The United States and Europe need a new approach to dealing with Russia. Any new strategy has to accept that the West will be facing an aggressive Russia for decades rather than years.

Russia’s war against Ukraine marks less a rupture in globalization than Russia’s self-imposed removal from the global economy. One consequence may be a more balanced relationship between China and the West.

The only way to regain security in Europe is for Vladimir Putin’s rule over Russia to end. The prosecution of Slobodan Milošević as a war criminal may point to a possible solution.

There are serious doubts about not only the effectiveness, but also the rationality for imposing sanctions on the Russian oligarchs.
