China’s Influence in the Nordic – Baltic Information Environment: Denmark and Lithuania

This report is aimed at understanding China’s influence in the Nordic-Baltic region, by undertaking an analysis of China’s communication tactics and tools, its strategic narratives and their prevalence in public discourse in the region, illustrated by two country case studies. This is important because, for years, China has employed various techniques to advance its interests worldwide, from classic information operations to suppression of critical voices, and continues to expand its state-controlled media footprint in the global information environment.
