It is unlikely that we will see any new policy changes on Ukraine or Israel between now and election day, barring unforeseen events. Of course, discussion and decision making will go on quietly behind the scenes. I think it is an encouraging sign that the Biden administration hasn't given a hard "no" to the Ukrainian request for extended-range strike power.

Another encouraging sign: More than 100 U.S. national-security officials and military leaders who served under Republican presidents released a letter this week endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris. There are friends of Ukraine on that list.

We will not go back, and neither will the brave people of Ukraine. Slava Ukraini!

UPDATE: today's NY Times

"More than 700 current and former national security leaders, as well as former military officials, endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris in a letter released on Sunday, arguing that only she had the temperament and values needed to serve as commander in chief.

"The signatories of the letter, which was organized by the group National Security Leaders for America, included former secretaries of state and secretaries of defense, former ambassadors and retired generals. They argued that former President Donald J. Trump posed a threat to both national security and the United States’ democratic system."
