In this latest podcast with Ben and Carlo (Billy Bob couldn’t make it tonight) I talked about the significance of the T-72/Abrams showdown and Macron’s comments about sending troops to Ukraine, and the impact this could have on the NATO club.

Any thoughts on the new and improved Belgorod offensive?
Yes, I think it is a much less successful attempt to repeat the earlier Belgorod incursion, which at the time I called a farcical attempt to recreate Bay of Pigs. They’re probably trying to create bad press and embarrassment for Putin during the election, which is a pretty dumb way to waste finite military equipment, even if they don’t care about the Russian defectors driving them.
