Dear Readers,

I recently had the pleasure of speaking with Christiane Amanpour and Walter Isaacson on how the upcoming election may impact the American security assistance for Ukraine. This interview included discussion on how a second Trump administration would abandon our allies and how Ukraine, the United States, and the West may work together to achieve a meaningful victory and resolution to the Russo-Ukrainian War.

This conversation was largely based on my recent piece in Foreign Affairs. You can view the interview on the PBS Youtube page or on the PBS website.
