Letter from retired defence attaché among best of 2022 in FT . Yesterday posted on Twitter today on mastodon. An experiment in traction.
@simonc A sobering read on Russia - but I was also interested in the letter regarding moving away from reliance on the US dollar. I remember seeing someone make the case years ago that Iraq switching from the dollar for its oil sales being part of the dispute that lead to the US led war.
@simonc you might have found this getting more traction on mastodon if you had included an image description. That would enable people with visual impairments to hear the text in the image, and is an inclusive move many on Mastdon look for. A lack of image descriptions means some people who see it won’t boost it on principle.
@simonc it’s a damning read, agree with its sentiment.
