Three CIA Officers Talk Russia Ukraine from Kyiv: Glenn Corn, Ralph Goff, Ryan Fugit
Q: What's your best guess on when you see this war ending?
Ralph mentions that the worst case could be a few years with many more deaths, while the best case scenario might be just months, stating that Putin will need to be forced to the table for negotiations.
Russia - China - India at SCO & US Strategic Mistakes: RH Assessment with 30+ Year Political Officer
Q: Do you think that what we're seeing is just a temporary reset between India and China?
No, I don't think so. I think this will be a short-term thing. India has its own foreign policy, its own objective, it wants to be a major power, not subordinate to China or Russia.
Russia - China - India at SCO & US Strategic Mistakes: RH Assessment with 30+ Year Political Officer
Q: How would you advise someone in the US government right now on a path forward with India?
You have to look at the totality of our relations with India. It's not just political, it's seriously economic now. The tariffs are a blockage of our relationship and are making it worse, not better.
