1/ It is once again a time for choosing for the Western world. Our governments appear to be stabilising the #sanctions regime and stalling on the range of #weapons to #Ukraine. Insufficient pressure is dangerous. As we can see, #Russian aggression continues.
2/ Fundamentally, the more the forces of the aggressor state gain ground and surround cities, the more harm they can and will do against innocent civilians. But the more the invaders are pushed back and suffer high losses in men and materiel, the better.
3/ For this reason, I advocate a quantum leap in #military assistance to #Ukraine, covering a broader volume and range of equipment and training (locations and modalities for specialists to determine).
Covert actions in concert with #Ukraine's defenders could also be useful.

4/ To overload the fascist-aggressor state's ability to respond, an orchestrated series of provocations and demonstrations of force should be prepared in multiple locations - at sea, in the air, in space, in cyber-space. The West should show #courage and absolute #determination.
5/ In parallel to #sanctions, #arms supplies, and shows for force, a more offensive phase of #information operations should be launched, aimed at undermining #Russian public opinion regarding their dictator's strength, good judgment, and legitimacy.
END.
END.
