Держсекретар США прибув до Києва з ночівлею, що є дуже нетиповим для західних, а тим більше американських візитів. Він став першим американським “топом” від початку повномасштабної війни, про візит якого офіційно повідомили ще перед початком програми.
Backing down in the face of Russian threats is the worst option. The UK should join France in using strategic ambiguity.
The Kremlin has responded with predictable theatre to comments from foreign secretary David Cameron, after he said Ukraine is free to use weapons supplied by Britain to launch strikes inside Russia.

— Experts discuss the UK’s role in driving forward climate action.
In December 2015, 195 countries adopted the new and historical Paris Agreement on climate change, reinforcing the demand for developing countries to deliver US$ 100 billion towards climate action by 2020, and per year from then onwards.
With a general election imminent, it is already clear that the next UK government will take office in an immensely challenging environment for foreign policy. From wars in Gaza and Ukraine to concerns about climate change, China’s assertive global agenda and the durability of America’s commitment to European security, the next UK government will face many pressing international problems and have limited resources with which to tackle them.
Congress has finally approved around $61 billion in new aid to Ukraine, and something strange has happened: Talk of Ukrainian victory has returned to Washington. It’s a jarring turnabout. For the last few months, the White House and others issued dire warnings that if left unaided, Ukrainian lines might collapse and Russian troops might again roll on Kyiv.
