For years, the United States has tried everything to get Taiwan onto a “porcupine strategy,” making the island a pricklier target that might make China think twice about attacking it, FP’s @JackDetsch and @RobbieGramer write. foreignpolicy.com/2024/04/25/con…
On Tuesday, Congress passed a massive foreign aid bill that allocates $8 billion for the Indo-Pacific, including $2 billion for Taiwan and other allies to purchase weapons, FP’s @JackDetsch and @RobbieGramer report. foreignpolicy.com/2024/04/25/con…
A good thread from @JackDetsch on munitions production and what this means for the trajectory of the war in #Ukraine for 2024.

V interesting from @JackDetsch. "Russia is on track to produce 3.5 million rounds in 2024 and might be able to surge to produce 4.5 million rounds by the end of the year." foreignpolicy.com/2024/04/23/ukr…
Even though Congress passed the aid package, most of the artillery Ukraine needs won’t get to the front until next year, FP’s @JackDetsch writes. foreignpolicy.com/2024/04/23/ukr…
WASHINGTON (AP) — Biden clears way for Pentagon to send $1 billion in military aid to Ukraine, with shipment to begin in 'next few hours.'
JUST IN: U.S. will send $1B in new military aid to Ukraine, including HIMARS, 155mm, Javelin, Bradley’s: Pentagon In the wake of the Senate’s passage of $60B in US military aid to Ukraine, pkg is the largest since last year.
My new piece, citing @CSBiggers' analysis, explains how Iran kept up its story that Israel didn't hit anything: they substituted a (completely different) radar for the one Israel struck to make it look like the S-300 battery at Natanz is still operational. economist.com/middle-east-an…
New: New aid package for Ukraine once Congress passes funding is expected to be worth around $1 billion and admin officials have indicated to lawmakers that it will likely include long-range ATACMS for the first time. with @MarquardtA cnn.com/2024/04/23/pol…
