Taiwan’s Foreign Minister recognizes that defending Ukraine is in Taiwan’s interest + interests of democracies around the world. Exactly. Those advocating abandoning Ukraine to focus on China ought to consider this & not assume they know better.
“The democracies of the world, led by the United States, must sustain their military, economic, and humanitarian aid to Ukraine,” writes Foreign Minister of Taiwan Jaushieh Joseph Wu.

Earlier this week, I spoke with Christiane @amanpour about the state of the war in Ukraine. We shared reflections on the Russian military’s past, and in the excerpt below, discussed what might be on the horizon for them. Thank you for having me on the show! (1/2)
Russia’s prison population has dropped from around 400,000 before the war in Ukraine to 266,000 this year, says @MassDara, indicating how many of Russia’s prisoners are now fighting on the frontlines in Ukraine.

Because of the Compacts, our military draws strength from the service of citizens from Palau, Micronesia, and the Marshall Islands. Thanks to leadership from @POTUS and bipartisan support from Congress, our economic assistance to these key partners will continue into the 2040s.

Over 100 people, including journalists, have been arrested in Russia for protesting in memory of opposition figure Alexey Navalny. Many were reportedly arrested while leaving flowers at memorials to victims of political repression. meduza.io/en/news/2024/02/17…
Cried my way through the #Navalny documentary tonight. So much courage. My heart breaks for his family and friends - and also for the Russian people who have to live under Putin’s brutal and thuggish authoritarian regime. In Navalny’s own words: Don’t give up.

Navalny's wife Yulia at the Munich security conference:
"If it's true, I want Putin, his entourage, Putin's friends and his government to know they will be held responsible for what they have done to our country, my family, and my husband. And that day will come very soon."

“The consequences of Putin conquering Ukraine would be catastrophic.” Poland’s Foreign Minister @radeksikorski tells me “the cost of deterring Putin after he conquers Ukraine would be much much higher than the cost of keeping the Ukrainians supplied now,” urging additional US aid

Congress needs to pass supplemental funding for Ukraine before they break for the Holiday recess.
Failing to do that risks giving Putin the greatest gift he could ever hope for and abandoning our global leadership.
This cannot wait.
