In eying aggression, Putin envying American tactics

Putin might wish to mimic his U.S. counterparts with an equally cavalier disregard for international law, however, Russia of 2022 is not the Soviet Union at the height of the Cold War.

The next Ukrainian offensive

OpinionBY GWYNNE DYER

Do not be distracted by the Russian missiles and drones bombarding Ukrainian cities. They are more a temper tantrum than a strategy because the Ukrainian electricity supply system is among the least vulnerable in the world.

Cuban missile crisis provides 60 years of lessons

OpinionBY ROBIN COLLINS AND SYLVIE LEMIEUX

The possibility of Russia’s use of nuclear weapons in the Ukraine war has led to comparisons with the Cuban Missile Crisis 60 years ago this month, in which, for 13 days, humanity stood on the brink of World War III. The crisis passed because U.S. president John F. Kennedy, left, and Soviet Union president Nikita Khrushchev, right, engaged in crisis diplomacy and negotiated a solution to the problem of the Soviets installing nuclear missiles in Cuba. *Image courtesy of Wikimedia Commons*
