» The news from the front line, the border between Cambodia and Thailand, has a depressing familiarity. Another ceasefire is agreed upon, but it is accompanied by hostile statements from officials of both governments, and, in the past, such statements have led to aggressive action by one or both military forces. This opens the door to armed combat. People are killed or injured, property and infrastructure damaged, and people's livelihoods disrupted. We need to break this cycle; we need real peace.

» There's a strange unease in Europe. Part of it reflects the misplaced nervousness reacting to Donald Trump's re-election as the US President. Naturally there's the predictable political nail biting that a new virulent and assertive US administration will be tough on European trade deficits as well as not instinctively committed to writing blank checks for Ukrainian military aid.
