A\u00a0Canadian\u00a0woman was arrested and accused of espionage while working as an intern in the operational headquarters of the\u00a0NATO\u00a0military alliance, Belgian authorities said Saturday.<\/p>\n

\n

Belgium\u2019s Federal Prosecutor\u2019s Office said it launched an espionage investigation after NATO\u2019s security services tipped off Belgium\u2019s military intelligence. Authorities then detained \u201ca Canadian citizen of Chinese origin\u201d on Friday, a day after raiding the suspect\u2019s home and workplace inside NATO\u2019s vast command center.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe is suspected of spying on behalf of a third country and of being a member of a criminal organization,\u201d the prosecutors said in a statement.<\/p>\n

The strategic headquarters of the Allied Powers, known as SHAPE, is located in the southern Belgian city of Mons near the French border. Military officials at SHAPE plan and command joint strategy, tactics and operations. The alliance\u2019s political headquarters is in Brussels, where ambassadors from member nations meet to discuss defense spending, drone incursions and cyber threats. NATO\u2019s Cyber Security Centre is based at SHAPE.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt this time, there is no indication that NATO or SHAPE operational readiness, command and control arrangements, or ongoing tasks have been adversely affected. SHAPE continues to fulfil its responsibilities without interruption,\u201d said Col. Martin L. O\u2019Donnell, a spokesperson for SHAPE.<\/p>\n

Both Canada and Belgium are members of the 32-nation military alliance that in 2021 labeled China a \u00a0security challenge\u201d alongside active threats in Russia and the Middle East.<\/p>\n

NATO leaders have said China is working to undermine global order, develop its military opaquely, and run destabilizing disinformation campaigns. They said that Beijing\u2019s goals and \u201cassertive behavior present systemic challenges to the rules-based international order and to areas relevant to alliance security.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Chinese government denounced the statement and said its military buildup was defensive.<\/p>\n

The arrest in Belgium comes at a crucial time for the alliance as it weathers deep criticism from President\u00a0Donald Trump\u00a0who has drawn down the U.S. security role in Europe. Trump has been pressing allies to spend more on defense and join the conflict in Iran while at the same time threatening to seize by force Greenland from NATO-member Denmark, a move that rattled Europeans and the alliance.<\/p>\n

Last year, following pressure from Trump, 32 NATO nations agreed to\u00a0invest 5% of their gross domestic product on defense\u00a0\u2014 3.5% on defense items such as jets and missiles and 1.5% on infrastructure, including roads, bridges and ports, as well as cybersecurity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
