Cognitive Warfare as Part of Society: Never-Ending Battle for Minds

Addressing vulnerability and promoting security
Jun 29, 2023 | Hague Centre for Strategic Studies

In this paper for the Hague Centre for Strategic Studies, Robin Burda examines the experiences of Czechia and Ukraine in dealing with Cognitive Warfare (CW) and the implications for the EU and NATO. He highlights the challenges faced by liberal democracies, which have their “hands tied” against CW threats. Cooperation and support of proven policies against CW are crucial for the continued strength of the EU and NATO. The paper emphasises the importance of each nation addressing CW within its own society, while encouraging the EU and NATO to enforce necessary defensive measures. A balance between improving democracy and regulating malign influences in media and society is essential.
