seven “international communication centers” operating abroad, a signature Xi Jinping initiative to shape the country’s image globally.

In December 2017, Italian news agency AdnKronos and Xinhua News Agency (新華社) signed a cooperation agreement during the fourth World Internet Conference (世界互聯網大會) in Wuzhen, Zhejiang Province. According to a report by PrimaOnline, the agreement covered news exchange, video production, and digital interconnection between the agencies.
