1. Adam Mount:

   Though the President Obama administration sporadically tried to restart negotiations, there was never discussion of a presidential summit. The Obama administration would have been very much out of keeping with policy. Past administrations would not have considered a presidential summit before a major accomplishment had been made, and more likely at the end of a disarmament process, the president( Donald Trump) has invented this idea out of thin air for reasons passing understanding. If he's trying to argue that Kim Jong Un likes Kim Jong more, I for one can't understand why he would take pride in that.

   It would be very difficult for us to accept any discrimination, unless Britain helped us really effectively with regard to the Polish defense ambitions at the summit in Warsaw.

   The NATO summit was not supposed to be about Britain, but NATO leaders will not be able to ignore the security implications of Britain's vote to leave the EU.

5. Ron Johnson:

   Together with deciding not to impose sanctions to halt the completion of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, his limited demand on cyberattacks signals weakness that our adversaries will notice and take advantage of, president Biden's summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed our worst fear: he is too weak to stand up to adversaries.
