Kasparov: Putin’s Speech was ‘Weak’ and ‘Pathetic’ Next to Biden’s | NBC | February 23, 2023

Almost, but not quite. The capability exists, as it has since the beginning, but the will to state the mission clearly is still lacking. But there is progress toward the inevitable admission that the only road to peace is through Ukrainian victory. https://t.co/WmWEQ9SdzL

Good piece, MJ. One issue today, nine years later, is that so many of the people who missed or ignored the warnings, or who tried to appease Putin, are still in positions of influence and power today repeating the same wrong things. https://t.co/y9HLX2mTBZ

Putin’s whining, mendacious lecture today sounded even more pathetic contrasted with EU leaders in Munich, Biden and Zelensky in Ukraine, and Biden and Duda in Warsaw. A dictator’s fear and hatred versus the democratic world’s optimism and unity.
