sanctioning Russia is a very good idea if you want to destroy the economy of a dictatorship', Russia, that wants to destroy Ukraine and Ukrainians democracy.
Lol - Russia is not 1/3 of the world economy, in fact, the potential value for entering the russian economy is not worth the trouble. I bet every company doing business there is breaking laws just to do so, all those oligarchs’ $500M yachts aren’t being paid for with wages earned legitimately.
Sanctioning Russia is not good. If you want to build future you trade. If you want enemy you sanction, and there’s 3rd player China. You can’t sanction 2/3 of World - who will do this sanctions with you?
you don't start wars with neighboring countries because thay have democratic governments if you want to promote trade.
Ole jacobsen sounds danish what an embarrasment you are Danes support ukraine in this conflict
Boykot Microsoft, SAP and Oracle.

"not allowed for Russians" sounds exactly as "not allowed for Jews"... are you realizing at this point that Europe should be happy to be able to buy Russian energy for the next winter? otherwise, cutting its trees for heating would be a reliable source of energy
oh don't get me wrong.. Russia is fantastic and russians are even more. America is great and so are americans.. it goes the same way for Venezuela and so on and so forth. The problem is those crazy old guys sitting on the chair defending their own purpose and saying it as if it was in the name of the whole nation...
