The bad thing is that it is all bluster and I don’t see even a mild retaliation on Russian part economically. The EU deserves severe punishment for its arrogance, but Putin is probably stupidly hoping that the business as usual is still possible.

Regardless, Russia now turns East and South when this war is over. The One World Government dreams of the Europeans and Americans are over. They will have to take their grandiose planss to ‘save the planet’ back to university and likely park them there.
