These sanctions are going to last long after they are lifted. Russia will never be the same. Most who will suffer have nothing to do with Putins' decisions yet without sanctions of this magnitude war is the only option left. It may come to that yet. Putin cannot be allowed to march through Europe. There are no winners here. Only those who will suffer because a mad man is running Russia.

Germany OWES Ukraine big time! Germans killed millions of Ukrainians and Belarusians in 1941-1943. Germany has a lot to answer for even after 80 years. Helping Ukraine now is a good start.

They've been pumping German men full of soy and self loathing for 75 years now.
I hope the poor dears don't break their effeminate wrists.

Putin can no longer compete with China on any level so he will be treated by China like he treats other lesser countries. Man has Russia fallen into despair and dysfunction. And man is it going to suck for Putin being told instead of doing the telling. China is telling Putin to come to us my pretty and he is, he is crawling to them.
Too funny…

I see you going back and forth with Jack throughout these threads. The ignorant fool doesn’t realize he is an anarchist. He doesn’t believe in anything that would help a society to develop and thrive. It is left to others to do so despite him.
He believes, or thinks he believes in the organization of society on the basis of voluntary cooperation. A society without political institutions or hierarchical government. He is clueless to what keeps our society running to the extent it does. It is the institutions he criticizes that allow for his very existence.
There are many places on the planet where he could live out his beliefs. Places where governments cannot easily reach him but he is a coward so he’d never go. What that means is he will never live according to his delusional anti-social convictions. He will continue living in a box void of the skills needed to thrive himself in a society that works for a better good.

Key U.S. provider of Internet to Russia is cutting service there, citing ‘unprovoked invasion of Ukraine,’ sources say
A leading American Internet service provider, Cogent Communications, is preparing to sever relations with Russian customers on Friday, according to people familiar with the company’s decision, a move that would give Ukrainian officials another victory in their campaign to isolate Russia online.

I'm going to say it again. China is watching what happens when the world comes after you. I'm betting they want no part of it. This may be what saves Taiwan and prevents them from helping Russia.
