The True North is strong and free.

Three months ago, Lavrov told Tucker Carlson that the United States was always trying to cause trouble in the world so they could use them to their advantage.

Yesterday, Lavrov said that trouble was always caused by Europe.

What will Lavrov say in three months?
Will he blame China?
Your thoughts?

Parts of the leaked critical minerals agreement that the US presented to Zelensky last week

I am told the original document stipulated that this agreement between the US and Ukrainian governments would be governed under.. NY State law!

Other issues here:
- Request to sign an agreement that says “Pre-decisional & Deliberative”
- No specification on the timeframe for the license payments - in perpetuity or limited in some form?
- US commitments are extremely vague. I am told the original draft didn’t include any, which would have made it unenforceable under NY law (you have to have future considerations included in a contract)

All we need is peace. A JUST PEACE. Ukraine, Europe and the United States should work on this together. TOGETHER.

A reminder: Vladimir Putin could end the war in Ukraine right now, just by ordering his soldiers to go home. No need for treaties or negotiations.

1. “Land for peace” sounds nice but Putin isn’t fighting for land. He is fighting to destroy Ukraine as a nation. When the next U.S. president takes office he will therefore face the same choices as Biden: let Putin win or help him lose

Hi All, Put together this post on how the Biden Administration is trying to whitewash its enormous policy failures over Ukraine. They have made the war a calamity, in Ukraine and around the world, and are trying to justify their failure over and over again for the same reason.

[Anne Applebaum @anneapplebaum]

There are two Republican campaigns, one ugly and angry but normal, seeking to get people to vote. The other one is preparing people to accept an assault on the electoral system, if Trump loses, or on the political system, if he wins. Read more:

A speaker at the Trump rally: “There’s literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it’s called Puerto Rico”

[Anne Applebaum @anneapplebaum]

When conservatives deflect or dismiss Trump's language and threats, "they are revealing in advance that they have no intention of objecting seriously to any authoritarian moves Trump might make."

John Kelly, Donald Trump’s longest-serving chief of staff, said Trump met the definition of a fascist and would try to govern like a dictator if elected. https://t.co/FLciobqMuR

Why does Trump sound like Hitler, Stalin and Mussolini? Because he thinks it will work

PLEASE do NOT share this @DaveBautista message with @realdonaldtrump of the Trump family. It will upset them, and that would be so, so wrong. 😂

P.S. I will never get the giraffe image out of my head.

[Anne Applebaum @anneapplebaum]

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Any plan to negotiate or "trade land for peace" that doesn't explain how and why they will stop fighting is just more magical thinking https://t.co/DY67xBJWFU
