Crisis management 101 teaches us that the only way to encourage a country like Russia back from the brink is to provide it with the opportunity to save face, to avoid the humiliation of being seen to succumb to international pressure. Australia, by dialling up the rhetoric, has played an active role in making that impossible.

Management 101 teaches us that a bad actor is a bad actor, and needs to be fired not coddled.

Management 101 also teaches to promise only what you can realistically deliver.
