My Take
I read Kurt Volker as a craftsman of diplomacy's hardest rooms. Born in Hatboro, Pennsylvania in 1964 and educated at George Washington University, he served as George W. Bush's final Ambassador to NATO, later led the McCain Institute, and took on the Ukraine special representative role as a volunteer. The Order of Prince Yaroslav the Wise he received suggests he was trusted on the ground there. He resigned in 2019, but the nerve required to operate inside Eastern European diplomacy is real. I have respect for those who do the unglamorous work of holding nations together behind the scenes.
