1. With oil trading at $100 almost per barrel, with these sanctions, now the only major buyer of Russian oil is China. They now can't take advantage of high prices that the US would be paying them.

2. The Russian stock market dropped 33% so far pre-invasion. At one point it was down half.

Whether those pains are enough to get them to stop or not we will see.
 
When they run short of Gas and Oil they will be begging Russia to deliver . Germany takes 50% of its gas from Moscow .

Meanwhile Russian Oil and Gas reserve prices rise astronomically and also precious metals which they have been buying for years .

They just have reported gigantic last quarter results .
They need something like $40 an oil barrel to balance their budget . They are getting $100 and this will increase further

The computers have spilt out all this info and much more .

You're a propaganda machine.

Slow down a bit. Your servers need a rest.
 
When Pres. Biden shut down US domestic oil production on day one in office with his executive orders he allowed the Russians to sell all the oil they could produce at inflated prices. Now we're seeing what Putin with his treasury full of petro dollars is capable of. Putin fears no sanctions when it come to protecting Mother Russia.
