Economic warfare against Putin? Great idea!!!
But ... what if he fights back? That would be unexpected!
Now things are getting real. Who will blink?
The market will shift. It will be short term pain. But long term, Russia is going to lose the foreign investment money that funds to exploration and development of new wells. In addition, it’s going to be a bitch getting spare parts (although much of that’s from China these days.)
Putin is a mouse economically. He is trying to roar at the world. He will end up ruining his country.
He is an arrogant fool.
