The Russian achilles heel is all the toys and property in the US and Europe bought with money stolen from Russia. Just expropriate the oligarchs businesses and property in the west. Tell the Russians to behave or they are forfeited.

Start with Chelsea soccer team. That’s worth about a billion right there. Many billions in hard assets should be frozen pending the outcome of Putin’s latest adventure. So far it seems Germany is too chicken to do it.

Yep....that’s Russia’s other Achilles heel. If the Western governments froze those assets, that sound you’d be hearing is the sound of Russian oligarchs, Putin included, suddenly and simultaneously soiling their $100 underwear.
