‘Hard to see’ sanctions on Russia being ‘effective’

Former chairman of Parliament’s Foreign Affairs Defence Committee Michael Danby says it is “hard to see” international sanctions on Russia being “as effective as we thought”.

“The Russian ruble is up in value … with all the sanctions that have been put on them,” Mr Danby told Sky News Australia. “However I think it’s preventing them from getting components for many of the Russian military equipment”.

Like president Putin said , the west just shot themselves in the foot

I hope with don’t have a food shortage. The biggest plan they have this year, is NFL football. Think of all the people in the audience actually growing something in a greenhouse as big as the football field. That’s what Russia is doing on a grand scale. We may be our own enemy

Well Duh! Who are the imbeciles who ever thought restricting a large the world's gas, oil and wheat, potash supply was going to do anything other than hurt it's own people? They are doing great at hurting poor people here. Mentally deficient.

Typical Murdoch press, advocating for Vladimir Putin's best interests as usual.

They aren't effective because Russians are not like Europeans. Russians are Russians.

There is no quick fix for a problem of this scale. Demons, delusions and greed...

So what else genius just lie down and surrender.
