Should the Arab League Establish a Unified Cybersecurity and Disinformation Defence Bloc to Counter Foreign Influence Operations Targeting Member States?
As cyberattacks and coordinated disinformation campaigns become increasingly sophisticated, Arab states face growing challenges to their national security, political stability, and digital sovereignty. Foreign influence operations targeting critical infrastructure, elections, financial systems, and public opinion have highlighted the need for stronger regional cooperation.
Delegates of the Arab League will examine whether the establishment of a unified cybersecurity and disinformation defence bloc can enhance collective resilience while respecting national sovereignty, intelligence-sharing limitations, and the diverse security priorities of member states.
