Should NATO Admit Ukraine?
Open to Debate
The West Should Appease Putin by Cutting a Deal Quickly
I would say that Russia has already been dealt a strategic defeat. Ukraine consists of 44 plus million people who want nothing to do with Russia and have left the Russian fold for good. The question is when and how that reality finds a stable equilibrium. I'm not promoting the possibility that Ukraine could one day join NATO just as we never recognise the Baltics as part of the Soviet Union. There are now members of NATO and free and independent democracies. Let's play the long game here. Let's work to get Ukraine back in control of its territory. But my judgement says that that outcome is best achieved ultimately at the negotiating table not on the battlefield.
