Ukraine, Iraq and a Black Sea Strategy
Ukraine, Iraq and a Black Sea Strategy
by george friedman: ceo, Stratfor:
The United States is, at the moment, off balance. It faces challenges in the Syria-Iraq theater as well as challenges in Ukraine. It does not have a clear response to either. It does not know what success in either theater would look like, what resources it is prepared to devote to either, nor whether the consequences of defeat would be manageable.
