Sanctions just created and Alliance of Dictators.....
Russia is doing ok with out Mickey Ds , you wont see the west go after their oil.....North Korea has been sanctioned over and over, they have more nukes than ever and grow closer to Russia....toss in Iran, china and other country's that will go against the west for the sake of opportunity and money...
Call it unintended consequences...... Sanctions don't work on dictatorships, they just make a nice safe talking point of action.........And dictators have a funny way of keeping uprisings out of the equation
To add
Seems war wasn't enough either,,,500 more sanctions coming, guess they were holding back...
