“Nearly 4 years into this conflict no one has articulated a clear strategy for victory for Ukraine.
There really needs coalescence on what the strategy is because piecemeal is not working for Ukraine.
And having a full strategy enables procurement, intelligence and sanctions to work together.”

“Putin should be in no doubt, our support is enduring. The pressure we apply on Ukraine‘s behalf will be sustained. The export of chaos is a feature, not a bug in the Russian approach to international engagement & we should be ready for this to continue until Putin is forced to change his calculus.”

Germany’s chancellor warned of a “fundamental change” in transatlantic ties, said “Pax Americana” is “largely over,” and that Europe is “not at war” but “no longer simply” at peace today. If Ukraine falls, “Putin won’t stop.”

“Dear friends, the decades of the Pax Americana are largely over for us in Europe, and for us in Germany, as well. It no longer exists as we know it. And nostalgia won’t change that.

The US has attempted to reach a secret deal with the EU and showed its secret plan to betray Ukraine.
Europe rejecting this plan, combined with the fine to Musk’s X, triggered the recent coordinated influence campaign launched by the US, Israel, and Russia.

The last time he confronted Trump he was dragged out as House Republicans and Democrats sneered at him due to his criticism of Israel’s highly documented crimes against humanity in Gaza. Will they betray the United States again?

NATO needs to DO something. Putin pushes and pushes until forced to stop. The cost and risk of stopping him sooner is lower. We already saw this when he was not forced to stop after invading Ukraine in 2014.

Türkiye is a member of NATO.
The Russian attack on the Turkish ship is an attack on NATO.
