Stevenson’s army, February 1

Americans trust nurses the most, members of Congress the least.

– John Bolton doesn’t trust Donald Trump

Ukraine can trust EU, given aid deal

– Shippers can’t trust freedom of the seas

– Retired 2 star says US learned wrong lessons from recent wars

– Paul Pillar says US is repeating mistakes about Iran

-Journalist interviews Houthis

– Reuters says US uses exercises to prepare for defense of Taiwan

-Politico has story about Sullivan China speech

– Axios lists likely Trump advisers on China

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).
