The American public is under no illusions as to how long the war is likely to last, Ivo Daalder writes.

Could chaos in the US House of Representatives mean chaos for Ukraine? The Council's @IvoHDaalder joins Deep State Radio to discuss.

Democrats are more likely than Republicans to support continued US assistance to Ukraine, Council polling finds.

But new Council polling finds a majority still support sending additional arms to oust Russia.

The Chicago Council Survey findings come at a pivotal moment as Ukraine seeks further US commitment with no end to the war in sight.

The spate of civil-military crises is a product of countries dealing with their new positions in a shifting global order, Paul Poast argues.

"This is the last moment at which to pull the plug on Ukraine. It is absolutely vital we continue," Ivo Daalder says on CBS News.

It's not too soon to consider the role of accountability, particularly criminal accountability, in negotiations between Russia and Ukraine, David Scheffer writes.

"Once bullets and projectiles start flying, the variables at play multiply, and in the ensuing chaos there are limits to what can be controlled," Paul Poast writes.

Russia needs munitions for the war in Ukraine, Bruce Jentleson explains, while North Korea wants technology for its space program.
