Two interesting, successive statements by General Kellogg at #WSF2025: The transatlantic relationship is both value-based and transactional You Europeans do not realise how good you are. You're good on your own - like my kids on their bikes after the extra wheels were removed

L’Ukraine ne peut pas gagner cette guerre. Il ne doit pas la perdre. Le cadre d’une négociation réaliste qui correspondrait à cet objectif est bien connu. Le plan de Trump le respecte. Reste à en négocier les termes. L’alternative, c’est la prolongation d’une guerre dévastatrice.
