Former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe expressed concerns about China-Russia relationship and warned of a shift in global power dynamics on 'Sunday Night in America with Trey Gowdy.'
Ratcliffe added,"President Xi and President Putin are basically very publicly flaunting their relationship and telling the rest of the world: Bet on us."
Gowdy highlighted an interview between House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas and"Fox News Sunday" host Shannon Bream, where Congressman McCaul drew a link between the"feckless" and the U.S.'s"decreased presence on the world stage." Ratcliffe told Gowdy, he agreed with McCaul's assessment, stating that China, Russia, and Iran saw weakness in the U.S.
"If you look back three years ago, the same circumstance when there was a U.S. contractor killed in January 2020, our response in the Trump administration wasn't to take out a handful of Iranian soldiers. It was to take out the head of the Iranian terror network. It was to take out Iranian, and it was delivered with the message: 'Today we took Soleimani but if these types of attacks continue, we're coming for the Supreme Leader next,' and that worked Trey.
