A reader sends me a photo of the James Caird, the 22ft lifeboat in which Ernest Shackleton and his crew sailed 800 storm-tossed miles from Antarctica to South Georgia in 1916. It is a sobering sight, especially for sailors like me who have great difficulty navigating a boat from one side of a reservoir to the other.

Last Sunday, Russian missiles struck the International Center for Peacekeeping and Security at Yavoriv in western Ukraine, a mere 25 kilometres from the Polish border. The strikes were carried out with cruise missiles launched by Russian bombers from inside Russian airspace. The attack killed at least 35 people and injured 134; three former UK special forces soldiers were reportedly

If Ukraine lasts for another thousand years, people will still say, ‘This was their finest hour.' The Ukrainians' magnificent defiance will shape their country's image in the world for generations to come, as the lone stand led by Winston Churchill did for Britain. But what almost certainly awaits Ukrainians in the next few days is far worse than what the British went through in 1940. They are about to face a Russian campaign of long-distance bombardment and siege to try to break their will to resist... Читать дальше...

Europe has been looking to Azerbaijan, Israel and other countries to transit gas via Turkey, but assuming political obstacles can be overcome, the massive investments needed will take time to realize.

The administration's horror over Putin's war is not merely performative, but functional—in the service of realigning with Iran

The Russian army is 13 miles from my rather fancy Airbnb flat on Khreshchatyk, Kyiv's main thoroughfare, where I am typing this. The hot tub doesn't work, but there is a war on. Every now and then the air raid sirens howl and artillery crumps sound; however, the last time I felt incoming through my boots was three days ago. The electricity is still on, the internet is still on, and I still wear my neon-orange, lucky beanie around the city. I am not a complete idiot... Читать дальше...

Ukrainian independent journalist Volodymyr Solohub attempts to inform the world of the truth during Russian’s ongoing invasion but fears President Vladimir Putin could attack the press at any moment.

Shortly before Mr Zelensky began his speech on March 16th, Russian television broadcast an address given by Vladimir Putin, his counterpart. Where Mr Zelensky appealed to his listeners in the name of all Ukrainians, Mr Putin set Russian against Russian. "Fifth columnists and traitors," he snarled, would be spat out "like midges that flew into [the Russian people's] mouth". The need for cleansing Russia of such "scum" was evoked with disconcertingly familiar fascist rhetoric. "I... Читать дальше...

First, there will always be fresh terror from Putin. A show trial. Chernobyl. Chem/bio insinuations. Sometimes I feel we go looking for new terror to control us when there is already terror enough. Until we take control of the pacing and strategy of this war, the fears Putin creates for us are boxing us in. This has been the Russian strategy from the start. I don't know why we are not more clear on this. It is the clear reason why we have so much intelligence... Читать дальше...

Three things are needed if South Sudan is to keep moving toward peace.

Ian Bond et al, CER

The EU's response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine was resolute. Divisions between member-states melted away within days, and the EU imposed unprecedented economic sanctions on Russia. In co-ordination with the US, the UK and other democratic powers, the Union has moved to cripple the Russian financial system, including the central bank's capacity to use much of its foreign reserves to maintain economic stability, and banned EU companies from exporting critical goods to Russia, including in the high-tech sector.
