Like the West (US and Britain) have over recent years? Iraq, Afganistan, Libya...
Difference being Ukraine is on Russia's doorstep, Putin has a right to have concerns of what is happening in Russia's neighbouring countries IMO. Sanctions won't work as the west want them to, they will affect the EU countries just as much if not more.
I'm happy to see Putin doing deals with China. Wouldn't be surprised to see deals with India in the coming months.
My only worry is how far Cameron will go, the good news for RPO holders is, BP is heavily invested in Rosneft, so I'm sure advisors will be warning Cameron of any decisions that could affect BP's share price.
