“In brief, the CCP represents both the leading and most consequential threat to U.S. national security and leadership globally, and its intelligence-specific ambitions and capabilities make it for us our most serious and consequential intelligence rival,” said Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines about the Chinese government. She and the directors of the CIA, FBI, National Security Agency, and the Defense Intelligence Agency testified on global security threats before the Senate Intelligence Committee. In addition to China and other rival nations, the officials said other threats included those that “transcend borders,” such as climate change, health security, and rapidly emerging technologies. Moreover, when asked about the origin of COVID-19, FBI Director Christoper Wray said the bureau “long assessed” that it came from a Wuhan lab, but DNI Haines said the intelligence community was divided on whether it resulted from a lab leak or natural exposure to an infected animal. close
