Agree with Jim Stavridis. Putin’s catastrophic invasion shows Russia’s weaknesses and highlights American strengths in diplomacy, intelligence and arms. Will make China reassess any aggressive plans.

With its peace plan for the Ukraine war, Beijing is asserting itself as a potential central player in European security -- probably for the first time ever. Will the plan have legs? fmprc.gov.cn/mfa_eng/wjdt_6…

Russia’s seizure of Bakhmut after months of fighting and heavy losses = Pyrrhic victory: a victory that inflicts such a devastating toll on the victor that it is tantamount to defeat.

Ukraine moves to encircle Bakhmut after Russia claims victory…A news anchor on Russia’s Channel One called the city’s capture “an event of historic proportions.” Is history getting smaller for Russia? nbcnews.com/news/world/rus…

Varad Mehta Based on what I’ve seen up close Heath Mayo is a person of tremendous integrity and principle. Varad Mehta’s assertion that Heath Mayo wants Trump around in order to profit from it is without foundation or evidence. Of course, ad hominem attacks are nothing new to Twitter.

Transatlantic diplomacy on edge over Trump-Putin summit. I was glad to join this interesting Al-Jazeera panel with analyst Jessica Berlin and former Latvian diplomat Eldar Mamedov. youtu.be/fjGtKqLof6g?si…
