*Responsible Statecraft:* *Biden to name a US military operation for Ukraine* Amid the news about the admin’s multi-year weapons investment, a general will be appointed for a separate command, too. Two things that point to the notion that Washington is supporting a long war in Ukraine, and truly doesn’t think there will be a diplomatic solution or cessation of violence there anytime soon: one, the $3 billion in recently announced military transfers is a “multi-year military investment” including weapons that won’t be available via defense contractors for at least three years.
