The EU is preparing to carve out exceptions in its tough sanctions against Moscow that would unblock assets at Russian banks linked to trade in food and fertiliser, a document showed on Tuesday.

Phew!!! PR disaster avoided. Imagine wealthy white Europeans starving Africans to death in the name of freedom and democracy where none exists and propping up a kleptocrat with a knack for harvesting the West’s money.
Try putting a good spin on that.
If the Russians are smart, they’ll just take their assets to places where they won’t be stolen by woke green mobsters and thugs, and then sell their energy and fertilizer to countries that are not trying to destroy them, like India, all of Africa, most of the Middle and Far east, maybe help bail out Sri Lanka by trading for their genetic engineering tech…
The woke west delenda est.
“We’ve always been at war with ourselves.”
Possibly the fruits of the new woke school of civil engineering?
Oops, wrong thread.
Putin to the Russian people ‘so much winning, you’ll get tired of winning’.
This makes Zelensky cry. I wonder which WEF member get to be his soother?
The West.
Fighting for “freedom.”
Down to the very last Ukrainian peasant’s life.
The bravery of being out of range.
Feckless Western leaders will always bail out at the first moment of political discomfort.
John Manley, Liberal mucky muck , actually spoke the truth once.
He accurately pointed out that when the International bill came due, Canada always seemed to be in the little boy’s room.
And that’s only money. Could you imagine actually spilling the blood of today’s canadian youth?
I suspect a nosebleed would send them screaming for their two moms.
It’s probably a good thing the Liberals have sold us to China, as canadian backbone has disappeared like truth at the CBC.
Virtually none of the Western “Elite” leaders ever thought this thing through. I’m not sure they ever will. I just pray that in their eagerness to punish Russia for Putin’s misdeeds, we are not being herded into WW-III.
Sanctions are important until they aren’t.
This is all a stupid game the EU is playing.
If you want to sanction Putin, fine. Rely on your own energy and have the wontons to stick to it.
Otherwise, it is nothing but window-dressing.
The out right incompetence of EU leadership on public display.
Elect clowns expect a circus.
But then again a lot of those members are appointed as part of the club.
They are so out of touch with what the average person is dealing with.
