International order for 4 centuries has been based on non-interference in the internal affairs of others and respect for sovereignty. Russia has violated this norm by seizing Crimea and by interfering in the 2016 US election. We must deal w Putin’s Russia as the rogue state it is.[1]~ Richard N. Haass, President, Council of Foreign Relations.
B’s comment (at Moon of Alabama): “Shorter: ‘Westphalianism for us, intervention for everyone else.”
