Putin and Dvornikov are not implementing a "Plan B" in Donbas. They are already on "Plan D." — PolitiTweet.org

@spider6168 Really bad analogy. If Ukraine doesn't have more weapons, Putin will kill more people. — PolitiTweet.org

Yes. I wrote this last August: "Biden should celebrate Ukraine as a critical security partner in Europe and announce major new military assistance..This package should focus on defensive weapons including more antitank Javelins as well as upgraded radars" https://t.co/I6PXWdqqaF — PolitiTweet.org

Russia's Plan A for conquering Ukraine -- shock & awe -- failed. Plan B-- capturing Kyiv & other major cities -- failed. Plan C -- mass destruction and civilian slaughter in major cities -- failed. Hoping Plan D -- seizure of Donbas -- also fails & this war can end. — PolitiTweet.org

It's the exact opposite. There will not be peace until Putin is stopped on the battlefield. That will only happen with more weapons, not less. This position = more death, not less. — PolitiTweet.org

На 46-ой день вторжения в Украину Путин (1) не добился "денацификации" (т.е. смены власти), (2) не добился полной демилитаризации, (3) не захватил ни одного крупного города, (4) проиграл Битву за Киев и (5) понес тяжелые потери. В то же время Путин не прекратил вторжение. — PolitiTweet.org

The democratic world must create better incentives for Russians to denounce the war and then seek safe harbor in the West. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael McFaul @McFaul

On Day 46 of his invasion of Ukraine, Putin has (1) not achieved denazification (i.e. regime change), (2) completed demilitarization, (3) captured a single major city, (4) lost the Battle of Kyiv, and (5) suffered heavy losses. At the same time, Putin has not quit his invasion. — PolitiTweet.org

Had analysts focused on Putin, his ideas & his autocratic regime, and not just "Russian interests," they would have better predicted and explained this horrific war. My take: Putin, Putinism, and the Domestic Determinants of Russian Foreign Policy https://t.co/g4aSyKx8do — PolitiTweet.org

At what point do Russian war crimes in Ukraine qualify as genocide? https://t.co/p5R9ZCy50P — PolitiTweet.org

Disappointing. Fear makes people do immoral things: "Russia’s central-bank governor, Elvira Nabiullina, is dismantling what she built for eight years—to keep the war economy humming. “She demonstrates her loyalty to Putin every minute, every second.” https://t.co/spmkMgu4Fg — PolitiTweet.org
