Putin has consistently aimed to invade Ukraine, and this substantiated by various intelligence assessments. Read Robert Woodward latest book! Thus, Trump's conduct today was childish and dismissive of the serious geopolitical implications at stake. #SupportingUkraine

What challenges does post-Assad #Syria face in terms of defence sector reform? In this short blog, I address this question, with a particular focus on the Syrian Democratic Forces. The Syrian National Army and the Druze factions in Suwayda remain reluctant to disarm during this transitional period

Americans must watch ‘Judgement at Nuremberg’ to understand fully what fascism in power is like, it becomes, it does to the innocent, how if erodes all decency and rule of law, and then ask themselves, “did I know what was going on?”. Well, yes you ALL do KNOW!

'Speak directly!': Putin has tense exchange with his chief spy
Just sharing this famous meeting of #Putin in Feb 2022 as he was decided on his adventure to invade #Ukraine. Notice his bullying tone and humiliation of Director of Foreign Intelligence services Sergei Naryshkin. "sprak plainly"... Sergei is shaking and scared to death. youtu.be/o9A-u8EoWcI?...
