Must-watch: Finland's President Stubb (LSE PhD, former PM) explains our changing world order with rare clarity.

Fresh from meeting Trump, he outlines:
• His "Triangle of Power" theory (West-East-South)
• A concrete Ukraine ceasefire plan (April 20th)
• Why cooperation trumps conflict for global challenges

#AIConversation: a #conversationwithdeepseek 70b:

Q: what would you say, why did the #Ukraine #conflict escalate and what to do to #deescalate it?
<think>
Okay, so I need to figure out why the Ukraine conflict escalated and how to deescalate it. Hmm, where do I start?

I remember that the conflict has been going on for a while. It started in 2014 with some protests, right? That's when #Crimea was annexed by #Russia. But now it's gotten much worse since
February 2022 because Russia invaded Ukraine more aggressively.

Why did it escalate so much this time? Maybe there are deeper reasons. I think it has to do with historical ties between Russia and Ukraine. They were part of the Soviet Union
together, so there's a lot of shared history, but also some tensions, especially over Ukrainian independence.

Another thing is #NATOexpansion. After the #ColdWar, #NATO started including more Eastern #European countries. #Russia didn't like that because it felt threatened by #military #alliances
getting closer to its #borders. So when #Ukraine considered joining #NATO, maybe #Russia saw that as a direct threat and decided to act.

There's also the issue of pro-Russian #separatists in eastern #Ukraine. Since 2014, they've been fighting against the Ukrainian government, and Russia has supported them. That ongoing
#conflict probably kept tensions high and made things worse over time.

In terms of deescalating, I'm not sure what can be done. Maybe a #ceasefire would help stop the immediate #violence
But how do you get both sides to agree?

They might need some kind of
#mediator or #peacetalks facilitated by other countries or organizations like the #UN.

#Economic #sanctions were imposed on Russia because of their actions, but maybe easing those could be an incentive for deescalation.

Though I'm not sure if that would work without other measures in place.

#Ukraine's #sovereignty is really important here.

They should have the right to make their own decisions about alliances and security without interference from bigger powers like Russia
or NATO.

I think a long-term solution needs to address those underlying issues, maybe through #negotiations where both sides can express their concerns. But it's complicated because there are so
many historical and political factors at play. Plus, you have external actors involved, which might make it harder to reach an agreement.

Overall, it seems like the conflict escalated due to a mix of historical tensions, security concerns, and internal Ukrainian politics.

#Deescalating would require careful diplomacy, possibly involving third parties, to find a compromise that respects Ukraine's sovereignty while addressing #Russia's #fear about #NATOexpansion.

</think>

The Ukraine conflict has deepened due to a complex interplay of historical, political, and security factors. To deescalate, a multifaceted approach is necessary:

1. **Immediate Measures**: Implementing a #ceasefire under international mediation can halt the violence. Organizations like the #UN could facilitate this process.

2. **Diplomatic Engagement**: #Peace talks involving Ukraine, Russia, and mediators are crucial. These should address security concerns, including NATO's expansion and regional
stability.

3. **Economic Incentives**: Easing sanctions on Russia might provide an incentive for deescalation, contingent upon reciprocal actions from Russia.

4. **#Sovereignty #Respect**: Upholding Ukraine's right to #selfdetermination and international relations is essential.

5. **Long-term Solutions**: Negotiations should consider historical ties and political tensions, ensuring a balance between Ukraine's autonomy and regional #security dynamics.

In summary, #deescalation requires careful #diplomacy, addressing both immediate concerns and underlying issues through mediated talks and mutual incentives.

The Trump administration is treating governance and international relations and trade like a two yearold having a tantrum. You respond to a child`s tantrum by sitting them on the "naughty step" and ensuring they sit there until they regain control of themselves. You never punish them or try to "negotiate" with them because the tantrums escalate out of control.

The latest video from @anderspuck is a must watch for all citizens of countries in the NATO alliance, not just the USA.

Donald Trump is accelerating the change of the Post-WWII world order. We citizens outside the USA need to be very aware. And #Ukraine is going to be the key to the outcome.

"You've heard of Project 2025, but there's another framework that may be even more important for understanding the current assault on Western democracies. "Project Russia" is a series of books published between 2005 and 2010, and it outlines a strategic vision for total war on the West, against democracies, and against the US dollar and other fiat currencies.

Nearly unknown to Western analysts, the concepts described in Project Russia increasingly reflect the events we see playing out on a daily basis: a war over competing worldviews with capture of media, the use of podcasts and other alternative media to challenge the mainstream press, and the emergence of a new class of unelected 'elite' demagogues who seem to be taking control of global affairs. This episode analyzes the four original Project Russia books and offers 'deep dives' into specific areas of the texts."—@davetroy

“British and US spooks warn ‘international world order is under largest threat’ since Cold War”

by Ceren Sagir in Morning Star @MorningStar

A Stop The War Coalition spokesperson told the Star: “The spymasters would do better to act to stop Israel’s genocide in Gaza, seek a peaceful solution in Ukraine & rein in the arms race and the cold war against China.”

Continued thread

…tougher & blunter…than the public #ForeignPolicy doc, the secret addendum, dated April 11,2023, claims the #US is leading a coalition of “unfriendly countries” aimed at weakening #Russia bc Moscow is “a threat to Western global hegemony.” It says the outcome of Russia’s #war in #Ukraine will “to a great degree determine the outlines of future #WorldOrder,” a clear indication Moscow sees the result of its invasion as bound w/its ability—& other #authoritarian nations—to impose its will globally.

#Trump Threatens to Upend #International Order

Trump suggested that he would incite #Russia to attack “delinquent” #UnitedStates #allies, foreshadowing potentially far-reaching changes in the #WorldOrder if he wins the White House again.

Soon after Trump took office, his staff explained how #NATO’s mutual defense obligations worked. (The fact that he had to have it explained is sick).
