No idea. We don't get to see enough of the dialogue to understand what is actually happening. We are all guessing until the history is published...
Some will, to be sure. Some will also call it a failure no matter what, too. Personally, I think we need to see the deal before judging it, and we...
True. And what happens to all of that equipment in the event of conflict termination? That is also a point of interest for Russia and a point of...
Would you take it off the table if it was the only way to get the other party to the table and you really needed (in your mind) the other party to...
Let's remember that NATO membership and a security guarantee are two different things. The first is the second, but the second is not necessarily...
Hard to say. We only see a fraction of the dialogue here. The SECDEF might have been speaking out of turn as you suggest, but he might have been...
No idea, but giving up Crimea is probably a non-starter for any negotiations. And it isn't like Ukraine is going to be in position to take it back...
I agree, but I don't think Russia will. Patience, my friend. I have no idea how things are going to turn out, but I don't think it's going to be...
Well, I have to ask the question, “Do you think it’s realistic to return to the 2014 borders by negotiation?” If the answer is yes, then I would...

Ukrainian soldiers fighting North Koreans: ‘They shoot well, they move well, but they are used as cannon fodder’ Some more information on the...
Not surprising. When you think victory is a certainty, cruelty can be a useful tool to speed things along. The risk, of course, is in not winning,...
You might be right. We will see.
Who won’t be with us much longer? Putin or that particular minister?
Well, a couple of things: first, Putin doesn’t really hold a doctorate in economics any more than Hunter Biden really has a law degree from Yale....
I’m not sure. I have heard from people who would know better than I that we have better insight than Putin on the actual state of his economy. If...
With all of those extra troops, Russia must have taken back that land around Kursk by now. Right?
I don’t disagree with any of that (except perhaps I don’t know how skilled the political theater is). I think this was the correct decision of the...
Point taken, but yes. As long as Alabama and Florida compete with each other in sports, then it has to be under the same set of rules. I don’t...
I think they were challenging whether or not she really was born a woman. As far as I know, she was. A rare genetic disorder that gives a woman an...
