From: Robert Lawrence Kuhn Sent: 9/25/2017 7:06:34 AM To: jeffrey E. [[email protected]] Subject: Radical Breakthroughs - Kuhn Attachments: BBC World News - Kuhn - China, North Korea Bomb, BRICS Summit - 09_03_17.pdf; Untitled attachment 485043.htm; BBC World News - Kuhn - Mynamar Rohingya Refugees - China-Mynamar - 09_14 17.pdf; Untitled attachment 485046.htm Importance: — High Dear Jeffrey: Trust all is well. We are in full pre-production of our “Radical Breakthroughs” series/season for Closer To Truth. We expect to have a complete production plan, with contributors, locations and schedule, by mid/late November - when (coincidentally) I will be back in NY. My next email will add detail, including first (rough) outlines of the first two episodes. I’ll be copying the producer/director of Closer To Truth, as | will from now on with all reports/communications related to the content of the series. Whenever we want to communicate privately, about the series/grant or anything else, please use a separate email (or respond to this one). Iam in Santa Monica for two weeks, then Beijing for the big Party Congress. I may need to stay until after Trump’s (supposed) visit. Attached are my two recent BBC commentaries on China (N.Korea bomb and Myanmar refugees). Always available to Skype. I am truly excited about the series - nothing like it, could have impact - and I deeply appreciate your generosity/support, confidence and trust. Take care and warm regards, Robert

Robert Kuhn email referencing Trump‑Xi summit, Syria strike, and moderating China‑Israel tech forum

Robert Kuhn email referencing Trump‑Xi summit, Syria strike, and moderating China‑Israel tech forum The passage hints at a possible back‑channel interaction between a US academic (Robert Kuhn) and the governments of China and Israel, including a meeting with the Baidu CEO during a high‑profile diplomatic anniversary. While it provides names, dates, and a context (Trump‑Xi summit, Syria strike), there is no concrete evidence of wrongdoing or financial flow, limiting its immediate investigative value. However, the connection of a US‑based foundation to foreign officials could merit follow‑up. Key insights: Kuhn traveled to China for a month and moderated a discussion between the Chinese PM and Baidu CEO at the request of Chinese and Israeli governments.; Email sent shortly after the Trump‑Xi summit and a U.S. strike in Syria, suggesting a timing link to high‑level diplomatic events.; Kuhn mentions the Kuhn Foundation, a private operating foundation supporting the Closer To Truth project, with IRS tax‑exempt status attached.
