Successful diplomacy often requires negotiators to de facto embrace ambiguity and even hypocrisy. Think of the creative rhetoric/doctrines that Americans & Chinese have done brilliantly (so far) to keep the peace around Taiwan. & read Krasner's Sovereignty: Organized Hypocrisy. — PolitiTweet.org

P.S. and all the key players know exactly what I just wrote. Putin knows. Biden knows. Zelensky knows. — PolitiTweet.org
Michael McFaul @McFaul
Yes. The U.S. is not going to war with Russia over Ukraine. Russia is at war with Ukraine. As long as Ukraine is at war with Russia, Ukraine will not join NATO. & that's why Putin remains at war with Ukraine. The "Ukraine-joining-NATO-threat" has been completely invented by Putin — PolitiTweet.org

You are soft on China if you don't support democratic reforms in the U.S. The China challenge is both about power and ideas. If we do not renew our democracy at home, we limit our ability to compete ideologically with China worldwide. — PolitiTweet.org
Michael McFaul @McFaul
Obviously, the stakes today are much higher -- about war and peace, not an arms control agreement. But those claiming to know that the no-NATO-for-Ukraine is a Putin red line either have access to Putin that I don't or should be more humble in their assessments. 2/ END. — PolitiTweet.org

During the new New START Treaty negotiations, Russia insisted on adding constraints to missile defense. We said no. They didn't drop that demand until the very END of the negotiations. (Turned out it wasn't a red line.) 1/ THREAD — PolitiTweet.org
Michael McFaul @McFaul
Putin is no fool. He knows that Biden will not and cannot agree to close the NATO door for Ukraine. What we don't know yet is if he is holding on to the unrealistic maximalist position to trade for other things, or does he just want to attack Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org

Between appeasement and war, there is a third and better path -- Helsinki 2.0 — PolitiTweet.org
Michael McFaul @McFaul
I agree. Actually, I’d even say it’s bigger than post-Soviet space. Like Germans after Versailles, Putin wants a rewrite of the post-Cold war order. I was responding to specific proposals on my feed about Ukraine/NATO. & yes Putin will never stop undermining Ukrainian sovereignty — PolitiTweet.org

Of course, such a deal is very unlikely. But it's even more unlikely that Biden will impose a moratorium on Ukraine's NATO membership. Those pushing that idea seem completely oblivious to both internal NATO politics and more importantly, American domestic politics. 3/ END THREAD — PolitiTweet.org
Michael McFaul @McFaul
Ukrainians must decide for themselves what they would want from Russia in return for a moratorium on NATO membership. But one can imagine the trade space: a pledge to not join for 10 years in return for (1) Crimea (2) or end of Donbas war (3) or reparations for Crimea etc./2 — PolitiTweet.org
Michael McFaul @McFaul
Biden/NATO should not & cannot close NATO's open door. Moratoriums on membership can only come from aspirants, in return obviously for something from Russia. That's how successful negotiations work. Ukraine & Russia must cut a deal, not US & Russia. 1/ — PolitiTweet.org

Rereading George and Smokes terrific book on coercive diplomacy in search of cases in which the threat of a massive military invasion triggered a peaceful and stable agreement/settlement.

Putin already violently violated a 1994 security agreement on Ukraine's sovereignty. Under what conditions should anyone believe his credible commitment to a new guarantee? Serious, not rhetorical, question. — PolitiTweet.org
