Russia will be heavily sanctioned for years to come and will never be fully free of them. Even when putin is gone there will still be partial sanctions.
We European imperialist savages have always been at war with each other and at times spread our conflicts to the rest of the world (ww1 & ww2 most recent). Do you folks realise we've had 70 plus years of relative peace and free trade. The last major conflict was ww2 and Europe got flattened.
The only thing more important than economy, jobs, avoiding recessions, cost of living etc is peace and security in all of Europe if we don't have that we can't have anything else. There was no other option but to hit Russia with sledgehammer of economic sanctions and hit it again and it again. Its having a strong affect and sanctions take time to work there way through the economy. Russia needs to be taught a lesson to any future aggressors of Europe.
Before anyone mentions Serbia, Kosovan- that's didn't involve the world's largest nuclear armed state, commodity superpower and was very much localised.
In the words of my 4th wife- who needs love when you have money. Thankfully my 6th wife is more grounded.....for now.
