The CIA has initiated a new campaign aimed at recruiting Chinese military officers to act as informants for the United States. This effort includes the release of a series of propaganda videos designed to appeal to Chinese officials, encouraging them to provide intelligence on the Chinese Communist Party and its operations. Analysts are questioning the effectiveness of these videos as recruitment tools amid ongoing purges within Beijing. Despite challenges, the CIA is doubling its efforts to re-establish a spy network in China, focusing on gathering critical information from military personnel.
