uld We Isolate Russia?
At the time Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine, Russia
supplied the European Union with some 40% of its natural gas, 25% of its
oil, and nearly half of its coal. But as punishment for the war, most
of Russia’s energy imports to Europe will be banned by the end of the
year, along with sweeping sanctions that target banks, businesses, and
oligarchs. Is that smart policy? Those who argue “yes” say Russia must
be punished for its actions, democratic governments should be protected,
and that accommodations only embolden Moscow. Those who argue “no” say
isolating the Kremlin to this extent is a dangerous gamble, which could
undermine Europe’s economies, push Russia further toward China, and lay
the groundwork for an escalation. In this context, and in partnership
with the German Marshall Fund, we debate this question, "Should we
isolate Russia?"
