This is an incredible analysis of how Putin's invasion of the world will re-order the global world, largely for the better. By a leading Chinese policy thinker, in Shanghai, originally written in Chinese. Brief thread, but read the whole thing. uscnpm.org/2022/03/12/hu-wei… 1/

I realize American scholars have a lot to say about NATO expansion and its supposed responsibility for Putin’s decision to go to war with Ukraine. But ⁦@andreivkozyrev⁩, Russia’s former foreign minister, argues that’s nonsense. My interview: newlinesmag.com/reportage/ru…

Russia’s Ex-Foreign Minister on His ‘Totalitarian’ Country

Andrei Kozyrev, Yeltsin’s first top diplomat, speaks about Putin’s ‘disastrous’ war in Ukraine and why the revisionist history about NATO enlargement is all wrong.

It appears that "escalate to de-escalate" is no longer a purely academic issue. So, is it a real thing? A thread. TLDR: Yes, it appears that it might be an option in some circumstances. And it depends on how serious Russia is about its own declaratory policy. 1/

Bei störungsfreiem Betrieb reicht der Dieselvorrat an Dieselgeneratoren für 48 Stunden. Die Abschaltung des SSE „Chornobyl NPP“ macht es unmöglich, die Parameter der nuklearen und Strahlensicherheit in den Einrichtungen des Unternehmens zu kontrollieren.
