SoD Austin initiated the conversation with RU Defense Minister Andrei Belousov. Martyanov of course argues the conversation most likely was not only about the ATACMs but in general RU preponderance on the battlefield.
I don´t know if Martyanov would suggest some form of scant rapprochement? Or at least containment to not let everything get blown up.
Thank you for the link to the article from Defense News. I hadn’t caught that. It’s good to know that someone finally picked up the phone to talk to the Russians.
