Things I believe:
* Nuclear Power is the solution to global warming
* Social media is a tool for authoritarianism and a threat to civil society
* Crushing Russia in Ukraine will result in peace
* China is an evil empire

It's somewhat amusing that you can pass yourself off as a Russia expert commenting on this "peace deal" as messy but at least "a way to end the war" without realising Kremlin sees it as just a tactic to continue it later.

For the 1000th time, how to deal with Trump: Show strength. Shape events. Make him react to your move rather than jumping like a scared rabbit whenever he says something nuts.
Europe’s consistent failure to do so only encourages more American madness.

This is all so obvious, and yet needs to be constantly repeated. Russia is a tyrannical regime, guilty of mass murder and war crimes in Ukraine.

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

And rightly so. It’s amazing that the small ones have punched so far above their weight, but inexcusable that the bigger ones haven’t followed suit. There simply are capacity limits for the small ones.
