I think it might be something to do with maintaining access to Kaliningrad, but I'm not sure what else they would be playing at.

Would be fascinating to see them try to instigate shit in the Baltics, given that it's basically NATO-land now.

Sounds like they're taking cues from China's playbook of "everything in the South China Sea up to your coastline belongs to us"
That's a bit easier to enforce when your surface fleet isn't an absolute joke like Russia's though.

Zelensky has already stipulated his terms and I hope he doesn't relent. The world already let Putin keep Crimea in 2014 in hopes it would appease Putin and prevent him from wanting more and yet here we are.

He would only use the time to rebuild his forces for another invasion 6-8 years later.

The only thing that will stop Putin is death.

U.S. officials tell the NewsHour that the administration is debating whether to lift a restriction on the use of American weapons to target Russian weapons in Russia.

It still blows my mind that we put restrictions on weapons we give Ukraine to fight off an invasion by our adversary while allowing Israel carte blanche to bomb hospitals, universities, refugee camps, etc.

It is infuriating. First the extremely slow rollout of new tech. Now extreme restrictions on how it can be used. And then people are surprised that Ukraine can't take its territory back. Russia was allowed far too much time to dig in. And many countries have hampered their ability to fight back.

Occupied territory is full of trenches and mines and all sorts of shit. They can't push back without air and long-range power. Ukrainian troops are skilled and determined but limited in number (though even if they weren't, throwing bodies at things, as Russia can/does is horrific).

Sweden is told by the other NATO countries to not send Jas Gripen planes.
They want to concentrate on the F16 planes first before adding more plane types.

Understandable because there's a LOT of F-16s being phased out in the last few years and this would simplify parts supply and maintenance, the mix of tanks they've been receiving can be troublesome when you've got things like the Challenger 2 that uses a completely different ammo system compared to the other tanks used by NATO members.
On the other hand SAAB's been struggling to push for Gripen E sales in the face of widespread F-35 adoption so their jets finding usage in Ukraine would have been the best thing that happened to them in years.

She noted that Canada has never set any restrictions on the territory where the transferred weapons can be used.
Ok, glad it's just stating it explicitly and there were never any restrictions in place.
