Russia invaded Ukraine and so we imposed economic sanctions. Should we make those sanctions are strong as possible? It seems to me that we should.
Yet we are sending the Russian regime millions of dollars every day in exchange for oil. To me, it makes no sense. But it is complicated. If we have less oil, gas prices and probably other prices will increase at least until we can adjust.
It is a complicated issue. A article in the Washington Post discussed this a couple days ago. As far as I know, the situation has not changed. The article is worth reading.
