Stevenson’s army, June 7

– Swedish govt survived a no confidence vote after deal with Kurdish MP.

– WSJ has more on Erdogan.

AMLO won’t attend this week’s summit.

– India may be part of the Quad, but Walter Russell Mead notes the many differences with US

– NYT notes troubles Ukrainians have learning new weapons.
