Friends: Hein Goemans and I have a piece in Foreign Affairs explaining why negotiated peace is very unlikely because of Russia. https://t.co/EglsXh8PNv

And of course, as usual, Trump simply made up a claim that, according to some supposed polls, 82% of Ukrainians “demand” that Zelenskyy reach a “deal” with the Kremlin -- clearly implying that they want this “deal” now and at any cost, up to and including full capitulation, which

THIS!!! NDAA just passed the House by a vote of 312-112.

Unclear why the West should be rebuilding Russia’s economy. Again. All it’s going to do is blow up in our faces when the next Russian revanchist decides everything is the West’s fault and starts invading neighbors again.

I am officially in the transfer portal.

We should form a Wolf Party and run on “Release the Wolves!” platform.

For those keep track of facts rather than creative interpretations and selective memory, Bennett walked back his claims soon after he made them. Moreover, from the wealth of material released about these negotiations, we know that the gap was vast, and that it was due to

I have ordered economy to accelerate immediately. If economy fails to accelerate to global rates, economy will be arrested and economists will accelerate to terminal velocity from window. I remain a master strategist.

Brand new study demonstrates a material-independent universal scaling collapse for Wiedemann–Franz violations across three distinct hydrodynamic quantum materials. For over a century, the Wiedemann–Franz law has been treated as a baseline constraint in condensed matter. Our

Wonder if he really believes this, about "sanctions-driven economic era" coming to an end. Because if he does, it shows a mind-boggling naiveté about the direction the world is going in.

Mearsheimer is lying like most of us breathe. The idea that someone is pushing for “total victory” for Ukraine or to overthrow Putin is absurd. It wasn’t even true under Biden, let alone now. As with his academic work, John is great at erecting imaginary strawmen that look

It’s never a good idea to be raging at the voters for not voting the way you want them to. These people seem to be perpetually confused as to who is supposed to be selecting whom. You want votes, pursue policies voters want instead of bitching when they see through your game of

It’s amazing how people fail to grasp some very simple things about war termination. It takes both sides to agree to end the war. The Russians are demanding things the Ukrainians — not “hawkish voices outside Ukraine” — are unwilling to concede, and with good reason. a the

New exclusive details of the revised peace proposal have emerged: three documents are currently on the negotiating table - the plan itself, the security guarantees, and the economic recovery framework, according to The Washington Post. What they include: – A demilitarized zone

SBU’s “Sea Baby” naval drones struck the Russian “shadow fleet” tanker Dashan in the Black Sea. The vessel, sailing under the Comoros flag, was moving through Ukraine’s exclusive economic zone toward the port terminal in Novorossiysk. As a result of the attack, the tanker

One of the pencils withheld for tariff payment.

One clown supporting another is de rigueur for living in a circus.

Again with the demands on Ukraine. What I’m not hearing is a plan to get the Russians to agree to stop fighting. You do understand that it takes two to make peace, right?

If you don’t believe me that the Russians have leapt off the demographic cliff, perhaps you can believe the Russians themselves telling you this?

So let’s do some simple maths: 190,000 Russian troops invaded Ukraine in 2022 + 40,000 from the banana republics + 300,000 mobilized in the fall + 150,000 who signed new contracts or volunteered that year + 350,000 who signed up in 2023 (conservative estimate, as Russians claim

Посол Украины в Израиле Евгений Корнийчук в интервью Ynet прокомментировал заявление премьера Биньямина Нетаниягу о его хороших отношениях с Путиным: «Я здесь не для того, чтобы советовать вашему премьер-министру, что ему говорить, но хочу напомнить вам, что Россия, эта так

🇪🇺 EU ambassadors have agreed to expand sanctions against Russia. New measures will target nine individuals and entities linked to Russia’s “shadow fleet,” along with 43 ships, 12 people, and two companies accused of destabilising the EU. Formal approval is expected Friday,

The Russian economy is growing in a negative direction.
