CSIS removed this content from its website in July 2024 after the Justice Department charged Sue Mi Terry with alleged violations of the Foreign Agents Registration Act. The content was archived pending resolution of the charges. In October 2026, the Justice Department reached an agreement with Terry to dismiss the charges, provided she complies with its terms. CSIS has since restored the content to its website.
