Who can answer one question that why, why there was no single county in the west to stand out to against the U.S. and or sanctioned the U.S. when it invaded so many countries, such as Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Kosovo

Thank you France, bit late but let’s crack on from here. Bring it on. 👍🏼

[ameliebellefille]

They talk about sanctions but how about ACTIONS!

[tjp]

EU must agree to stop Russian access to Swift.

[regamez]

Well done France, you have my respect 😇

[eddieogbeide]

As a Nigerian who is not directly affected by this conflict, my prayer is for this conflict not to turn to what both western allies and Russia will regret in future.All i see is too much egos on all sides of this conflict.

As an American I love it when France stands up in the firm way you can achieve! Thank you to our brothers and sisters in France, now lets get Italy and Germany on board today!

Russia do not import food and fuel, it exports grain ( the largest ) and gas, how would the sanctions work in our favorite? By cutting ourself off from gas? Even without SWIFT other countries will still buy grain from Russia to feed their population, or we go after those countries with sanctions aswell ?

"crushing" sanctions is like telling murderer - bad boy, see what you've done? No cookies for you tonight.

As an Afghan, my heart is broken for the people of Ukraine. This is exactly what's been happening to our country for the past 30-40 years. May God protect the innocent ones.

People of Ukraine, remember no one is your friend nor West, nor Russia...
