Stevenson’s army, February 22

– The White House has released a fact sheet on the Ukraine war, including embedded links to even more details.

– Politico has a good summary of new laws and policies to counter Chinese technology [relevant to week 7 exercise]

– Yahoo News says Russia plans to take over Belarus.

– Prigozhin accuses Russian military of treason.

– David Frum makes case for AMLO as an autocrat.

– WaPo columnist details GOP budget games.

– Dan Drezner skewers DeSantis foreign policy

– A footnote inspired me to read this article on how, except for US independence, the British won the war of 1775-83.

My SAIS colleague Charlie Stevenson distributes this almost daily news digest of foreign/defense/national security policy to “Stevenson’s army” via Googlegroups. I republish here, with occasional videos of my choice. To get Stevenson’s army by email, send a blank email (no subject or text in the body) to stevensons-army+subscribe@googlegroups.com. You’ll get an email confirming your join request. Click “Join This Group” and follow the instructions to join. Once you have joined, you can adjust your email delivery preferences (if you want every email or a digest of the emails).
