Bloomberg: Trump Team Working on Russian Sanctions Plan
Newsmax ^ | 1/16/2025 | Charlie McCarthy

Incoming Trump administration officials reportedly are developing a sanctions strategy that they hope will expedite a peace deal in the Russia-Ukraine war.

-snip-

Bloomberg reported that incoming Trump administration officials are considering two main options in regard to sanctions.

If they believe a resolution to the Ukraine war is relatively close, good-faith measures to benefit sanctioned Russian oil producers could help bring about a peace deal, sources told the outlet.

Another option would build on the current sanctions in an attempt to pressure Russian President Vladimir Putin to agree to end the conflict.

But we know you love him, since Putin pays you

There’s going to have be some pressure on Russia to get them to the bargaining people.

People need to chill and just wait and see what happens.

Too many media folks jumped on this scenario too quickly.

What is the source? None? That would explain the consensus.

This will all depend on Tulsi. When she sterilizes intelligence, actual facts will enter the briefings. Then people will make decisions based on them.

Ruzzia is already heavily sanctioned.
And Ruzzians are used to living with very little of everything.
The Good News is Trump does not mention deploying American
Troops Directly or thru NATO to YouCrayne.

Just a few more weeks and most rabid Zeepers will be gone. The MIC checks will stop coming and you’ll all be quiet.

Certainly sounds like a typical ‘placed’ article by the Neocons to try to push Trump into their “Russia must die” direction. Means NOTHING until we see it in action. My thinking, based on history, is that Trump has FAR MORE PROBLEMS with the Neocons than he has with Putin/Russia.

Can anyone tell me what possibly remains to sanction?

Biden, Blinken and Sullivan have shot their wad, and nothing has changed.

“Can anyone tell me what possibly remains to sanction?”

I guess we can start lobbing torpedoes at tankers that dock in Russia, but sadly for the Zeepers, I kind of doubt that will happen, and the Chiwawas running Europe will not do that either, without US permission.

We’re spent regarding sanctions...nothing more is coming. If anyone gets sanctioned, it will be Europe, at least after Trump takes office.

Sanctions do not work and the Russians don’t care they have dealt with sanctions of all kinds for the last 80 years.
