"Last week, the U.S. president seemed open to linking Ukraine peace talks with a new arms control negotiation. That’s just what the Russian leader wants because it increases the chance that Trump will give away the farm."

Washington Monthly · Trump is About to Step on Putin’s TrapBy Paul Glastris

Some Great Work from C4ADS as usual in uncovering this. An investigative report by them revealed a Chinese company that owns a #california manufacturing plant sending hundreds of dual-use electronics to #Russia. At least one component manufactured by the company was found in a #russianweapon guidance system that was recovered on the #Ukrainian battlefield. More work needs to be done in the #sanctions and general #EndUser and #Exportcontrol arenas.
