Special ops leaders eye alarming levels of adversary collaboration

Adversaries of the United States are collaborating in combat and influence operations, prompting special operations leaders to increase their intervention abilities. Special Operations-Low-Intensity Conflict Assistant Secretary Christopher Maier emphasized the need to view competition and crisis as warfighting challenges. Special Operations Command Head Army Gen. Bryan Fenton highlighted the convergence of adversaries in multiple regions, with nation-state adversaries teaming up with non-state actors to achieve their goals. The Pentagon is shifting its focus to countering adversaries rather than counterterrorism and counterinsurgency, with a campaigning approach that links civil government resources with military assets and personnel. The approach allows for tailored responses to challenges and the ability to showcase new capabilities to deter conflict.
