It resets the global chessboard. Here are ten reasons why. First, the Venezuelan operation proves that American military and intelligence capabilities aren’t just better than anybody else’s — they operate in a wholly different dimension.  Russian President Vladimir Putin has thrown his entire military at Ukraine in hopes...

For three years, the Washington foreign policy establishment has insisted that there is only one acceptable outcome in Ukraine: total victory over Russia achieved through relentless military aid, indefinite financial support and escalation readiness regardless of the risks.
