ANALYSIS – Is Trump regretting his VP pick? Will Trump tell Vance he is “fired”? When former President Donald Trump selected J.D. Vance as his vice presidential candidate soon after surviving an assassination attempt, some called the choice bold and a doubling down on Trumpism.
I said he could help Trump make his case in 2024 and be the GOP standard bearer in 2028. Still, I also said I would have preferred Trump had picked a woman, and that I had some reservations about Vance as VP, including his youth and inexperience.
Australia and UK deepen security ties amid China worries. The United Kingdom has pledged 25 million pounds ($34 million) as part of a commitment to promote “peace and stability” in the Indo-Pacific, as it deepens a security pact with Australia amid continuing concerns about China's power and influence in the region.
NATO considering new battlegroups in Eastern Europe to deter Russia. NATO members are weighing whether to send fresh troops to the alliance's eastern and southeastern member countries, as Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg on Wednesday dismissed Moscow's claims that some of its forces are returning to their barracks.
PUTIN LIES ABOUT PULLING BACK TROOPS – Russia added 7k troops near Ukraine border, says US official. Satellite images captured in the last 48 hours seem to bolster skepticism the United States and its NATO allies have about the Russian assertions that it is withdrawing forces surrounding Ukraine.
HOW WARS BEGIN – Shelling breaks out in east Ukraine as West and Moscow dispute troop moves. Russian-backed rebels and Ukrainian forces traded accusations on Thursday that each had fired across the ceasefire line in eastern Ukraine, raising alarm at a time when Western countries have warned of the possibility of a Russian invasion any day.
SEAMLESS ALLIED INTEGRATION – US Marine, British F-35Bs flew seamlessly with Israeli, Italian, Japanese F-35s during Queen Elizabeth Deployment.

National Security
THANK YOU, MR. BIDEN – US warns Americans abroad not to count on a rescue. In Ukraine and Ethiopia, Biden officials have made clear that the 2021 Kabul airlift was a “unique” operation that won't be repeated.
Naval presence in Mediterranean and Black seas at highs rarely seen since Cold War. Warships are transiting the Mediterranean Sea and nearby waters in numbers rarely seen in recent decades, adding another dimension to the ongoing tensions between NATO and Russia over Moscow's military buildup along Ukraine's borders.
China Threat

Russia Threat
Specialized US Army unit helps Russia's neighbors train against large-scale attacks. If tiny Latvia's single active army brigade ever came under attack by Russian forces, its task would be keeping them on their heels while staying alive long enough for allies to send reinforcements, the brigade commander said.
USAF sends F-35s, B-52s, F-15s to Europe as NATO Ministers opt for more deterrence. The U.S. Air Force sent F-35 fighters to Germany days after a B-52 Bomber Task Force arrived in England to reassure Allies amid increasing tensions in Eastern Europe.

Mike Kafka, director of Defense Press Operations.

Russia Threat – Ukraine
PUTIN LIES ABOUT PULLING BACK TROOPS – Russia added 7k troops near Ukraine border, says US official. Satellite images captured in the last 48 hours seem to bolster skepticism the United States and its NATO allies have about the Russian assertions that it is withdrawing forces surrounding Ukraine.
Russia ‘likely' to launch ‘limited' military attack against Ukraine, says Estonian intelligence. Russia is continuing to move troops to the Ukrainian border and will likely launch a “limited” military attack against the country, the head of the Estonian Foreign Intelligence Service said on Wednesday.
HOW WARS BEGIN – Shelling breaks out in east Ukraine as West and Moscow dispute troop moves. Russian-backed rebels and Ukrainian forces traded accusations on Thursday that each had fired across the ceasefire line in eastern Ukraine, raising alarm at a time when Western countries have warned of the possibility of a Russian invasion any day.
Iran Threat
Hezbollah claims it's making drones and missiles in Lebanon; chief offers export opportunity. Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said Hezbollah has worked to improve its military capabilities, revealing that last summer, Hezbollah fighters conducted the largest training exercise since the group was formed in 1982.
Military and Space
SEAMLESS ALLIED INTEGRATION – US Marine, British F-35Bs flew seamlessly with Israeli, Italian, Japanese F-35s during Queen Elizabeth Deployment.
