On April 19, Forward Defense senior US Marine Corps fellow Col John Barranco, and Forward Defense senior US Air Force fellow Lt Col Tyson Wetzel, were featured in a New York Times article titled, “More cautious, Russia embarks on new phase of Ukraine war.” The article cites their Atlantic Council military assessment, “How Ukraine can take the fight to Russia.”

Forward Defense leads the Atlantic Council’s US and global defense programming, developing actionable recommendations for the United States and its allies and partners to compete, innovate, and navigate the rapidly evolving character of warfare. Through its work on US defense policy and force design, the military applications of advanced technology, space security, strategic deterrence, and defense industrial revitalization, it informs the strategies, policies, and capabilities that the United States will need to deter, and, if necessary, prevail in major-power conflict.
