Lições da Guerra na Ucrânia:
Lithuania wants “to buy AMRAAMS for their NASAMS,” he stated. “Five-year wait. I talked to the Bulgarian CHOD [Chief of Defense]. They want to buy Javelins for their Strykers. Seven-year wait. I talked to some of the big allies who want to buy Patriots. 10-year wait. That needs to get fixed.”
Portugal wants to buy Super Tucanos. Boom! Motherfuckers get Super Tucanos. Are you kidding me!? (Ver NOTA 1)
Lesson 1:
“Collective action rests on the foundation of shared awareness, and it takes real work to achieve that shared awareness,” he said. “And unlike in 2014, where ambassadors were arguing, they’re looking at pictures, saying, ‘see the Russians are in Crimea,’ and the next ambassador would say, ‘No, that looks like 100 to me.’ And as a result, we didn’t do anything because we didn’t have shared awareness of what was going on. Our 2022 response could not have more been more different than the 2014 response, in primary part, due to shared intelligence among allies, especially from the U.S.”
Lesson 2:
“It’s not what we do that provokes Putin. It’s what we don’t do. We should have learned that in 2014, and … [that takes us to] lesson number three.”
Lesson 3:
“Putin is not a strategist. He’s an opportunist. He pushes on some doors, and when nobody pushes back, he walks in. What 2014 taught him was that there was no significant consequence for using force. It invited Putin’s 2022 invasion, in my opinion. In his own words, Putin believes that, quote, ‘a serious, irreconcilable struggle is unfolding for the formation of a new world order.’ And … [that takes us to] lesson number four.”
Lesson 4:
“We are in a strategic confrontation. I believe our Australian friends are [seeing] the same [Chinese Premier] Xi [Jingping] dynamic in the Indo-Pacific. Putin explicitly said he’ll use crisis and conflict during peace to win the strategic confrontation. Peace, crisis, conflict used to be a sequence, part of our model. Now, it’s a spectrum. As NATO Secretary General [Mark] Rutte said, ‘we are not at war, but we are certainly not at peace either.”
