Opinion by David Ignatius: Russia’s travel ban list saddened me — and not just because I’m on it
National security advisers, who form a chain of foreign policy expertise from administration to administration, are mostly untouchables, too. Jake Sullivan, the current adviser, is banned . But so are John Bolton and H.R. McMaster from the Trump administration, along with Stephen Hadley from the George W. Bush years. Henry Kissinger can still travel to Moscow, and maybe he should. The Kremlin needs to talk to someone.
My own crime, in addition to being a “journalist,” is that I am supposedly an “expert at the [Woodrow] Wilson Center.” Sorry, comrades, but you have that last part wrong. I am, however, a trustee of the German Marshall Fund . I guess even sanctions compilers need editors and fact-checkers. So it’s a genuine personal regret for me that I apparently won’t be visiting Russia again anytime soon. But beyond that, I worry about how, if Russia won’t talk to anyone, the country will find its way back to normal life after its tragic assault on Ukraine is halted.
