The demand for Turkish drones has mounted across the globe in recent years. Сustomers include NATO allies in Europe, Arab countries in the Gulf and North Africa and others. Türkiye has become a leading exporter of uncrewed systems and is determined to remain so. 1/4

Change is possible, but it requires a concerted commitment to reform. Far greater attention is required to ensure sanctions are better deployed in the service of peace and security. Please read our report to see why this is so important. crisisgroup.org/united-states/… 22/22
It's been 15 years since S Ossetia and Abkhazia were recognised by #Russia as independent states following its invasion of #Georgia. @Olesya_vArt talked to people living along the separation line about what their lives have been like all this time: youtube.com/watch?v=FFb_Js…

The Kyiv-based Centre for Defence Strategies think tank reported two days ago that "Ukrainian Defense Forces ceased the deployment of GLMRS on the battlefield due to GPS signal suppression by the enemy." I am not sure whether the cessation is complete, but Russians significantly…
@familje_ekonomi Quite simple. If he wants to win the war, he has to mobilize another 500,000 man and will lose 200,000 of them within the next two years. If he doesn’t, he will never reclaim Ru-occupied territory. Strategy right now is no mobilization and hoping for Western weapons. Won’t work.
I wrote in @just_security about how U.S. #sanctions can hamper #peace. The U.S. should use sanctions if they have a chance of making wars less brutal or bringing them to a close. But without reforms to blunt sanctions’ negative consequences, their effectiveness will be limited.
“Too often sanctions levied in the name of advancing peace and security have hidden costs that compromise their objectives.” @delaneysimon @CrisisGroup explains and offers concrete ways to make #sanctions work better. justsecurity.org/94952/americas…
Check this out: the first review of To Run the World is in: libraryjournal.com/review/to-run-…. "VERDICT A remarkably balanced, brilliant, ambitious, durable work of scholarship, combining histories of the Cold War with Soviet foreign policy." Very grateful for this kind assessment!
There is a lot of handwringing about the inability of foreign powers to influence the dire situation in Afghanistan since the Taliban takeover but @smithkabul has some smart ideas about how diplomacy can yield some dividends.
Our new commentary @CrisisGroup offers ideas about how diplomats could get better results from talks with the Taliban. So far, negotiations with the Taliban have failed to make their regime more politically inclusive or respectful of women’s rights. 1/ crisisgroup.org/asia/south-asi…
Before your cheer too much about Ukraine being able to down a Russian strategic bomber hundreds of kilometers south east of the country, also keep in mind that Ukraine is unable to down a Russian ground attack aircraft over a village it allegedly still holds within the country.⤵️
It's time to start talking about Frente 57, the dissidents of the FARC dissidents, now expanding rapidly in #Cauca. Under the command of Alias "Oscar" or "Barreto", this group threatens another wave of violence around Tacueyo 🧵👇 & the corridor from Cauca to the eje cafetera
There is a third option. RU can capture the remaining parts of the Donetsk Oblast and stop there. I am not assessing the likelihood of such a scenario, but the provision of only two scenarios regarding the outcome of the war in such unpredictable times is improper.
The US can quickly resume providing military aid to let Ukraine stabilize the front lines near the current locations. Or it can let the Russians defeat the Ukrainian military and drive toward the NATO borders from the Black Sea to central Poland. There is no third option. (1/3)
🧵While Israel and Iran face a stark choice: to step back from the brink, let's not forget that Israel and the world face another stark choice: to stop the famine in #Gaza. A thread from our @CrisisGroup report about the conditions that have put Gaza on the edge of famine.
It's time to address some of the points raised by the esteemed commentariat. But, first of all, thank you for your engagement. @scharap and I expected that the article would be of interest, and we were certainly not disappointed.
In spring 2022, Moscow, Kyiv, and other actors were making substantial progress toward a treaty—but they never finalized a deal, write @scharap and @DrRadchenko. What are the key takeaways of these talks—and how might they shape future negotiations? trib.al/6umYvmg
Foreign Affairs published today the results of a most fruitful collaboration between @scharap and yours truly, an article on the failed peace talks between Russia and Ukraine (March-April 2022). foreignaffairs.com/ukraine/talks-….
What happened at the Claridge today is unacceptable. Municipal autonomy is a cornerstone of our democracy but can never overrule the Belgian constitution guaranteeing the freedom of speech and peaceful assembly since 1830. Banning political meetings is unconstitutional.Full stop.
Insightful piece by @AliVaez. I shudder to think of the mass civilian suffering that could take place if the hard-liners in Iran, who as Ali writes are ascendant, keep embracing confrontation. Same in Israel. May cool heads prevail.
While many are cautiously optimistic that further escalation could be avoided, it’s too soon for relief: both #Iran & #Israel could keep trading escalating blows, leading to an expanding war that draws in the US and envelops the whole region. My take👇🏼 foreignaffairs.com/israel/middle-…
This is a total misunderstanding of how expertise works. An expert is someone who knows the issue, not the one who toes the party line. The logic in this thread looks like it's taken straight out of a Lubyanka manual
In today's #vatniksoup, I'll introduce an American political strategist, Samuel Charap (@scharap). He's best-known for strongly arguing against the Western military support to Ukraine, and advising Ukraine to give up to imperialist Russia's demands. 1/18
