This panel delves into the mechanisms of China’s international media operations—including the use of censorship, disinformation, and the recruitment of foreign influencers. Drawing lessons from Taiwan’s democratic resilience, the discussion addresses how Europe can strengthen its own defenses against foreign influence.
