40. Oil/gas sanctions against Russia are what would

be most effective at forcing Russia to back down. It would be difficult for the world economy as well, as gas/oil prices would surge, but it is a small price to pay to bring down a mad man who invades sovereign countries and threatens nuclear warfare. As long as the world buys his oil he will remain in power.
