‘Five Eyes’ on Xi:

Whither the Intelligence Alliance?

The Free World’s most important intelligence alliance is the major Anglophone nations’ “Five Eyes” partnership. Through it, the United States, Great Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand freely share their most sensitive secrets concerning existing and emerging threats. Of paramount importance at the moment are those emanating from the Chinese Communist Party’s dictator, Xi Jinping.

After all, even open-source intelligence indicates that Xi has played a direct role in the “strategic arson” that has: precipitated conflagrations in Ukraine and the Middle East; contributed materially to the ongoing coup in South Korea; encouraged an impending conflict involving Venezuela and Guyana; and set the stage for direct assaults by the PRC against, perhaps among others in the Pacific, Taiwan, the Philippines and even the United States.

Under these circumstances, it is impossible to overstate the importance of accurate and timely “situational awareness” among those most likely to resist the principal perpetrator of what can properly be described as “World War Xi.”

Consequently, the next Committee on the Present Danger: Webinar taking place from 1-2:15 p.m. ET on Friday, January 10^th and entitled, “‘Five Eyes’ on Xi: Whither the Intelligence Alliance?” will address political developments in Washington, London, Ottawa, Canberra and Wellington and their strategic implications. It will also consider whether and, if so, how the Five Eyes arrangement might be strengthened without compromising critical “sources and methods.”
