Key Notes
From a game-theory perspective, Jiang says the base case is limited escalation rather than world war: minor U.S. strikes followed by negotiations and a peace settlement that leaves Venezuela effectively subordinate to Washington.
Jiang says he would prefer to be wrong and would happily return in a year to admit error if Trump and Putin signed a peace treaty and the world became peaceful again.
