Otherwise, as Daniel Fried, a top former State Department official in both Republican and Democratic Party administrations, told Bloomberg News, lifting sanctions would be better held back as an incentive for Russia to keep to an eventual ceasefire.

Overall Bloomberg’s version of sober just seems to be drinking every other day instead of being on an indefinite bender. Libs have their limits…
