I don't think the sanctions should be lifted as long as Putin is in power.  ( n/t ) Make7 Apr 2022 #3

without a regime change we really shouldn't be doing any business with them at all. In fact I would go as far as declaring open season on their flagged vessels carrying their oil. We in the west will not do anything to intervene in piracy.

I am willing to pay $4 to $5/gallon for the foreseable future if that is what it takes to punch Putin's ticket.

It's laughable to be honest.

They'll be a global pariah, with their friends China, India, Iran and Saudi Arabia. But thinking there'll be some reckoning is just silly.
