The conservative supervisory authority calls for a republican organization, which took over $ 1 million Soros Network’s Open Society Action Fund “Break his relationship.”
Open Society Action Fund, usually known for their donation for leftist causes both in the United States and abroad, lifted $ 1.67 million The fund described the subsidy as “supporting scholarship holders on building abilities for the Diaspora community of East Asia”.
The GOP balanced group claims that the money was to be supported by the persecuted Ujgurs in China.
The National Legal and Political Center meant an unusual couple supported by Soros Republican organization.
“I am writing to ask that the International Republican Institute (IRI) break his relations with the so -called open society fund and all other entities founded and/or financed by George Soros” National Legal and Political Center Peter Peter Flaherty said in a letter on Thursday to the international chairman of the Republican Institute Dream. and SullivanR-Alaska.
The letter, for the first time divided from Daily Signal, asks the GOP Group to “make a public commitment to refrain from further staining or accepting subsidies of groups related to Soros or from the administration of vehicles of other left -wing billionaires.”
“In contrast to its adoption of” open society “, Soros and many groups and projects he finances, tries to undermine the free expression, individual rights, law -abiding and democratic norms,” continued the letter of Flaherta. “[International Republican Institute] He compromises his own mission, assuming support from Soros entities, which also support government censorship, illegal mass immigration, “Lawfare” and socialism. “
The Open Society Action Fund is 501 (C) 4 to the foundations of Open Society, which is classified as an educational organization 501 (C) (3). The letter notes that the open society foundations have been financed by extremely left -wing organizations such as Undivided project and Moveon.
He still notes that Alex Soros is now organizing and swore to be “much more political” than his father.
According to the International Republican Institute, the subsidy consisted in supporting the Uyghur in China, which is in line with GOP policy and Trump administration.
“Iri received a one -time subsidy for the support of persecuted Uvelchums in China, whose repulsive treatment of Uvelcians was recognized as genocide by the first administration of Trump,” spokesman for the International Republican Institute Daily Signal said.
“The project in question is closed; Iri does not cooperate [Open Society Foundations] And he is not going to do it again, “the institute spokesman continued.” Iri was sanctioned by the Chinese communist party due to the unwavering support for religious freedom in China and we will never defend the cause of freedom in the face of totalitarian CCP. “
The International Republican Institute was founded in the 1980s in response to the call of the then President Ronald Reagan to establish infrastructure for democracy around the world during the Cold War. Institute’s experts cooperate with countries on the development of democracy.
A spokesman for open foundations of society said that the organization is not in line with any political party.

Flaherty had questions about the specific purpose of the subsidy.
“I find relief that this is a one -time acceptance of the subsidy,” said Flaherty for Daily Signal. “Uyghurs are certainly a dignified reason. But if there was a subsidy, why didn’t he say it in the open society database? There is something that is not above the board in all this.”
