Host: Yin Khvat A Taiwanese army colonel accused of spying for China sent shockwaves through Taiwan society in November. Taiwan Talks host Yin Khvat discusses defense and cognitive warfare with Kitsch Liao, an assistant director at Atlantic Council’s Global China Hub. In this wide-ranging interview, Liao argues Taiwanese must educate themselves about what life would be like post a CCP invasion and how ASEAN countries could help the CCP practice with advanced U.S. weaponry. Prior to joining the Atlantic Council, Liao worked in the US Congress, in diplomatic postings, the US defense department, and with the Australian Strategic Policy Institute and Janes in areas including Taiwan’s order of battle, and China’s chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear capability.
