Chinese Embassy in Ghana

Written by Editors on February 10, 2026.

The Embassy of the People’s Republic of China in the Republic of Ghana (中華人民共和國駐加納共和國大使館) is the primary diplomatic mission representing Beijing’s interests in Accra. Following the establishment of diplomatic relations in 1960 and their restoration in 1972, the embassy has overseen the elevation of bilateral ties to a “Strategic Partnership” as of 2024. The mission actively coordinates with local groups like the Ghana–China Friendship Association (加納—中國友好協會) to promote “friendship” (友好)—a term in CCP official discourse that generally entails the accommodating of China’s interests in relationships. The embassy’s economic and commercial office manages significant infrastructure and energy projects—such as the Bui Hydroelectric Power Station and the $2 billion Sinohydro bauxite-for-infrastructure deal—ensuring that local development aligns with Beijing’s broader strategic objectives in West Africa.

The embassy’s functions include promoting bilateral political dialogue, economic and trade cooperation, cultural exchanges, and consular services. In recent years, China-Iceland relations have maintained cooperation in areas including Arctic affairs, clean energy, and fisheries. The embassy disseminates diplomatic information through its official website and social media platforms, advancing mutually beneficial cooperation under the Belt and Road Initiative framework.

China Film Administration

Written by Editors on February 8, 2026.

The China Film Administration (國家電影局) was officially established on April 16, 2018, as part of institutional reforms that transferred film regulation from the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television (SARFT) to direct control of the Chinese Communist Party’s Central Propaganda Department. It is responsible for reviewing and approving all films for release in China, dictating “whether, when, and how a movie gets released.” China’s official Xinhua New Agency reported in 2018 that the restructuring would “strengthen the Party’s overall leadership” in ideological sectors and advance “cultural confidence.”

Chinese Embassy in Russia

Written by Editors on February 7, 2026.

The Embassy of the People’s Republic of China in the Russian Federation is located at 6 Druzhby Street in Moscow’s Ramenki District and serves as China’s primary diplomatic mission in Russia. The embassy operates under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and plays a key role in managing bilateral relations between Beijing and Moscow, including coordinating propaganda and media cooperation activities. The current ambassador is Zhang Hanhui (張漢暉), who regularly hosts events with Russian government officials and media representatives to promote what the CCP frames as generational “friendship” between the two countries. The embassy actively facilitates Chinese state media operations in Russia and organizes propaganda activities including media receptions, cultural events, and coordination meetings designed to “lay a solid public opinion foundation” for China-Russia strategic partnership while “combating false information” — CCP terminology for countering narratives critical of Chinese or Russian government policies.

Chinese Embassy in Algeria

Written by Editors on February 6, 2026.

The Chinese Embassy in Algeria is China’s diplomatic mission in Algiers, representing the People’s Republic of China and managing bilateral relations between the two countries. The embassy promotes political, economic, and cultural cooperation within what the two sides have characterized as a “comprehensive strategic partnership” — the first such designation between China and an Arab nation, established in 2014. The mission actively engages with Algerian government officials, state media, and civil society organizations. The embassy places particular emphasis on media engagement, stressing the role of journalism in strengthening bilateral relations and shaping public perceptions of China. Embassy activities include organizing cultural exchanges, facilitating business delegations, and promoting Chinese development initiatives. The relationship traces back to China’s early support for Algeria’s independence movement in the 1950s, when Beijing provided arms and recognition to the Front de Libération Nationale, establishing a pattern of strategic engagement that has persisted for over six decades.

Ministry of Finance of the People’s Republic of China

Written by Editors on February 2, 2026.

The Ministry of Finance (MOF) is a cabinet-level constituent department of the State Council responsible for China’s fiscal policy, national budget management, and tax legislation. Established in 1949, it functions as the central treasury, managing state revenues, government expenditure, and the issuance of domestic and external debt. Unlike its counterparts in some Western nations, the MOF shares macroeconomic management with the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) and state-owned industry oversight with the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC). A critical role of the MOF is serving as the ultimate shareholder and supervisor of major state-run financial conglomerates.

China International Communication Center

Written by Editors on February 2, 2026.

The China International Communication Center, established in November 1993 and operational by April 1994, functions as a key external propaganda institution now under the Central Propaganda Department of the Chinese Communist Party. Originally subordinate to the State Council Information Office, with the Ministry of Finance (财政部) exercising ownership rights, the center evolved into a comprehensive international communications organization operating 26 overseas branches across 14 countries. Its multifaceted operations include publishing books and periodicals in over 40 languages, producing multimedia content, maintaining government websites including China Human Rights Network (中国人权网) and China Xinjiang Network (中国新疆网), organizing cultural exchanges, and publishing multilingual urban lifestyle magazines like “That’s China” (城市漫步). Following organizational restructuring, CICC has become instrumental in advancing Beijing’s global messaging strategy, with President Xi Jinping, according to state media reports from the organization’s 70th anniversary in 2019, setting expectations for its development into “a world-class, comprehensive international communication institution” (世界一流的综合性国际传播机构) to shape international perceptions of China through carefully coordinated narrative management across traditional and digital platforms.

Yangjiang Municipal People’s Government

Written by Editors on February 2, 2026.

The Yangjiang Municipal Government (陽江市人民政府) is the prefecture-level administrative authority for Yangjiang (陽江), a coastal city of approximately 2.5 million in Guangdong Province. The municipality actively markets itself as a “Maritime Silk Road Famous City” (海絲名城), leveraging the ancient “Nanhai No. 1” (南海一號) shipwreck and local maritime heritage sites as cultural assets for state-directed development initiatives. The government hosted China Media Group’s December 2025 Silk Road Television Community Summit, providing logistical support and curated historical tours for international media delegations. Yangjiang’s economy centers on manufacturing, particularly wind energy equipment and marine engineering, while local authorities emphasize the city’s historical role in maritime trade routes within official promotional materials and international engagement activities.

The Propaganda Department of the Chinese Communist Party’s Yunnan Provincial Committee serves as the primary ideological oversight body for the province, controlling all state media operations including its flagship publication, Yunnan Daily (云南日报). Based in Kunming, the provincial capital, the department executes propaganda directives from both central party headquarters and provincial leadership to ensure “correct” political messaging across all local media platforms. The department regulates information dissemination, shapes public discourse, orchestrates propaganda initiatives, and supervises cultural activities throughout Yunnan Province — guaranteeing that all communication channels uniformly promote party doctrine and reinforce official policy positions.
