Time To Life Sanctions -- September 11, 2022

Link here.

Okay, that was yesterday.

Now this:

What catches your eye?

Yeah, that was written in March, about one month into the invasion and already things were not going well.

If that was a serious question then, with all the supporting arguments, imagine how much more things have changed for the worse for Putin.

I think it's time for the EU (and the US) to lift all sanctions on Russia's selling and moving oil and natural gas but lift none of the other sanctions. Doing so would do two things:

• "save" Europe with regard to energy, inflation;
• exhaust Russia's SPR.

It would have no effect on the outcome of the war. Analogy: Reagan's Star Wars. As far as I remember, Reagan put in place no sanctions on Russia. He simply went head-to-head with Russia, and won.
