Stevenson’s army, April 1
The big news of the day:
– NYT notes that Russia lacks a field commander for Ukraine; story has interesting tidbits about Ukraine military culture.
– Macron has fired his chief of military intelligence.
– NYT has background on Wagner mercenaries.
– Here’s text of British intelligence chief’s speech on Ukraine.
– DOD says aid to Ukraine is massive and speedy.
– Solomons PM says China won’t get military base.
Think about this: WOTR piece says maybe Putin didn’t plan war, just coercive diplomacy, until last minute. Another WOTR piece notes differences between defense experts and general public on security needs.
