I had the opportunity to sit down yesterday with my colleagues Geoff Williams and Charles Dainoff to talk about the financial aspects of the Russia-Ukraine War. As some may recall we were writing a book on financial conflict when the war started, a book that now happens to be available in paperback. Here’s what we talked about:
* What did we expect from the war and what didn’t we expect?
* How have sanctions hurt russia?
* The Russian mafia state and its implications for financial shenanigans
* How have sanctions helped Ukraine?
* The Weaponized InterdepenDANCE
* Sanctions, coercion, and negotiation
* The bureaucracy of sanctions and Elon’s purge
* What to do with Russian assets abroad
There’s a lot here and I’m proud of how it turned out, so give a listen. Transcript is here.
