Taiwan: defend Ukraine to defend us; No tanks for Russia victory parade; Harari: Russian can't win; Georgian democracy on the line; America, the "scientific superpower"
Jaushieh Joseph Wu, Foreign Minister of Taiwan, in Foreign Affairs:
With China and Russia in such close alignment, it is all the more imperative for democracies to act in coordination. To that end, the democracies of the world, led by the United States, must sustain their military, economic, and humanitarian aid to Ukraine. The objective of this support goes beyond returning to the status quo ante in the European continent. By helping Ukraine, democracies can increase their relative strength against the Chinese-Russian coalition.

Yuval Noah Harari to Ian Bremmer: “If Russia allowed to win [in Ukraine], that is the end of the global order as we have known it for decades.”
Francis Fukuyama, American Purpose: Democracy in the Republic of Georgia is in imminent peril, and the United States and Europe must act quickly to save it.
Governments that previously sought to maintain some distance from Russia have felt emboldened to express their pro-Moscow sympathies more openly, and one of these is Georgia.

The United States and Europe have to wake up to the fact that perceived weakness in Washington has given encouragement to anti-democratic actors not just in Ukraine, but all over the world.
