you can't write that with a straight face. Putin doesn't need the west!!!! WTF are you thinking?Depends on what the sanctions are. This tranche of it is painful but not crippling. Although Nordstream 2 will really hurt.
There are however much worse. Everything from a full international trade embargo which will severely limits Russia's ability to get basic necessities. To a freezing of all assets which will hurt the oligarchs personally.
In any case you are still trying to excuse Putin's behaviour by selectively citing historical events.
