CIA Director William Burns said that after Russia's experience in Ukraine, Chinese President Xi Jinping and his military leadership doubt their ability to invade Taiwan. In a televised interview on Sunday, a top US intelligence official stressed that the US must take Chinese ambitions to control Taiwan very seriously. However, he also clarified that this does not mean a direct military conflict.
