The U.S. and Russia were both backing the same candidate in Hungary’s recent election (and he lost). Peter Magyar’s victory is great news for Hungary, Ukraine, Europe and small-d democrats everywhere. Read more: michaelmcfaul.substack.com/p/viktor-orb...

Russia isn't the reason Trump wants Greenland.

Autocracies are rising. To compete with China & Russia in the 21st century, we need to return to the basics that underpinned Cold War success: strong democratic alliances, global institutions (which can and should be reformed), and renewed engagement and cooperation.

Three decades ago, democracy looked unstoppable. Today, Russia and China are rewriting the rules. My latest book, Autocrats vs. Democrats: China, Russia, America and the New Global Disorder lays out how we got here—and how the U.S. should respond. www.amazon.com/Autocrats-vs...

In 2018, after the Trump-Putin summit in Helsinki, I learned Russia wanted to interrogate me (and others) in exchange for US investigators questioning 12 Russian intelligence officers over electoral interference in 2016. The White House took nearly a day to reject the proposal.

Power matters, but it's not everything. In Autocrats vs Democrats, I argue that three factors have shaped US-China/US-Russia relations in the last 250 years: power, regime type AND leaders. The interaction of these three factors explains why some eras see cooperation, others see confrontation.

By disrupting the global economic order, we are making Beijing look like the rational, prudent alternative. Impressions matter. Right now, our global reputation is tanking while Beijing reaps the rewards. Watch in full: www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZy3...

I’m struck by how often Trump referred to Xi as his “friend” and a “great leader.” Xi Jinping, chairman of the Chinese Communist Party, is a dictator. He also offered no such reciprocal praise for Trump. That asymmetry makes Trump appear in a visibly weaker position.

Trump says Iran wants to negotiate, but he’s also called on Iranians to rise up and “take over” their government. Which is it? You can’t negotiate with the same regime you’re trying to replace — that’s absurd.

I don’t remember Trump talking about military action against Iran on the campaign trail. Or Venezuela. Or Greenland. The disconnect between Trump's actions abroad and how most Americans want the U.S. to act in the world is deeply troubling

You cannot claim to support law enforcement while cutting the programs they need.   The Trump Administration and House Republicans want to cut the ATF by $285 million. That's hundreds of positions lost and fewer tools and resources to keep people safe.
