Kinda makes you wonder why they didn't do all this stuff on day 1.

I'm perplex about the sanctions applied to Russia, surely the maximum sanctions should have been set against Russia when they invaded Ukraine in the first place, it makes me think they are playing some sort of game and not really serious.

No McDonalds??!!! Omg.. what are they going to do!! No happy meals!!

Them implementing additional sanctions just goes to show that they held back on the first round of sanctions. If Russia invaded Ukraine unprovoked, then why not implement every sanction possible from the get go? It makes no sense.

1) Sanctions only work when there is no workaround.
2) There is always a workaround.

Biden keeps talking sanctions.
How about doing a once for all 100% sanctions from here on out!

I wonder if Jordan or Comer gave Putin a phone call to offer their sympathies yet.

As long as russia has Iran, china, India, African countries and others the eu sanctions are a second thought to Russia

We still buy Russia oil. Russia sells its crude oil to India which refines it and sells it back to us as non-Russian oil. Even we find ways of avoiding our own sanctions when it’s so ridicules…

Why not just sanction everything and call it a day? I’m sure Putin won’t mind.

Also why is it starting to feel like Navalny was some kind of CIA op? I have no evidence for this but the fact that it’s got such a reaction out of Washington makes me wonder.

Great reporting.. on how they don't give details about the sanctions

[sergueivergounov]

What happened to sanctions already applied?

[Rick-qfde]

Well I guess we're down to about water and air is the only thing left.... ??? 😮

Why the hell I'm hearing wales in the background ?

[givemeabreak]

They get the stuff from: Kazakhstan, Armenia, Georgia, Turkey, China and other places relatively Easy.

[borali]

So many russian bots here. its astonishing.

[foxmccloud]

I wonder if Tucker Carlson is among those who were sanctioned?

[Rickets]

Which one of the sanctions eliminates Russia all together?

[edwarddelgado]

Putin: sanctions, smanctions. Don't bother me

You really gotta ask yourself, why doesn’t the US and NATO give Ukraine some of their best weapons off the bat? That would drastically change the tide of the war, yet they’re not. They see Ukraine losing and they’ll give them a new weapon here and there but still not enough to change the tide so what’s going on? Now you’re saying that they could’ve applied these sanctions since the beginning of the war but they’re just doing it? This is a war game, or a money laundering operation. The only other reason I can think of is they want Russia to lose as many soldiers and equipment as possible, and let them take half of Ukraine and then they’ll start sending their best weapons because at that point Russia would’ve lost so many people and equipment that the offensive would be a lot easier for the Ukrainians. Although they’re already running short on men as we speak.
