It captures the promise of acknowledgements as well as their contradictions and limits. An acknowledgment should not signal the end of a commitment to think about land and territory.

How to explain this headline? This goes beyond so-called journalistic objectivity. I suspect NYT enjoys a little rage bait. #pretti #newyorktimes @nytpitchbot.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...
