Updated our piece to include reference to a local Zambian news report, citing unnamed sources, that the Zambian government's actions were influenced by China, and a statement from Article 19 that points to "claims, many of them well-founded" that foreign pressure contributed to Zambia's decision.
On Thursday, the Zambian news site News Diggers! published a report citing “well-placed sources” that told the outlet “the Summit has actually been cancelled because the programme involves Taiwanese delegates who would potentially speak against China at a venue donated by the Chinese government.” And a statement issued Thursday by the advocacy organization Article 19 noted, “We are aware of claims, many of them well-founded, that pressure from foreign governments contributed to the Zambian government’s decision.”

Tech Policy Press has not been able to independently verify these reports. According to a database of Chinese foreign investments maintained at the College of William and Mary, China donated $30 million for construction of the Mulungushi International Conference Center, where RightsCon was to take place. It represents one of hundreds investments in Zambian infrastructure, which total nearly $13 billion over the past decade, according to the William and Mary researchers.
