Nah, the sanctions are weak. We still allow American companies to export goods into the country and they're forkig over billions into the Kremlin's pockets. There's been almost no attempt to stop their laundering of money through commercial real estate or fine the banks allowing it. And our "allies" in the Middle East are working with Russia to cut oil production to juice the price per barrel. Heck, our NATO partners are still buying billions in gas from them.
The sanctions were weak because they would slightly hurt some businesses. That's more important to politicians than this war you think is vital to our security.
