Global Spy Chiefs Hold Secret Meeting in Singapore

Senior officials from around 24 major intelligence agencies, including the US Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines, held a secret meeting on the sidelines of the Shangri-La Dialogue security meeting in Singapore. The meetings, organised by the Singapore government, have been discreetly held at a separate venue alongside the security summit for several years. The US, China, and India were among the countries represented. The discussions were collaborative and cooperative, and not confrontational, with topics including Russia's war in Ukraine and transnational crime.
