Former Ukrainian FM Kuleba: I do not believe Ukraine’s crisis is only about Fedorov’s conflict with Syrskyi or corruption networks in the Defense Ministry. You do not fall from peak trust and power to a complete rupture with Zelenskyy in six months for those reasons alone. 1/

Fedorov: Zelenskyy said he wouldn’t replace Syrskyi, I accepted that. I would have learned to work with him because we answer to the Ukrainian people. But our initiatives were blocked.

Applebaum: The war with Iran was clearly a war of choice. Israel had proposed this kind of action to previous US presidents, and they declined. They understood the immediate danger to international shipping and especially to the oil and gas industries. 1/

Macron: Trump arrived thinking Ukraine would lose and wanted a quick deal. At the Anchorage summit, he nearly handed over territory Ukraine still controls on the ground. Then three things fundamentally changed his calculus and the shift has been decisive for the war. 1/

Applebaum: Putin's war has finally reached Moscow. Muscovites have lost cell service, struggled to use ATMs and come under drone attacks. They understand Russia isn't winning. Putin won't fall tomorrow, but it has shifted the mood of Russia's business and political elite. 1/

Applebaum: What binds Russia, China, Iran and North Korea is not religion or ideology. China is communist, Russia nationalist, Iran theocratic. What binds them is fear of liberal language: rights, rule of law, separation of powers and independent courts. 1/

Ex-CIA officer Wiswesser: Russians are willing to take incalculable suffering. During WWII, Soviet troops repeatedly failed to cross a minefield. Then they walked into it arm in arm. Some were blown up. The rest kept walking, clearing the minefield with their own bodies. 1/

Peskov: London urged Zelenskyy not to sign the draft agreement. Kyiv said Ukraine would not sign with a gun to its head. As a goodwill step before signing, Putin ordered troops to withdraw from the Kyiv region. [Russia failed to capture Kyiv. Ukraine pushed its troops out.] 1/

Kuleba: Putin is living through his Stalin moment. When everything falls apart around you, you do not give in. You tighten the screws and double down: nothing can break me. Putin is waiting for winter to crush Ukraine’s energy system and its people’s resilience. 1/

Browder: I know Putin pretty well. He's not a guy who comes with his tail between his legs. He's ready to commit the most horrific crimes to show he is a brutal, terrible adversary. Just because he's getting hammered doesn't mean he's going to give up. Not him. 1/
