Indeed, the failure to act on the G7 decision last summer to direct $50B of interest on Russia’s frozen assets to help Ukraine verges on dithering in the face of emergency. @ACGeoEcon @ACEurope @ACEurasia https://t.co/f8bzffmYgG

One of the many peculiar aspects of Russia’s war against Ukraine is the idea that a state protecting its borders and security in accordance with international law is somehow ‘escalatory’. https://t.co/BEpC64fIhg

Iran may transfer ballistic missiles to Russia within the next few days, according to Bloomberg. The specific quantity and type of missiles are not mentioned. The US and allies have repeatedly warned Tehran against shipments. https://t.co/Be03qqq2fw

"The US and allies have repeatedly warned Tehran"
Like their warnings mean anything at this stage, all empty words and Iran is realising that, all of America's enemies are growing emboldened by Biden and Jake's weakness. What more can they do to Iran anyway, they're already sanctioned to hell and when some Iranian ballistic missile decapitates more Ukrainian children, all we'll hear from America is "don't use our long-range missiles on military targets in Russia, that would be escalatory"
