      Interesting exchange and I'll be interested in what Drezner says after seeing the documents Legum is sending him. But right now, based on earlier exchanges on this topic, I'm leaning towards Drezner.https://twitter.com/dandrezner/status/1511710048673751041 …

      Hi, I can claim expertise on sanctions, and would quibble a bit with what Caldwell says in the quotes you ascribe to him. But reading through your entire story my conclusion is you’re trying to whip up outrage about pretty anodyne statements regarding the situation in Ukraine. https://twitter.com/JuddLegum/status/1511683805207318529 …

      Saying that sanctions should be targeted & not broad is a legitimate policy position (in fact, usually the right one). Shouldn't be tarnished as pro-Putin. The goal should be policies that can effect change.

          As a rule of thumb I trust Drezner, but there's a context here. Koch Industries has refused to divest from Russia even in part, and a Koch-funded think tank is saying there should be no sanctions that might affect Koch Industries's activities in Russia.

          the point of the sanctions is to strangle the war machine

          Gotta say I have more respect for this position when the country in question hasn't just committed infinity warcrimes as part of a failing war of aggression. =/ This is not a 'normal' situation where the usually right thing is appropriate.

          if they can pay for and supply their invasion the sanctions aren't broad enough

          any hope that less deranged factions in Russian power circles could reign things in have been dashed and ukraine's civilians cannot wait to see if that changes

          the change is not being able to pay for armaments.
