Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

The cameras were manufactured by Huawei. The location at which the Migration Directorate installed the cameras is unknown.

Staff comments

1. This donation may have been committed on March 17, 2020, as part of a larger donation of supplies to address the COVID-19 pandemic from public and private Chinese organizations to Argentina (umbrella project captured via Record ID#91387). While it is likely Huawei's contribution to this larger donation is captured via Record ID#93422, inconsistencies in reporting around Record ID#93422 leave open the possibility that the donation in November 2020 is also under the umbrella of Record ID#91387. However, insofar as (1) Record ID#91387 is an umbrella and (2) sources indicate this donation came from the Chinese Embassy rather than Huawei itself, there is little risk of double counting.
