Whether you think Putin is planning to invade Ukraine again or exercising coercive diplomacy, we can all agree that Putin does not seek "a stable and predictable" relationship with the United States. That is clear. — PolitiTweet.org

China experts face the same challenge. For all of our advances in social science methods, it is striking to me how time we still spend (and rightly if tragically so) on reading tea leaves about Xi's or Putin's intentions. — PolitiTweet.org

From last August: "Biden and Zelensky should also discuss the peace process for eastern Ukraine, including perhaps formal U.S. involvement in the moribund Normandy process between Germany, France, Russia and Ukraine." https://t.co/I6PXWdqqaF — PolitiTweet.org

What I wrote on eve of Zelensky's visit last summer: "Zelensky should stop asking — for now — to sign a NATO Membership Action Plan (MAP). MAPs do not provide security guarantees, and the hard reality is that Ukraine today is not qualified to join NATO." https://t.co/I6PXWdqqaF — PolitiTweet.org

Why did Putin intervene in Ukraine (2014), Syria (2015), and the U.S. (2016)? My take in @Journal_IS : "Putin, Putinism, and the Domestic Determinants of Russian Foreign Policy." https://t.co/WewvEjPNcS — PolitiTweet.org

And remember, Russians "won" the Cold War. (and Poles, Estonians, Ukrainians, Georgians etc). Yet, today, most of the debate about great power competition is about competing/containing governments and almost nothing about engaging their societies. That's a strategic mistake. https://t.co/uIJ7Su7ZEx — PolitiTweet.org

The central challenge for U.S. strategists seeking to contain & compete with China is separating vital from non-vital interests. US does not have the capacity to contain PRC everywhere & on every issue. Lots of lessons to be learned from the Cold War of what NOT to do again. 1/ — PolitiTweet.org

Biden & team should consider similar messaging when speaking about deepening constructive engagement with the Vietnamese Communist Party dictatorship. Otherwise, the US will be accused of hypocrisy when criticizing CCP dictatorship. 4/ END THREAD cc: @trinhhoivoice — PolitiTweet.org
