Here's the problem:
If NATO nations and other free nations don't stop Putin from Taking Ukraine (and all the other former eastern block nations like Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Poland, Eastern Germany, Berlin Hungary etc. then the free democracies have lost the free world in increments.
So, if we are going to Actually Sanction Russia to the point where it really hurts, all Western Democracies will have to band together to boycott all Russian Oil so Putin has no money from any western nations to function. Western nations will also shut off Dollars and all western Currencies to Moscow too So their banks will ONLY function in Rubles and maybe Chinese Yen and that's all.
But, in order to do this Russia supplies about 40% of all oil on earth so theoretically Oil per barrel could go up 40% because of this sooner or later and this will also transfer to everything driven costing more including on trains, planes, cars and trucks worldwide. This is going to cause maybe twice as many people worldwide to starve to death as normal too and cause incredible suffering worldwide.
However, if we don't stop Putin we won't have any freedoms or democracy or western capitalism at all.
So, during a war there are many sacrifices and Putin just started either a war or a new Cold War. We aren't entirely sure what he has done yet.
But, either way he is now a worldwide pariah likely to most nations. We aren't sure yet how China is going to react to what Putin is doing so we have to wait and see.
This is what is really going on here now worldwide. We have entered a wartime atmosphere we haven't seen maybe since "The Cuban Missile Crisis like this".
If you haven't studied the Cuban missile crisis it is when the Soviet Union almost created a nuclear war by putting nuclear missiles in Cuba right off of Florida. My cousin was a U.S. Navy Sailor on a ship off of Cuba then on a U.S. naval destroyer by the way then too.
It was likely nuclear wise the scariest time in my life. We might be at another place like this too now.
The Cuban Missile Crisis was one of the things that caused President Kennedy to be assassinated a year later too.
