The US touts weapons sales as a form of diplomacy, a tool to build long-term relationships of cooperation with those buying American arms. The types of arms matter for this, which makes a November arms sale to India more interesting than its dollar value.

Knowing how arms sales factor into diplomacy is crucial for any future policy makers looking to change such relationships between the US and other countries in the future. SAM data helps tremendously. https://t.co/5bOvG5MHIp

As candidates test out messages for 2028, some want a return to China Hawkishness, positioning the US as a moral counterweight to Beijing. After electing Trump twice, that's a dangerous misread of US standing and capacity, argues Rui Zhong.

[The International Policy Journal @CIPolicyJournal]

Better diplomatic results hinge on the capacity make negotiations work, skilled knowledgeable practioners capable of executing them, and a belief that the US will honor commitments in the future. Start there.

We are two months into Trump's war on Iran, in a ceasefire that threatens to break at any moment and with resolution or even deescalation unlikely. Sanam Naraghi Anderlini of @whatthewomensay takes stock of the present pause.

[The International Policy Journal @CIPolicyJournal]

The best thing the international community can do for Iran and each other is urge an end to the war, whose aims appear beyond the reach of force. That will take partners who want and can commit to peace, commitments Trump has repeatedly abandoned.
