En imponerende mann besøkte Oslo i dag. Interessant å høre hva han hadde å si om utsiktene for fred: Ikke så gode så lenge Putin ikke vil ha fred, sa han til meg.

Donald Trump er visst igjen bekymret for alle soldatene som blir drept i #Ukraina. Empati? Noen som har sett et fnugg av empati fra den mannen tidligere?

Om #Trump er blitt sagt av mange ledere i flere uker nå: «Ord er ikke handling. La oss se hva han gjør først.» Nå når det viser seg at handlingene i noen tilfeller er verre enn hva han sa, hva tenker man da?

Wonder if there is any Champagne left in Moscow after this weekend. #Putin has shown he was smart to hang in there and wait. Now, NATO is divided, Europe is in Panic and Russia likely on its way to being welcomed back to international fora. And Trump pressuring Ukraine to accept a protection racket

Ellevill seanse i Det ovale kontor nå. Trump, en sørafrikansk forretningsmann og hans sønn forsøker å forklare folk hvor korrupte alle andre er.

One of today’s best pieces of news, largely ignored by most media organizations here: The Baltic States, and hence the EU are now totally energy independent from #Russia. No more blackmail!

I kveld trenger jeg å lese litt mer om individer som ønsker diktatur fremfor demokrati. De som tviholder på å si sine radikale meninger på nettet og foran Stortinget, tilsynelatende uvitende om at i et autoritært regime vil de bli fratatt nettopp disse rettighetene, og andre. Litteraturforslag?

Trumps melding til Putin nettopp sier vel omtrent alt om kunnskapsnivået i Det hvite hus akkurat nå.

The White House of Biden has been true to the theory of the Escalation Ladder. Only now, crucial parts of the Shadow Fleet is being targeted. Nothing has worked to deter Putin so far. Makes you wonder if the Kennan theorems are effective at all when dealing with usurping madmen.

Under valgkampen lovet Trump mye. Trolig altfor mye. Jeg tror det er i dette lys hans skandaløse utspill om Grønland, Panama og Canada må tolkes. Les min siste analyse her: www.tv2.no/mening_og_an...?

Det å bli del av USA høres kanskje fint ut. Men kanskje grønlendere som mener dette bør ta seg en prat med puertoricanerne. Spesielt hvordan de følte støtten etter orkanen Maria var. Og det at de ikke har full stemmerett.

Det er bare å forberede seg. Hvis de første fire år var spinnville, starter straks fire nye år med Trump, og de tror jeg blir verre. I dag var bare en forsmak.

Some timeless wisdom confirmed by the last few hours of events in Syria: 1) Autocratic dictatorships will always go belly up in a dramatic boom. 2) Alliances with Russia are basically worthless. 3) Always expect the unexpected

I interviewed Lavrov a few times. No big deal and nothing to make a fuss about. He can be a bit grumpy but maybe that’s because he didn’t like my questions. I’m sure he and Tucker will have a great time together, though.

Nå haster det for Putin
Men den russiske presidenten er ikke alene om å tråkke på gassen. Alle parter i krigen vet at om en måneds tid kan det være duket for store omveltninger.

What are the chances that the rebel offensive in Syria is Turkey’s play to get Russia out of the country, and see if it also might make a decisive shift in Ukraine?

Tbilisi is Maidan 2014 right now. The confrontation will only get worse as police seems to be using more violence against protesters. And at the moment when it gets out of control and live bullets start flying, the Kremlin emplaced regime will be toast.

The rebel offensive in Syria was the last thing Putin needed. And he won’t have the resources to prop up the regime this time. AND Hezbollah has been crushed. All of this known to rebels of all colours. It will be a mess.

Here’s an idea for news media struggling to survive in the new post-post modern world: bring an option to pay per article through Google/ApplePay. Am sick & tired of having to go through subscribe, then cancel, then coping with spam for ages just for really wanting to read a specific piece.

A prediction for what Trump’s peace plan might look like: lots of blustering, lots of calls to Putin. Brief ceasefire. Then the whole thing falls apart. Will still be portrayed as success, but “both sides to blame”. Then he has reason to forget a war that in his mind doesn’t exist and stop funding.
