GoodFellows: Conversations from the Hoover Institution

NOTE

Adapting to Change in War Strategies

Technological advantages in war become obsolete as enemies quickly adapt, creating anxiety in Ukraine about sustaining the war. The fear in Kiev is that continuing the conflict may lead to Ukrainian defeat. The suggested strategy is akin to the Korean War where eventually both sides need to cease fighting. This doesn't imply peace or territorial concessions, but rather an end to fighting, which Ukraine may require by the middle of next year. To prosper, Ukraine needs guarantees akin to what South Korea received after 1953, leading to its economic transformation. The influence of figures like Tucker Carlson and Marjorie Taylor Greene on the foreign policy of a possible second Trump administration is less significant than feared by Europeans.
