Liberal billionaire Bill Gates on Thursday announced a $50 million collaboration with a notorious Chinese Communist Party-controlled university that conducts research for the nation’s military.

Gates unveiled the partnership during a speech in Beijing, which the government-run propaganda outlet Global Times quickly covered thanks to a transcript Gates shared with the rag. The $50 million from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation will fund a research partnership with Tsinghua University, which holds “secret-level security credentials” for classified military research, trains students for China’s nuclear weapons program, and has allegedly carried out cyberattacks for the Chinese government, according to the Australian Strategic Policy Institute. The university, from which Chinese president Xi Jinping graduated in 2002 with a degree in Marxist theory, is also funded by China’s Ministry of Education and maintains a “CCP Committee” that keeps the school “in accordance with President Xi’s hopes.”
