If the US weren’t helping Russia by giving them a lifeline, this war would probably be over this year.
Russia has been increasing trade with China in the past few years. I’m afraid that, even without US support now, Russia would still be able to carry on for a while longer :(
China really doesnt like sanctions either
That’s a green light for them to invade Taiwan then.
Sanctions are not binary and when used smartly can target Russia without directly hurting China. That’s what we did already and the last sanctions by Biden targeting banking were very effective afaik.
So effective that Russia is winning the war three years later.
Yes, but we applied them because Russia attacked. Once we apply them we can no longer use them as leverage. If you tell China you’re going to do it even if they don’t invade Taiwan then that gets erased from the “Cons” side of the board.
There are many sanctions to utilize tho.
I’m not even going to dignify you with a response anymore. Go take a few civic classes and shut the fuck up.
