Stevenson’s army, January 25

Slovakia makes a U-turn to support Ukraine

Orban now seems willing to let Sweden join NATO

McConnell backs away from Ukraine + border bill

– Biden pressures Congress on F16s for Turkey

All but 2 Senate Democrats cosponsor amendment calling for 2 state solution. Here’s the text

– SFRC approves bill to use Russian assets for Ukraine

-Here’s the text of the Kaine et al letter on war powers for Houthi attacks

– RollCall reports 2023 lobbying expenses. Note how little was foreign policy related.

And read this delightful interview with Sen. Angus King [Ind-Maine] about when he was a young Senate staffer. Times have changed.

My SAIS colleague Charlie Stevenson distributes this almost daily news digest of foreign/defense/national security policy to “Stevenson’s army” via Googlegroups. I republish here, with occasional videos of my choice. To get Stevenson’s army by email, send a blank email (no subject or text in the body) to stevensons-army+subscribe@googlegroups.com. You’ll get an email confirming your join request. Click “Join This Group” and follow the instructions to join. Once you have joined, you can adjust your email delivery preferences (if you want every email or a digest of the emails).
