Putins mercenaries’ man the shadow fleet. Through fake job interviews and more than 2000 crew lists Danwatch and our international partners are now able to tell exactly when, why and where Russian mercenaries man tankers from the shadow fleet. Three articles out today. In Danish. Read here.

Is it just me or does this feel like Groundhog Day?

The current geopolitical standoff feels like a game of hot potato: Putin on one side, Ukraine and Europe on the other, each trying to toss it to the opponent, hoping not to be the one left holding it. The hot potato is Donald Trump.

We've built a comprehensive database of Russia's shadow fleet, including how many oil tankers in that fleet are now sanctioned. Of the 343 ships we track, 264 are now sanctioned, which means 79 are still unsanctioned. The EU in particular needs to sanction more ships. With @econharris.bsky.social

They were chosen because they are shameless and incompetent, and their shameless incompetence is why they will remain.

When I wrote my camps book, people sometimes had difficulty understanding how concentration-camp regimes were proud of what they were doing and wanted attention for it, even as they also hoped to keep many aspects secret and terrorize vulnerable classes. Anyway, this is what that looks like.

The Kyiv Independent successfully ordered American chips through Russian suppliers in February 2025, proving that dozens of Russian microelectronics suppliers find ways to circumvent U.S. and European bans and resell imported chips to arms manufacturers.

As Trump makes concessions to Russia, he is showing weakness on a level unprecedented in modern US history. His position is so weak that it is unlikely to convince anyone. Trump is a sheep in wolf’s clothing. The wolves can tell the difference "The Weak Strongman" snyder.substack.com/p/the-weak-s...

Trump likes being #2, he likes doing the PR work, being in front of the camera, getting the adulation, but serving the boss. Musk will dominate him at home and Putin will dominate him abroad. He will deliver their lines, as he has just done for Putin in shocking fashion, and does for Musk every day.

My thoughts on the Russian-American talks on Ukraine, without Ukraine. The simplest interpretation of the available facts is that the Americans are using Russian violence to try to exploit Ukraine. snyder.substack.com/p/peace-or-p...

I think it's the first case in human history where a nation fighting for its survival against a major aggressor is being forced—by a non-combatant partner—into paying Versailles-style reparations over military aid that had earlier been provided purposefully at no cost.
