Trump is not only failing to make peace in Ukraine but also emboldening Russia by being unwilling to put pressure on Putin. My piece in @politico.eu. www.politico.eu/article/dona...

Good read on Russia’s hybrid war against Moldova by @peterpomerantsev.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

Does Trump have a plan for Ukraine? Doesn’t seem like it. But what do we know about the Trump Administration’s thinking? Here is my take: sceeus.se/en/publicati...

I don't often share the (too) many analyses of Ukraine/Russia developments in 2015. But this one is a must-read, by the excellent @wesslau.bsky.social, a seasoned diplomat and very acute observer of Ukraine, when we talk about security and conflict resolution foreignpolicy.com/2024/11/27/t...

My take on the limits of a deal between Trump and Putin on Ukraine in @ForeignPolicy. A deal may not happen. Even if it does, without Europe and Ukraine on board, it may not mean much. Real risk is Putin stringing along Trump to undermine West’s support. foreignpolicy.com/2024/11/27/t...

Russian interest in peace is no given, and Europe may not be on board. foreignpolicy.com/2024/11/27/t...
