Council President Ivo Daalder joins the UN Dispatch podcast to discuss the history of Finland, Sweden, and NATO, and the next steps for each to join the alliance.
"Few modern leaders have miscalculated as badly as the Russian president has," Ivo Daalder writes. "Ukraine’s acceptance into NATO would represent the final defeat of his failed strategy."
Putin's use of a nuclear weapon would "fundamentally change the nature of the conflict and the threat that he poses to global security," Ivo Daalder tells Fox Business.
If Putin’s strategy in Ukraine was to scare other nations out of joining NATO, that plan has backfired. Ivo Daalder explores the issue with MSNBC’s Ayman Mohyeldin.
They are “extraordinarily capable militaries. They have long had [...] a posture of armed neutrality, not unarmed neutrality,” says Ivo Daalder on MSNBC.
“The war crime of destroying cultural heritage is yet another reason to say ‘nyet’ to Russian recolonization,” write Thomas Weiss and James Cuno in the Wall Street Journal.
"My suspicion is that Russian morale is so low that it’s going to be very hard for them to make real progress," Council President Ivo Daalder shares on Deep State Radio.
