The Guardian: Western sanctions have not worked and Putin is stronger than ever.
A British newspaper reported that, contrary to Western expectations, despite heavy sanctions against Moscow, the value of the ruble is rising and Putin is stronger than ever, and the sanctions did not work.
In a report written by Simon Jenkins, the English newspaper “Guardian” pointed out the ineffectiveness of Western sanctions against Moscow due to the Ukraine war and wrote that the value of the Russian ruble is increasing and that Russian President Vladimir Putin is stronger than ever. and our sanctions have had opposite results.
In the introduction of this report, it is stated that Western sanctions against Russia are considered the most non-constructive policy in international history. Military aid to Ukraine is justified, but the economic war against Russia has been ineffective and destructive because of its unintended goals.
According to the Guardian, energy prices in the world are rising dramatically, inflation is on the rise, the food supply chain is in chaos, and millions of people are suffering from severe shortages of gas, grain, and fertilizer. It is becoming more powerful.
This report continues that criticizing Western sanctions is like disrespect. Defense analysts are dumbfounded on this issue. Strategic think tanks have been silent in this regard.
The Guardian continued that Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak, who are vying for the post of prime minister in the UK, have pledged tougher sanctions against Russia in a belligerent rhetoric without saying what they were aiming for.
This English newspaper continued, the truth of the sanctions against Russia is that they invite revenge against Moscow. This winter, Putin can freely cut off Russian gas and freeze Europe. He has cut off 80% of the energy supply from important pipelines like Nord Stream 1. World oil prices have risen, and the flow of wheat to Eastern Europe and other foodstuffs from Africa and Asia has almost stopped.
