Paul Nakasone and DIA Director Lt. Gen. Scott Berrier.
The U.S. spy chiefs testified before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Wednesday. Each hearings offer a rare opportunity for lawmakers and the general public to listen to directly from intelligence chiefs, whose agencies don’t offer routine press briefings on their activities.
National security topics expected to be raised within the hearings are nuclear proliferation, terrorism hotspots, the continuing war in Ukraine, cyber warfare and malign influence posed by Russia, North Korea, China and Iran.
