China uses a military tactic, information warfare, to its fullest potential—outside of wars. It has turned the strategy, which is used to disrupt enemy communication and intelligence, into a global campaign of disinformation to distract and confuse the rest of the world on what to think of the origin of COVID-19.

Join us for part 1 of a two-part interview to learn more about the inside workings of the CCP.
