Por qué un posible ataque contra Irán mantiene al mundo en vilo: redes terroristas, alianzas globales y la amenaza nuclear Después de semanas de desafíos interno y externos, el régimen de los ayatollahs confirmó que sostiene su poder para inyectar inestabilidad en su región y en el mundo

I spoke w/ @lanacioncom.bsky.social on Russia's limited ability to support the Iranian government as it battles internal protests and external threats. Russian resources are bogged down in Ukraine, so Moscow currently can only offer Tehran words/diplomatic cover www.lanacion.com.ar/el-mundo/por...

"A ce stade, on ne peut pas faire face" : comment l'industrie de défense russe menace l’Europe Les capacités de production russes ont massivement augmenté depuis le début de la guerre. Dans quelques années, le Kremlin disposera d’une puissance de feu inédite.

Some recent comments from me in @lexpress.fr on the Russian defense industry www.lexpress.fr/monde/a-ce-s...

Trump and Putin tackle Ukraine conflict in Anchorage without Zelenskyy Trump is set to meet Putin in Alaska to discuss the Ukraine conflict, but Zelenskyy is absent. Expectations for a peace deal are tempered amid high tensions.

I had the chance to speak with @scrippsnews.bsky.social about how Russia's grinding progress on the battlefields of Ukraine is affecting Putin's calculus headed into today's summit in Alaska www.scrippsnews.com/politics/rus...

Which Donald Trump will negotiate with Putin in Alaska? When U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin met in Helsinki in 2018, the pair alarmed allies with a friendly encounter where Trump sided with the Russian leader over his own intelligence agencies on election interference.

What the Next Round of Sanctions Against Russia Should Look Like Moscow has successfully restructured its economy on an impressive war footing, but there are weaknesses under the hood.

🚨 NEW: @nicholasfenton.bsky.social & @msnegovaya.bsky.social argue in @foreignpolicy.com that economic statecraft alone is not enough to slow Russia's war effort––weapons & intelligence support for Ukraine remains key to forcing Moscow to negotiate in good faith ⬇️

✍️ Then and now, a containment strategy seeks to check Moscow’s power & avoid a direct conflict. Today, replicating Kennan’s approach in Europe is not enough—new times call for new thinking.
