“‘Transactional’ has become a pejorative. At the end of the day we all do transactions." My interview with India's foreign minister Jaishankar, a (cynical?) realist with a sharp tongue. Conclusion: India is enjoying the West's disarray - for now https://t.co/TUwb31UoT0 via @ft

“With each day it’s harder to wage war - but if we surrender it will not improve our situation.” It’s an agonising prospect but make no mistake, Ukrainians are preparing to fight on without America @hallbenjamin @ChristopherJM https://t.co/09KYq0friI via @ft

Worth rereading this @ftweekend essay by Jonathan Powell on how to contain a recalcitrant Russia - "We need to find a way of addressing underlying Russian concerns — without compromising the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine" https://t.co/7W114XzMse via @ft

The retreat of USAID opens a huge opportunity for China in Africa. Outstanding and important reporting by @nickswicks on the revamping of Mao’s ‘freedom’ railway in Zambia https://t.co/T6UabKAKRU via @ft

Excellent column by @gideonrachman on how Ukraine could yet - just - stay in the fight even if America gives up on it https://t.co/0dhkNB2fam via @ft

A repeated line I heard in Kyiv was that it was fine for Ukrainians to criticise or mock @ZelenskyyUa but that when foreign leaders did it it just made everyone rally round him

“Americans can say whatever they want. We will do what we think is right.” A sobering dispatch from @AlecuRussell, who joined me in Kyiv for @FT last week. Ukraine’s double agony — Putin and now Trump https://t.co/rPy52iIQdx

Ukraine, a society under tremendous strain - caught between an implacable enemy and an unreliable ally. My dispatch from Kyiv https://t.co/TQ0d9quSyc via @ft

Special hat tip to @FT Kyiv corr @ChristopherJM for leading this classic old-fashioned scoop involving politics, minerals & war. Ukraine can but hope this leads to a change of heart from the US over their desperate fight @gideonrachman https://t.co/NyRHA86vmY via @ft
