CIA Director Warns of Russia's Risk of Becoming China's Economic Colony.

CIA Director William Burns has warned that Russia risks becoming an "economic colony" of China as its isolation from the West deepens following the invasion of Ukraine. Meanwhile, leaked US military documents indicate that the UK has deployed as many as 50 special forces to Ukraine, and Egypt was planning to covertly supply Russia with rockets and munitions. The World Bank is ready to play its role in rebuilding Ukraine after the devastation of Russia's invasion, but the numbers are too large for international financial institutions alone and western European countries will have to chip in.
