That is what happens when you put sanctions on a country. A large country like Russia will simply trade with someone else.

It is what it is.

I'd like a discounted price on them, and I'll fill the freezers with that thar chicken.........

 

[Mr. H.]

We'll have those Rooskies eating dogs and swilling bathtub vodka in no time.

 

[Mr. H.]

In an opinion poll conducted Aug. 1 to 4 by the Levada Center, Mr. Putin’s approval rating hit 87 percent, having risen steadily since the annexation of Crimea last March.

Why don't we adore OUR dear leader so?

Sanctions often lead to war. So, why do the elites use sanctions? Because they want war.

History clearly tells us sanctions are dangerous and in most cases, counterproductive. This is certainly true with this current situation.
