Media Coverage

The threat of a terrorist attack on America’s energy grid is growing, with attempts being reported at increasing rates. If it’s not terrorism, it could be adversarial nation-states.

Ladimer S. and Anna B. Nagurney: Appreciate column on Ukraine

Daily Hampshire Gazette, January 23, 2023

We would like to commend Dr. DavideGottsegen for his insightful column, “As war rolls on, support for Ukraine must continue,” in the Jan. 20 Gazette. He eloquently and correctly condenses the issues, outlines the over 1,000 year history of Ukraine and its people, and documents why Ukraine and Ukrainians are totally blameless in this unjustified, unprovoked war by Russia on this sovereign nation in Eastern Europe. As children of the Ukrainian diaspora, we learned about many of the topics noted in Gottsegen’s excellent column in our Ukrainian Saturday school classes on Ukraine, its language, culture, history, and religion. We are pleased and touched that he took the time and made the effort to share his wisdom with our community.

Tankers for the Pacific Fight: A Crisis in Capability

Tankers for the Pacific Fight: A Crisis in Capability

CIMSEC, January 23, 2023

The Department of Defense is projected to need on the order of one hundred tankers of various sizes in the event of a serious conflict in the Pacific.1 The DoD currently has access it can count on – assured access – to less than ten. Not only does the U.S. lack the tonnage required to support a major conflict in the Pacific, it has no identifiable roadmap to obtain it. Without enough fuel, the most advanced capabilities and ships – even nuclear-powered aircraft carriers – will hardly be available for use. This is a crisis in capability that requires urgent and effective action. There is little time to get a solution in place if speculation that conflict with China could happen this decade proves true. Thankfully, this is a problem that can have a timely and affordable solution. However, the U.S. needs to move past conventional thinking and long-established policies that brought us to this current state.
