YW. Mick Ryan Substack - “Future Doctrina” , Philips P. O’Brien’s “Philips newsletter” and TimMack’s “The Counteroffensive” are all excellent reads if you are following the Ukraine war. Sir Lawrence Friedman (and his son Sam) also have one in which Lawrence discusses foreign affairs - primarily Ukraine lately - and Sam (£) writes about British politics
