US targets Russia with more than 500 new sanctions

The United States has announced more than 500 new sanctions against Russia over its invasion of Ukraine and the death in custody of the opposition figure Alexei Navalny.
The sanctions target people connected to Navalny's imprisonment and Russia's war machine, President Joe Biden said.
Export restrictions will be imposed on nearly 100 firms or individuals.
The EU also announced sanctions, which Moscow responded to by banning EU officials from entering Russia.
It is unclear what impact the sanctions will have on Russia's economy.
In a statement, President Biden said the sanctions "will ensure" Russian President Vladimir Putin "pays an even steeper price for his aggression abroad and repression at home".

"Two years ago, he tried to wipe Ukraine off the map. If Putin does not pay the price for his death and destruction, he will keep going," Mr Biden said in the statement.
On Friday, the EU also announced its own raft of sanctions on nearly 200 companies and people accused of helping Russia procure weapons, or of involvement in kidnapping Ukrainian children, something Moscow denies.
They included 10 Russian companies and individuals involved in the shipping of North Korean armaments to Russia, including North Korea's defence minister.
The EU has now listed more than 2,000 individuals since the war started.

In response, Russia's foreign ministry said it had significantly expanded a list of EU officials and politicians banned from entering Russia.
"The European Union is continuing its fruitless attempts to put pressure on Russia through unilateral restrictive measures," it said in a statement.

500 sanctions on Russia and zero sanctions on illegals.

This means the U.S. government knows exactly why the Russian economy is thriving, the Ruble is stronger against the dollar, and there is nothing -not one thing- visible or different on the ground in Russia that an ordinary Russian citizen would notice. In fact, the Russian economy is doing fine, better than before the Ukraine conflict initiated, albeit with new financial industries created by the sanctions.
If the US government knows this, then why the sanctions?
Asked and answered. The Western sanctions created a financial wall around the USA, not to keep Russia out, but to keep us in. The Western sanction regime, the financial mechanisms they created and authorized, creates the control gate that leads to a U.S. digital currency.

The specter of Russia/Putin is literally all this admin has.

Watching Bloomberg right now to get some of my morning financial fix and even they are saying this is just symbolic.
This chick just said "Biden promised to turn the Ruble into rubble, has it worked though? Not exactly."

Bono is a fricking washed up clown. What a dip shite. U2 music sucks and The Edge is average guitar player.

Why not? It worked back when the globalists started WW1 (Archduke Franz Ferdinand assassination).
