Only if we want to directly enter the war. Ukraine already is at war with Russia, the sanctioning countries are not. There are arguments for attacking Russia (before they can attack us when they are stronger), but I would say that there is currently not a majority in favor of a preventive war in most countries. It would also invalidate the NATO obligations of the rest of the allies, if it's not a defensive war.

That's telling plus Putin hitting up oligarchs for war finds. They must be severely depleted. Drones are a significant factor in both wars overwhelming defense built for single unit rockets. A new world. Add in ai to the drone intelligence and war has been completely transformed.

As a Fallujah veteran and former medic I metaphorically weep for the future when war is totally dehumanized.

Just because US say its okay to Russia doesn't mean Ukraine will stop shooting where it hurt. :P

US Sanctions: A 30-day general license (issued \~March 12-13, 2026, originally expiring April 11) allows countries to buy and offload sanctioned Russian crude and petroleum products that were already on vessels as of March 12. There is no point in increasing new shipments because those were not loaded and/or cannot deliver before the April 11th expiration.
