SIKORSKI: I'm skeptical about negotiating with Putin. First, Vladimir Putin is a man whose word and whose signature cannot be trusted. He has lied to us repeatedly: “These are not my men in Crimea,” remember? “I have absolutely no intention of invading Ukraine.” This is a man whose signature is on Russo-Ukrainian border treaty. How can we expect Putin to respect next treaty when he is already in breach of current ones? Second, when you've been dictator for over 20 years, everybody lies to you, and you always drop your maximalist demands too late, because you don't know true situation you are in. I also think dictators like Putin correctly understand that they cannot admit a mistake or withdraw from one without losing power. Therefore, I believe this war will be ended by someone else.








Benjamin Netanyahu: “We are at war with Hezbollah. In the last few weeks, our soldiers have killed over 600 terrorists. We are going to intensify the blows against Hezbollah. We are going to move faster now. We are not stopping. We will hit them.“ Give 'em hell, @netanyahu.
