OK, let's talk about this one. This starts pedantic but stick with me. The point is larger. Trump says any country that buys oil from Iran will not be allowed to do any business with U.S. cnb.cx/3RJXmig

Per Reuters, Trump is considering new sanctions on Russia, including on Gazprom. If true—good. Also a reminder: Russia is NOT the most sanctioned country on earth. Energy giants Gazprom & Rosneft aren’t even under primary sanctions, much less secondary. reuters.com/world/us-readi…

Great piece

My notes and discussion of Eddie Fishman’s Chokepoints, on the past two decades of American economic warfare against Iran, Russia, and China. Very interesting insider’s look at the formulation of recent policy, with interesting implications for future patterns of conflict.🧵

“Chokepoints” is a truly excellent economic history read. It starts by outlining the concept of economic warfare in examples spanning the Megarian Decree of Ancient Greece to the failed League of Nations to the creation of the petrodollar. Eddie Fishman then dives into

The most important article I’ve read in a long time. In Foreign Affairs, Rush Doshi and Kurt Campbell warn of growing complacency about China—and lay out a vision for U.S. grand strategy that strikes me as exactly right: foreignaffairs.com/china/underest…

One of the main reasons tech export controls have proven far weaker than financial sanctions is that U.S. chip firms aren’t incentivized to comply Banks have been fined billions for sanctions violations. Chip firms have experienced no such consequences

A hard reality that Trump didn't grasp during his first term but now seems to admit: If he wants to close trade deficit quickly, the only viable path is a draconian cutoff of imports—not by selling more soybeans to China. Let's see whether Americans accept the tradeoff

There won't be a timelier or more insightful geopolitical / geoeconomic book this year than "Chokepoints" by Eddie Fishman: penguinrandomhouse.com/books/726149/c… It's a page-turner par excellence, and closes with deep wisdom about the nature of international politics.

Next major risk to the world economy: Scarred by the failure to extract any concessions from China—and assuming that Brussels will lack Beijing’s mettle—Trump will turn his economic bazooka at Europe next Yet a US-EU economic war would be even more damaging than a US-China one

CGEP scholar Eddie Fishman tells Reuters that the unwinding of Syria sanctions could take months to ease. He notes, however, that the Treasury Department has practice from sanctions relief provided to Iran as part of the nuclear deal in 2015. reuters.com/world/trumps-b…

The US now needs to avoid Kremlin distractions and focus on its original near-term objective: a 30-day unconditional ceasefire, backed up by the threat of US/European sanctions. That should be the Ukrainian push at any talks with the Russians. And ours.

Another great ep this week, featuring the brilliant minds of Eddie Fishman and Dan Wang
