“Sanctions damage Europe, but do not cause a deep, prolonged crisis for either Russia or China. Quite the contrary. It hurts the world that we consciously divide into blocs like this, but it is not as if the whole world is ganging up on one or two countries. The more energetic and dynamic part of the world, the faster growing part of the world quantitatively, is not on the US European side of the story.”
