Not to mention the elephant in the room, but every hour these sanctions continue turns China into a larger unstoppable monster.
How is that working so far? ;-) Bet you are a millennial. What I found is that you guys have some idealized wants that you get fanatic about and then force everyone else to adopt. If someone steps out of line then you hammer that sticking out nail right back in. Can't have anyone who disagrees. Well, reality and the facts don't care for your fragile emotions.
Actually, you make an interesting point. And every hour the the West (the US actually) refuses to even consider Russia's unchanged and fair demands it strengthens the relationship between Russia and China. You can't beat Russia this way, it's impossible. They can easily survive and operate at 90-95% less than their usual economic activity. Shrink any western economy by 5% output and you wreck havoc.
Find that hard to believe. But if you say so...surprised then that you underestimate Russia's resolve and ability to survive so badly. Russia will not fall while in cahoots with China.
Of course that must make you the expert. Then how about we let the Russians in Russia and Ukrainians in Ukraine resolve this issue on their own. After all they are the expert because they are not just born and have grown up there but they even live there. Your logic makes zero sense.
