Washington is making unexpected overtures to Moscow. In February, the United States opposed a United Nations resolution that condemned the Russian invasion of Ukraine and reaffirmed Ukraine’s territorial integrity. Just one week later, Washington halted the delivery of all military aid to Kyiv. This seven-day gap between the U.N. vote and the halt in aid marked a dramatic pivot in U.S. foreign policy – one that seems to signal a transition from containment of Russia to rapprochement with Russia.
