Does a Companion passing through a city or stronghold activate that nation?

The designer confirmed that Aragorn appearing in Minas Tirith activates Gondor; the rulebook sets the stop requirement.

No. The Companion must end its move in a City or Stronghold of a nation it is able to activate. Strider activates only the North, Gandalf and Aragorn, Merry and Pippin can activate any nation, and a Town is not enough. If Strider turns into Aragorn in Minas Tirith, Gondor activates at once.
