The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

China's espionage campaign against the West is well-known; it's not surprising. With a vast network of both domestic and international intelligence apparatus, Beijing continues to undermine its rivals and strengthen its own strategic position while feigning ignorance. The West must continue on high alert and fight back against these harmful covert operations.

Pro-China narrative

Claims of Chinese espionage and intelligence gathering are unfounded, hypocritical and born from xenophobic insecurity. Afraid of China's continued rise, the West continues to accuse Beijing of numerous falsehoods while seeking to steal and spy itself. The West must stop deflecting and take some responsibility for its declining status and power in the world.
