"This is the first time we've seen China and Russia cooperate on Taiwan and recognize that this is a place where China definitely wants Russia to cooperate with them, and we see no reason why they wouldn't," said Director of National Intelligence Avril Haynes.

Haynes added that intelligence assessments point to "growing cooperation in a 'borderless' partnership" between Russia and China in really all sectors of society. In particular in

  • political,
  • economic,
  • military,
  • and technological sectors.
"Of course, there is such a possibility... The question of how likely it is, I think, depends on the scenario," she added.
