Multilateral Defense Network To Counter China's Influence
The Chinese Communist Party has upgraded its cognitive warfare capabilities, using AI-enabled influence campaigns to exploit fears of US abandonment. In response, a report proposes a multilateral cognitive warfare defense network between the United States, Japan, and Taiwan. The network would integrate the strengths of Taiwan and Japan, with US support, to move from isolated, reactive responses to coordinated early warning and proactive defense. This initiative was reported by an unknown source.
