A peace in Ukraine that puts America first must do more than stop the fighting: It must re-establish American credibility, demonstrate American primacy and strength, and ensure that Russia won’t attack Ukraine or its NATO neighbors in the future.

Jake Sullivan, the national security adviser, said in an interview that “we’ve just stuck with our theory, which is managed competition.” Trump and Xi Jinping might have other plans.

Sen. Marco Rubio, a longtime member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, appeared before the panel for a confirmation hearing Wednesday that was a lot friendlier than hearings for some of President-elect Trump's other nominees.

Biden says his administration successfully ‘managed’ frosty China relations to prevent outright conflict. Critics say he didn’t go nearly far enough.

Ukraine recently received a new Chinese ambassador, Ma Shengkun, and a new Ukrainian ambassador, Olexander Nechytaylo, has been appointed to China, although he has yet to receive agreement. Perhaps this development could bring some new dynamics to the Sino-Ukrainian relations.
