Why the Timing of Ukraine's Attacks Could Not Be Better: The Red Sea, China, and Europe Crossover - William Spaniel

Ukraine had been working on this week's attacks for months, but the timing of them could not be better. With an important NATO summit looming, the situation did not look good for Ukraine. Today, we look into the complicated situation along the Red Sea and its hidden connections to the war in Europe. The White House has become very nervous about the U.S. Navy's ability, which has second-order effects on the importance of armaments for Taiwan. As a result, it seemed unlikely that the United States would greenlight further aid to Ukraine at the NATO summit. Now, perhaps there is a fighting chance.
