WASHINGTON -- China, Russia, Iran and North Korea are increasingly aligned, and any sign of wavering or weakness from the West "will invite challenges from those who wish us harm," NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg told an audience at the conservative think tank Heritage Foundation here Wednesday.
"Let's remember, China and Russia are partners," he said, noting that Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin agreed to a partnership with "no limits" when they met in Beijing in February 2022.
