Quantum Supremacy and National Security: The U.S.–China Race to Secure the Future

The dawn of quantum computing heralds a transformative era in technology, with profound implications for national security, economic competitiveness, and global power dynamics. At the forefront of this technological revolution are the United States and China, engaged in a high-stakes race to achieve quantum supremacy—a state where quantum computers can perform tasks beyond the capabilities of classical computers. This competition is not merely about technological prowess; it encompasses strategic efforts to protect sensitive information, develop quantum-resistant encryption, and establish dominance in the emerging quantum economy.

U.S. and China Race to Build First Quantum-Safe Encryption Before Cyber Catastrophe

The intensifying technological rivalry between the United States and the People’s Republic of China has entered a new frontier: quantum computing and quantum communication. These cutting-edge technologies, capable of transforming national security architectures, economic systems, and digital infrastructure, are now at the heart of a sophisticated geopolitical struggle. The Reuters investigative report, "Quantum Battlefield," details how Chinese companies and researchers are advancing quantum technology in ways that intersect with military ambitions and U.S. export controls. At the center of this battle lies a fundamental tension between national security interests, global trade dynamics, and the liberal democratic commitment to open scientific inquiry.
