Maybe he’s telling the truth or maybe he isn’t. It doesn’t matter. Either way he actively participated at a very high level in the destruction of socialism. I don’t think that what he is doing now is in any way trying to atone for that crime because he doesn’t see the destruction of the socialist economies of Eastern Europe as a bad thing. He still holds Poland up as a success while only criticizing the fact that the US was unwilling to treat Russia the same way and instead pushed much harsher shock therapy measures aimed at destroying Russia entirely rather than turning it into a stable vassal state like they did Poland. That being said he is a somewhat prominent anti-imperialist voice now which puts him in the same kind of category as pro-Russia reactionaries - yes they are enemies of socialism, but they are useful to us at the moment insofar as they help weaken US imperialist hegemony.
He’s not in the same camp as pro-Russia reactionaries if we’re talking about the US. Those reactionaries are complete culture war chuds and still bloodthirsty for war with China.
Sachs preaches economic cooperation and no military confrontation with China, does not believe they are seeking to be an expanding military empire, and has been vocal about the economic progress made whilst appreciating their relatively nonviolent foreign policy history as well.

Yeah, he’s a incorrigibly a liberal. Some people can be turned, but he’s not one of them. He’s never going to be a comrade.
