Thank you! Yes, obviously there are areas that anyone can agree with. I think that even in Putin’s arguments, there are some we have to acknowledge as cogent. And I do so in my article.

I have written about Putin’s desire to join NATO elsewhere; I didn’t think it was relevant for this piece. It could have been more expansive, but I try to keep the article close to 5 minutes to make them more digestible, as few read longer articles.

Thank you for reading and for the thoughtful comment!
