The western world miscalculated the obvious. The idea of functioning sanctions never worked - neither south africa stopped the apartheid, nor did Iran or north korea changed their regime. And in case of russia it was obvious that our dependancy from fuel and gas would surpass the damage we do by not delivering any goods produced from russian ressources. Actually and as a matter of fact russian economy profits from the sanctions while we suffer inflation and economic downgrowth stupid politicians! Biden insisted not to defend the ukraine in case it would be attacked just to get bad conscience after russia really did attack and now ruins the western world in a pointless attempt to make it forget this failure
