Antony Blinken: “We've been very focused on trying to put in place what's necessary for a multinational force, including finding a lead…”

Today, Secretary Blinken said that, now, they mostly want to see is 'people being able to return their homes.'

The U.S. government was concerned Beijing was considering augmenting its support for Russia with 'everything from ammunition to the weapons themselves.'

The bottom line is this: We want Ukraine to win.

We assess that Hamas has recruited almost as many new militants as it has lost. That is a recipe for an enduring insurgency and perpetual war.
