“New arms deals, exports of energy and oil-drilling technologies, and sales of items with both civilian and military applications will be forbidden.”

Ah, now that France has already made its big arms deal with Putin, sanctions on “new deals” are to banned. Spineless hypocrites.

Obama should be telling U.S. energy importers that no Russian energy supplies (largest non-Opec crude oil supplier to the U.S. after Mexico) can come here. That will (1) make them cheaper elsewhere, which (2) will lower Putin’s revenue from them.

France wouldn’t sign up with EU’S on Obama’s new sanctions against Russia unless their deal with Russia was spared.
