Foreign Policy Blogging at OTB

Two Great Articles on the Ukraine Situation

In the post I draw attention to two fine articles on the Ukraine situation, one by Fred Kaplan in Salon and the other by Lawrence Freedman at War on the Rocks. Both are well worth reading and essentially conclude that although U. S. response to the situation in Ukraine has been far from perfect many of the criticisms being leveled at the president over it by his political opponents are hyperventilating. Approaches and criteria are laid out for evaluating the situation and the response.
