Putin’s New Hobby: Arm-Twisting for Arm Control
In a dazzling diplomatic ballet, the forthcoming U.S.-Russian summit on Ukraine offers a potential breakthrough in arms control treaties. If progress is made, the Russian president could claim he's 'engaging on wider peace issues,' which is just a fancy way of saying, 'Look, ma, I’m practically a peacemaker!' It's like negotiating world peace with a guy whose other hobby is moving invisible borders.

(1 of 3)Russia’s plan for ‘wider peace issues’ sounds less like diplomacy and more like a prisoner's dilemma where Putin already holds all the cards. But cheers for trying—next up, arms control or just arm wrestling?

If Putin says he’s ‘engaging on wider peace issues,’ check your pulse—you might be in an alternate universe where bears file tax returns.
