In a February 2024 commentary by former CIA analyst [[Larry Johnson]] entitled ''The Delusions of CIA Director [[William Burns]]'', Johnson reviewed "Burns’ January 30, 2024 article in ''[[CFR|Foreign Affairs]]'' — ''Spycraft and Statecraft: Transforming the CIA for an Age of Competition'' – is a shocking display of [[ignorance]] and [[misinformation]] about Russia, the state of the [[war in Ukraine]] and [[NATO]]'s [[military]] capabilities...Although Burn’s is an educated man and experienced diplomat, this article displays a profound arrogance seasoned with provably [[falsifiable|false]] claims...The so-called vision he presents for “transforming the CIA” is a childish fantasy and signals that the CIA is drifting towards being irrelevant as well as incompetent".<ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/02/delusions-cia-chief-william-burns/</ref>
