The unanimous conclusion of @chrussiaeurasia.bsky.social authors is that the only outcome in Ukraine that can safeguard the security of Europe is a convincing Ukrainian victory. Western military support to Kyiv should be redoubled before it is too late.

My latest for the Atlantic Council reflects on the cost of appeasing Russian leaders for the crime of aggression: invasion, occupation, annexation. What will be some of the costs if this policy is pursued? ⬇️🧵 www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/ukrain...
