Rockefeller Foundation Bankrolls COVID-19 Commission Led by Beijing Sympathizer

One of the largest charitable foundations in the country has contributed $300,000 to a coronavirus commission formed by a Columbia University economist who advised a Chinese government planning commission and called the United States the "greatest threat" to global peace.
The Rockefeller Foundation is one of two backers of the Lancet COVID-19 Commission, a collaboration between the British medical journal and Jeffrey Sachs, a prominent liberal economist who progressive groups pushed for a spot in the Biden administration.
The commission says its goal is to develop recommendations for fighting the virus and addressing the economic fallout from the pandemic. But the pro-Beijing views of Sachs and others involved could make it possible for China to influence the commission as it plans to advise governments and United Nations institutions.
The commission brings together some of the most significant players on the global health stage. With its $5 billion endowment, Rockefeller funds numerous global health initiatives, and Lancet is considered one of the world’s premier medical journals. Sachs maintains ties to the World Health Organization and United Nations, where he served as an adviser through 2018.
The commission also receives funding from the Nizami Ganjavi International Center, an Azerbaijan-based think tank that a Chinese ambassador has praised for its "close cooperation" with Beijing.
Sachs, who also serves as chairman of the commission, has a long history of criticizing U.S. foreign policy and defending China.
A network of advocacy groups sent a letter to Columbia University president Lee Bollinger in February accusing Sachs of downplaying China’s genocide against Uyghur Muslims and criticizing democracy movements in Hong Kong and Taiwan. Sachs had accused the United States in an interview of trying to "stir unrest" by promoting democracy protests in Hong Kong.
