What can we make of the EU decision to issue a €90bn loan to Ukraine - without tapping into Russia's immobilised reserves? In my latest piece for @ecfr.eu I outline seven takeaways from the decision and why there is (much) more to it than meets the eye [Thread - 1/9] ecfr.eu/article/seve...

FINAL: No. 17 Indiana defeats No. 8 Illinois 63-10. As dominant of a performance as this stadium has ever seen, all things considered. Hoosiers are 4-0, 1-0 in Big Ten play. At Iowa next Saturday. #iufb

As expected, Trump and Putin leave Anchorage adrift. As I wrote Thursday for @cepa.org, the question now is as it has long been: can Europe take charge? cepa.org/article/unmo...

Europe has done everything possible to align itself with the US administration. That has avoided difficult decisions, but comes at a risk.

Elevating Poland and the Baltics to Tier 1 of the "AI Diffusion Framework" is a golden opportunity to strengthen US security, diplomacy, and tech leadership. In our latest for @cepa.org, @pablochavez.bsky.social and I argue the Trump admin. should take this chance. cepa.org/article/trum...

Trump Should Support European AI Allies
Recent US AI export restrictions exclude key NATO allies Poland and the Baltic states from the top tier. That’s a mistake.

How will the US' new AI chip export restrictions impact Europe?
The AI chip export rules issued by the Biden administration do not include Europe as a single market, which could cause issues experts say.

As expected, the Biden admin's decision to impose caps on how much US AI tech can flow to key EU and NATO members — especially Poland and the Baltics — is not going over well in Europe. cepa.org/article/bide...
