The
Diplomats
---------
On Tuesday afternoon, I met my partner Julia Ioffe for lunch at Le
Diplomate, Washington=E2=80=99s version of Balthazar, to welcome her back f=
rom her recent parental leave. Despite the various and seemingly incessant =
oscillations within the federal government and foreign policy community, th=
e town had an unmistakably ebullient, pre-cherry blossom season vibe=E2=80=
=94a reminder of how 60-degree weather can really lift spirits in late wint=
er. Either way, I couldn=E2=80=99t have been more excited to see my friend =
and colleague for the first time in months.
=C2=A0
We were sitting down to catch up, to commiserate over the global state of a=
ffairs, and to plot her editorial direction in this brave new world. Julia,=
after all, has been the foremost chronicler of the Ukraine war and the mos=
t perspicacious journalist on the blob beat, with reportage that captures b=
oth the high-minded ambitions and the sharp-elbowed politics of the federal=
bureaucracy.=C2=A0
=C2=A0
Mere days before our meeting, of course, Donald Trump, J.D. Vance, and Volo=
dymyr Zelensky had staged their tragic, off-script meeting at the White Hou=
se=E2=80=94a cascade of unfortunate and nearly surreal invective that could=
have been scripted by Armando Iannucci. Julia had been focusing on a diffe=
rent target before Vance and Trump browbeat the Ukrainian leader about thei=
r
view of foreign diplomacy and Oval Office etiquette, but that plan was out =
the window by the time the meeting reached its denouement. As Zelensky exit=
ed the Oval, Julia switched gears and endeavored to capture the full scope =
of the fallout from that disastrous confab.
=C2=A0
The first draft of the piece hit my inbox on Monday morning and I dove righ=
t in. Naturally, without fear or favor, Julia had surveyed top
opinion makers across town and unearthed a common leitmotif. While Democrat=
s were fulsome in their public praise of Zelensky, many grumbled privately =
that he had stepped on his own political rake amid this ostensible peace-ke=
eping summit. =E2=80=9CHe can be difficult, we know this,=E2=80=9D a former=
senior Biden administration official told Julia. =E2=80=9CHe=E2=80=99s stu=
bborn and he doesn=E2=80=99t take advice, and it=E2=80=99s really, really h=
ard for him to think creatively. Everyone has these problems; he just seems=
to
have a harder time hiding it than others.=E2=80=9D A Democratic foreign pol=
icy expert echoed the refrain. =E2=80=9CHe=E2=80=99s too arrogant,=E2=80=9D=
this person told Julia. =E2=80=9CThinks that if he can only get face to fa=
ce with Trump, he can charm him. It never works. Not for Zelensky, not for =
Macron.=E2=80=9D
=C2=A0
We published Apr=C3=A8s Zelensky ( https://puck.news/democrats-privately-fu=
me-over-zelenskys-oval-office-row/?utm_campaign=3DThe+Backstory+-+LEADS+%28=

) on Monday evening. Almost immediately, Puck=E2=80=99s always percolating =
Slack channel was alight with notes from our partners, such as Matt Belloni=
and Marion Maneker, declaring that they=E2=80=99d been deluged with praise=
from friends and subscribers about the piece. On Tuesday afternoon at Le D=
ip, I was thrilled to toast Julia=E2=80=99s success in person.=C2=A0
The shapeshifting situation in
Europe is only becoming more complex. By Friday, of course, Trump threatene=

is one of the great quagmires of our time, and it=E2=80=99s precisely what=
you should expect to read in Puck, as
narrated by the greatest interlocutor out there.
